Best time I’ve had on Rainey in years! So glad this bar hosted a local dog rescue adoption event because it solidified my absolute adoration for this establishment and its staff/management. 10/10 espresso martinis.

Walking around on a Sunday around 3pm, decided time stop in - wrong move. Worst bar on all of Rainey Street that we tried (8 total). Over the last couple days we had frequent a couple bars a day - Rainey Street is awesome - highly recommend it. As we walked in, it was completely empty which seemed like a red flag, regardless decided to pursue the adventure of exploring new places.
Sat at the bar, talked to the bar tender about drinks etc, everything was blown off as semi blase in terms on question about drinks etc - which generally would completely understand if they had had absolutely anyone in the bar. Was reassured that the drinks I was ordering would not be adjusted to remove sugar fillers to reduce sweetness and would be adjusted etc, tipped out $4/cocktail .. and - the sweetest drinks we'd had all week (maybe all year?), unreal. Maybe it's the bartender (?), who knows, seems like a larger problem at the bar as all adjacent bars had people (not packed but filled) .
In all honesty this bar might be great for some times late at night, just for the vibe but don't come for the drinks and especially not the cocktails.
Will not return here ever.
If you want cocktails go to Half Step, on point and great drinks/vibes/staff.

Joe is an excellent bartender. Welcoming, friendly, and right on with his recommendations for visitors from Chicago.
If I come back to WEIRD Austin, I will be sure to stop by Augustine’s! Oh Carol!

If you’re a guy you won’t be over charged for a drink if you’re a girl good luck you’ll definitely be over charged.

This place was a ton of fun. It was great seeing both talented and not so talented folks get on stage to sing their hearts out. I was too chicken to do it, and most certainly would have been 86’d. My friend and I showed up in the last hour or so before the karaoke stopped and we shut that place down. Everyone was sitting down afterwards, but there was great music playing, so I got everyone up and dancing. It was definitely the highlight of my trip to Austin and would absolutely go back.

The absolute best bar on Rainey! I was there with my friend for a small bachelorette party and we tried just about every spot on Rainey and came back to Augustine every time. Drinks are amazing, try the Bat City Baddie I swear you won't regret it, and the atmosphere is so fun! It was a beautiful night in Austin both nights we were in town and the outside area was so fun. There was even a dog there! Super friendly staff, and I never felt uneasy even being 2 girls in a new city!

Fantastic patio in the front, with even more seating in the backyard.
