Cool smaller music venue, with VIP style lounge area with couches etc. up by the side of stage and several other tables and wrap around bar seating. Outside patio is nice for conversation as well. Staff is attentive and gives excellent customer service. Great pitcher prices and some specials depending on the night. When there isn't live music, it's still a great place to relax and grab a drink or shoot some pool. Great hole in the wall neighborhood bar.Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible entrance and handicapped parking near the door.

Free parking and the best staff ever assembled under a single roof.You know, I've moved away. Yet, any thought of returning to the Space City is rooted around my return to the family I have at Acadia. Seeing Mandy, Jeremy, and Tommy. even if just for a few moments a year, helps keep the world spinning at the prefect angle... the seasons still come as expected... all is right in the world.No. I don't work there. I don't own a share in the company. But, this is still my Cheers, and I'm always glad I came.Update: it's been a year, but a visit to Texas wouldn't be the same without seeing a good live show and the crew running everything at Acadia. Always a good time, good music and a great pour.

I love these people man! If you are the type to have a "designated" bar, this is the one! It's so homey in here and the drinks are STRONG. Great prices too, I get my money's worth every time! Looking forward to coming back! and oh yeah the bartenders are super friendly! Thanks for everything.

The Lunara Viking themed show was amazing. Great sound. Cool venue.However, the female bartender was totally in the weeds. I asked for 3 bottles of water and would’ve tipped her $15 for them. She said “there are jugs of water and cups on the floor” I then said “do yall sell bottled water?”Where she then rudely SCREAMED at me “I SAID THERE IS WATER JUGS AND CUPS ON THE FLOOR” or something to that effect. To where the guy sitting at the bar in front of me looked at my friend and said “they sell bottled water..”…like I don’t want a small cup of water I’m going to spill in a jam packed venue that i also have to get up and refill every time I take a drink. It was a 4oz cup! Not even a 16oz solo cup.Lastly I wanna say the barback Forrest was SO POLITE. Any other time I’ve been there the bartender Mandy is nothing but nice. Wish she would’ve been working that night.Other girl needs a major attitude adjustment. If she kept that attitude up all night I would imagine it negatively affected her tips.
It was so smokey in there I couldn't stay long. Loved the band that played (Transmission lost)

I really do want to come back and check out metal bands that come to town but the fact that a music venue that allows smoking inside discourages me. I hate smelling like smoke and don't want any health problems from patron's bad habitsI hope you consider changing this, otherwise I'll stick to Concert Pub, BFE, Pub 529, and elsewhere where they play metal bands

Well,this establishment has been around since 1981(I was 13 years old at the time),I didn’t step foot in here until sometime around early to mid 90s in my mid 20s during my decade of decadence. Lol. Anyways,hung out here during the early 2000’s,played here for the first time in 2007 through 2015 with some of my cover bands. And now let’s fast forward to December 3,2023, I’m assisting with the School Of Rock Champion Forest End Season showcase with over 15+ bands happening all day. I’ve seen a lot of bands here,I’ve seen a lot of benefits supporting people of the community,I’ve met a ton of musicians along with sound engineers,they’ve had some of the coolest bar staff that I have met over the years,and they’ve always managed to stay open through all the different decades of ownership. I’ve quit smoking almost 20 years ago now so I don’t go to very many establishments that allows smoking with live music. But,if y’all wanna come see and support some of the best live music ever,this is one of those hidden gems that I recommend you check out some time soon. Long live rock ‘n’ roll. Peace ev1?
Love it ?
