    Late night fee
    James B.

    Stayed here from 8-11 and got charged a 20% "Late night fee" on top of tip. You're a neighborhood bar, what the hell?

    This is one of the neighborhood bars in the Austin Ranch community. I kept driving by and my husband and I finally decided to stop by. We were both starving and decided to get food and he got a beer as well. We brought our puppy and were able to sit on the patio. We didn't know at first but you have to walk in to get service. Our server was super sweet and we loved how kind she was to our dog too. The food wasn't bad however the portions were small. The chicken fried steak sandwich is not how it's traditionally made. Think McDonald's McChicken but even smaller! And it was 13$! The mac and cheese was 11$ and after eating both entrees unfortunately I still was left hungry. I think if you live close by and want a convenient hang out spot for drinks then this place is a good option. However I wouldn't order food here again- maybe just drinks next time.

    Everything is amazing. Perfect for any occasion be it business or pleasure. There is always something going on and they have amazing deals on drinks. Dog friendly patio, good food, better company. Amazing specials and top notch service If you like something a little more mellow check out their Happy Hour and if you're ready to "shake" it off, "shake" it off go later in the evening. Either way you're guaranteed a fun time. Would visit again.

    Great service and decent flatbreads. If you come before 7, you can sit anywhere otherwise they have a club like structure and the tables are reserved. I was surprised to see bottle service and sparklers at 8 pm. Lol

    Well, if you are in the area and you want a nice bar to chill with some games and pool, this is the place. The whole bar vibe is great and there is a DJ in the house. Shout-out to Jennifer for her great service. Overall, a decent place to hangout. Parking might be difficult as spaces are limited and there are other bars and shops around. No covid restrictions applied (I guess it is because of the State rule but if you want a place with full covid restrictions, this ain't it)

    Living here is one thing. Having a great hometown bar that understands you and caters to your family, friends , and coworkers. Almost impossible... Brad and the Shakes staff does the impossible.

    The waitress was attentive and helpful. The food was better than I expected. We had the blackened chicken quesadilla but we ate it so fast I didn't get a picture. They also show the UFC fight.

    Saw the photos of the burgers and have been looking forward to coming in and trying one! But while waiting for the burgers, we saw some pizzas delivered to the table by us that also looked delicious and already planning next visit. The burgers were so dang good, definitely did not disappoint. Not your typical bar food, this is actually quality food.

    Friendly & amazing bartenders, great drinks, and a good time! Ask Nirvana for one of her speciality drinks (THEY'RE AMAZING).

    IT was good. Service great but memo... menu online is not there menu. It is a full menu online for other restaurants. So a bit disappointed, looking forward to onion rings

    Is it a good place for dancing?

    No it's not. The music is horrible and not a lot of space.

    Do they have live jazz music?

    No, they have a Dj for certain events. But I'll be glad to mention it next time I'm in there.

Music was loud enough to where I could hear my husband across the table but not anyone else around me. We could still hear the comforting sound of the fountain and fans that blew a cooling mist too! We ordered the pretzel bites as an appetizer and it came out in literally 60 seconds. Bread didn't taste like pretzels, but it was tasty and the sauces yummy. Like, I could order the bites and some beers and be perfectly content. But I was here for the fish n chips and I was so happy! I'd have preferred a full filet of fish, but the batter was so crispy and salty (I love salt!). Fries were okay and basic but not bad with malt vinegar (I can literally drink that stuff!). Husband got the elite brisket flatbread. It was huge and honestly we'll probably just split this next time we come. It was delicious and back of the throat spicy, but the toppings were outstanding and brisket was tender!! Service was soooo quick and easy and the waitress has the decency to look away as you tip. I was so impressed with this experience! I'm an introvert and hate trying to new things, but this may be my favorite spot now! We were there 7/11/26 at 12 pm. Our fantastic server was young and blonde and very polite and professional! 7/5 stars!!

We ordered the Boss Hog flatbread, chips and queso, and two margaritas the Skinny Bear on the rocks and the Caddy frozen margarita. We definitely enjoyed the happy hour discounts, which made the visit even better. We started with our drinks, and both margaritas were mixed very well. The Skinny Bear did seem a little stronger, but both had great flavor and were easy to enjoy. For appetizers, we ordered the chips and queso. The chips were thin, crispy, and had a nice dash of seasoning on them, but we do wish they had been served hot. The queso was warm, but not piping hot, and the texture was a little gritty, almost powder-like. We were expecting a creamier cheese, so it was good, but not our favorite part of the meal. Now, the star of the show was definitely the Boss Hog flatbread. It was cooked to perfection, baked really well, and had that nice crispy texture. The toppings were generous, and every bite had great flavor. I would absolutely order it again. The ambiance was also amazing. We loved being able to see the brewery, and the dim lighting set a cool, relaxed tone. The employees were nice, friendly, and welcoming, which added to the overall experience. I would definitely come back to try more menu items, and I recommend Union Bear for a cute date night, happy hour, or a laid back evening with good drinks and food.

I chose a great day to visit due to the fact it's opening day for the World Cup. The Colony location provided a great atmosphere and opportunity to cheer on Mexico defeating South Africa 2-0. The crowd definitely heavily favored Mexico. The place was packed a testimony to the quality service you will receive there. My server was Madelynn and she couldn't have been better. I wanted to get in early to get a spot since I'm visiting from Florida. I wasn't sure how quickly it would fill up. Madelynn was exceptional and very attentive. She made great recommendations and told me about their Dos Equis contest. I drank a few to help out her sales. I never had to ask for anything and her menu knowledge was great. She's got a spectacular look and should be a great brand ambassador for the company. I recently purchased a Rowdy Cowboy 2026 calendar on this trip and hope to see her in next years edition. She's going to be a great promotional girl. Thank you Michael J Beal Clearwater, Florida

Being from out of town and making a quick day trip into Dallas we had no idea what it is ... lol The atmosphere is a sports bar vibe with college aged girls in basically string bikinis serving drinks and bar food. The food wasn't 4.7 stars. Maybe 1.2 stars at most but we all know why the ratings are 4.7. We ordered a burger and 3 brisket/queso baked potatoes. The burger was burnt on the outside and raw on the inside. The cheese on the burger was fried. As for the baked potato ... the brisket wasn't great but it being smothered in queso cheese helped it tremendously. I'll just say, men don't eat here for the food.
