This super secret bar is one of the last remaining old-Austin institutions, and it's easy to miss if you aren't looking for it. It's everything you want a dive bar to be: dimly lit, chill staff, pool table, strong drinks, and fun soul/blue bands playing most nights.

A coveted community space in Austin, and a must-see for tourists. This "pool" is actually a spring-fed swimming hole which maintains a constant temperature of 68 degrees year round - very cold in the summer but surprisingly warm in the winter!
