Shangri-La

Cool bar with a nice outside patio area . Food truck in back. Definitely dive bar vibe with the option of a Pug Mug. Yes. A Pug Mug.

The kickass, always-packed patio here can keep us happily captive all evening. Even if you don’t feel like drinking, it’s worth the trip just for a steamed bun from food trailer East Side King.

Perhaps it is the giant patio , the ’90s arcade games or the big selection of bottled beers and drinks, or that Shangri-La is one of the first bars you see on East Sixth keeps locals coming back.

Ton of hipsters lol!!! Everyone was pretty cool. Love the loud music on the jukebox ! Me and friends stuck out like a soar thumb. Pool tables , sick patio , and old arcade games !! I'd go back for sure!

Once upon a time Shangri-La was even more magical and complete with its own East Side King food truck in the backyard . Alas, how the times have changed.

Another hidden gem in east Austin. Shangri-La has a large back area to smoke and visit the outside bar aswell as a laidback inside with loud music and full size pool tables . Lounge around and be a l

$3 Lonestar + relaxed vibes . Great place to come on a week night.

Cool, divey atmosphere and great outdoor seating . I hope the new apts going up nearby don't ruin this spot.

You know... they have extended happy hour ! It goes all the way until 9pm and don't forget to go to East Side King in the back!

Go to Shangri-La the last Sunday of every month and prepare to dance . The monthly Sock Hop is so fun! If you don't mind sweaty hipsters . Take a breather outside for some great people watching . Read more

Sock Hop last Sunday of every month. Who wouldn't want to dance to classic 50's tunes (and some that play homage). Step away from the sweaty hipsters to take a breather outside on the HUGE patio . Read more

Great place, big patio with lots of tables and cheap drinks .

Great backyard area. Sadly no longer has a food truck .

Enjoyed it, small venue with good drinks

The coolest bartenders around. I love 'em all 'cept fr Joe and his mustache. I mean, ESPECIALLY Joe and his mustache.

Definitely go upstairs and outside! It's an awesome atmosphere!

giant patio , super nice bartenders , pup friendly and free wi-fi. you pretty much can't ask for more...

All but 2 of the arcade games were out of service. The change machine was out of service as well . While I appreciate that it's quieter than the main 6th street line-up, if you're looking for a good ga

Went here last night to get a drink before we headed out to another place... THE BARTENDER SUCKED!! We ended up just walking out..

A great place to do coke or trade mix-tapes with some huge piece of shit.

Get the chicken skin bun at East Side Kings in the back.

Badass bar . Big outdoor area .

Only place in Austin (afaik) with mint fernet! Get some shots!

Hey everyone! Try the beer . It's so good.

If you're on east 6th you need to stop here. Nicest staff all around and sickest jukebox selection.

No I will not fall for a bartender . She knew who I was and didn't hesitate to give me a big hug, haven't been here since kickball time, and she have me her number...it's going to be a good year..

The Second Sunday Sock Hop is not be missed. Great music and good times.

The doorman was reading Game of Thrones. I can appreciate that.

Bill Murray once bartended here during SXSW. There, now you can act unimpressed when someone inevitably tries to tell you the story.

$10 for 2 really well made long islands ? I'm down

Great patio .

Exceptional bar staff ! Especially Joe and Sam. Tip them well !

Make sure you play a song on the Jukebox . It has an awesome selection and grab a woodchuck pear cider

Go to the Eastside kings truck out back!!

Avoid the hipster door girl. The femme Nazi obviously spends too much time in the tattoo parlor and not enough time studying the valid forms of identification in the State of Texas.

Great. Fun!

Get a Tom Collins

seen bill murray and that chick from the OC up in here..so whatev

There's a small arcade inside which includes Mortal Kombat 2. Awesome.

Best East Side Bar .

$2 Tuesdays, domestics & well drinks .

Sock hops ! Need we say more?

2 dolla tuesdays, all night happy hour !

Pricey beer

Old school arcade games in a bar...buy Mrs. Pacman a drink.

Pbr a flowing

the doorman really was an asshole. if you want friendly , you should probably go somewhere else.

Unfriendly hotties. #meangirls

Check out the Capitol building , if you are lucky you may run into Rick Perry's Optometrist !
