I am immediately greeted with parties of 2-5 people all talking--felt like social bar vibes. Still a great place to study if you like background noise like I do. The drink of choice for today is a cold brew with a splash of whole milk; it is phenominal. Surprised the place is this packed at this hour. Great place to socialize with friends, catch up with an ex, and eat/drink great food.

They have sweet selection of fancy cocktails, craft beer and crap beer and damn near the coolest, nicest bar staff in the whole city. I like the new focus on live music. The Raven Room reminds me of the old lost well stage and so far the booking has been solid. I've already seen several great shows there. The patio is cool and he new areas where a tattoo artist can set up and the cool thrift store area also only add to the charm of the place. Crow Bar is a good time and totally worth visiting! I have as of yet not tried the pizza. I do love Chicago tavern style pizza and that's kind what they have here looks like. I'm looking forward to lots more fun at the new Crow Bar! P

The owner even opened a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc so I could enjoy a glass which I really appreciated because it's not offered by the glass. I did try to make a reservation online but ended up calling instead. It was a bit amusing since the restaurant was nearly empty when we arrived, aside from one table and only one other couple came in by the time we finished our meal.

I ordered the Cajun surf and turf (shrimp) on a bed of garlic noodles. Everything was cooked perfectly. The steak was crazy tender and well seasoned, the shrimp had a nice pop, and I could have JUST had a plate of noodles; they were that good. The Cajun sauce complemented everything well. Even the smattering of green beans, which were probably there to add color, were outstanding. The restaurant itself was comfortable ...which is a compliment. The parking was easy. The service was outstanding. The prices were ...lower than they should have been given how delicious the food was. I will definitely recommend CK Kitchen and Bar to my friends. We came here for a birthday dinner, but with Mother's Day and graduation around the corner, I can't think of a better spot. Well done, CK.

The covered area has a large TV, and they also have a stage for entertainment. They now have two food trucks: one for Tacos and one for burgers. The bartenders are great, always friendly and make tasty cocktails. I always appreciate a rotating menu, and love to try their new items. I sometimes stop by just for some caffeine and to get some work done, as they open quite early and have a "refreshments" menu aside from their cocktail menu.

Okay. Never even knew about this place. But ya, this is a cool bar. It's like dark inside like…read moresomething you'd see in a shady movie. And then the patio outside has a large covered area. And an open area, and it just feels like Austin. (IYKYK) So the bar is pretty large. And there's a U shaped couch seating with tables along the walls. Of course bar seating around the bar too. When I arrived around 7pm, they were still doing happy hour. I ordered a frozen Shirley Temple with vodka, and wow! Was that good. It's just in a machine they pour and top it with a cherry. Everyone saw my drink, and the whole group ran in to get one too. It was $4.00! Delicious drink. I would totally fight SXSW traffic on a Friday night for that drink again. Bartender was outstanding. We chatted for a few seconds. And when I gave him my card to open a tab, he laughed. My credit card looks like a blockbuster card. So we talked about the good Ol' days of Blockbuster. Inside and out, the bar was awesome. Had a great night. Was nice to see everyone come out and mingle and catch up. Parking is a little tight, and the parking lot is like a bowl. You are basically parking on a hill all around. I parked over by the businesses and walked over.

I came with a friend and she got an espresso martini and I got a fig syrup based cocktail. We both loved our drinks, mine was very unique (I've never had a fig flavored cocktail before!) but it was a little pricey given they aren't big. They're pretty strong though, the bartender does a good job. It was surprisingly busy the night we came and there was only one bartender so we did have to wait about 10 min to order, but that bartender was working hard! They have some seats/high tables inside, and a cute free photo booth that doesn't print the pics but will email them to you. Overall I think this is a cute spot to sit and chat; it's more casual than most bars but it's got a nice/safe ambiance inside.

I liked that some of the cocktails were named with love themes like "Lovebird" and "Head Over Heels." I ordered the "Texas Peach" mocktail and it was so refreshing! The bartender here was so great.

They have a few food trucks on site, but I've only ever tried the BBQ, which is quite tasty. I usually go to Drinks to watch some sports, one-off events, or to have a quick drink with friends before ending the night. It's certainly not a "cocktail bar", but they have some good drinks on their menu. The bartenders are super friendly, they have some fun board games to play, a pool table, and there's a cat who lives there who's pretty cute. Overall, lucky to have Drinks Backyard in the neighborhood.

The large outdoor space is definitely one of the highlights -- plenty of room for groups, watching sports games, or just enjoying the weather. They also have live music on Saturday nights, which adds a really fun energy to the place without feeling too overwhelming. It's not trying to be a super upscale cocktail bar, but for good drinks, good vibes, and a casual night out with friends, it's a great neighborhood spot.

I ordered 2 steak tacos and horchata, both very delicious. The horchata is milky and sweet but not crazy sweet, and topped off with cinnamon. The steak tacos came out pretty hot, fresh from the grill. I got them on corn tortillas and I'm glad I did: idk if they make them in house but somebody in some house is making these because they definitely aren't store bought, and if they are I want to know where! I tried the orange habanero and creamy serrano salsas. The habanero was spicy off the bat, while the serrano had more of a lingering burn. Both paired well with the steak. They have a little bar, too, though I did not imbibe this time. Seems like they have a decent selection of agave spirits, and even Campari behind the bar (iykyk). Give them a shot, and thank the ladies in the kitchen.
