The group chats were accurate about WR. I'm so impressed by this cute little local joint!…read more We sat on the patio and it was perfect weather. What a gorgeous ambiance. I went for happy hour with another couple but missed it by 30 mins... our wait staff, Mason was very accommodating and attentive. My party shred an app and our sides. My husband and I shared the chicken fried steak, definitely large enough for two. we were all satisfied with the portions and food! Collectively we had: Brisket nachos- must order! Chicken fried steak x2 Creamed corn/spinach Bacon wrapped shrimp -VERY good. Has a hint of horseradish Banana pudding...you must like artificial banana flavors to enjoy this one. Brownie sundae -basic. We each had 2 drinks. The frozen old fashioneds are great! I like the etched ice cubes for non frozen cocktail. Cute little touch. The total was ~$250. Which is very reasonable for 4.

We expected the same level of food as lunch and dinner, but were highly disappointed for brunch!…read more It was disgusting, disorganized, looked dirty and picked over, many items were needing replenishment so lots of waiting, there was no omelet station or anyone supervising the Buffett room. There were no salads, nor the usual cheese, fruit display that you would find at a typical nice brunch, nor bread and pastry options (only cheap Texas Toast that they were pulling out of a bag.) The butter bowl, yikes! It was disgusting! Denny style grape and Apple jelly by Smuckers was the offering. If you like chips and quest or Mexican breakfast things, then you could find that. There were no desserts. It was like a basic Holiday Inn buffet. Sad.

It was one of those meals that felt like old times - great conversation, lots of laughs, and incredible food. I ordered the Farmers Breakfast, and everything was delicious, but I especially took a huge liking to the jalapeño Gouda biscuits. They were absolutely fantastic! My friend ordered the Peach Cobbler French Toast, which looked amazing and was just as delicious. The food, atmosphere, service, and time spent catching up made for a truly memorable brunch. We had an amazing time, and Whiskey Cake was the perfect place to enjoy it.

On a very hot day, the patio is covered but I'm not sure how heat would be. The only issue we experienced were mosquitos - while they could spray/fog beforehand, it's also outside seating so it's nature... We LOVED the life by 1000 berries, which is a mocktail version of their cocktail. We shared appetizers, and would go back if we visited again!

Rude bartenders (3 women) told us they're closed at 9:13..maps says 10pm, but only the bar. Needs…read moreto specify on maps so they don't waste peoples time. I don't say they were rude just because of the closing, but the attitude about it. Happily turning us away. Hardly any people were in there, ratio was more employees waiting around hoping to close & not make $$ but ok Came to another bar downtown ;)

Decided to finally pay a visit to the distillery while I was…read morein town. This is such an awesome spot. The staff is so amazing. Absolutely knowledgeable of the product of the product.

I was very excited to take this tour and have been a longtime supporter of Still Austin. Before the…read moretour began, I purchased drinks and was encouraged to buy a bottle I already planned to purchase because it was close to the 9:00 PM sales cutoff. Unfortunately, the bartender who sold me the bottle failed to note my purchase or communicate it to the other staff. When I later picked up the bottle and informed a different bartender that it had already been purchased, he took the bottle from me and refused to verify the transaction, even after I showed proof of payment from my bank account and asked him to look up the purchase by amount and time. Only after the original bartender was located and confirmed the sale was I allowed to leave with my bottle. The entire situation was embarrassing and completely diminished what should have been a great experience. I have a whiskey review channel and have been a devoted fan of Still Austin. A brand is defined not only by its products but also by how it trains its employees to treat customers. Unfortunately, this experience fell far short of that standard.

How cool is this? Crowded Barrel is funded by whiskey fans. It's done so through an online method…read more So essentially all of the people backing Crowded are owners in a way. The truest sense of crowd funding comes to life and seemingly thriving. Distillery tours are available for $35 and I strongly encourage folks to give them a visit and check out what's going on. The tasting room is cool + rad. It's like spending time with the greatest people you know. Or maybe it's just the great booze that makes it feel that way? Lol, I kid. It's totally a combo of both. They don't just make whiskey, they've got a gin, tequila (a few) and a vodka as well. I'm a big fan of the vodka. Haven't tried the gin yet. This is a Dripping Springs gem.

What a lovely spot on 4th! This whiskey bar has some very strong drinks! My friend ordered an…read moreespresso martini which he said was pretty good. I had the Lavender Bee which was perfection! I usually just need one to start out or finish off the night. Service was very friendly on a Friday night and the place was very crowded. Such a great vibe! It's very moody and dimly lit perfect place to meet friends or a date. The music was okay mostly EDM which did not mesh with the chillness of the place. Parking can be difficult on 4th. I parked in the 405 Colorado garage which is very cheap (5 hrs for $10)

College me would have lived here !! Enjoyed a French 75, my husband enjoyed a smoked Old Fashioned and it was a great place to grab a drink prior to seeing Springsteen at the Moody seated amongst candles , a weird alter of sorts while enjoying some Stevie Wonder as is playing now though some weird NIN or Type O might have been more appropriate

I went to Whisler's and had one of the worst bar experiences I've ever had…read more I had one drink. I was completely sober for all intents and purposes. The bartender claimed I was drunk and cut me off anyway. I was at the bar talking to a girl while waiting to get a drink (the wait was long because the service is very slow, despite the bar not being very busy at all). She was clearly into me, and the bartender kept jumping in trying to talk to her too (instead of doing his job making drinks). He was doing all sorts of things to try and flirt with her and make her laugh: pulling out and showing her buckets of pre mixed cocktails, running and sliding under the bar, etc. She was engaging with both of us , and right in the middle of that, I get cut off out of nowhere. No explanation other than claiming I looked drunk, which I very clearly wasn't. It felt very clear what was going on--he wanted me out of the way. I left and asked the bouncer on my way out if I seemed drunk. This was literally two minutes later. He said no, not at all, and asked me why I would even ask that. I then told him exactly what happened and asked him to let the owner or whoever was in charge know about this extremely unprofessional conduct so they can discipline the bartender. His response was that the bartender has discretion to cut anyone off, and let me know the bartender is supposedly married so he couldn't have been flirting with any of the customers. Well, sounds like his logic is flawed--not only COULD he flirt with his customers, he WAS, and was therefore cheating. I hope his wife finds out. This is perfectly representative of Austin customer service lately and not normal in other places. I was in Tampa for an entire month earlier this year and this would've been unthinkable there. I'm not coming back.

Very cool vibes! Apparently they carry over 900 bottles and sitting at the communal table (which I…read moredid) allow you to see most of them. It was quite fun to be at the table and have conversations with various strangers. However, there are small tables you can sit at as well. I think this place is reservation only. It is below a very good restaurant. Didn't really try their food, but definitely a good selection of liquor!
