"His current favorite is Yellow Jacket Social Club, but that’s only because someone set fire to Crow Bar in September and it hasn’t reopened yet." - Brant deBoer

Fun bar! I loved their jukebox and the phone booth photo op! They have a big menu. Loved the outdoor area. Loved the giant jenga blocks that we can play with. Nice pool room. Loud music, you have to shout in order to chat with the people next to you. Seemed like a lot of people were there solo. They have a pizza menu. It was easy to park for free on the street of the bar on a Friday night at 9 pm. They have weekly specials offered.

Great (and strong!) drinks, super friendly staff, and actually these guys have amazing food as well. They do italian flood including sandwiches, pizza, etc. and it is unreal. Oh yeah and great tunes served hot as well. One stop shop, we loving hanging out here.

I enjoy this spot. Awesome drinks. People are chill and the bartenders are pretty friendly. I wanted to give that food trailer a shot. The guy was rude as hell so we just left and took our money elsewhere. Recommend this bar if you just want to chill and enjoy some drinks with some good company!

Awesome Rock bar, a bit gothic and but very welcoming to the mainstream. Very well decorated, cozy and very unique. Nice service. Must see.

I loved the environment and the metal music was just what I needed! The bartender was very helpful in giving recommendations about the beer selections and providing meaningful conversations, I wish I would had caught his name. The thin crust pizza from next door was alright tasting nothing special. But my experience overall was just amazing and will come back to dance some metal song from Ozzy, Slayer, King Diamond.

This WAS my go to bar since moving to Austin in 2018. After a random, unwarranted, and rude encounter with a complete stranger I will sadly not be returning. My friend and I were sitting in the corner of the pool room, talking, eating, and drinking…and this complete stranger comes up to my friend and very rudely accuses him of looking at her in a certain way (what way?). We were taken aback, confused, and said we’re sorry, but we weren’t doing anything but enjoying our time chatting (in a room she was not even sitting in). About 5 minutes later, a bartender and 2 other employees come over to ask my friend to leave because he was upsetting one of their regulars. I’m not sure what even happened. Or why it required more than 1 employee to deliver the message (honestly felt pretty racist, which is just sad). We had made no contact with this woman prior to her stern accusation. One random act of rudeness is all it took to not want to come back. It’s honestly just a random sad ending to an otherwise great evening we were having at a different bar.
