What People Are Saying About B.D. Riley's

In Short – The place was designed and built in Ireland, then taken apart, put into crates, shipped across the pond to be reassembled by Irish carpenters. The pub retains its Irish ambience by avoiding the chaos that often accompanies the Sixth Street scene. Regulars know they can get Southwestern appetizers or fish-and-chips without worrying that the crush of the crowd will prevent dining. Fresh beer and a wide variety of whiskeys and spirits are also available.

Best Fish n' Chips in Austin!

by angeleinaustin

Bar none, this is THE BEST place in Austin for Fish N' Chips!! My boyfriend lives in Cedar Park and I live in Round Rock and we travel to 6th Street at least once a week (sometimes twice) just to have fish n' chips at B.D Riley's! Outstanding food & atmosphere! Highly recommended!!

Pros: Food, atmosphere, live music
Cons: none
