didn't like it...why you might ask?

by austinflower

I once use to go to college. I know all about trendy stuff. Ugly sneakers, tight pants and that disheveled look. Girls with asymmetrical hairstyles. We went there during the sock hop. I was super excited. My excitement turned to disappointment as I saw the crowd. UHHh, one more trendy booted person with tight gray pants and I wanted to upheave. I loved the bartenders. They were fast and furious and gave me the best service ever. However, I didn't want to see one more white person (I am white) dancing out of beat to the music with an O face. So we headed home early. I decided I am over the college scene and hipsters who make their consumptive fashion centered life styles the bane of my existence . Not everyone at the sock hop was bad, but there was a large portion of loud sorority type obnoxiousness going on.

  • Pros: tetris, outside seating, fast bartender
  • Cons: ugly, bad scenester college kids

Hip and wallet-friendly hangout on the Eastside is perfect for patio lounging.

In Short
Enter from the rear at this charming East Sixth dive. Plenty of intimate seating areas help define the atmosphere indoors while two pol tables, a couple of 80s-era arcade games and a jukebox (featuring plenty of Austin selections) keep patrons occupied. Well drinks are happy hour priced all day every day, with PBR and Miller High Life tallboys dominating many a tabletop. The back patio with its own beer garden is spacious and suits the cool clientele to a tee. Free WiFi.
