This place used to be called dozen Street. On 12th Street. Cute. Outer heaven has become a cool dance night for the University crowd especially, but a fun place to hang. Have a drink, perhaps some karaoke. A good spot if you don't want to get into the dirty of downtown.

I don't think the owner pays them nearly enough, at least judging by his "$8/hr" replies on some of the other reviews. I had tipped in cash and because they didn't see me offer it, they branded me a non-tipper and refused service when I tried getting a drink later. Kind of a bummer, since the crowd is pretty cool

This place is absolutely horrible every time I’ve been there haha. Some of the worst staff and management I ever seen I was about to tip like 5 dollar bill on my 2nd modelo but since my first tip was too low it was a problem like you coulda gotten 6 bucks off two cheep beers but you decided to be greedy and make a comment. Y’all just cracked a tab relax

Had a lot of at a birthday here last weekend! We went on a a Thursday night after it’d been raining, and there weren’t many people around until about 10:30/11PM when I snuck away.The DJ is great and she also sang songs. There are regulars who come to jam out, and we enjoyed their friendliness! The four stars is because they don’t have too many R&B artists in the repertoire! We only saw 3 or 4 Beyonce songs, hardly any Frank Ocean, Brent Faiyaz, etc. If there were more R&B or Disney songs, I’d go all the time!

I like how that guy who runs it and DJs looks despondent while DJing really elevates the experience

I don't want to ruin this place by telling people how good it is here

Seriously the best little club in Austin. Reminds me of a small pre-pandemic Barbs but with a much cooler staff at the helm and way more lasers. They have their own style which is what keeps the real ones coming. If you don’t like it, walk back to Rainey or W 6th.
The only bar in Austin!!Everyone here is the coolest and knows me by name at this points. Karaoke is the best. These guys really know Austin and how to keep it weird and politically correct.

I don’t usually rate 1- star but here’s the reason why.Aside from the great DJ, the bathroom reeked & needed servicing & the bar staff that night were rude and drinks were poorly made. After buying our first round of drinks of the night, all 10 of us agreed our drinks were definitely a watered down version of what we had all ordered. Eventually some of us decided to opt for another drink, hoping that by ordering a simple drink- a Paloma- the quality would be redeemed and unfortunately that was not the case. I walked up to the bar, drink in hand & kindly requested for the bartender if she may remake the drink to which the bartender rudely exchanged convo and refused and shared that I must by another drink. I’m not one much for confrontation, so to abide by the rules, I order yet another drink which was again under par and therefore I felt warranted to refuse to tip a 3rd time and was immediately notified that because we did not tip this last time, we were not to be serviced at the bar the rest of the night.Now I’ve seen the owners of the bar respond that their staff are paid a certain wage and have their right to refuse service but this example of mine did not warrant the staffs rude attitude and unsatisfactory service.My group and I were so excited to try out this place for our bride’s bachelorette night out but unfortunately coming to this place out a damper on the night for a while.

Refused to make me a mocktail and made me feel like the stupidest person alive. It almost seemed like my very presence bothered the bartenders even though I was laid back and stone cold sober. Pretty weird!

A very fun place to party. Came here on a bachelorette trip and watched this place go from completely empty to packed in the matter of an hour. The drinks were standard but the vibe was awesome.I loved how diverse the crowd and space is. They offer indoor and outdoor space. Perfect if you want to dance or sit outside and have a conversation.
