first time here, it was a suggested place by a friend and honestly if u really want a dive bar experince which is hard to find in Austin this is very much the place for it. Free pool, great music playing too and well priced drinks this place is a 13/10 🙏
Great dive bar. Sweet bartender. Great for pregaming before shows at Mohawk or Stubbs
Love coming to the side bar, drinks are reasonably priced and strong, and the bartenders are fantastic.
Cody hooked us up with new drinks completely free when they were accidentally taken from our table after we got up to play pool, so thanks for that!

The Side Bar is a restaurant known for its signature drink, the "Side Bar Pour." Despite some controversy, many regulars enjoy the generously sized pours at reasonable prices. The restaurant's management has not commented on the presence of security cameras. The wait staff is generally great, though one bartender was reported to have an attitude. Customers describe the drinks as good and the crowd as chill, with affordable prices. However, some have experienced poor quality straws and questionable safety after consuming the signature drink.
