The other day, a friend that used to live in Austin wanted BBQ but most of the favourites were closed on Tuesdays so I suggested Brown's BBQ which has amazing BBQ and is a hop, skip, and a jump to the Corner Bar. The Corner Bar has a cool laid back vibe that I really liked and our bartender Emily was extraordinary, prepared my Old Fashioned perfectly, the way that I like it.

Especially this particular neighborhood. Similar vibe but much cooler and the food might even be better!! I've been here for various events and today I went to their Saturday daytime Spring Fling dance music event which featured the great Dirtybird dj/Producer J.Phlip. I was dancing hard and am very excited about this new free weekly event!!! They have a great speciality drink menu (which is expensive) and a very small menu of average price beers. But they have happy hours and daily specials early in the day worth checking out. The atmosphere is funky and the stage is outside but the inside is very nice.

I was disappointed and confused by my date night here. I could not tell what the identity of this…read moreplace was because for 1. They had a prix fixe valentines menu and luxurious and moody decor with drapes covering the walls but then I turn my head and the Olympics are playing. 2. There are multiple BRIGHT TVs on at 7:30 playing the Olympics inside the moody draped dining room during valentines dinner "rush." 3. The music was SO loud that i couldn't hear the person sitting across from me 4. Aside from the designated eating areas there was outdoor seating with curling set ups almost like corn hole and a pool table right next to the eating area. If this place didn't want to cater to the Valentines dinner crowd they shouldn't have. It seemed like they wanted to cater to any and everyone being the romantic diners, singles at a dive bar, people looking to watch the Olympics and it left me confused and disappointed. If they are trying to be a relaxed cocktail bar with a revolving menu then BE that and it is on me for choosing to spend my valentines here. The evening just did not make any sense.

Ohhh and the bathrooms soo clean and cute loved the art in there. Def now on my normal spots list.

The beer list isn't too long, but covers all the bases and the cocktails are good. One disappointment on the cocktails is inconsistencies between bartenders. We had some spicy chicken from the food truck and fried pickles. They were great. So overall, it's a great place to relax with friends and chill. We liked it and will be back regularly.

There really aren't a ton of fun places like this in South Austin, so if you're in that area, it's definitely worth checking out. They have a few free parking spots, but the larger lot is paid, so carpooling is a good idea. I love that they offer a mix of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, so there's something for everyone. There are also a few food trucks on-site, including Via 313, which is always a win. The space itself is perfect for hanging out, there's a big screen, live music, and even cornhole. It's also dog-friendly, which makes it even better. Overall, it's such a fun, laid-back spot and I'd definitely come back!

My friends and I came during a time when kids are allowed. My husband went up and found out they have apple juice. He got some for our kids and another kid. When they finished it, I went in to ask for more. It was another bartender and he seemed really annoyed I even asked. I said I'm sorry but my husband just got some and he insisted I'm mistaken and looked more annoyed. He sent me away. My husband asked and his response was "are you with that woman in the scrubs?" And was annoyed yet again. What did I do to him to piss him off? Anyway. Our friend went up then and asked the original guy who got it for us. THERE WAS NO MISTAKE. The bartender just was rude for no reason. I tipped 25% when I got drinks from him, and never once treated him like crap. So not sure what I did to deserve his ire

One of my favorite bars in Austin. Some people might see it as a little divey, but that's honestly…read morepart of the charm. The atmosphere is always friendly, relaxed, and easy to settle into whether you're there for a quick drink or hanging out for the night. The drinks are consistently great, and they also have really solid weekday food specials. The sliders and tots are definitely the go-to items on the menu and always hit the spot after a few drinks. One thing I especially appreciate is how much effort they put into the themed décor during Christmas and Halloween. It really adds personality to the space and makes coming back during the holidays feel fun and memorable every year. Just an overall great neighborhood bar with good vibes and a lot of character.

I realize I haven't updated this review since relocating to Austin two years ago. As you may have…read morenoted from my previous review, I'd come here twice a year when visiting from the east coast. One of my stipulations for relocation was to be within walking distance of my beloved Nickel City. Guess what? I am! Less than a five-minute walk. I love this place so much. It's not always about drinking. In fact, quite often I'll do mocktails, water, or soda. It's about community and friendship. The vibe at NC can't fully be expressed in words. It has to be experienced. The staff treat locals and tourists like friends. And, if you're lucky enough, you actually become friends. They're like a family. Same can be said about patrons, whether regulars, sometimers, or tourists, everyone feels the love. Everyone just gets it! They have some of the best cocktails around. The frozen Irish coffee is incredible. Espresso martinis on tap? Yes, please! And if you want the best bar/comfort food ever then order from their food truck, Delray Cafe. Crinkle cut fries A+ Smashburgers A+ Hot Dogs A+ Grilled Cheese A+ Pizza Logs A+ Tater Tots A+ Everything on the menu A+ Be sure to give the gang in the kitchen (food truck) some love! They're putting out the real deal. Oh and let's not forget Steak Night! Much love to my fave neighbor, Nickel City!

Buy one get one burgers is already a win, but the fact that the burgers are actually that good makes it even better. The vibe is laid-back and a little bit neighborhood bar meets casual hangout.

The burgers are solid, satisfying, and definitely worth going out of your way for, especially when you're essentially getting two for one (even if you don'tsplit with a friend!
