    Turkey club with sweet potato fries
    Steve O.

    The place has a very friendly, neighborly feel to it. I ordered the turkey club with the sweet potato fries and both were very good. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. This would be a great place to watch some games or meetup with friends

    Wings Half Pound

    Solid restaurant on the east side of Austin. They have a beer list with over 100 beer options that regularly rotate. For food, you can't go wrong with the chicken wings. They have tons of TVs if you are a sports fan. There's an outdoor patio and indoor seating as well.

    Nothing fancy, just easy drinking and a chill sports bar. The drinks are cheap, the atmosphere is relaxed, and it's a good spot to catch a game without any fuss. I tried one of their mystery shots and got the dirty monkey (banana peanut butter whiskey), which was surprisingly good plus a couple of margaritas, which were decent for the price.

    My first time at Haymaker and I went with colleagues. They've got a terrific happy hour and a big selection of beers and cocktails. Food is typical bar fare...on steroids! Meaning they've taken the typical fare and raised it by a crazy number of notches. Breaded/fried pretzel bites? Yes, please! Sausage balls? Yes, please. BLT is a perfect comfort food sandwich. Really chill place to hang with co-workers, friends, etc. Super attentive service.

    Haymaker has good social vibes outside and has more of a dive bar feeling inside. It is optimal for socializing with a big group. They have daily drink specials, although I didn't get a drink when we went on a Friday because I don't drink margs. Their food and drinks are definitely on the pricer side for a casual sports bar. My friends ordered the garlic parmesan wings, which they really enjoyed. I got the hay-mac and cheese, which is a small bowl topped with garlic bread crumbs. It ended up being about $10, which was pricey for such a small portion. I thought it was good but nothing to rave about. The service was friendly.

    Spinach artichoke

    They use to have beer cheese that was SO good - GONE! They use to have homemade chips - GONE So, I ordered the spinach artichoke. I'd rather have the TGIFriday frozen one from HEB. At least that one has flavor. This dip had SO much garlic. The grainy consistency left much to be desired. Do not order this!! This place has changed a lot since I was last here. Can't say it's for the better. Service was meh. Nice girl. Atmosphere hasn't change, so that was comforting. I will think twice before coming back here.

    Salsa and chips

    I met my brother here before a basketball game at Moody Center. The weather was perfect for a nice lunch on their deck. Our waitress was friendly and several different crowds were enjoying sports. One group was watching the football (soccer) game and another group was inside watching American football. It's a great place for sports! I ordered a sangria which was $4 for a Sunday special. We tried the warm salsa -which was on the fall menu. At first, it had a great taste. Then you mostly tasted vinegar. I think warming it brought out too much of the vinegar taste. Maybe a bit of Mexican sour cream on top as the fat to balance the acid?? I got the French dip sandwich which was inedible. I took one bite and there was a bunch of fat. I took another bite and again...mostly fat. I took the sandwich apart to see if there was any redeeming pieces of meat but sadly, no. Even my brother noted how fatty it was. I don't know if it was just a bad cut but it was disappointing. :( I could have used more fries on my plate considering this is all I ate. My brother ordered a Reuben and his sandwich looked amazing!! (See pics) This neighborhood joint has been around for a while. The burgers have always been solid. I wish I had gone with my standby and ordered that instead. The patio is dog friendly and I made some new (dog) friends that day. :)y

    Overall: 4/5…read more Ambiance: 4/5 This is an awesome brewery! I love that outside in the back they have a small play space for kids. There are a lot of tables and there was a big screen up to watch basketball when I visited! I haven't sat inside, but it looks nice as well and much quieter / at least when I visited. Service: 4/5 Had no issues, just ordered at the counter and voi la! Friendly person took our order & the only complaint is there were no cups outside for water - think it's just busy and this happens! Food & Beer 4/5: I had the magic carpet sour and it was very good, although I will say it isn't as sour as a typical sour would be. Nice drink overall and I think someone who isn't a sour fan may still enjoy it - it gives more cider honestly. My friend and I split the veggie quesadillas and the chips and salsa. The veggie quesadilla was good, the mushrooms they put in it were fab - I wouldn't say it's exceptional for the price but it was good. The chips and salsa were also good, but the salsa was a much thicker green and cilantro based something - I wouldn't exactly call it salsa, but it was good, just a bit misleading. I think they should add a descriptor on the menu, salsa usually means red unless otherwise noted imop.

Limited lot parking and mainly have to find street parking. THE BLACK AND WHITE: I came here with the wife in the early morning for a meetup. Parking is very limited and we had to park far down the street. I was hungry and needed my caffeine fix. The tacos did take a while to come out and it was because they forgot my order. I ordered a bacon egg cheese bfast taco, chorizo egg cheese bfast taco and a coffee. Each taco was around $6-$7 which is kind of insane that tacos have gotten that expensive. They were just alright and only flour tortillas. Coffee was given in a nice mug. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Spent around $15 for two breakfast tacos and a coffee. Bfast tacos were alright and I think ill stick to the beers next time.

    Gonna get busted at Busty's…read more This is my favorite dive bar in Austin. This place has personality and charm oozing out the wazoo. You can already tell this place has got character and kitsch to spare. The interior design has an old 70s biker bar with pool tables galore. When you go outside, there are so many artifacts of old on display making the ambience much more immersive. As for the food, I got the chicago dog and onion petals and my friends got various other dishes that we all shard. Perfect bar food. It's bar food so you just gotta expect bar food. But it was all still really good. The fries and petals were seasoned really well and I also got an espresso martini which was heavenly. I wish it had the bean though. The hot dog really got me correct.

    My boyfriend and I have been regulars here for the past year, coming in every 1-2 weeks, spending…read more$50-$100 per visit, and always tipping 20%. Last week, I tried the Mezquito. The drink was good, but the tab felt high. I had watched two bartenders pour a strict 1 oz of Mezcal Union, so I asked the bartender today how much the drink cost. She told me $13. When I noted that felt a bit steep for a 1 oz pour, she shut down and said she didn't set the prices. Later, I was chatting with my boyfriend about how neither Busty's nor Frazier's list drink prices on their menus. The customer sitting next to me jumped into my conversation and said she was just saying the same. I mentioned the Mezquito was $13 for a 1 oz pour. The bartender overheard, looked annoyed, and snapped, "It's actually 1.5 oz." I am unsure why she did not say this earlier when I had first asked. I later tried to smooth things over, suggesting that maybe a newer bartender had just under-poured last week by mistake, adding that 1.5 oz was completely reasonable for the price. Instead of de-escalating, she told me I was cut off because she "didn't appreciate" me talking about the prices to other guests. I am writing this review right after leaving and I think it's clear that I'm not drunk. I have never seen a guest treated so poorly--let alone a regular--simply for discussing menu prices. It's an incredibly poor way to handle a situation. Regulars are the lifeblood of neighborhood bars, but the brunette bartender with the wavy hair just ensured Busty's lost two of theirs.
