    The League Tavern is a gastropub…read more "Gastropub". That word is so 2010's. A decade ago calling yourself a "gastropub" was the coolest thing in the hospitality industry. Now, it is a lost artifact of another decade, along with Swedish House Mafia and Britney Spears. The League calls itself a retro reminder of the eating clubs of the 1920's and 1930's. It is pretty damm good as a gastropub. It would not really want to be an eating club of the Prohibition era. Menus in that era could be pretty awful. Mashed parsnips. Liver and onions. Greens that have been cooked to death. Tough steaks. Low quality lager beer. The Indian Puddings were all right. The fish was great if it was fresh. I wish they would bring back Welsh Rarebit. But the League sticks to a contemporary menu ... And I am glad they do. Their contemporary dishes are just great. I had a faro salad with grilled shrimp on top. The faro salad was everything I would want a grain salad to be. (I have had some awful tabboulehs and quinoa salads in my time.) The shrimp were completely lovely. Prices are high - but that is what comes with being a gastropub. The concept is: Pay more. Eat higher quality. The Lakeway market will certainly support the League in the prices it wants to charge. The selection on the menu - and for that matter the selection at the bar - is fairly restricted. Having a small menu is not a necessary correlate of being a gastropub. Some gastropubs offer you an expansive range of choices. But careful management of the menu choices means that each and every dish can be polished to a high degree of execution finesse. Practice makes perfect. My guess is that the League envisions itself as a neighborhood place - albeit a rich neighborhood place. Their customers are likely to be regulars. The regulars order their favorite dishes over and over. I myself like my bars and grills to be Cheaper, Funkier and With bigger selections on the menu and at the bar itself. So the League is not exactly my style. But what they do, they do well. They are expanding, opening more branches in more locations. They can do this because the League fills a real need in the Lakeway-Bee Cave market. If a Lakeway resident were to invite me to be their guest at the League Tavern, I would be happy to accept that invitation. Especially if they were picking up the check.

    I placed an order online to pick up in the restaurant. The…read moreonline ordering was easy. I scrolled through the menu, added what I wanted to the cart. I placed macaroni and cheese and brussels sprouts in the cart. Placed the order. I got a text message and an email of my recipe. 11 minutes later I got a text saying that it was ready to pick up. I walked in to the restaurant. It wasn't very busy. I waited not even a minute when a nice women came up to me. She asked if I was picking up an order. I said yes. And said my name, I was trying to get to my text message with my receipt, she already had my bag and was walking back to me. Super quick service. By the time I got home, Urg, traffic on 620, seriously!! The food was warm/hot, so I heated it up for a couple minutes in the toaster oven. The macaroni is actually big shells, and I love that cause the cheese gets inside of the shell and it's cheesy gooey. Cheese was fantastic. Really enjoyed the Mac. Brussels sprouts I feel were just steamed. They didn't have that chard crispy outside. Just plan steamed sprouts. My small meal was delicious. Hoping to actually eat inside and have a cocktail.

    The Best Sunset & Sips in Texas!…read more My husband and I drove down from Fort Worth last weekend, and Oasis Texas Brewing Company was easily the highlight of our trip. If you're looking for the perfect mix of food, fun, and vibes, this is it!The Atmosphere: You cannot beat the view of Lake Travis. We spent the whole afternoon on the patio watching the sunset--it's hands down the best seat in the Hill Country. The vibe is super relaxed and much more "local" and laid-back than the neighboring restaurant.The Food: We were blown away by the quality. The Parmesan Truffle Fries and award-winning wings were the perfect brewery snacks, and my husband loved the Lakeside Cheeseburger. Everything was fresh and came out fast.The Drinks: Their craft beer selection is top-tier. I highly recommend the Luchesa Lager if you want something crisp, or the Metamodern Session IPA if you like a little hop. They even have creative cocktails like the Ghost Spicy Rita for something with a kick.The Experience: Between the live music and the friendly staff, the energy was amazing. It's the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a beautiful Texas day.Bottom line: We will definitely be making the drive from DFW again soon. Cheers to great beer and even better views! #oasistexasbrewing @oasistexasbrewing #buzzybooth

The Asian fries today were AMAZING--so unique with a huge portion, and I especially loved the Strawberry Limeade light lager. My only complaint is the elevator has been broken for years, so my elderly mother and elderly dog are unable to enjoy Oasis Brewing because they can't do the stairs. Thank you, also, for doing Barks for Beers each year!
