Figured it was a local dive bar but really didn't know what to expect. Everyone was really nice. The bartender was friendly and the local who came in around the same time as us was also very friendly. We also happened to come in during happy hour so our round of 4 beers was super cheap! We played some pool, hung out and made it back to the airport for the second pickup all very efficiently. Looking at the other reviews it looks like it can get really lively other parts of the day. If you are looking for a dive bar or roadhouse, this is a solid option.

Finally after days of emulating the illusion of an atmosphere for tourists, I had the opportunity to stop by. This place is an actual Texas Roadhouse with all the charming intellectuals and authentic environment you could hope for. I'd rather be here than anywhere in "modern" Austin. Do yourself a favor and tell them I sent you. It's a taste of the real Texas we all hope we can find on our journeys.

Absolutely incredible experience at the Concert Dome in Austin! We saw the Taylor Swift Strings…read moreshow, and it completely blew us away. The atmosphere was immersive and unique, unlike any concert setup we've been to before. One thing that really stood out was how easy everything was logistically. Parking was smooth and convenient (a huge plus), and the dome itself is fully air-conditioned, which made the whole experience comfortable even with a big crowd. The only heads-up: if you're someone who struggles with motion sickness, you might want to take precautions. The immersive visuals and environment can be a bit intense at times. Overall, it was a 10/10 experience and we'd absolutely go back again!

As we arrived, we were given a couple of drink tickets to use at Austin Beerworks - Sprinkle Valley (they share a parking lot) and after grabbing drinks we went to our seats, which were comfy recliners that go all of the way to a lie flat position. They also gave each person a pack of chocolates to go with the theme. We will definitely go back for more shows.

I like the idea of ordering at the bar and walking outside to enjoy whatever magnificent cocktail they've conjured up. Of course I'm a huge fan of Frank Reynolds so I can't get enough of the Halloween pop-up and the themed drinks for it. We were there with our pesky little fur baby and everyone was so good to him. So understanding about his past abuse, the staff really liked him and made sure he was at ease.

While the inside area is small, the decorations were amazing (they went all out for a grinch / Christmas theme), and the servers were really friendly. The outside patio is extremely spacious and contains a lot of seating areas for people to enjoy their drinks. When we went, there was an awesome Asian wing food truck that was in place too, and while we didn't try the food, it looked amazing and the people eating it looked like they were enjoying themselves. I would love to come again. This place has a tight homely feel that just so happens to have a bar and you should come and experience it yourself

It was full of hospitality from the staff wine and beer was priced well, and the feel of a cozy spot for live music was amazing. We apologized to all our friends the next day for not inviting them...and the only reason we didn't is because we didn't know wha to expect. Now we do! This is a date-night MUST!

This place is an Austin institution and one of the best places in the city to experience live music. This historic venue has been a local hangout for great music since the 1950s. The club was dimly lit with lots of stickers, graffiti, neon signage, paintings and interesting artifacts. While it has been a long time since I have been to the Continental club, it still felt truly Austin and very unpretentious. In the Continental Club you are literally I feet away from the live music. A dog was sleeping on stage, which made the place feel homey. The club is small and intimate, exuding a super personal persona. In addition, the sound quality is excellent for such a small venue. Tonight we listened to Hot Club Cowtown...they sounded folksy and a bit country western yet enjoyable to listen to. Folks were boot scooting, so maybe more country western. Mike the doorman was super personable and helpful. He happily provided the WIFI password and was super engaging. In addition, it is important to note the cover was free until 9 pm. The crowd was a mix bag...locals, tourists, and musicians who love live music. Austin is affectionately known as the "Live Music Capitol of the World". Great music...great time!

Def a great little spot for outdoor concerts…read more Not sure why more acts don't come thru here - it's smaller and more manageable than Stubbs and it has very nice bathrooms. We've seen the Strumbellas here twice and truly don't know why more indie acts don't choose this spot over Stubbs. The stage itself is small but the sound system is great and while I don't LIKE it, I definitely understand why they charge for their elevated back bar area (deemed premium seating, at $40 a seat, you get a reserved spot to park it for your event and a great view of the stage). On site there's a hot dog stand and for sure this guy has his supply and demand system down. He smartly uses a fan to waft the mouth-watering aroma of grilled dogs all throughout the venue. Vegetarians need not respond but I would love to find any meat loving person who can go an entire concert here without buying a dog...I'm waiting lol Seriously though, for $10 the dogs are juicy, smothered in good stuff and they absolutely SLAP. Parking sucks but that's anywhere downtown. Street parking if you're lucky, otherwise, they do have an event parking deal with a fairly close parking garage.

We quickly went through security and got our tickets scanned. You can see from pretty much everywhere and the sound was good!
