5 Best Irish Pubs in Austin

“Amazing. Must-go location in Austin! They serve up wonderful array of drinks, especially their icy coffee - Irish and otherwise. The Dead Rabbit also does coffee in the morning starting at 7am - their tiramisu coffee is a must have. Great food- their sliders are delicious. Wonderful service in a restaurant and bar with great ambiance. The team at the Dead Rabbit is so kind, considerate and friendly. Reasonable prices for an exceptional experience.“

“Purely Authentic! Possibly my favourite pub outside of Ireland! I had the pleasure of meeting with John and Steve the owners of the bar on this trip. I got a full tour. But what blew my mind was that the WHOLE pub, decor and all, is from DUNDALK!! From the doors to the bar, the snugs to the windows, everything in the bar was made in Dundalk Ireland and shipped over! Owners that actually care about the little details! I’m so grateful for the time and stories they shared with me about the pub!

You simply can’t go wrong for food here! From breakfast to dinner, any ingredient that can be Irish, is irish! Then the drink! The most important drink of all, a good Guinness and oh my god do they do it well! When you ask for a pint, you get a proper pint! And most importantly, it’s Consistent!

I first was introduced to B.D.’s on last years trip and I remember driving up and hearing “Mo Salah! Mo Salah, running down the winnngg!!”. Little did I know I was about to walk into Austin’s Liverpool supporters club home base! It was closest you could get to being at Anfield with the atmosphere those guys created on match days! This trip we specifically caught an early game to see if the turn out would still be the same and I definitely underestimated the fan base the Reds have in Austin! That was magic! There is even a permanent tribute to DJ20 up on the walls inside!

Besides the owners being gentlemen, the culture and that kind welcoming vibe is instilled into the staff too!“

“Great place to bring your puppers!!!“

“We had a great bartender. Brett. Personable, friendly and knowledgeable. Loved the atmosphere, food (Fish n Chips) and drinks. He made me a original. Went back 2x on our stay. Thanks.“
