Had such a great experience at The Dugout in Cedar Park! The drinks were amazing and the service was even better. Our waitress/bartender Ashley was absolutely wonderful--super friendly, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of the entire time. One of my favorite things when going out is when you can actually connect with your server and feel like you're talking to a friend instead of it just being another transaction, and Ashley was exactly that! She was so personable, easy to talk to, and genuinely made our time there so much more enjoyable. I can't wait to come back and hopefully see Ashley behind the bar again soon! Great drinks, great atmosphere, and even better service. read more

I think I need to be rolled out of The Dugout after that meal. This was our first time here and they absolutely crushed it. We started with the garlic knots and the Caprese appetizer, and both disappeared way faster than they should have. I ordered the Double Header and my wife went with the Spinach Alfredo pizza topped with chicken and bacon. Every single bite was incredible. The atmosphere was awesome, there were TVs everywhere to catch whatever game you wanted to watch, and the whole place just had a great vibe. A huge thank you to Vanessa for taking such great care of us. Our food took a little longer than we expected, but she kept us updated the entire time, checked on us often, and made sure we never felt forgotten. Great communication makes all the difference, and she made our first visit a fantastic experience. We will absolutely be back. Thanks again, Vanessa. You knocked it out of the park! read more

My husband and I have been going to this neighborhood spot regularly. It has quickly become one of our favorites. The food is consistently delicious!! Especially the meatballs, garlic knots, wings, and chicken tenders. The pizza is excellent and even the salads have been fresh and really well done. What really makes The Dugout stand out is the people. Sandy and Barrett have created such a welcoming atmosphere and you can tell they genuinely care about the experience. The staff - Katie, Cameron, Issac, AJ, and Connor are always friendly, attentive and make it a fun place to be. Definitely worth checking out!!! read more

The Dugout sits in the former home of the Dig Pub, which was among the first craft beer spots to open in the 613 many moons ago. Sadly, as Cedar Park grew up and became filled with craft beers, cocktails, and decent food, the Dig Pub wasn't able to stand out among the competition and shuttered. From its ashes however, has risen what may seem like a pretty average sports bar that is actually well worth a visit. Yes, seating in the main bar area is limited but there's plenty of room in the back and there's also plenty on the menu from Chicago style dogs to three thickness variations of pizza. Lots of screens, friendly staff, and reasonable prices make this a solid game day (or night) dining option. read more

Great place to grab a beer and an awesome pizza. Good and fast service. Went on a Friday after doing some shopping. read more

We needed a late night snack and had the wings and fries. Soooo good! Lemon pepper and jerk flavored. The jerk seasoning was perfect. Not hot. My favorite. Can't wait to have it again. read more

My partner and I came here in February for date night. When we arrived, seating was pretty limited, so I ended up on this random stool they pulled from the back and placed at the end of the bar. Not ideal, but we rolled with it. What stood out immediately was the staffing setup: three bartenders behind the bar, but only one server covering the entire floor. So service moved at a crawl. Not because the server wasn't trying -- he was hustling -- but the structure itself made everything slower than it needed to be. We ordered mixed drinks and the meatballs, and honestly, the meatballs were the highlight of the night. Three perfectly baked meatballs sitting in marinara, topped with mozzarella and parsley. They were juicy, tender, and seasoned the way a good pub‑style meatball should be. A lot of places overwork their meatballs or pack them so tight they turn into little cannonballs. These weren't that. They had the right texture -- soft but not mushy -- and enough seasoning to stand on their own without relying on the sauce to save them. The marinara was surprisingly good too. It had that slow‑simmered sweetness with a little acidity, not the metallic, straight‑from‑a‑can taste you sometimes get at sports‑bar‑type places. The melted mozzarella on top gave it that cozy, comfort‑food finish that pairs perfectly with a mixed drink. Drinks were fine -- nothing fancy, nothing bad -- just standard bar cocktails. Overall, The Dugout has potential, especially if you're coming for a casual night out. The food has bright spots (those meatballs are legit), but the service setup needs some rebalancing so guests aren't waiting forever while three bartenders stand behind the bar. I'd come back, but probably not during peak hours unless I'm prepared to sit on another mystery stool. #supportlocal read more

We stopped in here randomly for a night to watch the spurs game. When we came it was packed! Definitely a place many people come. It was hard to get our order in and didn't help that a football game was on too. I'd come back to try their food next time. We were in and out in 20 minutes. read more

So so excited that this place opened up! We have already came twice to eat here. We got the buffalo dip as an app and it was delicious and hot! Lots of cheese too. I absolutely love Italian beef's and had to try it. I asked for it dipped with spicy giardiniera. It's making my mouth water as I type, it was bomb. The beer is nice and cold too, lots of people came in to watch the games go on while we ate. The Dugout is such a great spot for good food and a chill place to drink a beer/catch a game. The staff is friendly too! read more

I really wanted to like this place because of the great on line presence. Went on a Tuesday evening (tonight). The place had empty seating etc and didn't look too busy. The food was pretty good, but the service was terrible, it took quite a while for a server to come by the table. It took even longer for the food order. Tables seated after we had been seated, received there food quicker. Small thing, but drink refills weren't timely. there appeared to be no clear assigned tables or servers to tables etc...Best defined as chaos. read more

I'm so happy that we finally visited the Dugout! Four of us visited on St Patrick's Day and they were beyond busy. We were able to secure a table, hooray! Even though they were slammed services was fine. As a bonus Plus 1 got her traditional green beer. I had my traditional Guinness and Jameson! Being a Chicago themed bar they offer Italian beef and Chicago dogs. I can testify that their Chi-dogs are legit. The Dugout does have a full bar, a great beer tap selection, and TVs everywhere to enjoy sporting events. When the weather is nice there is an outdoor area. read more

Great atmosphere and very good unique style pizza. It was trivia night which was fun. My girls enjoyed it as well!

This new local bar popped up in October 2025, which was formally known as Warpath. One thing that drew me here was their Chicago style menu and the fact that it's a sports bar. You can get a good Italian beef, hotdog, pizza, burger and wings from their extensive menu. You can sit on the bar side and watch one of seven flat screens or on the pool table side where there are four more screens and lots of seating. Lots of craft beers on tap and a full bar. The photos below include some, but not all of their menu pages. A great neighborhood bar that has plenty of parking out front and in back with a couple of pic nic tables sitting outside. I decided to get their Chicago hotdog to go. For $10 it was a good deal and it came with some excellent home fries, but no poppyseed bun. It's definitely a great bar to grab a beer and lunch at. Check out the photos and video below to get you through the door. read more

Great food, great fun, Music Trivia on Tuesday was fun, and the service was welcoming. Specialty pizzas were named for the city of the ball team....It was in the evening and even the few kids I saw were well behaved. read more

The Dugout has become my new favorite spot to catch a game in Cedar Park, and it nails everything a good sports bar should! It's a lively, family friendly place over on Cypress Creek Road with big screens at every turn, a fun energy in the room, and even an arcade area to keep everyone entertained. The staff are upbeat and quick, and there's complimentary popcorn for that nostalgic ballpark feel, plus trivia and music bingo nights if you want to hang around after the game. But the food is the real deal! The Chicago style pizza is the star, tastes homemade and you can taste the difference in that crispy golden crust. The wings and burgers hit the spot too, and they've got a great selection of cold beers on tap to go with it all. Don't skip the churros for dessert either, they're incredible. If you're in Cedar Park and want food, fun, and the big game, do yourself a favor and check it out. read more

75cent wings on Monday night cannot be beat! We got some wings and the Yankee Showdown pizza. The double crust was excellent. The cheese pulls were on point. Will definitely be going back. read more

This place is the real deal. Chicago style crispy thin pizza, lots of cheese, solid beer to choose from, and more servers now has put this at the top of my weekly must haves! read more

Pizza is super cheesy which I like. Wings are good flavor and crispy, not to mention half price on Mondays! I love chicken tenders as well and the Foul Bird chicken basket is one of my new favorites. We live right across the street so looking forward to trying more of the menu. Staff has all seemed cool and bar has plenty TVs for games to watch. read more

I stopped in the other afternoon, first time I'd been since the new owners. Perfect little bar in Cedar Park, all the food was exceptional and most of their menu is scratch made. They had a good selection on tap, and Ashley was a great bartender, (I think she's new there) super friendly with everyone made for a great time. I will definitely make this my go to spot now. read more

Great atmosphere, great staff, AMAZING pizza, and incredible beer selection, and did mention... AMAZING pizza?! Great for an after work hang out, watching sporting event, or even a late night dinner spot. They stay open later than many places around. Parking either in the front but more recently have had to park in the back but there is an entrance door on that side that takes you straight into the bar. Also restrooms are immaculate and have the cutest decorations that frequent change based on holidays/big events! Always love coming to the dugout! read more

Very solid local option. The cheese fries are unique and taste great! I highly recommend trying them. Pizza was pretty good too, but not the highlight for me. The serving sizes are great, it's always fresh, and the variety helps a lot. read more

We stopped by The Dugout and were seriously impressed. The vibe is super chill...great for catching a game or just hanging out with friends. TVs everywhere, cold drinks, and a menu that hits the spot. We tried the Chicago dog, a burger that was stacked and juicy, and split a pizza that disappeared way too fast. Everything came out hot and fresh, and the staff was friendly without being over-the-top. It's got that perfect mix of sports bar energy and neighborhood comfort. Great spot to catch a game, grab a drink, or just hang out with friends. We'll definitely be back! read more

I have to resort to ordering through UberEats due to being bed bound with an injury, which unfortunately means the Dugout staff doesn't receive tips. Once I heal, I'll make a trip in person to load up their tipjar. The food is SO impressive and fresh and the menu is very creative! They're above and beyond and I can't wait til I'm able to visit them in person and continue to support this place. read more

New hidden gem alert! Chicago has never been so close with this place. Not often do you get homemade food from a sweet little bar atmosphere. Chicago dog and wings were phenomenal, plus great fries and onion rings, cant go wrong! We will definitely be back! (Kids food and games in the back are awesome too) read more

This spot is Cedar Park's best kept secret! Great food, great environment, great drinks. 10/10 buffalo dip, burgers, and pizza.

Delicious. We just happened to go in during both happy hour and family night (Tuesday). Great deals all around. Pan pizza, wings, and garlic knots were great. This will be our go-to spot from now on! read more

Great service and the food is great! The Chicago dog reminds me of home. Highly recommend trying this place.

Loved it. Seven of us showed up and they put tables together and totally accommodated us. The Chicago style pizza was delicious and the Chi dog and onion rings were awesome. The grandkids ate nuggets and burgers and fries and when they actually eat something... that's good. The owner was very nice and provided darts for my two grandsons. Lots of fun. We'll be back! read more

Good service and tasty hotdog. Enjoyed the onion rings. I will be back to give the meatballs a try.

Fun place for games and beer. Staff was nice and welcoming and atmosphere was lively and fun

I have come to Dugout a couple times with my family and always feel so welcome!! The staff is not only attentive but very friendly and makes everyone feel like they're a part of the Cox family! We also had the chance to experience their first ever 80s and 90s music trivia night, and it was a BLAST! The vibes were immaculate! This specific time I ordered a chicken caesar salad around 11:00 and Cameron specifically made it for me and it had the best grilled chicken I've ever had. It was very lean, had no fat, and was very juicy! Me and my family also enjoyed many delicious specialty cocktails and had a great time! read more

I did not know hot dogs could taste this good. Very clean place and even better service. If you ever want a hot dog you got to check this place out! read more

Very good pizza. Service good. Knots really good. Place seems to be clean. No issues.

My wife and I are new to the area and have been hitting spots with decently high ratings on Yelp to check out the local hot spots. The Dugout was our pick for lunch this Sunday. When we arrived, the bar was full, so we grabbed a high-top table and proceeded to watch all of the NFL games currently showing on the 6 or 7 TVs in that area. We were met shortly by one of the waitstaff who asked for our drink order. We ordered drinks and then decided on an appetizer of the meatballs. OMG! Probably the best meatballs we've ever had. My wife ended up not getting more food because these suckers were so tasty and filling. The order was 3 not-quite-baseball-sized meatballs, deliciously moist, not dense, and covered in savory mozzarella cheese in a lake of one of the better marinara sauces I've had, along with two of their scrumptious garlic knots. This could easily be a meal by itself! It was so filling, I had to change my thoughts about getting their Chicago-style deep dish pizza because I figured I'd only be able to eat a piece or two at most. I ended up ordering their traditional cheeseburger and fries. The burger was a 1/2 lbs with cheddar, plain and dry, just the way I ordered it, along with a pretty large side of hand-cut fries. Everything was just as delicious as the meatballs. I guess the best comment I could make is we will DEFINITELY be back to enjoy the pizza for sure, and likely the wings and the Italian beef... if only to see how it compares to what I remember Portillo's in the Chicago area tasting. All in all, a great experience. My wife's comment of the day was, "I'm going to be dreaming about those meatballs!" read more
