I really like St. Elmo's Brewing and the pours they put out. Today (2/14/26) was my first visit to this location for their dog Valentine's Day party. This day started out drizzly in the morning but became a full-fledged rainstorm in the afternoon (of course when we were ready for the party). Didn't let the rare Austin rainstorm stop our guy, Sir Benjamin Doolittle from missing out on a fun time. It was a great gathering with Austin Pets Alive! holding an adoption fair (a few dogs left with new humans while we were there), Tomlinson's, Chewy Vet Care, & more. I had a lavender spritz mocktail that was super refreshing and flavorful. The boyfriend had a cherry sour pour, and we shared a frozen boozy coffee, while B-Boy enjoyed treats provided by the brewery, and a pup cup from Chewy. The service, drinks, and environment were spot-on, welcoming vibes you expect from a brewery. We're fans. Had a blast!

My fiancé and I checked out this new St. Elmo location for lunch, and we were so pleasantly surprised! Right when we arrived, it was nice to see so much free parking in the lot. Heading over to St. Elmo, we saw they had several food trucks out front, a big open space with picnic tables and play areas for kids and dogs, and an outdoor market that was happening at the time. We headed inside to see what the seating situation was like and easily found a spot. They were playing the Texas-Oklahoma football game on 2 tvs and a projected screen, which was nice. You could tell that most of the people there were specifically there to watch the game. The tables are really long and communal. Nevertheless, there is plenty of space for everyone. There are smaller additional tables where families with kids were sitting, too. We grabbed beers at the counter before heading back outside to order food. I ended up getting 2 tacos from the Pueblo Viejo truck, and my fiancé got a sandwich from Spicy Boys. There was also a shaved ice truck, but we don't get any this time around. The beers were delicious, and so was the food. I loved the space inside, as well. Tons of plants and cool decor, lots of tables, and a very clean and updated space. I like how they also serve coffee and drinks in the mornings. We will definitely be back!

I'm always a huge fan of St. Elmo's. I was thrilled to find out there was a location up north. The beers are the same standard as the ones down south. The vibes are great lots of indoor and outdoor seating. They have solid food trucks if you want to grab a bite to eat. The staff is super friendly and helpful. They have great recommendations depending on your taste and profile. They have a lot of parking and more parking near the space. The only reason for one star down. I had this weird instance that connected me to a WiFi network automatically once I walked in. This could totally not be on them, but thought it was weird I walked in and it connected by itself but didn't connect to anything.

Pretty solid brewery with a wide selection. Parking can be limited in the main lot if this place gets packed especially with an event. We stumbled across a labubu event an it was swarming with kids........and adults getting their keychains customized. The seating inside is smaller but it's pretty nice. Food truck options are more limited to tacos and spicy boys chicken.

St Elmo brewing is such a gem ! I love this quaint brewery and the chill vibe. There's indoor seating and outdoor. There's a couple good trucks. Spicy chicken and a Mexican food truck. There's plenty of beer options. I wish there were more mocktail options. I tried two of the mocktail and they were both very tart and acidic. Not a fan. We had spicy boys for dinner and ordered: * wings: 3/5 the flavor was ok and I wish the wings were more crispy. * naan and panang curry: curry was sweeter side 2/5 * tots: 3/5 crispy but super oily * our friends got the chicken nuggets and I think that was better than the wings. Same seasoning and flavor. 4/5 We went on a Friday night and were able to get a table outside and inside. Family friendly. Ppl brought their kids and this kids threw a ball and knocked our drinks over and got our clothes wet. The kids apologized but the parents didn't. SMH. Do I recommend this place? Yes limited eats but nice place to come hang out with friends.

My friend and I came here to participate in the Dia de los Muertos event. We had come from a different Dia de los Muertos event closer to Downtown in East Austin near the library branch but wanted something a little more different. While unfortunately we didn't find that at St Elmo Brewing (Springdale), we still had a lovely time drinking the unique brews and hiding from the rain.

I went to several breweries while on a boys trip to Austin. St Elmo was my favorite of all. The brewery is located in a very cool location. I wish I could go back on a Friday or Saturday evening. St Elmo has a lot of good beer options. I got a flight to sample some of them. The cream ale was my top choice. They have a couple Pilsners and lagers as well.

Beautiful new St. Elmo taproom. First we started with an IPA then discovered a delicious frozen delight. Staff were upbeat, knowledgeable, and extremely pleasant. Finally, there were two amazing food truck choices Pueblo Viejo and Spicy Boys. We loved our visit! Had a great chill day enjoying cold beverages and cauliflower nugs! We'll definitely be back!

THE BIG: New St. Elmo location in the Springdale area (north east) of Austin. Big parking lot, that gets filled up quickly with tons of outdoor space and a brew hall indoor space that is packed. THE BLACK AND WHITE: So glad this is close to my house ~2mins that have probably one of my favorite beers (Carl). Ordering beer is the standard line to order and they have some pretty gnarly specials here for Oktoberfest that includes the steins of the Carl and the Oktoberfest beer. You got your regular food trucks here as well (thank goodness for spicy bois). The combo of beer + fried chicken sandwich is overpowered. Wifi is fast, so if you need to do work, this could be a place to do it. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Regular pricing with the South Austin location here at St. Elmo. ~$6-$8 for beers here and you won't be disappointed. Welcome to the North East side!

I love St Elmo Brewing. Look I'm biased, their namesake beer is Carl and I grew up hating my name because I never could find souvenirs with my name on it. Carlos, Carly and Carol but rarely a Carl. I love the original location so much that when I moved to Austin, I chose South Austin to be close to it. Over the years, my love for St Elmo has never waned. I've been part of the beer club for two years now and will keep it going for however long they keep doing it. There's always plenty of beer on tap so you're bound to find something you'll like. My favorites tend to be the lighter beers and the sours, and nothing hits like a cold Carl on a hot day. This location also has a coffee menu and non alcoholic beverages, making it more like the day to night spots where you can work from. The new location is on Springdale road northeast of the original location. I was able to come today a bit before the soft opening on Friday because I'm part of the beer club. There's not a lot around there but the new location is beautiful with indoor and outdoor seating, a small kids area, two food trucks (Spicy Boys, and Pueblo Viejo), and a decent size parking lot. The space is really nice, it almost feels like a boutique hotel or restaurant with the terracotta tiled bar. The same muralist who did the colorful artwork at the original location and some previous merchandise and beer did a large one inside the new location. I thought the inside would be bigger but most of the interior space is taken up for the actual brewing, which you can see into. Being so close to the original location though, I probably won't find as many opportunities to come here but very happy for the team and a new location and community that can enjoy it.

This is St. Elmo's second location located just a short walk from 290 on Springdale and occupies a building which was formerly a strip joint. The building has been very nicely renovated with all the amenities. You can see the entire brewing operation through the windows inside. Plenty of parking and lots of space both inside and outside to sit at. Best of all they are unveiling three new beers (see photo below) which should get you through the door. But wait, there's more, they have additional taps for beers that they make just for the taproom only. No guest taps yet. Other drink choices include some wine, NA beer and a nice coffee bar. Feeling hungry? They hope to have three food trucks on site, but currently they have the Spicy Boys chicken truck and are adding the Pueblo Viejo truck. Spicy boys truck is credit/debit only no cash (tip screen also), can't speak for the other truck. Great place to kick back and enjoy their fresh made beers.

Beautiful new patio
Rusty P.

St Elmo - congrats on the expansion! North Austin has lost too many breweries, and this is a very welcome addition. Great beers, great patio, and great food trucks (currently Spicy Boys and Pueblo Viejo). I miss 'Side Carls', but I see those $2 Monday Carls...

I love this place…read more I was obsessed 512 Pecan Porter Way back when I didn't even know breweries were a destination for relaxation. When my fella and I started going out this was a place he enjoyed visiting when we were in the area. What am I talking about, he still loves coming here even if I don't imbibe. Every time we stop by, we're greeted with the best and friendliest service. The grounds are always well maintained and the vibe is chill and relaxing. Everyone is also nice and in good spirits. Great place to get a drink and relax.

Starting on the lighter side of the beer spectrum from here we had the (512) Beer: 30 which is an American Light Lager. In the flavor profile for this beer you can find a natural sweetness, a crisp and clean presence as well. The beer was light bodied and very easy to drink more than one of! Moving to darker beer territory and the one that I liked maybe just a little bit better (but it was neck and neck) was the (512) Pecan Porter. This was a fun porter as it was on the nutty side of things as the name indicates. All the flavors blended in very nicely. Flavor features in this beer to find is sweetness, a coffee presence and of course the pecan flavor. The beer is nice and smooth and creamy in body. Two good beers from two different beer types made this beer exploration a little bit more well rounded.

I said I'm sorry but my husband just got some and he insisted I'm mistaken and looked more annoyed. He sent me away. My husband asked and his response was "are you with that woman in the scrubs?" And was annoyed yet again. What did I do to him to piss him off? Anyway. Our friend went up then and asked the original guy who got it for us. THERE WAS NO MISTAKE.

Flavor highlights with this beer are grainy, crispness and a bit funky. The beer is very easy to drink due to this nice, mellow flavor profile and is light bodied which makes this beer highly enjoyable and appropriate while enjoying the Texas warmth.
