An 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.

Greg Ackerman

A great East Austin neighborhood bar that is LGBTQ friendly with quality craft spirits & beer .

Sharon Jennings

Love this divey spot in East Downtown Austin. Take in the cool art and hard drinks. Very cool atmosphere and nice staff . They will make whatever cocktail fantasies you have come true.

'Most of the time I want to try something new so this is a good place for that,' says Contigo bartender Houston Eaves.

This laid-back beer & liquor den's suds selection is currently the largest in the '02, Order up a Fireman 4, tacos from the veteran trailer Taco Selene , and relax until you need a refill. Read more

If you're feeling adventurous and they have the Live Oak Grodziske, give it a try. Very smoky, Polish-style beer .

On our TOP E.6th spots list. If you're a draft beer enthusiast, stop by. Peelander-Fest during SXSW will be awesome. Oh, ya and FREE! More deets on do512.com

Great local drinks and two food trucks open late out front! Plus, free wifi that's pretty good. Wi-Fi password is 'gracklebox '.

Kyle Bunch

Another of the Eastside's great dives. Bonus points for the East Side King trailer in the backyard .

Earth Day is a great day to get shitfaced. 5% of your bar tab goes to support eco-friendly causes.

Great whiskey selection !

Alexis Smith

A local is stealing bikes locked up outside of this bar . Don't believe the sign outside. They don't have a camera . They know people are stealing bikes from here and aren't telling their customers.

Karina Vivas

I like the atmosphere, but the bartender had a little attitude in regards to any questions regarding beers ...

Ben Baron

Divey without being sleazy.
