    Burger under 5$ thick juicy big boys. I didn't realize how big it was so I had ordered an extra patty. Oops! They have a condiment bar for the food you order at the counter. You also order your drinks at the bar, there's no server, but there is free popcorn near the entrance so help yourself. Everyone I encountered there was very nice, even the bar patrons. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but if you're just looking for a place to watch the game and throw back a few with friends and munch then this place ain't so bad. My drink cup did have lipstick stain on it so that was disgusting. It's my only complaint.

    The bartenders were friendly and fast. Beer was cold. The fact that it was St Louis themed was bonus as we have spent a lot time in that city and brought back some memories.

    Peel and eat shrimp. Yummy! And only .39 a shrimp.

    This place was awesome. I walked there from the Nissan dealership while my car was being worked on- best find ever! The food was delicious and insanity cheap. The bartenders and cool were polite and made sure I had what I needed. There is also free popcorn! They have cardinals stuff up and plenty of TVs for sports. I'll be back for sure! This is the perfect spot to relax, grab a filling, Delia meal, food drinks and a very low tab!!!

    Great place for a mocktail. I paid $3 instead of $13. There is pleeeeenty of seating and service is immediate, at least on a Tuesday at 8pm during the FC game. I came here to catch up with friends and watch the games. They have great special thru the week. Will def go back.

    Popcorn on the house!

    Had me at the free popcorn! Looking a Milwaukee Bucks bar to watch the playoff game and a Reddit feed said this was Bucks bar. TV's galore! On Wednesday's gamers are there playing Smash Brothers and also streaming on Twitch. I'm no gamer, but thought this was cool! Chicken wings are good. Just grilled wings. The service was exceptional for me. Although it closed at 11 p.m., they allowed me to stay and watch the playoff game as it went into overtime. I'll be back even though the Bucks wasted the season. P.S. This is a Steelers bar if you're into the NFL.

    I've been a regular patron of Bon Aire for almost four years now. The bartenders are fantastic, the vibes are immaculate, but unfortunately I will now be taking my business elsewhere . Some Mensa candidate decided that it would be a good idea to move the pool table from the perfect location to the corner next to the bathroom surrounded by large tables. The tables are less than a foot away from the pool table.... Fix it.

    Went with some friends last night to watch the austin fc away game vs lafc. Solid watch party atmosphere with sound on which was nice. I had a spicy marg that was ok, my friends wife got the old fashioned which could probably be skipped next time. Beer is likely the way to go. Drink prices were good though. Food prices are quite low. We had one of each of the kabobs and wings and all were great. Also had the toasted ravioli and would like to try the brat next time.

    My boyfriend and I have been here a few times now. We love it! The food is tasty, good quality, and cheap. I don't eat meat, so I'm glad there's a few options for me. My boyfriend is glad the burger costs $4 (every day of the week). We've been on different nights of the week and can always find a good table. The staff help create a calm, friendly, and fun environment to make you feel very welcomed. They have popcorn for free and plenty of drink options for everyone. Definitely worth a try! We are glad we are a short drive here!

    We came in for the burger, as I had heard great things. You order at the back counter and pick up there as well. You need to pay separately at the food counter and the bar, so know ahead you will have 2 tabs. But the food was decent. A regular burger. Nothing special. Very affordable. You'll pay extra to add bacon, and cheese, basically anything. But even then it's still affordable. The burger is chargrilled, not my favorite, but was okay overall. They have a condiment bar in the back so you can pick and add the toppings you like. Overall 4 stars for speed and price, and friendly staff, and decent on tap selections at the bar. But probably won't become my "go to" burger spot. We went on a Monday and as soon as the game started they cranked it unnecessarily loud for the small crowd that was there.

    Lots of TVs, and the burger hits the spot just right. If you lived close this would be the local spot to start frequenting.

    I know it is a dine in only restaurant my question is is someone watching the door if you try to sneak your food and take it to your car?

    We served all of our food in paper boats. What you do with your food after that is totally up to you! We don't offer any to go packaging however, so no bags, foil, plastic wrap etc. Thanks for asking the question! Cheers!

    Is the Peel N Eat Shrimp Good?

    Yes! The shrimp are served cold, like shrimp cocktail. They're also good dipped in hot sauce. You buy per piece and you can buy as much as you'd like!

    Smoking or non-smoking?

    I believe it is non smoking not sure only been there one time

    Do they like Kentucky Wildcat basketball? Looking for a place that supports the team and will play the games with sound.

    They will play it with sound - technically it's a Steelers bar during NFL season, other than that they will accommodate anything else you want. Free popcorn!

For reasons that make no sense to any experienced summer festival-goer, the Q2 powers-that-be decided to make this a "no re-entry" event, meaning that attendees are basically locked in the stadium with very few options for relief from the heat. Thank heaven for PointsBet Sports Bar! PointsBet Austin is located inside of Q2 stadium on the north end near the Zebra Gate, up some stairs just to your right as you enter the gate. They have cold air-conditioning, at least one phone recharging station, a few table games, seating for at least 50 people, and standing room for a couple hundred others. Plus, there's a huge horseshoe bar serving plenty of canned and mixed beverages. The whole north wall is floor-to-ceiling windows, providing plenty of natural light. Lastly, there are 18 flatscreens around the walls showing various sporting events and during our concert, a couple were streaming a live view of the concert stage. As expected, prices were "high" (like everything else in Austin these days), but they were in line with pricing available at the other beverage stands outside in the stadium, so we didn't pay any more than we would have out there for the same drink. According to their website, PointsBet opens 3 hours before soccer matches on regular Q2 game days, and it's one of the few air-conditioned places where non-VIP attendees can get a break from the goings-on outside.

If you don't know it's there, it's easy to miss. Stepping inside feels like walking into a stylish, oversized living room. A sleek bar lines one side of the space, while comfortable modern living room furniture occupies the center of the room. The atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between chic sophistication and laid-back fun, with clean architectural lines, modern décor, and dim lighting that creates an inviting ambiance. During our visit, we learned that the longtime bartender had recently moved on and been replaced by Sydney, who was absolutely delightful. When she discovered we were celebrating my friend's birthday, she rallied everyone at the bar and throughout the lounge area to sing "Happy Birthday." The gesture was unexpected, heartfelt, and instantly made the evening feel special. As fate would have it, another guest was celebrating a birthday as well, so the entire group enthusiastically sang for her too. The bar clearly has a loyal following, as several regulars were gathered throughout the evening...a testament to the welcoming atmosphere that keeps people coming back. Syndey crafted custom cocktails for both my friend and me, working with only two instructions: tequila for her and vodka for me. The results were refreshing, creative, and expertly crafted. What could have been just another night out became a memorable birthday celebration thanks to the warmth, hospitality, and personal touches at W XYZ Bar. For that, I'm truly grateful.

He provided some good recommendations on cocktails. I was surprised to see the number of cocktails on the menu. I decided to go with the Freshen Up while my friend went with the Thin Mint Cookie. My drink had cucumber syrup in it. I'm a sucker for cucumber so I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, I didn't care for this drink. It was so mint forward from the creme de mint that it over powered the drink. I felt like I was drinking mouthwash. My friend enjoyed her drink and said it tasted like a Thin Mint Girl Scout cookie in a glass. Though I didn't care for my cocktail, it wouldn't stop me from returning to try a different drink. I'll be sure to avoid any cocktails with creme de mint in the future.

Heaven was the lead on the day of the party, and she was fantastic--warm, helpful, and always making sure everything ran smoothly. Everyone we encountered was so kind and welcoming. Cale was our server, and he truly went above and beyond. We kept him very busy with a party of 25, but he handled it all with a great attitude. He was hardworking, personable, and just an incredibly nice guy. The food and drinks were amazing. I only wish I had been able to eat more myself, but all of our guests raved about everything! Most importantly, my husband was genuinely surprised, and everyone had a wonderful time. Catarina, the general manager, followed up with me afterward to make sure I was happy with the service and how everything went. She was amazing as well, and I truly appreciated her taking the time to personally check in with me. The atmosphere was fun and lively, and the entire event was exactly what I had hoped for. I highly recommend Culinary Dropout for a private event--especially working with Tra, Heaven, Cale, and Catarina. We will definitely be back, although next time it may just be for a relaxed afternoon to watch a game, enjoy the food and drinks, take in the great atmosphere, and give Tra, Heaven, and Cale a much-needed break from my party-planning craziness!
