German beer garden |
4112 Medical Pkwy Austin, TX 78756 United States +1 512 452 6258 http://www.draughthouse.com |
A step away from the beaten path, Draught House Pub & Brewery an excellent German beer garden provides a welcome relief from downtown's Sixth Street. The European pub atmosphere and exhaustive selection of imported drafts make this bar a favorite among locals and visitors alike. The seating is excellent with high-backed wooden seats and very thick wooden tables. Come visit on Wednesday for pitcher night with free pizza or on Saturday with free bratwurst.

Lake Austin's Favorite Dive Bar |
4812, Mt Bonnell Road Austin, TX 78731 United States +1 512 453-9244 |
The Dry Creek Saloon is one of Austin's older and less well-known watering holes. It is a beer-only bar and they don't take credit cards so remember to stop at an ATM before you arrive. Upstairs on the deck, patrons can catch some afternoon sun while, on occasion, enjoying some live music. While a serious dive bar at first glance, Dry Creek has become a favorite for those looking for a laid back happy-hour experience. -Nicholas Van Zandt Review © 2007, Wcities |

Festive atmosphere |
214 W 4th St Austin, TX 78701 United States +1 512 457 0172 http://www.fadoirishpub.com |
One of Austin's most crowded bars on the weekends. Fado pronounced (Fuh-DOH) translates to "long ago" in Celtic. The bar contains everything from Celtic designs to polished wood blocks and glass cabinets. If you can find a table grab it and watch the crowd meander around the bar, which is centered in the middle, or head outside to the small patio with its own bar and enjoy a Guinness. Handicapped parking is available behind the pub, in the alley. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Great brew pub |
304 W 4th St Austin, TX 78701 United States +1 512 473 8801 http://www.gingermanpub.com |
With occasional live music, a great jukebox, pool tables, darts and over 80 draft beers to choose from, it is no wonder this is a popular hangout. Enjoy the atmosphere inside this pub setting with couches and comfortable table gatherings. During cooler months, the outdoor patio is a wonderful place to gather with friends and try the great variety of beers offered here. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Diverse, patio, loud |
512 Trinity St Austin, TX 78701 United States +1 512 478 8562 http://www.maggiemaesaustin.com/ |
This bar provides multi-level entertainment. The ground floor offers live cover-band music; passers-by can look in and see people dancing to the hits. If dancing is not your thing,sneak next door for a beer in the adjoining beer hall, or head upstairs to the more-than-ample patio overlooking the Sixth street crowd. Maggie's is famous in Austin for their motto T-shirt: "Beer. It's not just for breakfast anymore." Review © 2007, Wcities |

Oldest in Texas |
1607 San Jacinto Blvd Austin, TX 78701 United States +1 512 474 1958 http://www.virtual-restaurants... |
Opened in 1866, this bar has become a mecca for every Texas governor and quite a number of other people. This is Texas's oldest beer garden; it now provides an extensive menu of traditional bratwurst and sauerkraut as well as barbecue favorites. As is tradition, the bar is a favorite during, before and after the University of Texas Longhorn games. Even if there is not a game, this is still one of the best places to sit back and enjoy a cold beer. Review © 2007, Wcities |

The Real Austin Blues Scene |
1413, Webberville Road Austin, TX 78721 United States +1 512 926 2200 |
T.C.'s Lounge is one of the few remaining landmarks of the Austin music scene that has yet to succumb to the expansive growth of the city. This bar has been a long revered hot-spot for local blues musicians and music lovers. They have brought in famous local bands such as the Leghounds, which has helped to increase their popularity. They are a beer only bar but do offer set-ups to those patrons who wish to bring their own liquor. If looking for a uniquely cultural experience in the Austin blues scene, then T.C.'s Lounge is certainly the place for you. -Nicholas Van Zandt Review © 2007, Wcities |
