They release their weekly mixers during the week so make sure you're on their list serve. I was able to get a holiday drink mix that I paired with some liquor I already had. The mix paired really well and each drink would be the equivalent of a $16+ cocktail if I'd had it at most Austin establishments. You can also recycle the bottles they use by placing them outside during your next delivery

With a space so gorgeous you'd swear it was torn from a page in an interior design magazine, it's…read morealmost daunting to step inside. Bright and sunny, wide open with lots of natural light, tasteful hanging planters, and minimalist decor, there's nowhere to hide. It's a place to see and be seen, but not nearly as pretentious as that sounds. They just care about the details and it shows, including the attentive service and well balanced drinks. Though I feel like I should crawl back into the dark, dank dive bars that I know best, it's a gorgeous breath of fresh air for those good hair days. Generous parking lot, easy off the highway, good evening hours. The only thing I'll knock it for is being so far south! Anyone in the neighborhood has better treasure this place, since I won't be able to get out there that often.

I was so excited this was opening and now I've tried it two separate times to see if my 2nd…read moreexperience would be a good one. This entire place feels like a cash grab following the mezcal trend. It's positioned as being a tequila/mezcal spot but their drinks are more basic than cocktails I can order at the airport. When I asked questions about the mezcal they use and offer the bartenders replies were always dealt with either annoyance and limited info or just an "I don't know." Plus it's $$$ you tip on top of the tip they already add but say nothing about? The basic cocktails that are known as Mexican street vendor drinks (not supposed to be $$$) can cost you over $20 alone! Then to be shady about tipping ... cash grab without a good experience. The there's the atmosphere... very limited parking shared with MANY other more busy bars, super loud inside because of no soft surfaces, and the worst part of all... the bench seats are built just tall enough that unless you're super tall, you'll have to sit at the edge of the bench and actively practice good posture. This more than the other things makes me want to leave immediately. You designed a bar to be pretty but in no way functional to its use. It's been a while since my last visit and honestly I chalked all this up to Austin's trend chasing entrepreneurs typical disconnected launch until I had AMAZING cocktails at another new spot that truly impressed with their same priced cocktails that were far far more intricate and creative PLUS they didn't try to con me out of more tip AND their space was warm, and inviting with truly exceptional customer service. That experience reminded me that inflation isn't the only thing making life more expensive ... it's also businesses delivering far less value than promised and demanding we are supremely grateful for their limited effort. If you don't want to leave the neighborhood but you still want a somewhat decent margarita .... it ain't here. Pay half the price at Bodhi's in the same parking lot.

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. We had some spicy chicken from the food truck and fried pickles. They were great. So overall, it's a great place to relax with friends and chill. We liked it and will be back regularly.

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!

Imagine Lala's feels like a chill, comfy neighborhood bar where you can actually enjoy yourself, and the ambiance, and have a conversation with whoever you came with, instead of a tourist clogged beehive? Because BOOM that's Lala's South Pole. I'm not even a big Christmas person, and I am smitten. Charming, quite, festive. It feels like a hidden gem. I probably shouldn't be reviewing it so it can stay that way, but no one like a gatekeeper. Also, absolute baller pizza from Brooklyn Pie Co. I had to really talk myself down from going back the next night just for more pizza. The service is... well what you would expect from a "trendy" Austin dive bar, as in... None, but that's part of the charm kind of? I've actually tried a lot of new pizza places lately and this is what stands out in my mind. Drinks wise? It's a bar. They serve you alcohol. Nothing special, but nothing wrong with it either.
