The stage is out back, and check-in was easy at the bar for wristbands. There's a full bar inside and plenty of outdoor seating, plus a pizza food truck if you want a bite without leaving. Staff were friendly, and the atmosphere made it easy to relax and enjoy the music. Definitely a spot I'd come back to on my own if the lineup looked good.

I have serious mixed feelings about this venue. They get great concerts...but…read more.. They have a tiny parking lot which is OK for smaller shows, but they will charge you $20 to park at bigger shows like Juvenile tonight or Psych Fest. The only other parking option is in the residential streets about 5 minutes walk down the road. But I feel extremely bad for the people in those homes who were there before this venue started doing big concerts. With that said...it used to be a cool little bar with a large covered tent stage and they decided that wasn't big enough. It's also sooooo far South. They charge a 20% "TIP" automatically on every bar purchase. So an IPA was nearly $17. Unless C3 or Live Nation has bought them this is just insane. While this is legal...if it's mandatory, it's not a "tip" under IRS rules -- it's a service charge. That means it belongs to the business, not automatically to the server. That's F'd up and they need to change the language on that.

Do not join here as a tennis member.  Recently, the new ownership group Arcis and the head "tennis…read morepro" Kelly Marshall decided to ruin the tennis courts by painting a million lines everywhere.  The tennis courts are an absolute mess.  Even though members voiced their opposition to pickle ball taking over the tennis courts, our voices were ignored.  Onion Creek went ahead with trying to accommodate "all racquet sports" by littering the courts with pickle ball equipment and the final straw - adding permanent pickle ball lines to the tennis courts.  Tennis players are not respected here.  I'm playing at Grey Rock from now on.

Drifters x PicklePub shares a lot with each other and has a lot to offer on the Menchaca strip. At…read moreDrifter's, you can grab yourself a coffee in the day or a cocktail at night. At PicklePub, pickleball enthusiasts can rejoice as there are two outdoor pickleball courts and a plethora of draft beers on-site. The shared courtyard has plenty of seating and tables, food trucks, a large LED screen perfect for sports and the occasional live band. During the crawfish season, they host weekly crawfish deals where for each drink purchased, it gets you a pound for free! Beezer, the owner of both businesses, made a thoughtful gesture by checking in with each table to see how guests were doing--a warm touch of hospitality that didn't go unnoticed!

The bathrooms are easy to find, outside labeled Banos. The drinks are a bit pricey for the area but it's a nice space right off bar central on South Menchaca. Some beers on tap and specialty drinks. The bartender was friendly and it's very chill. Very Texas with it being outside and strings of light. The band was a spitfire of kinda country but with spice. I'll be back. It's a fun find.

The bridal suite was not only perfect for the bridal party to get ready but also to allow the blushing bride some alone time before the ceremony. The weather cooperated but the event staff were prepared with tents if the ceremony needed to be moved at the last minute. The bathrooms were even stocked with emergency essentials should they be needed. A few of the guests had mobility challenges and the rustic walkways and loose gravel did present a bit of a challenge for some, but otherwise zero complaints.

It's super odd bars around them have entertainment and crowds but not here. Seems like the guests mainly come for pickle ball, yet the stage mainly goes unused.

The space is nice, pet friendly, has plenty of open-air tables, bar options and food trucks. I can see why this is such a cool place to hangout, especially in the summertime. The weather was nice with a cool breeze so we killed a couple of hours just talking and catching up. Overall, I really liked the vibe and look forward to coming back.

The beer list isn't too long, but covers all the bases and the cocktails are good. One disappointment on the cocktails is inconsistencies between bartenders.

There really aren't a ton of fun places like this in South Austin, so if you're in that area, it's definitely worth checking out. They have a few free parking spots, but the larger lot is paid, so carpooling is a good idea. I love that they offer a mix of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, so there's something for everyone. There are also a few food trucks on-site, including Via 313, which is always a win. The space itself is perfect for hanging out, there's a big screen, live music, and even cornhole. It's also dog-friendly, which makes it even better. Overall, it's such a fun, laid-back spot and I'd definitely come back!

Syrup was not needed. It was absolutely delicious! And the portions size was huge! My bacon was cooked to perfection as well as my scrambled eggs. We will be back and bringing friends!

Great addition to South Park Meadows. I ordered biscuits and gravy with scrambled eggs, sausage, loaded grits, and a short stack of bourbon street pancakes. The pancakes were perfect. Great taste and temperature. They are a little heavier than expected but tender and delicious. The loaded grits had great flavor and were just a little cooler than desired. Small complaint is the green onions weren't prepped recently -- they were dried out. Only impacted the presentation. The biscuits and gravy had great flavor but we're barely warm. Still delicious just not hot. Scrambled eggs were cooked very firm. We'll go back. With a little more care from the kitchen this would have been perfect. Still good.
