Lavaca Street Bar in downtown Austin is a great bar to catch a sports game at! I came on a Friday evening to watch the college football national championship, and it was packed! There was a line to get in right before the game, but it didn't take too long. The bar itself is a lot bigger than it appears when you first walk in. It opens up to a bigger area around the corner, plus a spacious outdoor patio with a bar out there as well. They had the BEST food. With a large, diverse menu spanning from surf n turf and nachos, to mac n cheese and quesadillas. While the prices are on the higher side, you definitely get what you pay for. The portions are large and it comes out very quick and fresh.Definitely a new fav spot! Perfect for a game day outing or just a casual night out with great food and drinks! Ton of TVs and also had games like pool and shuffle board which is a fun plus.

I came to this sports bar on a game day but not for game watching purposes. The crowd was middle aged. It was busy and super loud inside, but there were some available tables outside. They are dog friendly inside too. I had the Peach Pounder cocktail, which was as juice-like as I imagined. It was very good. It is a Malibu peach drink with strawberry and lemon. The picture in the menu had some extra additions that did not come with my drink. They also don't list prices on their drinks menu, which is very bothersome, especially for such a well-established bar. Parking was a challenge as all the designated parking for this bar was full. They have a parking lot shared with the Broken Spoke and a retail center garage except the public part of the garage is only one tiny floor. We had to park in the adjacent shopping center plaza.

Lavaca Street Bar is dark, dingy, and packed with sports fans--not the place for those looking to throw back shots, dance and have fun. I felt like I was entering a forbidden man cave. This is a hardcore sports bar. The space is tiny, and it feels overcrowded--there's definitely too many people crammed in. Maybe if I were a middle aged man and really into sports, I'd enjoy the vibe, but it's just not my scene.

What better place to watch the OU v UT game other than lavaca bar? It was packed but the bar was so efficient! Got our drinks very quickly, their tvs were on every wall, you werent going to miss any touchdowns no matter how packed it is! We ordered some wings and they came out SO quick and boyyyy were they delicious!

Fun place with a great patio. Came into town for an extra long weekend and stopped here while walking around the area. Delicious margaritas and lots of seating. Those are two random features to put together, but must haves. Our bartender was also super friendly. Exceptional all around.

I thought this was a great place to watch a sports game. Arrived about 30 minutes before the start of the NCAA women's final basketball game and there were plenty of spots inside and out. By the start of the game, it was poppin and not everyone could find a seat. I thought this place earned 5 stars because of the abundance of TVs even outside, and the covered patio was appreciated. The food options were also worthy of 5 stars; what other sports bar offers fish and crawfish options?? Now, it wasn't the most gourmet food we ever had, but it was satisfying nonetheless.

There were canned & draft beers. The bar could've been cleaner. The bartender was friendly & gave recommendations. We went for the food. The vibe was chill, nothing memorable.

We popped in here while visiting Austin's famous 6th Street. The service was great and the margarita was fantastic. It seemed to be a local favorite with a great vibe.

A chair was launched at me by an employee. Eyes were rolled at me and I was served a drink I didn't want. Demanded a refund and was told to never contact them again. Horrible management and staff. Stay away from this place. Bad experiences.

Good place to grab a drink and food if you're out downtown. They do have several tvs around the bar and lots of tables.I ordered boneless wings, but unfortunately was given bone-in. The wings tasted pretty good. I also ordered a side of sweet potato fries, but didn't realize it was a whole a tray of fries. I recommend to look at the wings and fries as something to share. Unless you're really hungry.
