Banger's Sausage House & Beer Garden
A massive Rainey Street beer garden with over 100 taps, house-made sausages, and live music on the patio. During SXSW, Formula 1 weekend at COTA, and UT Longhorns football Saturdays, Banger's becomes Austin's ultimate outdoor sports-and-music gathering spot.
Midnight Cowboy
Reservation-only speakeasy on Dirty Sixth Street hidden behind an unmarked door, serving exquisitely crafted cocktails. Austin FC fans and SXSW visitors seek out this intimate hideaway for a refined escape from the city's raucous live music scene.
Easy Tiger Bake Shop & Beer Garden
Easy Tiger's East Sixth Street beer garden is a sprawling outdoor space that has become a favorite pre-game gathering spot for UT Longhorns fans, live music festival-goers, and Formula 1 fans descending on Austin during the US Grand Prix weekend. The enormous outdoor deck, excellent German-style sausages, and carefully curated draft beer list provide the perfect warmup to a big Austin sports weekend, and the relaxed atmosphere encourages lingering. On Longhorns home-game Saturdays, burnt orange fills the garden and the vibe rivals any college town tailgate.
Meanwhile Brewing Co.
A sprawling South Austin beer garden and brewery with picnic tables, food trucks, and live music under the Texas oaks. Longhorns and Austin FC fans unwind here after matches with house-brewed lagers perfectly calibrated for the Texas heat, and the dog-friendly policy seals the deal.
