Rachel M. • March 14, 2012One of the best dive bars in Austin. Friendly waitstaff, GREAT live music, and there's dancing every Friday.
NAKID Social Sports in Austin • January 15, 2012Great dive bar with friendly staff! Have a bud light!
kim w. • March 17, 2011Great dive bar. Cool, laid back, gritty vibe. Ace pear on draft.
Rachel M. • June 8, 2018Really great dive bar with excellent cocktails - and drink specials! Staff VERY personable - this definitely counts as one of my fave neighborhood bars.
Stephanie M. • March 12, 2013One of my favorite dive bars of all time. It's dark, they have a great jukebox, amazing burgers and full bar. Enjoyed alone or with a group. Can't recommend enough.
Razorfish • May 4, 2012Chicken Shit Bingo every Sunday from 4-7. It's the best entertainment $2 can buy. Cheap beer, free chili dogs, and a live honky tonk band to set the mood. — Tannen C., Creative
Josh B. • March 18, 2016Great club, great lights, great vibe. One of the best small music venues in Austin.
Lindsay D. • December 23, 2015I love this place! A great little dive bar where you're sure to find a dancing partner (even if he's 40 years older than you).
B W. • November 18, 2014I love this place-- cheap drinks poured strong. Lots of outdoor seating. Dive bar vibe. Via 313 pizza.
Austin Chronicle • January 25, 2013The Scoot has been in business off and on for over 140 years, making it one of the oldest beer-slinging honky-tonks in Texas. We adore this dive bar, but the bathrooms are strictly to be avoided.
Scott B. • April 28, 2023Old school Austin indoor/outdoor venue with a dive bar feel. Amazingly well curated music lineups year round, especially during SXSW.
Scion Advisor • July 27, 2011Dance! Dance! Dance! They have goth night on Saturday, 80’s music on Sunday, and off-the-beaten-path performances throughout the week. We love the size, space, and staff at this popular venue.
Brian T. • January 8, 2019An essential dive bar of Austin. Amazing whiskey selection and they always have a rare gem of craft beer on tap. Simple, darkly lit, no BS, perfection. Staff has always been welcoming and cool.
Josh L. • April 2, 2016The Mgr here is amazing. There's been a couple times we've had very minor issues (no kids on patio, food took a while) & both times gave us drink tokens to make it up. Truly a professional.
Victoria S. • January 10, 2015A dark little hidey hole next to the Texas state capital. Inexpensive no fuss cocktails or beer. Great juke box. Atmospheric.
Kristina T. • January 2, 2016Good vibes, music variety, great people and plenty of atmosphere. One hell of a place to spend NYE. Thanks for the awesome evening y'all.
Carlos R. • August 6, 2015Awesome dive bar, and a great tribute to the Man in Black. Hey, is that Matthew McConaughey over there?
Jeremy T. • December 11, 2015The name makes it sound way more sophisticated than it is. It's like a clean dive bar. Still nice though
Miguel L. • March 16, 2019Great little dive bar atmosphere to hang out. The merch is also prime stuff so get yourself a hat and rep when you head out.
Denise B. • December 28, 2014Great burgers, love the salad with chicken. The cook on Sunday melts cheese on the chicken breast before putting it on the salad. Yum.
Jennifer K. • April 14, 2017Nice little outside bar with dog friendly area for hanging out. 2 outdoor stages for music!
