So to be fair Im only giving 4 stars because its a limited menu due to FIFA. I was dying for some good Shepherds pie! BUT! The fish and chips are excellent! Batter stays on, fish is fresh and perfectly flaky yet holds together. Fries are perfect and the pecan tartar sauce is bangin! My husband had the burger which was good. Nothing over the top but a good juicy burger, soft bun, with fries. They give you more fries than you, well, I can eat. I first had the Foxy Daiquiri. It is a great twist on the original Hemingway. I also had their frozen Irish coffee "Irish Goodbye". Very good! It's dessert in a glass that you can actually taste the alcohol even with the Ice Cream! Yum!! We sat at the bar and Abby was our bartender. Very friendly and attentive. If I were an Austin local I would come to sit at her bar. Really cool Irish vibe with a Jameson chandelier. Love the old world pub look. Edit to add. Chocolate torte was delicious, rich, wonderful chocolate. We got 2 sides of ice cream too! Definitely worth the extra ice cream with 2 people read more

Foxy's Proper Pub - Chocolate torte with two sides of ice cream. Yum! - Irish Pub Near Me - Austin, Texas

This place really is a "proper pub." My friend and I were seated upstairs on the balcony and our waitress was extremely attentive in between getting us beers and our food. I was pretty happy with the portion size - I think I paid $32 after tax and tip for a burger, fries, and beer. read more

Hey, Foxy! I sure do like your Irish pub vibes. It's like an updated concept of an Irish pub (aka Americanized). I love the dim lighting and wood accents. Really fab service. Excellent happy hour prices. The Scotch Eggs, Pretzel Board, Irish Eggrolls, Potato Skins, and Shepherds Pie are amazingly delish pub comfort dishes. Nothing beats Shepherds Pie with a cold Guinness or cold Guinness Zero. Lots of other things on the menu I wanna try like the bangers and Jameson strip steak, green beans, and more. Cheers. read more

Amazing service and great food, love the variety of the menu and drinks ! Will be coming back.

Great spot with a cool, lively atmosphere! I had been before on St. Patrick's day (which I highly recommend), but hadn't tried the food until now. Stopped in with a large group on a Saturday night to grab dinner and watch football, and it was a great choice. No wait, and our whole group of 10 was seated right away on the outdoor patio with a huge TV screen front and center. The food was delicious, and our server was friendly, attentive, and provided great recommendations. Already knew this was a fun place for drinks, but now I can confidently say the food makes it worth coming back for too read more

Really enjoy popping into Foxy's for HH. They have great prices on drinks and apps, and a big menu if you'd like to order something additional. They also have trivia on Thursday's! read more

Definitely a pub in name only. What Irish establishment runs out of Jameson? Huh... friendly staff, just nothing proper bout it.

Really bad service, when you could get it at all. Very mediocre food. Not a very happy happy hour when your table of 6 has one happy hour menu, and you're waiting half an hour for service. read more

The food was amazing a Especially the Irish egg rolls. We went back 2 days in a row. The service was better the first night with Abby? Behind the bar. But the next night guy was very pleasant but the kitchen did t open till after we had been there for an hour. They also serve a good Guinness pour. A little cold for my taste but that is pretty standard for Texas read more

Staying at the JW. Looking for a place to get some food and drinks. Perfect place. Coming back to get the secret menu! Abby says it's awesome! read more

Back at Foxy's. Sliders are still amazing and the fries are unbelievable. So glad I came back.

Food and atmosphere were amazing after a long 3 day conference. Food was absolutely delicious and there was quite the variety.

This place has such a cool vibe! The atmosphere was great and the bartender was super cool. He knew everything on the menu and was very knowledgeable about the chemistry behind it all. We really enjoyed sitting and chatting with him and loved this place! Definitely check it out! read more

This place has so much potential. Two stories, outdoor balcony, patio, bar, sofas, great view of the street. The experience was completely hampered by the server / bartender. She looked and acted completely annoyed that we would possibly asking her to do a job. I think she actually rolled her eyes at me when I asked if the upstairs patio was open. No thanks, plenty of other places to go in this town. read more

Luck of the Irish It was St. Patrick's Day and search all over downtown Austin for green beer until a bouncer said come on in we have it. I never been inside Foxy's Proper Pub where from outside looked small but it rather big inside. One problem before entering was it looked packed but decided to venture inside like an explorer. I was navigating shoulder to shoulder through people mostly 25 years younger than me where most were holding cups of shiny green beer. I ended up at a long bar under a chandelier made of green Jameson bottles. This room resembled a two story library out of Harry Potter. Lots of of iron, wood, and character, but no wands. As I finally got the attention of one of the many bartenders serving thirsty folks I got my green beer and those behind me were marveling at it. It tasted like a golden ale beer and enjoyed it. Besides green beer looks like on a normal day Foxy's serves a very wide range of authentic Irish mixed drinks, beer and food. It's really a cool place to checkout where I was impressed by what I could see in the massive crowd. There was patio, bar and indoor balcony seating. There was also what looked like a private area seeing a few going through a curtain unless it was the green beer talking. In hindsight the green beer made my day in celebrating St. Patrick's in style. read more

Came in Sunday - no Scotch egg, no salmon dip, waitress was clueless and didn't even know what "champs" were on the menu. Burger tasted like it was frozen and reheated. They served the Ruben on white instead of Rye. One of the worst dining experiences I've had in Austin over 15 years here read more

We came for the fish and chips. We were not disappointed. We were certainly blessed with a reasonably cool(ish) evening so the outdoor patio area was pleasant. The pub also has a good amount of indoor seating. You order at the bar, they give you a number, and they bring your food to your table. The fish and chips had a nice batter on them, not greasy or soggy. The fish was meaty and moist. The red ale had a nice balance between light and dark (leaning more toward light). The atmosphere is like being in a construction zone, which is just the way things are as Austin is bursting at the seams. All in all, a good experience. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Love this place! Visited for the first time on a Wednesday evening so it was laid back and not too crowded. The bartender was great! Attentive and gave good recommendations. We only came here for drinks but they have bar food as well. The drinks were good and fairly priced. TVs are around the bar playing sports so I imagine this is a good place to come for game days that's like a sports bar but still has class. Nice location in Austin within walking distance to other bars. Will be back! read more

On our quest to find the best fish and chips in Texas, we happened upon this spot while in Austin. We started with the beer cheese. I was expecting a totally different dish, but I was not disappointed either. The cheese had good flavor and was easy to spread on the bread provided. I topped my bread with the cheese and then the walnuts provided. It really elevated it. The pickles it came with were good too. The fish and chips: pretty good. The batter was crunchy and not too thick. The fries were good. Now the ketchup they serve is curried ketchup. While it's not bad, it just didn't go well with my fries. They were able to give me regular ketchup. They also have malt vinegar available. For drinks, we stuck with Irish liquor. I ordered the Belfast- their version of an old fashion. I give two thumbs up. Located downtown, but not in a busy area. They have inside and outside seating. They also upstairs seating that gives you a good view of the bar. Parking is either garage or street parking. We did find a garage about one block down for $10. read more

Absolutely love this place. Abby was the best server I've had in a long time. Food was great. Vibes were great. Will be back again!

Decent little spot right downtown. Definitely more of a soccer pub than a football bar (NFL, college - USA football), but nice staff, reasonable prices, and they were kind enough to change a TV to the Denver game. Really cool chandelier made out of Jameson bottles. We also were pleasantly surprised by a fun and tasty menu with items like Scotch Eggs, wings, and more... read more

Stopped back and guess what? COLD beer! Same great service and food. So happy to have Foxy's back in our list!

We held our event here and Caitlin was amazing in making sure everything was setup to ensuring the success of the event. The staff was extremely easy to work with and the food was really good! read more

Come for the service - I came in on my first night in town just as the kitchen was closing. We were in the middle of asking if they had any recommendations nearby when they offered to keep the kitchen running and make us the last order of the night. Then later, on my last night in town, I came by again at the moment everything ELSE had shut down and I was having trouble finding the late night Coke my partner was craving. Sophia behind the bar fixed me up like it was nothing and made me the hero. The staff couldn't have been more convivial at every interaction. And if you don't come for the service, come for the food - my date and I split some very nice fish and chips, plus a hot pretzel that left "very nice" in the dust. Every element was better than it needed to be, but most of all I recommend the mustard that came with the pretzel. It was spicy, robust and very fresh tasting. I tried to buy some to take home and confirmed, not unexpectedly, it's made in house. I will certainly be coming back the next time I'm in Austin! read more

Great Pub when you see it, the interior is amazing and set up. However, the service needs to be improved. I went in and sat at the bar, I was there for 15 minutes not once did the bartender ask me "can I get you anything? Or here's a menu." She never knowledge me once. I waited till I heard her say the kitchen is close so I got up and left because the reason I went was for food and drinks. The service was just terrible and very disappointing. I hope that in the future they can change that for their business. read more

12 of us stopped by for drinks and snacks. Luckily we were able to find a big table and a big screen TV (March madness finals) but our TV only showed some sort of home building adds while the tv in the bar area had the game on (but we couldn't see it and they couldn't or wouldn't change ours). We all got drinks--they were ok. French fries ok. Pretzil board was excellent--best pub cheese my adult son has ever had (in his words). Service was sub optimal--perhaps because our waitress was also tending bar. At least she was a happy/pleasant person. We had a hard time getting the bill and were told to wade through 2 layers of barflys to get the bill from the bar--we refused. Finally she brought the bill and we were amazed to see a 25% mandatory tip. 20% is standard for a large group--25% for poor service is outrageous. If it weren't for the pretzil board and pub cheese they would get 2 stars not 3. I would not come again with a group. read more

A great place for drinks and delicious food! I love scotch eggs and this was one of the best I've had! The staff was super friendly as well, and love the big outdoor space where I was able to have my dog. Next time I'm in Austin I'll stop by again! read more

When Austin lost Fado, the go-to Irish pub, we never really got another proper pub with amazing food until now. This place will be my go to spot to watch soccer. The food is awesome ! Can't really go wrong with anything on the menu, although lamb sliders are my favorite. The ambience is amazing ! Bartenders are chill ! Dog friendly place as well.. although I wish they had more TVs outside. read more

The service was not good at Foxy's. The bartenders weren't friendly and seemed annoyed by our business. They were much nicer when their regulars came in for the Jets game two hours after we got there. Then the bartenders turned off the game we were watching with 2 minutes left, after we'd been there the whole game watching, having drinks and tipping them well. Would not recommend to anyone in the downtown area. read more

A great atmosphere and excellent service and food. I had the burger & fries and a couple of Guinness pints the first night. I came back the next night for fish & chips and a couple more pints of Guinness. Heather and the staff made sure everything was perfect. The bartender even hooked me up with some cocktail sauce for my fish, which required him to go next door and snag some horseradish. We had an amazing time playing (and winning) trivia on Thursday night. Make sure you check out Foxy's when you are in downtown Austin. it is definitely worth the trip. You won't be disappointed. read more

We had a great group outing at Foxy's Proper Pub. If you have a group you should consider this venue!

A bunch of scum bags for servers and bartenders. They overcharge your card thinking you won't notice. And if you don't fit their ideal "demographic" prepare to be shown the exit. read more
