Probably the best pot pie in town. Very filling. Tons of chicken. Very tasty. The fish and chips were also very good. The mushy peas were delicious-- had a nice curry flavor. Fries were great too. The peach cobbler was very good-- a ton of fresh fruit. They also have a full coffee bar next door that you order from through your server and your server will bring it to your table. The crab deviled eggs were also good. I like the taste of capers so I really liked them. They are a tad salty if you are watching your sodium. Our server was super friendly and very attentive. Excellent service. The restaurant itself is super cute. I love all the photos on the wall ans the TV screen above the bar that showed different cute messages. This is also 2 min walk from a parking garage on 5th and Brazos if you don't want to deal with parking downtown. Highly recommend! read more

The Dead Rabbit does pub food exactly how it should be done. Every dish feels well executed, and the atmosphere during Christmas is especially festive and memorable. It is on the pricier side, but I think the quality makes it worthwhile. I also absolutely love their Irish coffee martini. It's a fun take on a traditional espresso martini, but in my opinion, it's better in every way. Overall, The Dead Rabbit is a great choice when you're in the mood for elevated pub food, excellent drinks, and a lively atmosphere. read more

The Dead Rabbit - Fish & Chips and Irish Coffee Martini - Irish Pub Near Me - Austin, Texas

I was craving fish and chips when I was planning my trip to Austin over the past weekend (April 16-18, 2026). And, found The Dead Rabbit via a web search. I actually been to The Dead Rabbit, but it was in New York. I found out that this location was related to the one in New York. I was surprised when I arrived that this location that it wasn't crowded being it was a Friday evening during at almost the end of Happy Hour. Seating was available right away. The service was fast, prompt, and professional. The staff were friendly, patient, and courteous. The ambiance was surprisingly not loud where you had to shout your order. Speaking about my order -- yes, I ordered the fish and chips, and a pint of Guinness. The fish and chips were cooked just right. The Guinness tasted like a properly-poured Guinness. It was too bad that I couldn't "split the G." Lol. The next time I'm in Austin, I'll be visiting them again. read more

Good, but a far cry from the New York original. This Dead Rabbit is more akin to a well off dive bar which caters to older 20 somethings that enjoy Irish whiskey. It's loud, it's grungy, it's fun if you're in a group and especially if you're buzzed. The cocktails are obviously good but almost too good given the environment because the ambiance says fast fun while the drinks say speakeasy. I'd return if they rotate new cocktails but I'm not a big enough fan of the spirits they specialize in to commit to the price again for a while. read more

Stopped here for cocktail while in Austin for the Springsteen concert! Love the cool decor reminiscent of any pub back home in Britain, with really nice artwork! Also one of the nicest places on 6th! Service was fast and friendly and enjoyed a great gin cocktail called Fine and Dandy! Coupled with a great playlist - definitely worth a visit read more

The Dead Rabbit - Power quinoa bowl with chicken!!! - Irish Pub Near Me - Austin, Texas

Surprisingly really good food, we initially stopped here to grab a drink and maybe some appetizers. I was hungrier than expected once we made it so I opted for one of their burgers and it was great. Most pubs you don't really expect much from their main entrees but the Dead Rabbit knocked it out of the park. Our server was great and checked in on us frequently. During our visit I succeed in their "Split the G" Guinness challenge and got a complementary beer. Another one of the few good spots for food on 6th street. read more

A good and slightly more upscale spot in downtown on 6th St. It is an Irish bar with some non-standard options. I was not very hungry (unlike my boyfriend lol) and ordered a veggie plate which turned out to be huge! It was actually great: plenty of fresh veggies, some olives, nuts, and 2 types of dipping sauce. Petition to rename it "Girl Dinner" :D The service was really friendly and attentive, we enjoyed our time at the bar top! read more

This was a nice spot especially compared to all the other things on dirty 6th. For some reason the floors here are filled with sand. Like they are ready for some sort of disaster. Being downtown means prices will be a bit higher but not bank breaking big. The corn beef sandwich was one of the better corn beefs I've had. Maybe it's because they actually used some fatty brisket topped with some kind of well dressed coleslaw. I was quite surprised. read more

This place knocked my (christmas) socks off! We had a girls night here for the Jingle Jangle pop up - it was so festive and the drinks (all in the $20 range) were perfect for the holidays! There was a wait for the table but we were able to grab some seats at the bar while we waited. The food was so unexpectedly amazing. Us four girls split two entrees and finished only about 40% of everything - that is how generous the portions are. The fish & chips ($26) are flaky, crispy battered and amazing. Good, hearty chips too. The Sunday Prime Rib Roast ($42) - wow, just everything on that plate is *chef's kiss* and authentic. Especially the mashed potatoes, gravy, and creamy cauliflower. The popover is huge. The staff and cheery. 100% recommend and would come back for the other menu items. read more

The Dead Rabbit - Yummo. - Irish Pub Near Me - Austin, Texas

I got here and immediately I got the Christmas vibe, the decor makes it feel warmer and cozy. I had a couple of seasonal drinks: the cookie and cream, and the gingerbread man one. The cookies and cream is frozen, didn't say that in the description; and the gingerbread man didn't have the man in it haha, they said they sold out of the little decoration. The food here was outstanding! The scotch egg was superb, crispy and savory. The butternut squash soup was delicious but a little lukewarm, I wish it would be hotter. I added a soda bread for texture and was delicious! The main dis is the fish and chips, the best I've had ever, for real. The batter is very crispy and the dis inside was thick and juicy. I must highlight the sinks in the bathroom, they have water coming from the middle and when you move your hands to the side, it blows air for drying. Very cool! read more

I was looking forward to trying one of the many holiday pop-ups in town, and glad I chose Jingle Jangle @ the Dead Rabbit. I got there around 6:20pm and there wasn't a line so I must have caught a good break in between waves. Found a spot at one of the middle counters near the back. Everyone around was nice seeing that I was a solo diner. My server Jay eventually found me and placed my order. I got one cocktail and one N/A. Both were sweet and yummy - wish there was more color variety though. I finished with one more cocktail that was slightly stronger but still pleasing. Right after my first round came, I accidentally spilled the N/A drink. The folks around me probably hated me but helped to clean it up. I should have helped grab napkins too, but sometimes you're stuck in shock. Jay kindly gave me a free refill on it as well, despite the ratioing. When I left the line was very long. Basically we had about 15-20 mins where it was calm. read more

It was Shana's month to pick our date day/night trip. She choose this as the last stop as she had wanted to visit for some time. So we headed to the Dead Rabbit which was in full Christmas flavor. We got some good drinks, I got a cookies and cream drink that was fantastic. Shana got a different holiday drink which had a gummy Christmas tree on it. She also got the Scotched eggs and really like it. We didn't stay long as we had other plans later but it was a fun trip. The service was friendly, it never felt too crowded but it was early, the décor was fun and the drinks and food were good. While it was all good, the 4 star is due to it not standing out much from any other bar that puts up Christmas décor and drinks. Nothing makes it really shine, which is fine. It is why you bar hop but just wanted to point it out. read more

I really loved the Jingle Jangle theme! The decor is beautiful, it made it feel like we had travelled somewhere out of town. Great customer service, it's off of 6th street so parking is a little tricky. I would recommend it, we had such a great time. The estimated wait time on. Friday evening was over 1:30 but we decided to grab a drink and wait, it was worth it. Such a fun Christmas experience! We both ordered the Chicken Pot Pie and The food was delicious. read more

Really a cool place. Austin has a lot of cool places but this is right up there for vibes. It's definitely an Irish pub feel with great staff and a modern look. We had the chicken wings and sliders. You get some unique sauces and great flavors. No complaints and I'd suggest everyone to stop in for happy hour or for an appetizer prior to dinner. read more

Stopped by here before a concert and what an absolute score of a place. It's an Irish style bar with my husband favorite beer Guinness and I had an amazing coffee. I had the most delicious butternut squash soup ever. And throughout the evening our waitress was so pleasant and helpful. We loved the vibe of this place a little more upscale than the rest of the bars and we just really enjoyed our night. read more

Want to visit Ireland without going too far from home? This is the closest you can come to experiencing a proper Irish pub stateside. First off, you MUST get the chips, AKA French fries, which are almost like thick sticks of creamy mashed potatoes inside, perfectly crisped on the outside. The real feature though is the full Irish breakfast which can be made vegan upon request. You get beyond sausage, toasted sourdough, baked beans, sauteed mushrooms, and tomatoes; the ideal balance of healthy and hearty. That said, the drinks alone are worth checking out. The "Taking Liberties" with whisky, scotch, rum, cacao husk, and vanilla is pretty much my new favorite cocktail. I'm convinced you can't go wrong, no matter what you choose. read more

Upscale bar on 6th Street. Service was great and live music was exceptional. Visited here as part of a pub crawl.

I stopped by here for a quick drink before dinner. I had been to the location in New York and remembered loving it, so I wanted to show my boyfriend, and he absolutely loved it too! Although, he had a little unexpected situation (we'll leave it at that!), the drinks the bartender crafted were incredible! I ordered the Dew Diligence, and my boyfriend went with the Ruby Drift. Both drinks were expertly made, perfectly balanced, and honestly, some of the best cocktails I've had. Also, I really appreciate how they include pictures of the drinks on the menu--definitely a nice touch! read more

Fun spot that does it up right for the holidays. Nothing really stand out but that said, the food for an bar on 6th street is surprisingly tasty and they try to step up the cocktails beyond the usual. Would I choose to brave a Friday night on dirty sixth for a meal here? Probably not. But if you're in the neighborhood it's definitely a viable option. read more

All i have to say is this is the first scotch bonnet egg I've had that I've liked. This place is Irish pub meets cool stylish vibe. We've been here twice. One with family and friends and two on a day date with the hubs during Christmas season. Both times we were welcomed with open arms. Customer service was above and beyond. And might I say their Christmas decor was quite magical. If you want to feel fancy and well taken care of but also relaxed and comfortable at the same time. Come on down! read more

Beautiful and grand interior, Dead Rabbit is originally a NYC bar and the ambiance comes through in this location. It's decor is the best in town during the holidays and the frozen cookies and cream drink is fun. Friendly bartenders were giving local recommendations to visitors next to us. The food and drinks seem a little pricey for a bar environment but the portion of fries were huge. read more

This was a fun find along 6th street. They have quite the menu of drinks and they are STRONG so beware when you order them. One drink there is like two somewhere else. We ordered from the appetizer menu so we could try a few things. We got the Scotch egg, house made chips (french fries), chilled cantaloupe soup (very different), and a sausage roll. Everything was really good, even the soup...definitely something to try at least once. The service was great, our waitress was very attentive and friendly. The restaurant has a very cute nautical theme to it and was dark, but inviting if that makes sense. I'd suggest stopping for a drink becasue they are so good and so strong. read more

Visited Dead Rabbit and had a great experience overall. The salmon was absolutely amazing - perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The atmosphere is nice and the place has a cool vibe. I wasn't a fan of the wood chips on the floor; I get the concept, but it's just not my thing. Still, overall a very enjoyable spot! read more

We randomly ended up here after a recommendation from a bartender at a nearby bar. Next time I would sit at the bar. The ambiance and service at a table was just ok. We didn't order drinks since we were just coming from another bar and were super hungry. I got mussels with toast to dip in the broth and they were so good! I would get this again. They were in a curry tomato broth. Delicious! Next time I'll try the fish and chips which was HUGE! I saw lots of people getting it and I wasn't sure if I wanted something that greasy. It looked so good! My fiance got the steak and chips and really loved it. The gravy poured over the fries was delicious. Overall we had a good meal here, but wouldn't go here for a full meal with apps and drinks and everything because of the high prices and bad service. read more

I am glad this is what was chosen to replace BD Rileys, as much as we all shall miss the old venue. There is definitely some effort in keeping the menu Irish, and the choices are definitely reminiscent of what we experienced in Ireland on trips there. They also a putting great effort into support of the "Live Music Capitol" culture that much of the rest of Austin has seen fit to abandon. We really appreciated their shows and outreach during SXSW 2025, in contrast to many other venues which have given up. read more

Love to see spots like this opening up on Dirty Fifth, reducing the dirtiest and increasing the appeal to people who are not on a mission to get blind-drunk. I hope that they colleague for a low-key business lunch here. We did not have any drinks, but I did have one of the two mocktails and it was outstanding. Additionally, I had the fish and chips. My colleague had the ham and cheese toasty, and we both loved what we got. Seeing my profile for a picture of the fish and chips. The mushy peas were on point. The service was solid no complaints there. Friendly and very good at checking up on us. Bonus: this restaurant participates in the inKind app for 20% cash back! read more

The Dead Rabbit - Fish and Chips - Irish Pub Near Me - Austin, Texas

Rating: 4.3/5 This bar has a stylish, well-decorated interior and is exceptionally clean. They use a QR code menu, and drinks come out quickly--even on a busy Thursday night. We didn't stay long enough to fully soak in the atmosphere, but we're looking forward to returning to try the frozen Irish coffee and scotch egg. Absence of Evil ($18): Bacardi Superior, Mal Bien Zacate Limón, Italicus, Crème de Cacao, and Pandan Coconut Cream. A light, dessert-like drink with a subtle sweetness and creamy texture. However, it was heavy on the ice, making the actual liquid portion feel a bit small. Taking Liberties ($20): Teeling Small Batch Irish Whiskey, Ardbeg 10 Scotch Whisky, Rum, Cacao Husk, and Vanilla. This one is bold and intense--especially after the Absence of Evil. If you love strong whiskey-forward drinks, this is for you. One sip was enough for me! read more

My boyfriend and I decided to come here for dinner based on looking at the menu previously and saw that they had a good variety of options. The hostess and servers were very welcoming and friendly. It is an irish bar but we were just there for food and sat in one of their booths. They do have tvs playing by the bar if you are just looking to have a drink and watch the game. I ordered the chicken pot pie and the salmon. Both entrees were a decent size and the highlight of the meal was the salmon. It was our favorite and we would definitely come back again and order. Our waitress after our meal had mentioned that they recently added it to the menu. Loved the vibe of the bar/restaurant and would come back for the food or try their drinks next time! read more

The Dead Rabbit - Chicken pot pie and salmon - Irish Pub Near Me - Austin, Texas

I'm admittedly being hard with my rating, and I'm doing so based on the hype. I expected to be wow'ed, and I wasn't. Let's start with beer: for an Irish pub I felt the selection was lame. Harp in a can or a couple of Guinness options. That's it. I get it, the DR is known for their liquor and mixed drinks. Got it. But for us beer drinkers who love a good Irish beer, don't narrow our choice down to the Irish beer we can get anywhere. The food was quality. I felt the menu selection was a bit small, but no complaints on food options The ambiance was pretty decent, but nothing outstanding, I've been to several Irish pubs and there was nothing about this that stood out that would make me want to fight 6th street traffic and parking. Finally the service. The service was good and the server very attentive. All in all this is a good place, but for the cost, traffic, and parking it is not worth a second visit. read more

Great ambience, clean; drinks were on point. Perfect lighting and music wasn't loud at all -- perfect all around. Went a couple of times and would go back if ever visit Austin again! read more

I ordered drink after scanning from the barcode and cocktails were $18 which is already pricey but their physical menu says $19. I paid $40 without tip for 2 drinks expensive as hell and drinks are on sweeter note even though I mentioned less sweeten!! I don't mind the price at all since it's a downtown bar, but I expect the quality to reflect it. Since the prices are the same as in New York, the drinks should be of the same level. I have high expectations. read more
