Donn's Depot

Expect an older crowd (40s-80s) but as a group of 27ish tourist females we got some local flavor of true live music & dancing in Texas! Loved the sweet older people having the time of their lives!

Micheladas are a must in summer & Holiday Decor is a must in Winter. Diverse crowd w/ long time regulars who love Matt, Tammy , Michelle Donn ++. True Austin bar that caters to locals not tourists

Off-beat and off the beaten path. Where the only thing stronger than the drinks are the Aqua Velva and Hai Karate. Just do it.

The oldest of the old school of the ATX! Make your way here with great haste.

Peep into the ladies room to see the great cozy spot with a weird pole and a high view of the bar . the staff are okay with it but just make sure no ones doing their stuff in there

The owner literally plays with the band, good sized dance floor and an ok beer selection . They'll sure pour you a shot or two if you ask though.

Snowflakes hang from ceiling beams in this old converted Missouri-Pacific railroad depot. With the ladies loo serving as an actual caboose, Donn’s Depot is, yes, a trippy full-throttle good ol’ time.

Donn's Depot was originally started by Donn Adelman, a staple of the Austin music scene since 1961, as a piano bar with revolving acts and performances each week by his own band.

Ladies - check out the women's restroom . You will want to hang out in there all night. You can spy on the crowd from a secret window. Find out for yourself!

Make friends with the bartender , sit outside and enjoy a pitcher with friends. A guaranteed good time, dance floor and all.

If you're into a mixed social scene, tasty beer and of course country dancing , Donn's is your spot.

Come on Wednesday nights for Frank Cavitt's awesome old school country music

One of the best dive bars in Austin. Friendly waitstaff , GREAT live music , and there's dancing every Friday.

Live music and an ambiance that takes you to a simpler time

If you are a female, be sure to take a trip to the plush women's bathroom . Deep thought and convo can be had in the elevated seating.
