We had such a lovely experience stopping in here with our family while visiting from Michigan. From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed, especially thanks to Cade, who was truly one of the friendliest and most helpful waiters we've had. He went above and beyond, not only taking great care of us but also sharing helpful tips and insights about Austin that made our visit even more special. I loved the self-serve taps, it was fun and unique! I tried the cherry cider, and it was delicious...crisp, refreshing, and just the right amount of flavor. The $5 appetizers were a fantastic bonus! Everything about our visit felt thoughtful and well done. Whenever we find ourselves in Austin again, this will definitely be one of our first stops. read more

Service was great overall, no complaints there. Happy hour is only for food which i wouldve loved to know beforehand, there's no information on it on their website, which is full of AI photos of their drinks, food, and restaurant. The overall vibe kf the building was cold and industrial, which i didnt get from their pictures on their instagram and website. The food was decent and worth the happy hour price, probably note any more than that, drinks also just fine. Overall, I think the use of AI should be omitted. Take pride in your actual food and drinks! Would be much more interested in coming back if i knew what i was walking into. read more

There is great dining near campus, and you can find it if you walk past Tapville. I give this place 2 stars; it would have earned just 1, but the staff were friendly and tried their best. The other positive remark I can make is that there was a soccer game on the TV, but even that ended after 30 minutes. We could excuse the abundance of dirty tables, especially after a bunch of people leave at once. But I can't abide the food; it wasn't good. For a place that serves brunch, having bad coffee is a no-go. Pasta that is served dark brown and without sauce is a negative. I could go on about how poor the food was, but the only conclusion I could reach is that the kitchen staff was either untrained or short-staffed, as was the rest of the establishment. Management was present; we saw 2 people who seemed to be at the management level. I don't like to assume, but if both of them had spent less time reminiscing at the same guest's table, maybe they could have better supported the rest of the staff. One manager brought food to our table forgot his way back with the water we requested. The second manager liked to walk his dog through the restaurant; our last view of him was him sitting at the bar, drinking with other guests. It looked like water, but the memory remains more than a day later. read more

Nice location with indoor and outdoor seating, some of it close to the bar and some of it farther away. We were just walking by and ducked in for a quick bite after the museum. Staff were friendly. Even though the place was pretty dead (early afternoon on a Sunday), the food still took a little longer than it should have. The coffee was pretty horrible, but the rest of the food was good, but portions were very trim. I had about 3-4 ounces of cod beneath the batter for a fish and chips entree. The cole slaw, which was described as part of the entree amounted to two tablespoons, less food than the serving of ketchup, which was not a featured description. The slaw was actually yummy, and they can afford to offer a little more. See if you can spot it in my picture. With two entrees and tip we were able to get lunch for just under $60. read more

It's a good place and a nice addition the area over there - maybe sometimes you want to change it up from Scholtz. Fun beer list and the food was pretty good - wings, sliders, pretzel nuggets. Nice vibe inside too. The ppl who worked there were super friendly. Overall it's a good time and would def come back. read more

This place is great for large parties. I went with friends and we were around 12 people and it worked perfectly for an after work drink. The food was decent, and the tacos were good. I ordered a zero proof cocktail flight but honestly it wasn't my favorite. My friends had beers and said they were good. The vibe is nice and the service was very good. They give you a token to track what you order and you just pay everything at the end, which makes it easy for groups. Also, there's plenty of parking around. Overall, a good spot to hang out with friends, especially if you're going with a big group. read more

I was very happy to see that a new restaurant had popped up near the University of Texas campus because dining and drinking options are virtually nonexistent near Moody Center. I stopped by just before a scheduled concert and discovered that they opt for a limited menu when anticipating a surge of concert goers. The limited menu didn't seem as appealing as their full menu, but I understand their reasoning for it. I like the concept of pouring your own beers (similar to the Wanderlust wine spot), but the beer pricing is more expensive than basically anywhere else in town. An approx 16oz pour of Hi Sign Violet ran me about $12, so this is def not the place to sit, camp for a while and drink. As stated earlier, the regular food menu seemed great, so I'll likely return to check it out. read more

A friend and I went the week of their grand opening before a concert at the Moody Center. When we checked in, we were asked to put down a card and were given a card for their "on tap" options. Our server was great - accommodating our food preferences/requests and checking in as needed without being pushy or avoidant. The sliders were delicious & the fries were nice and crispy. The drinks were on the stronger side (we shared the margarita flight) but they were good. Surprisingly, my favorite was the blueberry one! Their happy hour deals are great - and it's location makes it easy to get to nearby entertainment read more

I have mixed feelings about this spot. For starters, I think it is a great location for UT Students or those in the area for a concert or event however, parking and traffic are insane during the evening. The website states they validate parking but there isn't any signage letting customers know which garage is correct. The designated garage has two entrances, one for Retail Only of which access was denied and another with signs for ERS. A law abiding citizen would enter the Retail Only side but as stated above, access was denied. Only after calling was I notified to enter on the ERS side. After finally finding parking, we were seated promptly. They weren't that busy for a Taco Tuesday. I ordered the Magarita Flight and the Taco Flight. The margaritas are much smaller than they appear online. However, they were good. Also, for the taco flight, they ran out of corn for the elote taco so it was replaced with fried cauliflower. The flight consisted of fried cauliflower, chicken, steak, and fried avocado. While I can complain about not being able to try the elote taco, the fried cauliflower taco was a great choice as a replacement. In fact, it was the best taco on the flight to me! My visit wasn't horrible and now that I slightly know the ins and outs, I would like to try them again. Especially for their brunch and drinks on tap. read more

Angelo! Great experience with family. Atmosphere is nice, large windows, bright spot, food is okay, but staff is terrific [led by Angelo!]. Shower vs shot? Lemon drop is delicious! We will be back! read more

Tapville This is the soft opening, so I'm excited to see how it improves over time. On Wednesday, they have half the taps, which is a huge plus! It's going to be a great spot to unwind after work. Honestly, I think it might be a bit pricey for what it offers, but I think the location might be a factor. It's definitely going to be a popular spot, especially once the patio furniture is added! Food we tried: Santa Fe Eggroll - okay Elote - okay Fries - good Chicken bacon ranch Wrap - which had crispy tortilla( but need to eat it quick it doesn't get soggy from the tomato- good read more

We waited a long time for a server to check in on us. When we tried to order the $12 taco tuesday taco flight special the waiter first tried to act like he didn't know what we were talking about. I politely told him it was on the website under the events section. I had also booked an open table reservation and selected the $12 taco tuesday. He then proceeds to tell us that the kitchen couldn't it and so I asked "oh they aren't making food?" which would be fine if they weren't making food. But he then tells us the cooks hate when people order taco tuesdays so the story just kept changing. Ive also worked in restaurants and people blame the cooks when they don't want to look bad. He then tried to upsell us to the street tacos which was odd to me bc why would the cooks be fine with street tacos and not the special? He tried to make it seem like he was doing us a solid and then say it'd take a long time. Meanwhile as we waited we saw others around order it and and get served in a reasonable amount of time. it felt like he just wanted us to spend more to get larger tip. He rarely checked on us after our food was served. We wanted to order more drinks but he never came back. Terrible experience overall. read more

Taco Tuesdayyyyyy I decided to try out Tapville on Taco Tuesday. When I walked in a was greeted with a warm welcome . I got the taco flight and the zero proof flight. Unfortunately, main zero proof base that is typically used was unavailable. I talked to the bartender about tweaking them and using what was available. He used a spiced rum base and it was good in all of my drinks. I would suggest having Ritual Zero Proof on hand to avoid not being able to do certain drinks for the zero proof drinks. My server was amazing and I enjoyed my experience with the service. The ambiance was clean and calm! Taco flight: Avocado taco- Nothing special, it was just a fried avocado. The flavor wasn't special. Steak/beef- It was flavorful, but had a unique flavor that I couldn't quite explain Chicken- The chicken taco was dry, the flavor wasn't bad though Fried mushroom - This was available because the elote taco wasn't. This taco was the star of the show. This needs to be on the menu! My favorite taco: mushroom My least favorite: avocado Zero Proof flight: Wild berry whisper Bloom noir Sol y limon Citrus spritz Honestly I enjoyed them all! The wild berry whisper and Sol y limon were my favorites. I will definitely come back for brunch read more

This spot is brand new--just opened a few days ago--and already feels like it's on its way to becoming a popular hangout. The location is excellent, especially for anyone coming from the UT Swim Center, the football stadium, or nearby State offices looking to unwind after work. The vibe is trendy yet welcoming, with a good mix of food options, plenty of beer taps, and creative cocktails. For a place that's only been open three days, they're off to a solid start. As with any new establishment, there are a few kinks still being worked out, but nothing that overshadows the overall experience. Stopped in for lunch and it was both convenient and enjoyable--I can see this becoming a regular go-to spot once they settle into their rhythm. Service was top notch as well. Two items on order were incorrect and they provided a complimentary cheesecake to compensate. Food ordered: LOVE TAPVILLE BRANDED ONTO BUN! 2 fried chicken sandwiches - ordered as fried, came as grilled. When fried, one was slightly over cooked but good. Loved the toasted bun. Chicken bacon wrap - good Brussels sprouts - good We and others around us, all really wanted the fajita bowl but it's only offered after 3pm. PLEASE rethink this option!!!!! read more

This place is ideal and convenient for food before you go to a concert nearby the Moody Center/Bass Concert Hall and the like. If you sign up for their membership, you get $10 to spend on food. It's similar to Wanderlust in that your drink amount is up to you to determine how much you want to drink. So i sampled a bit of cider, sangria and wine. I don't drink beer, and that's what they have most of. It's a fun experience. The food was decent. The staff are super friendly and seem to be putting in effort to show their appreciation of the patrons there and are interactive, come around to see how you're doing and answer any questions. We had the manager update us on the status of our food order because of something that happened in the kitchen. Thanks for that! Fries were good. The salmon entree was overcooked according to my friend. The burger was good as was the flatbread. Check out was kinda rough but I think the staff are still learning to work with each other and communicate who does what. I would recommend giving yourself 1.5 hours here if you want to eat before a show. They validate at one of the garages for up to 2 hours too. Then take a pedi-cab to your show or walk 10-15 minutes. read more

We ordered the taco flight and some things off of the $5 happy hour menu and everything was great!! The drinks were strong and the customer service was great from Quinton and Bree. I loved the vibe and it was very clean read more

We went here for lunch on a weekday which is clearly not the popular time to be here :) Our waiter was very nice and helpful but our food took a long time to come out. I got the taco flight which is only available on Tuesdays and the tacos were just okay. The elote was very tasty though! And the crispy cauliflower bites were really good. I'd love to come back for a happy hour and try out the beer wall! read more

My first time to Austin and my first bar to visit. Everyone was so friendly. The restaurant has a bar and a good amount of tables to sit at. I ordered the fish and chips and they were great. I just removed some of the batter but the fish was tender, and nice and hot. Everyone from check in was all very friendly. They have beers on tap which you can pour yourself and the prices are on each one. The Longhorns were playing across the street so it was not that busy, I'm sure it will be packed when the game is done. read more

Overnighting in Austin for work. I got out and walked to enjoy the weather. While walking i happen to walk by this place. Being that i was a bit hungry i decided to stop in. I walked in and a young lady from the bar got up and walked to the door to greet me. So i decided to sit at the bar. I sat there for almost 5 mins before someone came out to serve me. Today i was served by Frankie. I appreciate the amazing hospitality. Gave great suggestions. I ended up going with the grilled chicken sandwich and I will say that it was delish! Fries were hot! I had Frankie make me a blueberry lemon drop. It was ok. Wasn't bad. But overall I'd return! Thank you guys! read more

I'm a state employee and this was my first visit. I had the avocado tacos, which were really good although a little pricey. The only knock I can give this place was their entree menu not being available until 3:00PM. This location is right next to UT and state office buildings that are full of hungry employees looking for something new. If I wasn't there on the clock, I'd enjoy a pint of beer. Maybe next time! read more

Hate making decisions? Want a little taste of everything? This is the spot for you! Take your destiny into you own hands with the self-serve tap wall, priced by the ounce, that include beer, wine, cider, and hard seltzer. Sure, it'll add up pretty quickly, but it's a great way to taste new things before committing to a full glass. There are also cocktail flights offered if you're more of a mixed drink person, plus mocktails, dirty sodas, coffee, and more. Food leans heavily into snacks and small plates, emphasizing comfort foods and fried cravings. The crispy avocado is by far my favorite of these. It's not really a place for a full meal, but in the right company, it can be a lot of fun. read more

What a great location for all events near or on UT campus! The space is very clean. I really enjoyed the beer on tap method--it was easy and had a great variety. We got to enjoy some appetizers, cheese curds and Brussels sprouts, and they were delicious. The people working and serving were very kind and helpful as well. Overall, great experience especially for pre/post UT events! read more

The Brunch here is so good. I had the sunrise burger and it was probably one of the best burgers ive had. The fall coffee flight was delicious and well worth the price! The staff is so friendly and goes over everything very thoroughly if your new to tapville. My boyfriend had the apple cinnamon french toast which was also very delicious. Kids are welcome during brunch. And they have such a wide variety of ciders to try, its tempting not to get them all .Its very clean and very spaced between tables which is nice and it definetly has more a bar feel than a restaurant. Will definetly be back to try the rest of the menu! read more

I HATE EVERYTHING about this place! (All the 5 star ratings are 100% Bullshit and are from new accounts and 'people' with 0 other reviews! Hmmm not suspicious at all) Just stop with this bullshit concept of 'self serve' wine, beer vending machines. The stupid 'vending machines' never work right and they always over charge and the staff never seem to know wtf is going on. It's chaos where there doesn't need to be any. It takes a night out and turns it into a working shift that YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR! Please tell me... why is 20% auto gratuity added to the full bill when I had to serve my own drinks!? (Yeah you can F' right off with that BS) It's the restaurant/bar equivalent of the self checkout lane at Walmart. Speaking of Walmart Tapville has all the style, atmosphere and charm of a Super Walmart clearance section, but with less bang for your buck. Our Experience: We went with a group of 4. Checked in and were automatically asked for a credit card 'to open a tab'. In return we were given a 'scan card' with ZERO other instructions! Ok so apparently at this place you get 'the joy' of getting up and serving yourself beer from vending machines which CHARGE BY THE ONCE!!! Ok so ONE scan card and 4 people! How does that work we asked? Oh you each need to go one at a time and use the same card, the server told us. WHAT!!? Why!? How obnoxious is that!? Ok so my wife's beer came out as 98% foam! Which she was charged $14 dollars for! I went up a got a glass that was about 8oz but was charged for 14oz $15. My friend went up and the card stopped working. We had to go back and stand in a line to wait for them to 'reset the card'. Man, we just wanted to go out and grab a drink and food before a concert we DID NOT want to work a service shift at this shit excuse for a bar/restaurant. I CAN NOT EXPRESS HOW MUCH I HATED THIS PLACE. To call it SOULLESS is an understatement. I will be actively rooting for this place to fail. read more

Food-fajita bowl was very shareable and delicious Service was very courteous TAYLOR was our girl AMBIANCE a really great place to take a friend, date, get together THE ability to fill your own glass of various self-pour tap beer and cider CHEESECAKE was the perfect share as well. read more

Tapville sent a quick 5 question survey in exchange for $10 off to try their new restraunt which includes a coffee flight! Smores, maple bacon, butter pecan and a boozy option or you can choose one more. My friend ordered it and I got a really delish harvest salad. The server was cool, the booths were comfy, and around the corner was a whole building length of taps, I cluding wine, normal beer, and crazy versions of beer. We had fun, and I think Tapville is a great spot for big portions of decent food downtown. The surrounding buildings all have interesting architecture too- hipster bonus:) read more

Good happy hour with $5 bites. Everything we had was good. Service was friendly. Will definitely be back!

Tapville's menu looks tasty until you get your food and realize that all the apps that say are for 2+ people are for a child. They are tiny and expensive. The beer selection is pretty great, won't be back for food. Excellent staff, just the food was eh. read more

Make sure to pay attention to the amount of beer you serve yourself, as well as how much the machine says it was dispensed. It didn't seem to match for us. Not to mention the price per oz. We asked our waiter how many ounces were in the plastic cup we were given and he started acting defensive and never answered our question. read more

Charged me $35for a single plastic cup of margarita... Absolutely insane. Horrible vendor tries to rip people off left and right.

The manager Quintin and Josh were excellent! I was not impressed when I got in due to me being asked for a credit card. I get the process but it was shocking. I think there could be a better system for checkin. Other that food was excellent service was excellent. Josh waiter, Angelo, Quinton(Manger) you all are amazing. I will be coming back asking for you. Sorry if I messed the Mangers name up. Ambiance was excellent. They handle crowds well. ​ read more

The staff is so friendly and accommodating! So casual and fun! And super attentive. We were spoiled! Love the experience of the tap wall. Drinks were great! Food was great! Do wish the fish and chips was a bit more "traditional" with an actual filet but they still get 5 stars because their service was top tier! read more

Food was amazing! We started with the buffalo chicken dip and we were very satisfied. Then my friend had the chicken bacon ranch wrap and I had the Cajun pasta and both were really good. The fries, OMG to die for. I also had fall cocktail flight which was ok, and my friend had a maya drink which was too sweet but ok. Our server was Elizabeth and she took great care of us and told us some interesting stories about Austin. We are definitely coming back!! No pictures, we were to hungry and forgot to take them! read more

Tapville Social hosted an event for a group that sold online tickets before the event. However, Tapville did not check tickets, so a bunch of people without tickets filled the event space and displaced the rest of us who were unable to be directly in the room with the speaker. They also didn't get the presenter's TV set up. Literally the worst event I've ever been to. The manager apologized and offered half-off the beer, but it will be the last time I come here. read more

Place was a ripoff and service was in a whirlwind. Staff had no idea how to handle a slight crowd. The fired chicken sandwich was great but the drinks were piss poor. The beer prices were offensive. Wouldn't recommend it unless you really love spending money. Very overpriced read more

This was our first time in Austin and we were introduced to tapville one afternoon for a social event. The food was so tasty and flavorful that we decided to come back for dinner after the football game. Great service, great food, and great value! Will definitely return when we visit Austin again. read more

The service was fine but would never go there for the food. The happy hour dishes were a laugh. They were tiny dishes of chopped up stuff. The amount is equivalent to a Gerber baby jar. $5 was even too much for them. Got an appetizer too and paid $12 for cauliflower bites that consisted of less than 12 tiny breaded fried cauliflower. There was so much deadspace between the pieces. It was basically a fistful of food. Just terrible. My partner has a $20 Mac n cheese and he said it was mediocre. At least that was a normal amount. The taps are an interesting concept but be prepared to pay Alot to serve yourself. $11 per beer at least for 12oz. I got a white sangria about 7oz for $9 and it was so awful, I couldn't drink it all. Syrupy and tasted like soap. Made me want to gag. Our table had water dripping from the pipes above which made our food more unappetizing. The only good thing I had was the blueberry rum drink they made that was $14. It's a good location but that is it. It is too high priced for what the quality they offer. I don't mind paying Alot for food if it is actually good. read more
