48 Best Bars near Buda

“We made a reservation here for my boyfriend’s birthday and had an amazing time! We sat outside on the deck, and the ambiance was great. The sourdough and smoked salmon dip was delicious and everyone loved their entrees. Molly, our server, was absolutely fantastic! She brought a dessert out for my boyfriend with a candle at the end of our meal and played a harmonica while we sang happy birthday. We couldn’t have asked for a better night. Will be back again!“

“From the outside you would never suspect there’s a cool little underground bar. Very cute, awesome craft cocktails“

“Great drinks, great entertainment and terrific bar tenders!😘“

“This place is absolutely awesome. The bartenders are super friendly, the atmosphere is so welcoming. I’m a big fan of their outdoor seating with a fire pit, lots of beautiful lights & screens. They have various games like ping pong & corn hole that’s just so entertaining. Their new menu is just delicious too! As a new resident of Buda TX, this is the perfect spot to enjoy an evening out with friends or alone 🤗✨.“

“So. Much. Fun!

I love that they have dance lessons for people that have never been dancing before, or for people that would be classified as “intermediate”. The vibe in here was fantastic and it’s such a great place to bring friends. I’ve never had a bad experience here, and the staff are very friendly.
The outside patio is great too for people that want a break from dancing and instead want to play some casual games with others. Like connect four, cup pong, and jumbo jenga.
Totally recommend coming here for a nice night and for good dancing and drinks.“

“Super deliciosa la comida 🙏“

“Lovely setting. Fun atmosphere and chilled“

“We stopped by at this place for a business. I was very surprised to find a beautiful place, grand hosts and delicious apple cider 😋. The place is so beautiful and is nice for a family hang out time!“

“Beau was hands down the best bartender we could have asked for! He was professional, attentive, fast, and somehow still made every guest feel personally taken care of. Beyond bartending, Beau went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly throughout the night. He stayed open for our afterpart of our wedding, and was so attentive to all of our people. We received so many compliments from our guests about him!“

“Well I would say yes & no! Nice place but the way the tables are set up is horrible. There isn’t a stage so if you are sitting at the small tables you can’t see the band that is performing because the higher table are in front. I think that the higher tables should go against the wall where the picnic table is or towards the back and the smaller tables should be up front. There are some people who are unable to sit and the higher tables but are unable to see the band other then that’s it’s a pretty nice place.“

“Fortune Teller is truly a hidden gem! ✨ Tucked away in a great location, it has such a unique and cozy atmosphere. There are plenty of seating areas to relax and hang out with friends, and the menu offers a great selection of drinks and bites. Definitely a spot worth discovering if you're looking for a fun night out! 🍸🖤🌙“

“Great down home Austin beer and cocktails spot. This place is huge and you can always find your own corner. Plenty of TV’s with all the premium sports channels. Dozens of Great selection of beers. This place reminds me of Austin back in the 80’s days. I travel from Round Rock to go there and it’s always worth the drive. 👍🏼👍🏼“

“Let me start by saying Rick is ana amazing server and he made us feel right at home. It was our first time at 54 and we came for happy hour to have a few drinks and small bites. The food was incredible and you can tell they make ti all from scratch. They also give full size portions for their happy hour menu so we where STUFFED. Now let's talk drinks, they have great cocktails and offer a crazy deal on their house margaritas for happy hour. They where strong enough that we both called it quits after only 2! Thoroughly impressed woth the quality and upscale atmosphwre for thia being a multi state chain. We will definitely be back!“

“Very festive! Cozy lounge, bar. Great staff too! love it!“

“Needed a local spot to host our elopement celebration with family. Drea the manager and special events host created a custom menu for us, worked with their baker to create our wedding cake, sourced McAllen 18 for our open bar and essentially treated us like VIPs. Drea and McKenna made our elopement day so special, our guests were happy and my 2 year old great nephew received a surprise birthday cake (totally unplanned).

As someone with 15 years of hospitality experience, I appreciated the custom service. Drea was responsive and genuinely excited to host our event. This kind of creative hustle is hard to find, she and the team did an incredible job.

This new local establishment from a seasoned, local restauranteur is heading in the right direction. Happy to see them hiring young, creative management like Drea. It’s won our loyalty as our new favorite watering hole as a Circle C resident.“

“I loveee it here ! Always has great vibes and the owner/manager.. i love her shes so nice.. and the bartenders are cuuteee“

“The 04 Lounge is one of those bars that you discover once and then keep coming back to every chance you get. The vibe is relaxed and unpretentious with just the right amount of energy to make every visit feel like a great night out with good company. The drinks are well crafted and the selection is broad enough to satisfy every taste whether you are in the mood for a classic cocktail or something a little more adventurous. The staff is incredibly friendly and makes sure every guest feels welcome and taken care of throughout the night. This place has a real soul to it and it has quickly become one of my favorite spots in all of Austin.“

“I just moved to the area recently. Great little dive bar. Dark lighting, punk rock atmosphere, usually have cheesy 80’s horror movies playing. The regulars are super inviting and friendly as is the doorman and bartenders. Drinks are fairly priced. Owner is a friendly guy who takes genuine interest in the bar. 100% would recommend.“

“Yes I had my moving company and family and friends come to the great establishment💜!“

“Great smoked meat, hot off the griddle tortillas, and good guacamole. What more could you ask for? I went here twice in 3 days. the first time I got the smoked brisket plate. The brisket was wonderfully smoky. The second time I got the smoked goat and it was tender and delicious. The tortillas are so fresh that they're still puffy when they bring them to the table. If you don't live nearby, take a drive and get some great food at Antiguo!“

“Every show this year was amazing, along with every drink and event“

“The burger was amazing and great onion rings.“

“MUY RICO Y RÁPIDO Y BUEN SERVICIO UN 10“

“BUEN AMBIENTE Y ATENCIÓN EXELENTE“

“Sagebrush is a classic honky tonk with a huge dance floor and two separate indoor stages. They have live music every weekend and also many events during the week days - check their website for musician schedule. If you are a dancer, you will enjoy yourself here. If you are a drinker, they have a large variety of spirits and brews to suffice your needs, including the Howdy THC beverage on tap. A great place to get the Austin experience if you are visiting from out of town. There is also an outdoor stage that is often popular on weekend afternoons and they regularly have flea market type events with artisans selling their creations and vintage goods.“

“The food at Umi Sushi Bar is excellent! It’s one of the best casual Japanese spots in Austin. I 100% recommend it. The prices, the food quality, and the freshness of the protein—everything is delicious. I recommend the spicy edamame (amazing!), the Hawaiian roll, the rock & roll, and the gyoza—they’re all so good! Plus, they have 2-for-1 deals. It’s my favorite restaurant—we visit weekly. Also, the sunomono salad is delicious, and the staff is super kind and attentive. If you visit often, they even give you cash back—so take advantage!“

“Cant have a good place without great service. BIG shout out to Ms CJ behind the bar for always bringing the vibes and good energy. If you want to have a good time with friends or even by yourself stop by and give them a visit!!“

“Saw Fat Tony a few weeks back. my first show in 8 months. Awesome show. But also fantastic venue. Sound was great as was the speed to get a drink or use the facilities. Was happy to see how safe and attentive the staff was. They were great about enforcing social distancing with utmost politeness. Love the awesome murals behind the stage by Eye Dr. Beautiful and triply. 👁 def impressed my date who’s new to Austin and hadn’t been able to see any live music yet. I’ve been keeping an eye out for my next show. Will def try the food next time as it looked amazing.“

“The absolute best breakfast burrito I’ve ever had. Let alone that it’s from a hotel food provider.
They have legit Starbucks coffee here and a breakfast & dinner Bistro.
Had the loaded tots, chicken wings and salad all good choices. You can’t go wrong with any choices from the BISTRO“

“Found out about this spot a couple months ago and it is now my favorite bar/pool in Austin. It’s not a tourist trap like some other spots , you can tell this place has a bunch of regulars and I can’t wait to be considered one! The vibes are always great , live music on the weekends is always so good!! All pool tables are always nice and clean and taken care of. The bartenders are all so nice and attentive but a special shout out to my girl CINDY you rock!! Love this place and will continue to recommend!“

“Tuesday’s Buy one pasta lunch, get one free was great. The three of us had one each & took one home“

“We no longer entertain regular movie theaters since the Alamo opened a south location. Alamo draft house for the win. 10/10⭐️s great food great service, great movies all the time.“

“The manager on duty on the evening of June 25th (I believe his name was Fernando) was incredibly polite, professional, and accommodating when I realized I had forgotten something for my order. He handled the situation with kindness and understanding, which I truly appreciated. His excellent customer service made a great impression, and I wanted to recognize him for going above and beyond. Thank you, Fernando, for making my experience such a positive one!“

“Sara was amazing! I never would have guessed it was her first week if she hadn’t told me. I actually left the South Congress location and came to the William Cannon location, and Sara completely changed my perspective on Chuy’s. Before this visit, I wasn’t a fan, but her friendly attitude, great service, and positive energy made all the difference. She was attentive, welcoming, and made sure everything was perfect. Thanks to Sara, I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“We love the Round Rock location! The bar is where our breakfast club meets every weekend and Stacey Guzman works so hard to give the BEST SERVICE!! Mary is a very supportive manager and always greets us with a smile! Please support this staff and location!!!!“

“Fun atmosphere great wings ice cold beer!“

“My server Alayna was the best! Not once did I have to ask for a drink refill - it would mysteriously appear on my table. She deserved the big tip I left for her and she definitely deserves a raise. Chili's better keep her because she's a real gem! BTW, the food was delicious as always.“

“Food was awesome loved there service“
