Since I don't get out so much anymore, my South Austin knowledge isn't what it used to be.Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10588251769024959566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24093430.post-37934238909054164842007-04-19T11:34:00.000-05:002007-04-19T11:34:00.000-05:00I second Mean Eyed Cat.

I'd say Grape Vine is first choice, unless she comes on a Sunday – I think they get the slight edge for best beer selection in town.Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10588251769024959566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24093430.post-24422986332961145072007-04-18T12:39:00.000-05:002007-04-18T12:39:00.000-05:00Yeah, I thought about putting the Alamo in there. ...Yeah, I thought about putting the Alamo in there. I guess I was mainly thinking about bars, but Alamo's beer selection is fantastic. And as you and I found out together, Alamo is especially amazing when it's a beer-themed movie!Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10588251769024959566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24093430.post-23378446336952652262007-04-17T15:17:00.000-05:002007-04-17T15:17:00.000-05:00Two more places that I would consider equally impo...Two more places that I would consider equally important. First is The Mean Eyed Cat (themeaneyedcat.com). While the beer selection isn't anything amazing, they do have Live Oak, and possibly Independence Brewing now too I think. It's really the Johnny Cash juke and semi-dive atmosphere that make it fun. El Arroyo across the street for good mexican food too.<BR/><BR/>Number 2, Alamo Drafthouse (drafthouse.com). Movies and beer, that's all ya gotta know. The downtown location has the more funky events.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
