Awesome old Austin gem. The original owners left the place to their lovely daughter, who currently owns and operates it. Killer happy hour deal ($2 tall boys?? In the year 2026??) but it's also BYO Food and Drink. Great vibe and live music.

Fantastic Lounge, great people, lowest price of beer in Austin Wednesday thru Saturday during happy hour. Never know who or what will be playing there.

Would be a lot cooler if they didn’t host people that try to Cyberstalk others online in their off time when they’re not performing.

This is such a unique whimsical place and the staff are truly kind. You can find the heart of Austin live music here and more. The walls are painted to the theme of Carnival and you can get lost looking at all the details. This place makes you feel the kid spirit in you again.

This place has been around for 61 years in ATX! One of the weird ones, but I mean that will all affection. No liquor available but BYOB ok. Staff was so kind when I went in for a beer and a little rest the weekend. There was a jazz band playing and a couple locals scattered about on Saturday late afternoon. Keep Austin weird ya’ll!!

3 great bands. Never a cover. Chatty cool Bartender. 16 oz beers - colder than you’d expect.
An Austin original, friendly old school bar keeps, great music, reminder of Austin past.

Stopped in for a fun time, not a long time. Staff and locals are friendly. Drinks are reasonable. Atmosphere and decor is unique and fun. Would happily stop by again next time we’re in town.

I like this place. It is one of the few remaining places in Austin where you can go have an inexpensive beer and relax in a safe, welcoming, interesting environment. It has been around forever. It features live music at times and always friendly staff members. The clientele that go there are also nice to be around. If you want wine just take your own bottle and they give you a set up and it’s very inexpensive. I will be sorry when the time arrives and Austin no longer has joints like this. My wife and I try to make it over there every couple of months. I also noticed that people purchase food from wherever and take it into the carousel and eat and have a good time.
