25 Best Beer Bars in Austin

“Great date spot. Feels high end but comfortable all at the same time. Small, cute, funky space.Gooey cheese, chewy and crunchy crust, solid sauce. What’s not to enjoy?The service was the best part. They were amazing to me and my exhausted kids when we ended up there mistakenly thinking they had a type of pasta my kid wanted.They didn’t. But. They were amazing to us.They took excellent care of us.Take someone you care for here when you want to feel “comfortable and high end” at the same time.Vegetarian options: Pizza with no meat is vegetarian so lots of options there.Dietary restrictions: It really is what it is. Even non- pizza has high probability of cross contamination.Parking: There is paid street and a paid lot. Both fill up. So does the tiny restaurant.Kid-friendliness: They were awesome to my kids even though this not really a spot designed for kids.Wheelchair accessibility: Did not seem super easy for someone in a wheelchair to navigate, but it can be done.“

“I recently dined at this restaurant around the corner from me that left me thoroughly impressed. The portions were generous, satisfying even the heartiest appetites. The standout dish for me was the flavorful and perfectly cooked Hunan Chicken – a must-try that exceeded my expectations. The overall experience was delightful, and I highly recommend this place for both quantity and quality lovers.“

“The staff are great and so very friendly! The atmosphere is beautiful and pleasant, with plenty of large trees and flower beds. There is lots of space to spread out and plenty of outdoor seating with tables. Indoor seating too. Very clean! 4 food trucks are there with tacos, Thai, bbq/biscuits, and American fare. They also have pastries from SourDuck, which are very good. Parking can be difficult to find on weekends, especially around brunch, but it's never kept me from going.Parking: Parking can be difficult to find on weekends, especially around brunch, but it's never kept me from going.

“This establishment is a must visit. The food and atmosphere is wonderful. The food is great and the service is top notch. Review by Gabriel A Culiat“

“The “ Thunder “, which is a cold Brew Coffee mixed with some sweetener is Tasty and gets you going ! I would suggest trying that drink !“

“Like the new spot. It's big! Indoor seating and a huge covered Biergarten outside. Dog & kid friendly. Bring your discs and walk the disc golf course. Beer is great as always, although I hate plastic cups. Didn't try the food truck as the line was super long. There's room for another 1-2 trucks so hopefully they'll expand.“

“We`re proud to have Zilker Brewing as one of our top-rated partner venues for our line-up of bar crawls this season. Always a great place to party. Friendly staff and bartenders, amazing food and drinks. Come join us.“

“Omg this play helps the soul. Super green, super smiley employees. Didn't taste the food, but I have a feeling it will be good. Somehow all the customers seemed to be super sweet and warm as well. I guess great places attract great people!“

“A lot has changed in Austin since I was a kid. Batch is one of the few improvements. Go early for the kolaches. Come later for the brews and food truck. They had great veg options and some of the best beers I tasted during a recent visit. They produce a great variety, including sours. They had this one ale with cannabis terpenes that was draught-only. Brag to your friends on the coasts that they never had something so crisp and good on a hot day. They just stand there stunned with a look of loss on their face.The boys behind the counter threw in a can of something for free. God bless them with easy living and cheap rent. I tipped them big, but they deserve a raise, whatever their pay may be now.“

“Came here looking for a bite to eat after a haircut and hands down best fresh pasta I’ve eaten!! The sauce of my truffle Alfredo was so creamy and rich yet not too rich that it couldn’t be finished. The waiter gave me a good white wine recommendation as well a little sweet and dry to match the pasta. My Caesar was fresh and well prepared. The bread was to die for!! It was light and airy and wished I asked where or how that made it. Although the server was nice they didn’t check on me often that I was left without a drink most of the time, but other than that this place is amazing!! I wonder why it was so slow this place needs more people in it!“

“Literally my favorite neighborhood bar. The crowd is usually younger people, but not the annoying young people. & Ben, the bartender, just give him all your money. He’s the best bartender ever. After being here twice he already had mine & my fiancé’s order down. Will be here Every. Single. Night.“

“great place with great employees“

“After an extended stay in Colorado, this was the first drink I had when I got back to my favorite state. The Pittmans embodied the feel of Texas in their seltzers. It is easy to see the passion that is poured into Blue Norther.“

“Wether I’m performing live or just hanging out with friends, I love this place.“

“Great pizza, good service, and a really good atmosphere.“

“Highly recommend!! Best coffee i’ve had in a very long time.“

“Coffee was good, food options restricted, environment dark, and workers were limited in their enthusiasm for being there. I’d give it a second shot, though b/c their sign rocked.Dietary restrictions: no gluten free optionsParking: Gotta walk or park in another parking lot because it’s limited“

“Lots of great pizza and salad choices. They also have a huge beer selection along with wine. The pizza was tasty, fresh and they piled on the toppings, no skimping there!“

“Really great people here. Lovely place to hang.“

“We were looking for a vegan place for dinner and went to Beer Plant. Sat in the outside section with our dog (it’s a covered corridor with fans, not a garden) and it was perfect. The corridor has nice lighting and gets good breeze.The starters were excellent, especially the Brussel sprouts in miso sauce and the beetroot hummus. Cauliflower wings had too much vinegar and tasted sour. French fries were avoidable. The mains were good. It’s hard to find vegan lasagna and Beer Plant has one which was above average.Big Bend burger came with a side of kidney beans and was just about okay. Lentil Wellington was somewhat disappointing. Desserts were great, especially the peach cobbler.I think the next time we were order more starters and desserts and maybe skip the mains.“
