Great brewery with great vibes. Friendly staff, great beers, and large space with lots of seating. The Fructis IPA was one of the best IPAs I’ve had in the city so far. Parking is very limited. Coop so no tipping here. Happy hour Tuesday- Friday! Great food selection on the menu. Inclusive and welcoming environment. The chicken Tikka fried sandwich is a delicious combo of a classic fried chicken sandwich and great curry flavors.
The Czar salad was the perfect dinner. I added the fried chicken tenders and was not disappointed. 10/10 recommend, nothing can beat the house made dressings.
Omg get the chicken sandwich and put spicy buffalo sauce on it.Just do it.Great service, awesome vibe, and some AMAZING ranch dressing!The music wasn't super loud and annoying.The beer was cold and I loved the Self Esteem as well as the Waterloo. You will not be sorry coming here!Will absolutely be coming back.
Great home brew beer, food is exceptional and location is perfect.They have water bowls for your pet! Specially on the 100° weatherParking is free, the train and bus station are right in front of it, perfect for going to Downtown.The menu change during the day so make sure to see the menu before heading to this location.Board games are available in this location.You can become a member for a fee and get good perks out of it.I like the new cut of their fries, much better than their previous cut. Would recommend ordering the chicken sandwich but order the sauces on the side. I tried the buffalo sauce and it was not great, the spice level was great but it just ruined the sandwich for me.
Didn't get a chance to try the food, but loved the Fructis from my flight! Lots of in house options to choose from as well as guest taps.
Incredible beer, incredible food, incredible ppl. It’s so awesome that they pay their staff fairly. Great art. Amazing vibe. Can’t say enough good things about this place. Best brewery I’ve been to in a long time.
Great food, great people, great beer. We love Blackstar! It has become a staple for my wife and I. We sit on the patio with our dog, we like the causal atmosphere, the people centric vibe (no distracting TVs) and that by supporting the coop we are making the world a better place one beer at a time :-)
Still a great place to grab a beer. We used to take the train here and let the kids run wild. It’s not as busy on a Saturday early evening as it once was with all the competition around. But the beer is still fantastic and the atmosphere is still chill. An Austin original staple.
Came here with some friends after finding out another place we frequent was closed and decided to try it out. Turned out to be a great decision. Staff was courteous and helpful and the food was pretty good. Was a little pricier than I was expecting, but still worth it. Had the impossible burger and was delicious! I'm personally not a fan of the seasoned fries but my friends loved them. My friends absolutely loved their meals and helped themselves to my fries. You clear off your own table, but they made sure the clearung bins stayed empty for the next table. Will definitely go back!
This has been a local hangout of mine for years. It's a great place to get reliable American food (with occasional ethnic options), and they have a good selection of rotating and mainstay house beers, as well as favorites from around town. Plenty of seating both inside and out. Staff is always friendly and knowledgeable, and I've never felt rushed when I've spent hours chatting with friends there.
