"Whether you can make it up the narrow flight of stairs outside of Barfly’s is a litmus test to determine if you’re OK for another round. Inside, you’ll find low ceilings, pool tables, a jukebox, and cheap drinks. Barfly’s keeps things simple, and it’s quickly solidifying itself as one of Austin’s most down-to-earth dives. Pool and jukebox tunes in a no-nonsense bar" - nicolai mccrary
"With its budget-friendly beers and well drinks served by genuinely friendly bartenders, this North Loop bar is a win for both the wallet and spirit. There are pool tables, a loud jukebox, and floorboards that have seen better days. No notes. Don’t trip on all those stairs, though. The ones in the back leading down to the patio are even more rickety than the ones leading up to the entrance." - Darcie Duttweiler
"Sure, you have to climb some rickety stairs to get in, and, fine, the floors have seen better days. But, with a rock ‘n’ roll heavy jukebox, pool tables, a packed smoker’s area outside, and no-fuss drinks (don’t dare order anything fancy here), it’s one of the best dive bars in town. Open until 2 a.m. on Sundays." - Darcie Duttweiler
"A dive bar that is open for every holiday, including Thanksgiving." - Nadia Chaudhury
"This is the perfect epitome of dive bars complete with cheap drinks, no frills, no outside light, pool tables, a jukebox, and more. It should be no surprise then that the North Loop bar’s Happy Meal is comprised of a can of Lone Star and a shot of Jagermeister. There are indoor dine-in areas." - Elizabeth Leader Smith
