The Best Bars And Restaurants On Rainey Street - Austin - The Infatuation
"Things that feel in-place on Rainey Street: Lime scooters, bachelor/bachelorette parties, DJs. Things that feel out-of-place on Rainey Street: Standard Proof. This is the second outpost of the Nashville-based distillery and tasting room, and it’s located at the far end of Rainey Street at the bottom of an apartment complex. Unlike most of the spots nearby, Standard Proof is minimalist and spacious, with a massive wall displaying all the various whiskey infusions they offer. And while Rainey Street probably isn’t the first place we’re heading for a calm, early-evening whiskey flight, the cocktails at Standard Proof are excellent. Combine that with a pretty solid Nashville hot chicken sandwich from the food menu, and you’ve got a great start to a night out." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
