The bartender here is a thief! I ordered food and drinks, asked to close out my tab, and he swiped my card and gave it back. He opened two bottles of Mexican Coke and even filled a Diet Coke, but never handed me a receipt to sign. Instead, he got on the phone and ignored me.
After waiting a bit, I decided to take the drinks to my table and came right back, maybe 10 seconds later, to sign my tab. That’s when he claimed they automatically add a 25% “walk-off” tip and refused to correct it. Dishonest staff and shady practices, avoid this place!

It's a bar with bar food. Food was edible. I wouldn't go back for the food though.

For a bar, it’s has some of the best food around. I can go on for days about their tater tots. Always fresh, always fast.
Plus: drinks, games & everything you need.

We moved from Austin 7 years ago to retire in Mexico. The East Side was always “our area” and the section we called home in Austin. We come back to visit for a month or so each year and so much has changed in this city we love.
While The Cavalier was not here when we left, it now welcomes us home each year when we return. It reminds us so much of the old Austin we love! Affordable, good tasting food, fantastic drinks that don’t break the bank and a kind caring staff who make you feel like family!
A special thanks to Tom, Mike, Rachel, Charlotte & Hunter! Y’all made The Cavalier feel like our home away from home during our 2025 visit. Your kindnesses, service and great attitudes overwhelmed us this trip!
Thanks for helping “Keep Austin Weird” and fabulous! See ya again next year!
❤️ Chuck & Tom

A great neighborhood bar!

Found this place back in September. Every time I come in, they have something new on their menu that blows my mind. Bartenders and staff are super kind, knowledgeable, and attentive. One of the best places to eat and nicest bars
Y’all have the best fried chicken in Austin in my humble opinion and the new Chicken Sando was too good, I ate the whole glorious thing in 2 minutes (not saying it’s small cause it’s pretty huge).

Cute place to grab a bite or a drink. The fried chicken was delicious

Came on a Wednesday night, so full potential not realized. But still a great environment and ambiance they created. I recommend getting the Wings and Fries for sure.
