On our way from DFW to check in near Lake Travis, our 2013 Hyundai started overheating. Panicked, we pulled into the nearest turnoff, which just happened to be an O'Reilly's auto parts. While we waited for the engine to cool, we spotted Shooters and decided to step inside. The moment we walked in, the atmosphere was dark yet welcoming. Mac greeted us with a smile and served up two perfectly cold drinks--just what we needed to calm our nerves. I didn't even care this is the official local Green Bay Packers watch spot. I'm a Cowboys fan... As I was on the phone with my mechanic back in DFW, Mac overheard our situation and took it upon himself to help. He reached out to a mechanic friend at the bar who was ready to lend a hand. Within an hour, thanks to Mac's quick thinking and kindness, our car was fixed and we were back on our way to enjoy our weekend. Shooters offers more than just ice-cold drinks and pool tables; it's a place where strangers become friends. Huge thanks to Mac for his exceptional service and generosity. If you find yourself in Austin, don't miss this spot!

The service was great and the food is decent. The prices are reasonable. I went to watch a Spurs game, but I didn't realize it was their Comedy Open Mic Night. The open mic comedy made it difficult for me to enjoy the game honestly. I'd go back, but I'd check their calendar to make sure I could watch any sports games without distractions.

If that's not a problem for you, then you're in for a good time. We came in on a Tuesday night and easily found a pool table to ourselves. We opened a tab and had no trouble getting drinks without having to leave our games. The mixed drinks are nothing to write home about, but we had an excellent time drinking and playing pool. We also easily played some table shuffle board. They have computer slots/keno games to gamble with in a shady corner is that's something you're into. The place was acceptably clean and the staff were all very friendly. Just make sure you have a VALID drivers license regardless of your age! This was place was a good time and I'll definitely be back again in the future.

I want to start by acknowledging how amazing the entire staff at Shooters has always been. Their…read morehospitality, friendliness, and consistency are the reason I continued to visit for so long. A special thank you to Tracy behind the bar, who has always provided outstanding service and made guests feel welcome. Unfortunately, despite the excellent staff, I will no longer be supporting this establishment. Over time, I've become increasingly uncomfortable with the behavior of some of the clientele. I've repeatedly heard racist remarks disguised as "jokes," and in 2026, this type of behavior simply has no place in our society. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, beliefs, and political views, but there is a time and place for those conversations, especially in a public setting where people should feel safe and welcome. What is most disappointing is that the environment seems to have been allowed to continue unchecked. As a customer, I cannot help but feel that ownership is either unaware of what is occurring or not sufficiently involved in addressing it. This is unfortunate because it negatively impacts the experience for guests who simply want to enjoy a night out without feeling uncomfortable or looking over their shoulder. I used to love coming here, which makes writing this review especially disappointing. The staff deserves recognition for the work they do every day, but the atmosphere created by some patrons has made it a place where I no longer feel welcome. I sincerely hope management takes a closer look at the culture being tolerated in the establishment because this venue has the potential to be much better.

What a great experience we had at Round Rock Tavern. We came for their sister bar, Hoot & Annie's…read moremonth-long Star Wars pop-up. Decided to share a drink and play Jenga on the side patio here after we went to Hoot & Annie. It was relaxing and fun. We also spent time chillin' on the rooftop in the space they call Escobar. It was so peaceful sitting on the rooftop and watching the town move about below us. The interior of the tavern is a neighborhood live music venue/pub with a nice sized stage and dance floor, two bars, photo booth and more. We came in on an early Thursday evening (dinner time) and business wasn't too busy, a few others in attendance. The staff were prepping for a busy evening ahead as they tend to get packed when musicians are performing. Everyone working from the manager to the bartenders were so incredibly nice and treated us as though we've always known each other. It's that total Round Rock friendly vibe. Prices are really affordable, especially during happy hour. The frozens are tasty! Really cool spot in the center of town. Definitely plan to hit them up the next time we're in RR.

They've got two full bars, a stage for live music, and even a vending machine stocked with everything from cigarettes to tampons, which definitely made me stop and stare for a few! There's also a video poker room, photo booth and a great outdoor area with comfy seating, Jenga games, and a food truck, so there's plenty to keep you entertained. Service is quick, the beer on tap is cold, the place was clean, and I loved the funny t-shirts they have for sale. I can't wait to come back and check out the live music scene!

Ok, maybe I was staggering because of the very large Wild Turkey but it was still a great deal. * * * Texas flags fly on top of the bar. The jukebox plays country. The parking spaces features those pre-made aluminum signs you can buy on Highway 290 that say things like - "My Colt 45 is a lot faster than your 911." I don't think they will be serving tofu here anytime soon. * * * The crowd inside is 80% white, 20% black, 0% hispanic. Some of the blacks wear veterans caps. Most of the crowd is 40 or older, with a smattering of 30's and no one 25 or younger. Lots of people know each other. * * * Eight-liners are a big thing here. Two thirds of the patrons play. I am guessing these are fully legal. I have been in illegal eight liner places. Those have an icky furtive paranoid feel. At the illegal places, if nobody knows you, everyone wants you to go. At Bob's, I was made totally welcome the minute I walked in the door. No one was worrying about anything. * * * I am not an eight-liner kind of a guy, So I watched Sports TV and had a burger. It was a regular bar burger and tasted fine. The tater tots were T-shaped. (What's with that?) Still they were fun. There was plenty to see on all the TV screens. * * * Nice people. Nice place.

I wasn't sure why it didn't have more people at first, but then again, maybe they all come later at night. I would come back again to have a drink and enjoy the space 'early'. I like that they opened again and are trying something new.

Our server Sam comes about 40 minutes in. Then we went outside to their balcony to smoke after ordering food and eating some. Came back and they gave our table up and cleared our food.. told us they thought we left and would have to wait for another table. Sam said "pool etiquette is leaving the pool sticks as an x on the table" but never heard of that.. most places that I've been to frowned upon it so I looked it up and it's actually very much not.. Nevermind our food that was also gone. All around very poor experience, we ended up just leaving because it took forever to get drinks and no longer had our table or anything. Pretty lame, just wanted to take my nephew to play pool, have some drinks and eat. We had a cigarette and came back to nothing. Clearly the server was more concerned with getting the next party in. Probably won't go back after all that.
