Shiner's Saloon

Came to drink and watch a UT game. Not a lot of screens with seating. So we went to the patio upstairs. Similar situation, but we managed to grab 4 up at the bar. Standard bar food. Bit the Chicken Nachos were better than expected. Pizza was thin, but not crispy. However they do get a A for effort. Asked if we could do half pepperoni and half supreme. Since they weren't that busy they accommodated our request. Pepperoni's were good. But the supreme side's veggies were abundant (lots of onions) but undercooked. Don't know if any meat was supposed to come on the Supreme side. Ours did not so I would have called it a veggie pizza.

What a weird, wild time I had at Shiner's Saloon. The place was hard to find at first because it's hidden so well. The three story building has a path that leads up to a gorgeous outdoor area and the bar has a great selection. The beer is cheap. The vibe is casual. The people were amazing (literally Delaney, the bartender, was doing sudoku and eating chicken out of a shot cup) chatting it up with me and the few patrons. Go see Delaney! This place is a gem.

Cool to check out and a nice vibe with nice service. But maybe it was a wed afternoon on the rooftop but the drinks disappointed even if the view was cool. Come for the view and get a beer. Save yourself the cocktail fiasco. It's called shiner for a reason. Get a shiner and you can enjoy your friends, the view and some nice country. Just serve beer and you are back to 4 stars. Will try again. Guess I'm just a glutton.

Drinks: 5/5 Standard bar selections at a great price.Service: 5/5 The bartenders are always down to chat and are quick to fill drink orders.Environment: 5/5 Shiner's really deserves a 6/5 here because the entire venue is incredible - it really has everything! Great classic bar vibes inside and a fantastic balcony on top that overlooks downtown Austin. Live music throughout the week makes this place a MUST STOP!

Shiner's Saloon is always so welcoming to our D&C photography group. I love the live music and the staff is friendly and inviting. The location is great and parking is a breeze with ramps nearby. They have a lovely outdoor patio with views of the skyline & when lit up at night it dazzles. The crowd typically is diverse and lively. Overall a great place to meet fiends and to mingle.

5/5 atmosphere and 3/5 food. Came for the Steelers game and the atmosphere was exciting and fun. The food however left much to be desired. The brisket nachos were one layer of basic tortilla chips with melted shredded cheese and super tiny pieces of brisket. This was super disappointing considering you barely could taste any brisket since the pieces were so small. I was expecting much more from a place in Texas. The pepperoni rolls had very minimal cheese and were mostly bread. They were dry and essentially inedible if it hadn't been for the ranch dressing that came with them.I would definitely return for the atmosphere and to drink, but I wouldn't eat here again.

Friendly bartenders. Good beer. Good music. Nice and cool in here. Good place to hang out and has a rooftop place to sit. Pretty big place. Highly recommend!

Tired, weak and unremarkable. Left the rooftop musician $10 (should always help these guys) which gave him $14 for the night. Explains why no one else paid attention.Medium/weak drinks. Downtown crowd. If our reputation is weird, this place needs to step it up.

If you want to catch live music in Austin, this is one of your must-stop places. There is music on the rooftop and at the bar on the 2nd floor. Yes, there is an elevator but I have not noticed anyone use it. You don't have to be a fan of Shiner Bock, but there is a great variety on tap. We have ordered the nachos or the sliders to share for a light meal in between music performances. Both are worth trying, just as long as you order at the bar. Oh yeah - absolutely do not walk out without making sure you closed your tab (just like anywhere else).

Awful service. Bar staff acted like they couldn't be bothered. Sad part, wasn't that crowded. Won't be coming back. Asking to much to get Rangers Astros on. Should be embarrassed.
