For my 500th review, I present to you my favorite hang out in Central Texas that is next to my…read morefavorite barbecue spot in Central Texas. This is a family run establishment. It has been open longer than I have been alive. This is a very local hang out with many very close regulars. But they don't bite. As I am moderately amused by most things in life, I like the chill ambiance. Rustic with operational doors, soap dispenser and hand towel machine for the ladies restroom. Yes, that's a big deal. Things to know: 1) Beer only but.... 2) BYOLiquor and get charged a fee for it? Or there's soft drinks you can purchase? I have not really ever figured that out. 3) There is nothing over $4 and there is a Thirsty Thursdays discount. 4) The jukebox plays everything but be careful what you pick! Some songs just shouldn't be played here. 5) There is one pool table and it does get used. 6) They do gladly accept cash but you can pay by credit card. 7) If you're looking for barbecue, it's a tan building to the right of Honeycutt's as you're looking in from Airport. 8) You can eat your barbecue here. But you still have to go get it yourself, lazy. 9) Don't piss off the owner or the bartender. If you don't know. You better ask somebody! Or just try it out!

We had the Iriahman Pizza, chips, and a Beer Cheese and Mushroom burger. The pizza is my wife's favorite, with tangy sauerkraut and a tasty, thin, well-toasted crust. My 18-year-old said the burger was pretty good, which is a resounding endorsement. The rock star of the meal was the chips and beer cheese. The cheese is delicious, and the chips are crisp, fresh, and strong enough to pair with a big scoop of cheese. The place has a super cool feel right from the start. We'll be back here again!

The bartender keeps turning the music down whenever she doesn't like what's playing, even when the customers are enjoying it. It kills the vibe and makes it feel like the place is run for her preferences instead of the guests'. A good pub should be about everyone having a good time, not just one person behind the bar. Hopefully management takes notice and brings the fun back. And its a Saturday night!!! People are not staying because of it

I ordered the three meat combo and the jalapeño cheese sausage was phenomenal. Bad Next: The brisket was mostly dry and not flavorful compared to other bbq places around. The pulled pork was fatty and not in the good way. The sides seemed to be store bought, for example the green beens were definitely canned and the potato salad was store bought and premade. The prices were a bit high for the quality of the food but portions were decent I guess. If I came back it would be to try a burger, but with a price of $17 a piece I will not be back.
