16 Austin-Area Bars and Restaurants to Frequent This Summer | Eater
"The W Hotel’s Austin location is home to several chic bars made for enjoying a night out with friends. Whether you’re people-watching at Trace, listening to some selections from the 8,000-record collection at the Living Room Bar, or enjoying skyline views poolside at the WET pool bar, you’re bound to have a good time. In summer, you can even book a little day-cation for yourself and a few friends. Purchase a day pass for the WET Deck (you can also reserve a bungalow or cabana) and order a round of Milagro Tequila margaritas poolside to experience a relaxing day under the Texan sun. If you’re there Sunday- to Thursday, head to happy hour at the Living Room Bars or Trace with your crew (running from 4 to 6 p.m.) for drink specials and sets from local DJs." - Cynthia Drake
