The outdoor patio has one of the biggest screens on Rainey, making it a solid choice for watching live games. They also have great weekday and weekend deals, plus two different boozy slushy flavors. Unfortunately, the slushy machine seems to be broken pretty often, so if you're like me and that's exactly what you came for, it can be a bit of a gamble. They also don't always pick up the phone, so it's hard to check ahead. Their espresso martini is very strong, both in espresso and liquor, so take that as you will. All in all, it's a solid spot to mingle and hang out, especially if you're looking for a more laid-back place to grab a beer, White Claw, or watch a game with friends.

Highlights: - Packed with people actually fully watching the game and cheering along - Lots of TVs - Food can order in the back - Long bar, 2 different rooms, and front and back patio - Even when crowded, not too hard to get a drink - Economically priced drinks Midlights: - Can get crowded Lowlights: - Can't have drinks on front patio

The drinks are reasonable priced and the service is good. The food is decent. It's your typical bar food (ie - wings, chicken tenders, fries, etc.). They also Po' Boys and seafood plates. They have a huge space with indoor seating and an outdoor patio. There's tons of TVs everywhere. And the best part is the atmosphere. It's usually packed and people are always into the games. Depending on what game you want to see, I'd recommend coming early to make sure you can get a good seat. But well worth checking out!

You could get a regular breakfast, a sweet treat or something more lunch like. I had the cinnamon roll and it was delicious. It was huge and just the right amount of doughy. The frosting was fantastic, but I'm pretty sure I gained 5 pounds eating it. My friend of the gumbo. It was a little spicy, but she enjoyed it. She also had some pink cocktail that she raved about, but I forgot what it's called. They do a jazz brunch on Sundays, which I really really want to check out. I'll definitely be back to this place.

For reasons that make no sense to any experienced summer festival-goer, the Q2 powers-that-be decided to make this a "no re-entry" event, meaning that attendees are basically locked in the stadium with very few options for relief from the heat. Thank heaven for PointsBet Sports Bar! PointsBet Austin is located inside of Q2 stadium on the north end near the Zebra Gate, up some stairs just to your right as you enter the gate. They have cold air-conditioning, at least one phone recharging station, a few table games, seating for at least 50 people, and standing room for a couple hundred others. Plus, there's a huge horseshoe bar serving plenty of canned and mixed beverages. The whole north wall is floor-to-ceiling windows, providing plenty of natural light. Lastly, there are 18 flatscreens around the walls showing various sporting events and during our concert, a couple were streaming a live view of the concert stage. As expected, prices were "high" (like everything else in Austin these days), but they were in line with pricing available at the other beverage stands outside in the stadium, so we didn't pay any more than we would have out there for the same drink. According to their website, PointsBet opens 3 hours before soccer matches on regular Q2 game days, and it's one of the few air-conditioned places where non-VIP attendees can get a break from the goings-on outside.

The other thing they do good is soft serve margaritas. Adult decadence at its finest. The flavors are always super yum. It's boozy ice cream, who could say no to that? Our last visit on 9/5/26 was the first day of the UT football season. Cedar came through with an Orange Creamsicle soft serve marg. Absolutely yummy and garnished perfectly with UT colors and candied footballs. Check out my pics for the goodness of it all. Cedar Door knows what's up! They've been around since 1975 (original spot was at 15th and Guadalupe). They've been churning out kick-ass cocktails for decades. Great beer selection. Can't beat the game day specials or happy hour deals. Terrific food---yummy burgers and chicken sandwiches. Service is always really good whether they're jam packed (so busy most of the time) or not.

For me the Salisbury steak was the best I've ever had. I'm from the Midwest and that was a staple but when I got to Cali it was rare to find. Fun fact we own a family restaurant since 1983 and that was on the menu but people really didn't order it like that so we discontinued it. Maybe if it tasted like yalls it would've worked. Anyway whenever we are in Austin again we are coming straight there. I love the popcorn snack before the meal as well and that could've been my dinner by itself. Cool vibe as well throughout so keep up the good work! Oh and the burnt ends grilled cheese was amazing as well and the fries! ALLLLL GOOD!!!

Service was excellent as there weren't too many patrons on the afternoon that we visited. The decor is cute yet casual. When we're back in Austin, we'll definitely come back!

Definitely has a kick, be prepared if you don't take spicy food well. Thai Hippie Tofu - Good flavor, although there was a little too much sauce and salty for my taste. Char-Buff Cauliflower - Good and flavorful. Hawaiian Shrimp Ceviche - Refreshing and a nice option. Itchy Salmon - Two tiny pieces of sushi, but they were good. Brisket Rangoons - Just okay for me. This was probably my least favorite dish of the night. Sweet Potato Waffle Fries - crispy with good flavor. A fun side to share. Smash Burger - We had it cut in half, which made it perfect for sharing. Good burger and a satisfying way to end the meal. Overall, a fun spot for happy hour if you want to order several different dishes and share. There was a good variety.
