I definitely recommend this place and put it on my list to show my out-of-town friends. Only negative thing I noticed was service interaction, even when I said thank you the interaction felt cold.

Such a refreshing experience! It was also a great spot to relax, enjoy some good food and drinks, and watch the game. I would definitely recommend Murray's Tavern, especially for the atmosphere and outstanding service. We'll happily be back!

Service was excellent as there weren't too many patrons on the afternoon that we visited. The decor is cute yet casual. When we're back in Austin, we'll definitely come back!

While the inside area is small, the decorations were amazing (they went all out for a grinch / Christmas theme), and the servers were really friendly. The outside patio is extremely spacious and contains a lot of seating areas for people to enjoy their drinks. When we went, there was an awesome Asian wing food truck that was in place too, and while we didn't try the food, it looked amazing and the people eating it looked like they were enjoying themselves. I would love to come again. This place has a tight homely feel that just so happens to have a bar and you should come and experience it yourself

I like the idea of ordering at the bar and walking outside to enjoy whatever magnificent cocktail they've conjured up. Of course I'm a huge fan of Frank Reynolds so I can't get enough of the Halloween pop-up and the themed drinks for it. We were there with our pesky little fur baby and everyone was so good to him. So understanding about his past abuse, the staff really liked him and made sure he was at ease.

I cant speak too much of the drinks but I appreciated their shot & beer combos/variations (I got the Tito's & Vodka which is a shot of Titos and a Nutrl Vodka seltzer). It looks like they also have a bbq spot that you can get food from but their vegetarian options were not my favorite (I dont want a baked potato with beans). I didnt really take a look at their meat options but Im sure they are better. The parking is also not the best but their website is very forthcoming about that and gives you alternatives including paid valet parking & where to find free street parking nearby.

There are about 8-10 spots right in front and otherwise I have no clue where your park. Most of the seating is outdoor and the time we went there was plenty of shade from the trees and the fans along with the natural breeze made it absolutely beautiful! Seating is sanctioned to deck and gravel with camping chairs w/tables I. The gravel area. Bar inside was clean and easy to order, a 20% gratuity is auto added which I forgot about and tipped an additional 20%, oops. The food there was from Fiasco BBQ and well that was disappointing. See their review for that. If the food was better we would have stayed longer. I got the seasonal sangria and it went down like koolaid, soooo tasty!

Atmosphere | 4/5…read more Loudmouth has a fun, casual atmosphere that fits the restaurant well. It's a nice spot to grab pizza, hang out, and enjoy a meal without anything feeling too formal. Food | 5/5 The Carolina BBQ wings are very good! Easily one of my favorite things on the menu. SOOOO good! I've tried several of their pizzas, and they've all been consistently good. I especially appreciate how balanced the flavors are. The toppings, sauce, and cheese complement each other without anything being overpowering. The crust is another highlight for me. I love a good thin crust, but there's a fine line between thin and cardboard. Loudmouth gets it right! It's thin without being dry or overly crispy, and it still has a nice texture. The tiramisu was good, too. Service | 3/5 My experiences with the service have been mixed. I've had some genuinely pleasant interactions with staff, but I've also had a few experiences that left me uncomfortable. As a black patron I've encountered microsgressions which will not go overlooked. Overall Experience | 4/5

Loudmouth is a casual pizza restaurant that still feels classy so it's perfect for a weekend dinner…read morewith friends or a more casual date night. There's a nice patio area for outdoor seating, they have great happy hour deals, and have live music on Thursdays from 7:00 to 9:00 pm. NOTES: - Reservations: available on OpenTable - Parking: small lot next to the building but free street parking is also available nearby - Happy hour: Monday through Friday until 6:00 pm, Saturday and Sunday from 12:00 to 4:00 pm, and all night every Thursday - Online ordering: available on their website through ToastTab for pickup only THE HIGHS: - I had a reservation for 8:00 pm on a Saturday night, arrived at 7:50 pm, and got seated right away - Service was great and food came out quickly - Everything is very shareable so you can order a lot of different things to try - The homemade ranch is AMAZING! THE LOWS: - The bar was backed up so it took about 15 minutes to get an iced tea - Soft drinks aren't refillable ($4 for a single can of Diet Coke is pretty crazy) THE PRICE: The pricing is reasonable for other similar pizza places in Austin. - Diet Coke ($4) - Iced tea ($4.50) - Italian sandwich ($19) - Big Bad Wolf pizza ($21) - Hot Boy Summer pizza ($21) - Ricotta added to pizza ($4) - Side of ranch ($1) The total was $82.87 after tax ($6.13) but before tip. (We also ordered the warm seeded focaccia for $7 but weren't charged for it) BEST BITES: - Warm seeded focaccia: the whipped honey garlic butter that comes on the side is PHENOMENAL! I could eat it with a spoon! - Italian sandwich: One of my favorite Italian sandwiches ever! The bread is soft but holds up, the spicy capicola and spicy giardiniera add the perfect little kiss of heat, and the marinated mozzarella is thick and delicious! THE VERDICT: This was my first time at Loudmouth and I had a good experience overall. I came excited to try the pizza but was a little underwhelmed... the char from the wood-fired oven is delicious but the actual dough doesn't have much flavor. There are a lot of pizza places I prefer in Austin. HOWEVER, the Italian sandwich was phenomenal and I would come back just for that! Overall, I'd recommend Loudmouth to others but would suggest trying some of the menu items other than just pizza.

I will say I was blown away by how many families were there with young kids! There's a play area outside, so there were tons of kids running around having a great time.

The mozzarella sticks were a great addition, and their basil ranch was truly chef's kiss. Is it my favorite pizza in Austin? No. But did I have a great experience, enjoy my meal, and leave wanting to come back? Absolutely!!

Seeing them caught me completely off guard! That's definitely more of a personal preference than a criticism, so if you love traditional Caesar salads, you'll probably appreciate the authenticity. Overall, I really enjoyed my meal. I'll definitely be back for another Little Stinker, and next time I'm saving room to try one of their desserts!

Extremely disappointing service and an experience that left us feeling discriminated against…read more We had been at this bar for about an hour and had already purchased multiple rounds of drinks. As closing time approached, we went to order one last round, which is a completely normal part of going to a bar. Unfortunately, what should have been a simple interaction turned into an extremely uncomfortable experience. The female bartender, a Caucasian woman with black hair in a ponytail wearing a black tank top, had an attitude from the start. While chatting with her coworkers instead of attending to customers, she was approached by my friend, who politely asked for three Mexican candy shots. Her response was, "I guess," with a clear attitude. When my friend asked if she didn't want to make them, she bluntly responded, "I don't." She then refused to make our drinks. A second bartender, a Caucasian man wearing a Texas tank top and a hat, ended up making the shots. When we questioned the unnecessary attitude, he had no explanation and offered no comment. He could clearly see that we were upset, so he proceeded to take a shot with us and say, "Cheers." We never offered to buy him a shot, and taking shots with customers while on the clock raises another concern entirely. What makes this experience particularly troubling is that we observed white patrons being served without any apparent issues or similar attitudes. Meanwhile, we were met with hostility and an outright unwillingness to serve us. As people of color, it's difficult not to question whether our skin color played a role in how we were treated. The difference in treatment left us feeling singled out, unwelcome and discriminated against. This wasn't about being upset over a bar closing or being denied drinks after last call. We understood that closing time was approaching. We had been there for an hour, had already purchased multiple rounds, and were simply trying to order one last round while the bar was still serving customers. There was absolutely no reason for the bartender to speak to us that way or openly refuse to serve us. If you don't want to work in the service industry, perhaps it's time to find another line of work. Basic courtesy and professionalism should be the bare minimum, regardless of who walks through the door. Management needs to take this incident seriously. If this establishment genuinely has a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination, then there should be meaningful accountability, not just a slap on the wrist. Customers should never have to question whether they'll be treated differently because of the color of their skin. We came here to enjoy ourselves, not to be made to feel unwelcome. This experience has left a lasting impression, and based on how we were treated, I would not feel comfortable returning.
