The 18 Best South Congress Restaurants And Bars In Austin 2024

"Equal parts cafe, wine bar, pizzeria, and bicycle shop, The Meteor is a great casual spot to pop in for a glass of wine and some light bites. It’s located just far enough away from the busy part of South Congress to make it a welcome escape from all the action, or as a bookend on either part of a long day trying on new sunglasses and boots. The specialty here is round, sourdough pizzas that are good for satisfying the inevitable post-shopping craving for carbs and cheese, but there are  also pastries, sandwiches, and salads. It’s one of our favorite places in town for drinking wine—and it only gets better during Happy Hour with half price glasses of wine (and cheeseburgers)." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
