Second time here, first time definitely not impressed, this time we came back because we heard they sold and had new owners. Nothing has changed, staff are jerks and the place stinks like sewer.

We chose to go watch the debate last night, and it was the worst ever.They had almost no staff. The poor staff were completely overwhelmed. They left a new chef in the food truck with no supplies no food not even ketchup for french fries running out of food with people getting mad at him when it was not his fault at all. Complete amateur hour who are the owners? Why is there no management? we could have run this event 1000 times better ourselves. ?

So, it pulls up as dive bar in search.
But a dive bar that:
1. Doesn’t take cash
2. Two different orders/tabs, one for drinks, another for food.
3. Food is ordered online or walk outside in back to order from food truck.
4. The music was loud dance type music you would hear at a club.
Not really a dive bar.
Positives.
1. Bartender was nice. She was helpful.
2x Clean environment.

What an incredibly perfect bar. Mix between cool and old; young and sweet; cheap and elevated. Hahaha buzz words. Whatever the bartender was hot and they allow dogs!

First time there. Loved it. Has a great neighborhood vibe to it.
Always a great time for outdoor food and drinks....but much more fun for the dog/puppy/turtle/armadillo races!!!

We came during a crawfish festival, the food and drinks were great! Nice chill outdoor eating area. Seems like they have many fun events!

I was in town visiting and friend and we decided to check out Skinny’s. At first, the atmosphere was greatest , however the guy working was incredibly rude to us and acted as if he couldn’t care less we were guests there. It put such a damper on our meal together, so I’m not sure I’d recommend this place.

Cool little joint. Good drinks/bartenders. Big patio out back with a food trailer cranking out high quality bar food. Massive TV on the patio.

Decent vibe in a sub ghetto neighborhood. The smash burger is tops but I’d never pay $14 for it. Not sure how you’re gonna charge $9 for a local beer on tap but that’s a deal breaker , buddy. The food trailer guys have the slacker, broke attitude. Might wanna lower your prices if that’s the scene you’re

We went for the Wednesday wiener dog races. They were fun to watch. Seemed like the place to be!

Food was surprisingly cold for how long it took to get it. Photo is supposed to be a double order of mini corn dogs. Can’t imagine how small a single order would be. Got a bucket of beer. First one was warm. Glad the rest were in ice.Small indoor space with a really long line for the bar. Not their fault but everyone one that passé by our table put their hand on it as they passed. So gross to me. Don’t touch my table.The tv at the table was really far behind the bigger screens which always drives me nuts.Fun atmosphere but definitely not my favorite place.Side note- I did not go outside at all. Seems like that might be the better option but it’s a chilly day.

One of my favorite bars on the east side that truly transports you back to your grandmas house in the 70’s with the interior decor. Amazing cocktails, amazing food, and such a large patio that’s great for watching sports and hanging with a large group of friends. Easily THE BEST happy hour in Austin, can’t beat $3 wells.
