    the fifth element
    Leah G.

    thank you jose for a great time at little drinks! I ordered the vaya con dios, judgement day, and the fifth element on their summer menu. definitely worth the experience if you're visiting and it's a nice everyday happy hour option if you're an austinite. the bill came out to $57 which isn't bad for three flavorful drinks, a shot, and two little corn dogs for a party of one. i'll definitely be back!! p.s. I came back and tried the mars attack, thanks again jose!

    I visited Little Drinks Lounge during a short trip to Austin, Texas. The atmosphere was very inviting and the staff was incredibly kind. The bartender, Sam, was kind, attentive, and informative! He made me a drink based on my preferences and it was very delightful, he also refilled my water whenever it was empty! I had a great time here and recommend checking it out!

    Well, welcome Little Drinks lounge to South Austin as I know you are the kind and cool little brother of older brother, Drinks Lounge (East Cesar Chavez area). I welcome you with open arms and all smiles as this spot is definitely worth coming in to have a cocktail, beer on draft, and be sure to pair it with a hot thin crust NY-style pizza from Pedroso's Pizza trailer! This spot is probably the darkest bar in the South Austin area with their black out crushed velvet curtains, cushiony dark green & black booths, and super cute pink neon signs - which is all a great things for a bar especially on hot summer days when you just want to drink in a dark cool place. You're the coolest little brother for sure and I am so excited to have you in the neighborhood. Came in with my best friend to try out their happy hour menu on a Friday afternoon and we were pleasantly surprised how low-key the vibes are here + the great happy hour specials they have. On week days from 5:00PM - 7:00PM they have $2 Lonestar, $2 PBR, $2 Miller Lite, 1/2 price pints of beer (they have about 8-10 local drafts), $5 Old Fashions, and $10 pizzas were on special when we came in. We definitely took advantage of the $2 beers and got lost in conversation while watching others get a game or two on the all black out pool table. Every day Little Drinks has a special deal on cocktails and drinks and will reward you handsomely on Sunday/Monday/Tuesday Industry nights with some great shot specials. Be sure to ask the bartenders or check out their signage on the bar tops. The gender neutral restrooms are selfie-worthy so be ready to want to take a picture of yourself with the album artwork that is plastered all over the walls from ceiling to waist level. I especially loved the prep/extra mirror space between the restrooms with the coolest Support Your Girl Gang neon pink sign. Grab your girlfriends and get ready to post your gang in front of it. Be sure to grab a photo from the photo booth, where you will also find the 2nd pink neon sign above it, so that you can add your pic to the others who frequently come to Little Drinks. Plenty of space and picnic tables outside in front for fresh air, outdoor hangs, and zooming car watching up and down Congress Ave. It does fill up outside pretty fast, especially as the night goes on, but there is plenty of standing room and seats to hang out on as well. Parking was super easy for us (street parking up and down Alpine Rd- the road that is a huge hill) but also spots right in front of the storefronts directly off of S. Congress + free parking in the retail spaces right behind Little Drinks in the condo, The Davis, area. I am definitely going to make sure to tell my friends and coworkers to join me for a week day happy hour as I dig the vibes and really appreciated the swift service from the bar staff. Looking forward to coming back this week!

    Awesome charming spot. Had the pleasure of swinging by during my weekend trip to Austin. By luck, I happened to be served by the owner herself. Friendly, personable, and held awesome conversation. Her old fashioned was not bad at all! They were playing movies on their projector screen, added a nice odd sense of security, entertainment, and distraction. The bar was very close to where I was staying and was a perfect spot to chill after new years eve night. The interior was cozy, on the darker side, I wouldn't call it a dive bar, but definitely what I look for when I'm in a more low-key vibe.

    Finding places like Little Drinks Lounge should be easy in Austin but apparently it is no longer the norm to have a bar with simple options and drink specials that is very affordable, this place is ideal for the hot summer in Austin where you just want to enjoy a refreshing afternoon with some Frozen Margaritas or their famous little drink combo, the place is cozy and cool inside with very good vibes and very friendly bartenders, the outside space is large and with enough tables, definitely a place to hang out with friends and have a good time. Encontrar lugares como Little Drinks Lounge debería ser fácil en Austin pero al parecer ya no es la norma tener un bar con opciones simples y especiales en bebidas que se ajustan a los bolsillos de muchos, este lugar se me hace ideal para el verano caluroso en Austin donde solo quieres disfrutar de una tarde refrescante con unas Frozen Margaritas o su famoso little drink combo, el lugar es acogedor y fresco en el interior con muy buenas vibras y con bartenders muy amables, el espacio exterior es grande y con suficientes mesas, definitivamente un lugar para frecuentar con los amigos y pasar un rato agradable.

    spicy paloma was delightful to say the least! typically wouldn't get a frozen drink but it was recommended to me and i enjoyed a lot! went in the middle of the day it was empty but the service was kind and quick with the drinks so they get a gold star from me lol. really enjoyed the layout of the place and i look forward to coming back to explore it deeper :)

    Cheese pizza

    Awesome service. Outstanding. The nicest chill patio and relaxed vibe. When i went the halloween decor was out and festive. I had the cheese pizza with truffle oil and it was excellent. I loved this place.

    Great little dive atmosphere, bartenders are great and the cocktails are amazing. Great place for a chill night cap.

    Cousin day continued over here. We got the Mimosa Bucket for $10 which ended at 7 pm. My cousins got cranberry juice and I got pineapple juice. I also got the soft pretzel minus mustard. It was served hot and fresh the way I like it. I loved the atmosphere and was able to take pictures on the stage behind the gold curtain. I also loved all the neon lights.

    Mezcal pineapple- so good!

It is a fun spot to experience Austin's live music scene in a laid-back, authentic atmosphere. The venue has a great neighborhood feel, with plenty of character and a vibe that makes it easy to settle in and enjoy the night. The live performances bring the space to life, and it's a great place to grab a drink, listen to talented musicians, and experience a classic Austin hangout. I went here recently with a group to watch John Gaar and band. There were plenty booth seats available to accommodate our large group. The experience was very intimate being so close to the band and immersed in the music. Whether you're a local looking for a favorite music spot or visiting Austin and want a taste of the city's soulful side, C-Boy's is worth checking out.
