It IS the place. Everyone is alive and well when you walk in there and see it packed with a bunch of different people all coexisting to watch a sports game or grab a super good drink. Personally love the frozen coffee mud slide like drink (highly recommend). They offer to go drinks for that specific drink (not sure about the rest). They have fun themes around different holidays and their decoration game is strong! They have great food in the food truck as well and , although limited, a fun and decently sized outdoor seating area on top of the booth seating inside. Also is in the heart of a former of current black artist neighborhood with culture that I can admit I couldn't exactly tell you with confidence the exact nature of, but go find out for yourself lol. Also a very short walk(1-2 blocks of that) to a cute clean lake/park that is nice to walk around and hang out in that part of town. Recommend 10/10.

This is seriously the greatest bar in all of Austin. I dont live in Austin anymore, but when I visit, this is seriously the number 1 bar in the whole entire city!!! If anyone loves to day drink, this is the spot!!!

It’s the worst. Don’t go there. I hate it. The food isn’t even as phenomenal as the locals say it is. The bartenders aren’t even as cool as they seem. Lol this bar is amazing, best neighborhood spot in town.

Bartender asked me if I wanted to close out, and I said yes cause I just wanted 1 lonestar. He never brought me my receipt and I got charge triple cause they said I walked out on my tab and they get to gives themselves 18% gratuity. Talked to the manager and she didn't help. Also they dont have a number phone on Google so I had to drive back up there. They also do a 30 dollar pre authorization. I've NEVER heard of a bar that does 30 dollars preauthorizarion. Moe's tavern would never 😂

Had to add to my review I stopped in on Tuesday after taking my dog to the vet. Bartender seemed extremely annoyed to help me or anyone else. I left a 10 dollar tip after 2 drinks and food since wasnt feeling the attitude of the Bartender. Looked at my bank account today and someone adjusted the tip to a 16 dollar amount and some change. So thats annoying
The Simpsons pop up bar is nice Food was okay everything is separate fries not included. Fave drink was the coffee donut espresso martini. Subbed the bourbon for the old fashioned

Literally the best dirty martini I’ve ever had. I haven’t had one in over 10 years so I don’t know if what that counts for but this girl was smooth and dirty just like I em. Baby daddy ordered a hot toddy and it was delicious too.. if u like good vibes, chill dive bar, community type ish, good drinks this yoooooo spot

They had it all decked out for the holidays. It was really well done. I had one of the holiday cocktails and it was dangerously delicious…cold brew, vodka and cinnamon. We had some mozzarella sticks and lemon pepper wings and they hit the spot and flavor was on point. Bartenders were nice. I’ll be back for sure!

Vibe was great but service was absolutely Rude and absolute trash. Service wasn’t even 100% worthy of a good tip. And had the audacity to ask to 20% tip without even providing basic customer service. For Christmas even not the level of customer service expected. Never going again.
We went during Christmas Eve and will never everrr go again. The bartenders were soooo rude and did not give us the service we deserved. They asked us for the tip before we even closed out. We loved the vibes but not the service !

A local favorite bar with patronages from all social classes. There themes are interesting to say the least to include the festive holiday adult beverages. There are 2 food trucks available if not interested in the bar food offered. The bartenders are attentive and are very efficient at making mix drinks.

My wife and I enjoyed our time at Nickel City. It’s a small venue, but it feels nice and intimate. There’s an outdoor patio as well if there’s nice weather. We liked how they decorated the bar for the holidays. The drinks were delicious and we appreciate the holiday themed cocktails. The cups and shot glasses were nice too. You can also purchase them if you want to bring them home. And I’m a sports fan so I appreciate the TVs playing games while I enjoyed the vibes.
