Friendly atmosphere and staff. Delicious hamburgers and the sriracha Cole slaw was very flavorful. Good music too!
best chilidogs and burgers. Try the Nesser! Perfect vibe/dive bar too
This is a very cool dive bar, my grandfather used to stop by here when I was a kid to drink beer and grab a bite to eat when it was called Pattons. Lots of history here, large patio, plenty of parking, lots of beer options and full bar, seevice was great, the food is excellent and cheap, burgers are awesome, beers cold, staff is nice, we will be back for sure.

The Silver Medal is a cozy and chill dive bar in Austin, known for its legit good food, particularly the burgers, which are considered a super value and very good. This establishment features a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, enhanced by a resident bar cat. While the prices may be a bit higher than expected, the overall experience makes this place a local favorite. It offers a large outdoor seating area with a pool table and plenty of space for visitors, especially when crowded inside. The bar has several tap beers, cocktails, shots, burgers, and hot dogs, including combo specials. The vegetarian menu is highly praised, and many enjoy pairing their food with native Texas beer while watching a Chuck Norris movie. The burgers and hot dogs are popular, and many agree they are great. The friendly staff and laid-back vibe make visitors feel like they’ve stepped back in time, reminiscent of Austin 20 years ago. Dogs are welcome, and guests may encounter a neighborhood cat. The service is friendly but curt, fitting the relaxed atmosphere. With a large free parking lot just off the highway frontage road, The Silver Medal remains a favorite spot for both locals and visitors looking for affordable food and drinks in a casual setting.
