The bar itself is cool, but the Spanish-speaking guy in the food truck overcharged me both times I bought food there. The first time, he ‘didn’t have change’. The second time, he tried to charge me $14 instead of $12. When I noticed, he had the audacity to try to charge me $13. These sums aren’t too big; it's just a disgusting behavior

Great dive bar vibe and some of the best prices on beer. Not sure you can get meanwhile on tap for 5 bucks anywhere else. Bartenders were incredibly attentive and make you feel like a regular even though it was my first time here.

Watch out for the guy at the food truck with the gold front teeth. He verbally harassed us in Spanish and tried to defend himself by saying he was surprised we could speak Spanish. Who else does he harass just because they can’t respond?

Bartenders are salt of the earth and an Estrella is 3 dollars. Cannot be beat. If you come in the winter time get a Hot Toddy and warm up. A cigarette on their patio makes a bad a good day and a good day a great day.

Great neighborhood bar that has margaritas made with fresh squeezed lime juice - at a good price.
Nothing bad about Backlot, diverse crowd, cheap drinks and a food truck out front

Classic local dive bar in a single story cinder block building. Bare bones, friendly atmosphere, great prices. There is a food truck but the bar is the main reason to come.

One of my favorite divey bars, well priced drinks and some of my favorite staff. I believe her name is Jess, she always has fantastic earrings, but she deserves a raise! Superb service. The taco truck in the back is amazing too.

Simply best bar in town

Incredible bar, one of my favorite bars in Austin (along with the sister bar, Workhorse) - very cool people here, reasonable prices, nice outdoor seating.
