All attention is on the artist, and it maintains a nice intimacy. They have a small reception area where they check you in and made wine and beer available for purchase (including Buckethead, which I really like) at very reasonable prices. It's really not a commercial affair at all. It's a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization that also does great and meaningful work in the community. They're truly musical ambassadors, fueled by passion and a firm belief in the power of live music and the role it plays in a healthy society. I will absolutely come back again! Six stars; one more than the maximum allowed!

How fabulous it is to have this incredible venue half way between Austin and Houston. Either of those cities would love to Festival Hall within their city limits. But here it is, in rural Round Top. That said, Round Top is a great little city with nice dining options, great antique shops and more. We're really glad we discovered this gem!! They usually feature classical music, but today they invited the Houston Jazz Orchestra, a full 17- piece jazz band, and the first such big band to play at Festival Hall in their 50 year history. They gave a great performance. They were all so very talented and passionate about music. And a film crew was there recording the whole concert, which was interesting to watch. It was open seating. $30 per ticket (reasonable), with no food or drinks allowed or offered in the venue, even at intermission. But that made the intermission shorter. And I wouldn't allow food or drinks in there, either. The entire venue is a work of art. Even the floors are solid wood laid out in a herringbone pattern. They really went all out! We'll monitor their events and we'll be back. We may even bring a few friends with us. What a great place!

Tables were placed in front of the 2 far dance floor exits and the exits by the stage have been blocked off. Management allows people with beers and open cup drinks on the dance floor and couldn't care less about what is spilled. During the Neal McCoy show, 1/3 of the dance floor was taken up by people standing and drinking. This was once an amazing dance hall, now it's just another place to charge folks high prices to listen to music.

Standing room only crowds with beer bottles and trash scattered about. Lack of service or floor staff is an insult to the overpriced admission. Many a great entertainment have graced the stage of this historic building over the decades, but the present owners have turned it into an 'Austin crowd concerts venue'. The attached"but closed" restaurant may increase the 'legal occupancy count' but crowding everyone into the dance-floor with inadequate emergency exits is an obvious overcrowding situation.

Beautifully placed under huge, spreading oak trees, plenty of parking, large patio areas for live music venues, quaint air-conditioned interior with a large back-bar. The food was excellent -- very well done burgers and a grilled chicken sandwich well worth the money. The menu isn't expansive, but has plenty of options, including some very neat appetizers such as fried alligator or fried pickles -- which are not shown on the website menu, but were definitely on the in-house menu. They have a lot of different beers on tap, too. Clean restrooms, friendly, knowledgeable wait staff. Definitely will be adding this one to our list of local outliers worthy of a 45 minute expedition.
