Threadgill's is a beloved Austin eatery serving up hearty Southern comfort food, live music, and a lively gospel brunch that keeps spirits high.
"On April 20, owners of Threadgill’s, a historic Austin venue that started as a gas station and beer bar 87 years ago, announced its permanent closure. The decision came just three days after they had begun a takeout operation, marking a significant loss to Austin's local live music scene, heavily impacted by the pandemic." - Nina Hernandez
"The South Austin location of iconic comfort food restaurant and music venue Threadgill’s is closing this weekend (Sunday, December 2 to be exact). The executive vice president of the location’s lease managing company Crockett Properties, Jack Burton, wants to lease the space to another restaurant that will sell alcohol." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Historic South Austin restaurant Threadgill’s has finally announced a closure date. The restaurant on 301 West Riverside Drive will close on Sunday, December 2. The Riverside location of Threadgill’s has been experiencing difficulties for a while, including financial struggles and high property taxes. Despite a new lease in November 2017, the location could not overcome these challenges." - Erin Russell
