 Country, dancing, classic |
1600 West Fifth St Austin, TX 78701 United States +1 512 478 0336 |
Come enjoy country western music in a railroad relic. This venue, although slightly outside of downtown, provides an excellent opportunity to dance and watch older country western pros strut their stuff. The old Texas feel and the relaxing atmosphere make a great team with cold beer and great music. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Johnny Cash Bar |

If city parking is like rain on your downtown drinking parade, look no further than the Mean Eyed Cat on West 5th Street. The one-room, no-cover dive bar has an urban feel, but boasts a parking lot that would put Costco to shame. Built to honor the late great Johnny Cash, the Mean Eyed Cat has a crowded back patio and plenty of man-in-black collectibles. The Mean Eyed stage, featuring live music almost every night of the week, is popular with patrons of all ages. Order a shot at the bar to go down, down, down into a burning ring of fire.

The Shoal Creek Saloon is a sports bar that serves great Cajun food. The gumbos are good, the burgers are meaty and you can pick any seafood item cooked creole style. The Shoal Creek Saloon also has daily specials for lunch and dinner. If you're into catfish, crawfish or shrimp, try the po'boys. Better yet, make yourself comfortable with the all-you-can-eat catfish lunch buffet and the coinciding happy hour. The TVs always have a game on; the Shoal Creel Saloon also features live bands. Perfect for a guys night out or lunch with the family. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Unmistakeable local landmark |
922 West 12th Street Austin, TX 78703 United States +1 512 474 7496 |
This is one of the best known and best loved places in town to meet with friends, watch sports, have some drinks and eat down-home cooking. From Lamar Boulevard, you cannot miss the sign advertising 'air conditioning'. Designed in 1916 and modeled after a German pub, it operated as a grocery store until the end of World War I. From the Great Depression on, it has operated as a restaurant and bar. The environment is quite casual and often bustling with activity. The full bar frequently offers drink specials. Their large menu offers American and Tex-Mex classics, with entrees such as chicken fried steak and meatloaf. Review © 2007, Wcities |
