What People Are Saying About Tiniest Bar In Texas
The Editor

Citysearch
In Short – Texans are known to exaggerate, but they don't often boast that something is the smallest. The bar is essentially the size of a snow cone stand, serving beers, margaritas, Mexican martinis and other mixed drinks. Located near an increasingly busy location, back behind Whole Foods and Pure Austin Gym and amongst the condo buildings, the bar serves a mix of neighborhood upscale professionals and residents who enjoy the comfortable patio chairs and low-key atmosphere. –

i love the tiny bar!
by grundletaint
I love this place. It's dirty, small, and right in the middle of downtown. Weird mix of people works for me, too!
- Pros: fireman's 4 on tap and 2 dollar bloody marys
- Cons: What are the drawbacks?

You've got to be kidding me. I ordered a vodka cranberry and a Lone Star and it cost $13. And, they were chintzy on the vodka. Seriously, WTF? The bar tender wasn't exactly oozing charm either. Not the cute dive it appears to be; gimmicky.
If you're looking for something low-key and partially outdoors, I'd recommend Club de Ville or Mean-Eyed Cat instead.
- Pros: . . .
- Cons: Price, Drink Quality, Deuchy Bar Tender

Low Key and Fun!
by sirenseye
It's so great to find a bar that is easy-going, but still all about atmosphere and customer service. Drinks are really cheap, and the live music is wonderful. Easy to get to - right on the street, but far away from the 6th Street drunkard crowd (which is awesome). I went last night and the Austin Ice Cream Festival truck pulls up and starts handing out free ice cream! The band - the Bus Stop Stallions - was really fun and energetic; perfect for a hot summer night. Check this place out to avoid the normal downtown crowds!
- Pros: Cheap drinks, live music, good service.
