    Had a great time here with my dog grabbed something to drink the ambiance was very family oriented lots of kids and dogs very pleasant environment they have food trucks and live music! Service inside was friendly

    We went to try this brewery for a social meetup. It was a bit far for us, so we drove instead of rideshare. There was plenty of parking in the somewhat shaded lot. There are several beers to choose from in draft. Higher abv were poured smaller than pints, but they started at our choices of 6%, which was a little culture shock. I had the Dunk Vader, which was as amazing as it was dark. We sat at an umbrella patio table outside. There are also outdoor TVs, adirondack chairs, fire pits, and some playground structures in the small park-like gren space. There are strict rules for dogs, such as being on a leash. There are also rules about children, but they still ran around screaming and throwing balls or ice. I would use caution if bringing smaller children or older pets.With perfect weather like today, this made a great brewery to visit. It is beautiful, very clean, and has nice amenities.

    Bare Pops hot cocoa is so good!

    Beautiful local spot for foodies and beer lovers alike. The grass area has picnic tables so you can enjoy your food truck finds there while enjoying the day. There's a nice playground for the kids. Parking is small so carpool or walk here if you're nearby. That's the worse about this place is parking BUT sooo worth the hassle. It's a good time here, weekends the lady with the table sells hot cocoa (soo good!) and ice cream is a must! Kid and dog friendly.

    Hidden gem near ATX--great for a quick bite or chill afternoon! This food truck park is one of the best I've visited. Tons of shaded outdoor seating, cooling misters, and a dog-friendly vibe. There's also an indoor bar with seating if you need a break from the heat. Plenty of food truck options--Fez was incredible (check out my full review on their page!). We also tried the Strawberry Cream Matcha from Bare Pops--perfectly sweet and made with quality ingredients. My dog loved the homemade dog popsicle, too. Service at both spots was fantastic! TL;DR: Cool, laid-back food truck park with great eats, shade, and dog-friendly vibes--definitely worth a stop!

    This is a very spacious venue. It is also kid-friendly and pet-friendly. They have a great selection of beers. There are tons of options for food trucks if you are hungry. They often have live music. The service was great as well.

    Playground fun giant tower kids all over the place

    Wow--The Good Lot is easily one of my favorite outdoor spots in Texas. Picture a laid-back beer garden under big oak trees, with misting fans to keep things cool, 15+ beers on tap, and a rotating lineup of food trucks. It's the perfect place to unwind. They've recently added a little coffee and hot cocoa trolley that also serves popsicles, which is a fun touch, especially for the kids. I love the vibe here--casual, family-friendly, and full of good energy. The kids can run around while the adults relax by the firepits with a drink in hand. The food trucks have something for everyone--burgers, BBQ, Greek, Korean, tacos--you name it. Great drinks, great food, and great people. The Good Lot nails that Texas beer garden feel perfectly.

    This is an amazing local hangout and a fun place to be. Very family friendly and oriented with a great neighborhood vibe. Lots of people enjoying adult beverages and just chilling with friends. Kids playing with each other and strangers all getting along together. I wish more neighborhoods had this type of place available. Definitely need to come down and visit here!

    Family members had been to The Good Lot many times previously, and had a birthday celebration there on a recent Saturday. It's a great place for family and friends to gather and spend a few fun hours together. It's also dog-friendly. (Adding: this can be a minus, in that dog owners are sometimes blind to their pets' suitability to be around children and other dogs.) The place includes 4 areas: a building where alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages are dispensed, a food truck area with great selections, a fenced-in outdoor area with artificial turf and seating areas that include fire tables, and a kids play area with wood structures for climbing. The outdoor area is mostly shady, making this a good place to hang out even in the summer heat. We treated ourselves to (expensive) truffle fries from the burger truck, and went inside the building to enjoy them and to participate in the birthday party. Water is available at the main entrance at no charge. If you're looking for a place to enjoy a good brew or wine with family and friends and want a wide selection of foods, The Good Lot might become one of your favorite hangouts.

    Beers and Ciders

    They have decent Beer/Cider options and its good place to hang out with friends/family. Mediterranean food truck i.e., Fez is one thats consistently good with loaded fries, Muhammara and grilled skewers. Other food trucks does have options but been hit or miss when we visited couple of times.

The business has a music bingo on Friday nights (or every other) which can be over excessively load. I was with a group of 15+ people - fellow members of an International club visiting the location. The group decided to move out onto the patio because it was too load in the dining area to have a conversation. Shortly thereafter that, the host of the music bingo placed a load speaker out onto the patio and turned it up full blast. We tried to get him to turn it down, but he refused. Thus, our group disbanded leaving only 4 of us. It continued to be extremely load out on the patio and several people started to complain... so I took it onto my own to to turn the speaker down to a reasonable level - I received a applause from the other customers. Within moments, a staff member walked out onto the patio and turned the speaker up to a ear deafening level. I asked her to turn it down and her response was... "this is the way, it always is!" With an attitude like that I became upset - I gave her a piece of mind (a couple of word slipped out - nothing that she hasn't heard before in her life). Moments later, the manager came out and admonished me in a very disturbing manner, which again, was poorly handled. It will be suggesting to my fellow International members and my Meetup group, to look for alternative venues that will appreciate our business (there so many in Cedar Park). Apparently, Whitestone Brewery has more customers than they need. I didn't realize that I had not completed my review - this goes back to the beginning of the year. Note: the response from the Owner is completely inaccurate. Ryan wasn't even there the night it happen - only going on what his employees told him. I have witnesses (business owners that are very involved with the community) that observed the entire event and they were taken back by the whole disregard to customer service. Instead of being apologetic, he throws around statements that legitimizes his inadequacies. A real piece of work.

I may visit Obsidian Brewery time after time after time after time and never find out how their beer is. This is because a) They have an outstanding bar and b) They have an outstanding kitchen. For me, beer is a hardship beverage you drink when there is nothing else better available. When I go to a bar, I can sometimes be looking for mix-mastering. Usually I am looking for outstanding top of the line hard spirits. * * * When I walked into Obsidian, I looked at their bar. It was love at first sight. In front of me were twenty yards of three shelves of the most wonderful bottles I could possibly imagine. Half of them I had never heard of before. * * * I settled on a Buddha's Hand Gin. Buddha and Gin rarely appear in the same sentence Never mind the same label on a bottle. I ordered it straight up. I went immediately to Nirvana. Forget the meditation and the austerities. The Buddha's Hand Gin was as good as a trip to the Himalayas. Buddha's Hand is an obscure citrus fruit that grows multiple protuberances the way some horseradishes do. It is golden and looks like a hand. Ergo the name. The Buddha's Hand Gin is a citrus tinged gin with an edge more like orange zest than like orange juice. The additional botanicals make it strong, attention grabbing, fruity and yet combative. I was absolutely fascinated. Note that Buddha's Hand Gin is only one of the many items they have to explore there. I am totally ready to do more exploring. * * * The kitchen at Obsidian is also of distinction. The savvy local guide I came with adored his Thai Curry Wood Fired Rings. I went with a Cheesy Bread. This is open-faced grilled cheese on a thick slice of bread the size of a shoebox, with a wonderful homemade tomato sauce on about 1/3 of it. It is the best cheese pizza you have ever had. It is what cheese pizza is supposed to be if you don't use the standard canned ingredients that institutional providers sell to Domino's. I was as in love with my cheese bread as I was with my citrus gin. * * * The company was also outstanding. Which is just as well because Obsidian is a social place. Lots of Leanderthals having a fine time in couples and groups. This is not a loner's loser bar. You know - the dark rooms with misfits drinking their sixth beer while watching TV. This is a good folks good times full-of-sunlight place. So you definitely want to come with good folks. * * * Good food, good bottles, good people. And if you are feeling chipper, You can even have a homemade beer to celebrate.

You can mix and match pretty much anything. Is it a bar? You could say that, any of the beers in the cooler can be consumed on-site; there's picnic tables both inside and outside and there's bar type games: pinball, foosball, darts that you can play while you hang out and drink. They don't have a kitchen but there's always a food truck right outside or you can bring your own in. I've never been for bingo or comedy nights or anything like that. I come for the brews, chill out and eat good food; it's kind of like being in someone's rec room but with way more beer. My only real knock is the corkage fee, if you're going to drink on-site they do charge $2 bucks per, which doesn't seem like much but it adds up.

But it was pretty hot out, and once the sun went down the party really started- there was upwards of 10 dogs when we left!

There is plenty of tree shade as well, and water bowls set out for the pups. You check in at the bar and then can order drinks directly from a window in the dog park so you don't have to leave the fenced in park, which is nice. This dog park is super casual- no food served here, or cocktails. Just a nice straightforward (and reasonably priced) beer and wine menu. But really, what else do you need? Just some dogs, music (they had music playing) and a cold beer that comes with a cute coozie. The staff was so nice and really good with the dogs- they were there managing all the interactions and ensuring that nothing got tense. I really appreciated that. They do have doggie ice cream that you can purchase and have your dog eat outside of the park (no food allowed inside, makes a ton of sense). This place may not have jumbo screens and margaritas like some other dog parks- but that's fine by me for the relaxed and friendly vibe, reasonable prices, and staff that ensures all the dogs are safe and having fun!

My first beer was the Gold Bars, Babe Czech Pale Lager. This is a perfect Czech pale that is light and crisp and perfect for a hot afternoon. Plus one ordered the Bronco Blonde Blonde Ale. It drank very light and was a great example of Blonde Ales that most breweries offer. I also sampled their Chairman of the Board Italian Grape Ale. Since we just visited Flat Creek winery I took a flyer on this beer as it is aged in Flat Creek's French oak Cab barrels. It was very complex/interesting but not my cup of tea/beer. They have some other interesting brews that I can't wait to try like their IPAs, ambers, and Italian pilsner. Not a beer person they offer wine and a cider. Do check out the Flat Creek bubbles it is truly wonderful. Service was excellent and we were cheerfully offered samples. One nit they had live music on Sat and the very talented gentleman playing was severely compromised by the terrible building acoustics. I would suggest adding bafflers. Strong 4 stars!

Located off Anderson Mill in the corner of a strip mall is a bookshelf with a door on the right side. If you cannot figure out the entrance, there is a doorbell to ring as well. I believe it is owned by the same people who own The Mill bar right next door, which makes it feel like a cool bonus space. My friend and I sat next to a faux fireplace, where we were greeted by the only bartender working and placed our order. Once he opened the tab, it was disappointing that he never came back to check if we wanted another drink. It wasn't super busy on the Monday we went, but since he was the only one manning the bar, the bartender was always doing something, so I don't blame him fully for not checking back in with us. I ordered a drink called the Velvet Vice. It looked nothing like the picture and tasted similar to an Aviation cocktail with egg whites. I happened to really like it. It is a very relaxed space, but once the speakeasy gimmick wears off, it does not have much else going for it. It is still a cool place, but I am not sure it was worth the lengthy drive to get there.
