"Love the atmosphere, food and staff"
I loved this place.....cool little bar with very friendly staff! We actually went to that location to eat at a BBQ truck (Brown's) BBQ. After getting our food the BBQ truck staff told us we could take our food inside the bar if we wanted to sit in AC, or we could sit on the bar's covered patio. I was also told that of we wanted an adult beverage with our meal that we would need to get it from the bar. I went in to get a beer (we opted to sit on the patio) and I was amazed at how clean and neat the bar was. The bartender was extremely friendly and the beer was cold. After eating, we went back in to get a cocktail. They had a list of specialy cocktails and I chose one that was a Blackberry something (the name was a spin on daiquiri, although it was nothing like a daiquiri..more like a martini). Bottom line is that it was delicious! Just wish it were closer to home so I could be a "Regular".
Came here with my pals last week to have some drinks and watch the UFC fight. At first it started off great, good atmosphere the bartenders were friendly and then it just went South from there. We got a spot outside we were trying to enjoy the fight but there was absolutely no sound on the fight and at the same time they were playing loud club music?? Why not just have the music in the background but still have the fight sound on? That would be a way better balance. Things got worse when the blonde bartender came outside and gave us a snarky message saying “We’re not gonna turn on the sound until the main fight” which is ridiculous for one fight?? Seriously. Going to take my group of friends to another bar that actually plays sound next time!
Perfect bar on a Corner, wether watching Da'boyz get beat...again. or stopping in for a cocktail after yoga class. Hanging with you're friends and getting some awesome food form one of the 2 food trucks outside. Put you're phones down, make eye contact, actually listen to the words coming out of your friends mouth. It can make all the difference in the world, for you both. We ordered the Austin Collins it was good, a little sweet but refreshing. Had some food, shared a laugh. Then I got to walk my darling love back to the car, holding hands, snuggling each other for warmth. It's Totally true, what they say. Everything does taste better with Love!
Well that was a pretty cringy response to your Patrons there bar manager. I was also there last week with my girlfriends and we were outside trying to enjoy the fights too. Not really sure if you understand what’s going on here. Your customers are not saying don’t play music at all, we’re saying consider separating the inside club music from the outside sporting events. You can have the music with the TV sound on at the same time, this is 2022. Would you want to watch the Super Bowl with no sound or the World Series? Make your bar stand out from the others and be a leader!
Love the atmosphere, food and staff. This isn't only for hotel guests come on in and enjoy the fun! Great options for lunch and dinner from sandwiches to a healthy portion of salmon. The food was cooked to perfection, intricately plated, so much flavor and just delicious! I also recommend coming on a nice day to enjoy the covered patio it has a great lounge vibe perfect for happy hour after work. I also enjoy working with the staff for private corporate events, the space inside is much larger than meets the eye and is great for hosting events.
My friend and I were looking to get out in the nice warm evening weather but didn’t want to go somewhere that was COVID central (ie indoors w/lots of ppl crowded inside) and we came across this spot. Plenty of outdoor space to sit and have a brisket sandwich along with a strong cocktail. They were also playing great music—for a couple of hours, life felt normal. It was a great experience and a small escape. Had their seasonal Cranberry Thanksgiving Margarita and it was I would def go there again.
The staff here are great! So friendly and want to make sure you like your drink. Great variety of options for beer and cocktails, and they have some good specials during the week. Wine options aren’t great, but that’s not surprising for this type of bar. They have the MLB package so we come here a lot to watch the games. Staff is always happy to switch the channel to the game you want to watch. The food truck outside, Browns BBQ, is phenomenal and you can get a free plate on Sunday with a $10 bar tab!
For the most part I dig this place. It's a neighborhood bar I can walk to. Wouldn't wanna park there as number of spots are limited. The main feature for me is the Browns BBQ trailer. They most certainly know what they're doing when it comes to"Que". Can't remember what day of the week your bar tab comes with a free plate. Thursday maybe. I said I dig it for the most part. It can get too crowded (for my taste) very quickly. Beyond that you should try it.
I recently ate breakfast at Corner Bar and had an amazing experience!! The food was fresh and the service was amazing. I had Lauren (definitely ask for her) and she was so personable and helpful. Having been in the hospitality industry, I know how hard it can be and she made it look easy! I highly recommend breakfast there if you're visiting Austin.

This place has an amazing vibe, great cocktails and very friendly bartenders. Alex, in particular, is very friendly and helpful. I’ve never been to this city and he was very generous with his time when giving me recommendations for places to visit. It’s always best to get your info from a local. If you’re in the area, check this place out for a nice daytime lunch!
Good beer selection and friendly staff. Very small parking lot but street parking behind it is often available. Ring toss, Cornhole, Golden Tee. Popcorn machine. There's normally a BBQ food truck out front that serves lunch. Plenty of indoor + outdoor seating but it can definitely get packed. One of our favorite neighborhood spots.
This is a Must Stop! Brown's BBQ is amazing and they are right out front. The bar itself is small inside, but offers a patio with picnic tables & standing room area with darts. It is a great bar to drop by for a quick one, or arrive early and catch a game or fight. Always worth stopping for BBQ, since you are there anyways.
The Corner Bar is a little slice of what Austin used to be before the fascists in the city council destroyed most of it. You still see guys with Stetsons and all manner of odd people who you just know have marvelous stories to tell, and guy out back that tell you how to peel a crawfish. Go there. Even if it's just once.
UFC fights shown here. Seems like one of the few bars on South Lamar which do that. Austin has sudden dips in cold temperatures, so I was a little disappointed that there were not more heaters in place considering half of the place is outside. But, the crowd seems to be a great mix of people and very warm and welcoming
This is quite honestly my favorite bar to visit on a Sunday. They have the best deal I think. A $10 bar tab earns you a ticket to get a healty serving of BBQ from Brown's which is right infront. They also are very dog friendly, meaning you pup can sit inside and enjoy the A/C during our hot summer days.
I mostly went there to get water but the food and drinks look so good that I plan to try it when I can

Low-key one of the best neighborhood bars around. Atmosphere feels more local and relaxed than a lot of other bars on South Lamar. Food trucks here are worth checking out as well, especially Brown's BBQ. Great place to watch the game, although it does get crowded on Sundays during football season.
Just next to Browns Barbque. I got food at Brown's and sat at the bar here. Very friendly staff, decent drink selection, and the friendliest customer base I've meet since being in Austin. Great place. Get some good food and enjoy your visit. A must visit if your from out of town like me.
We came to corner bar for my birthday and the food was amazing. My waitress gaby was also phenomenal. We ordered nachos and burgers and the food was delivered quicker than I expected. If you come here I highly recommend the nachos and the tres leche cake for dessert . …
This is a great place to have a beer while you are walking downtown. It’s right around the corner from Tacodeli. Good place to people watch. Joe the bartender was friendly and helpful. Gave us some good information on things to do. Enjoyed our time there and recommend.
Dog Friendly!! They put out water and treats for the pups, the service is outstanding, the fries (which I usually don't eat) are a human treat! Even tho the temp was 98-100 deg its nice and breezy on the patio very tolerable aka no sweat. I will be back soon!!
This bar is neat, well kept, with decent selection. But I honestly only go there for the amazing Brown's BBQ food truck out front. They let you take the food into the bar in hopes to get you to buy some drinks to accompany your bbq, and it works every time.
Great low key bar, went on the day before Christmas eve, wasn't busy at all probably due to the day, but place is nice and well kept. Bar tenders are nice and attentive. They have Fresca which most places so not which is a plus. Definitely can recommend.
Superb staff.... something about the vibe there is light and airy, aside from the ceilings. Feng shui on point, though. Also, I took my New Orleans friends there for the food trucks when visiting and they RAVED. It just happened to be the
Nice little (really- it's pretty tiny) bar. Good beer selection and prices are pretty average. BYO food is nice also as the bar doesn't serve food, there's a bbq truck out front- although it's never been open any time I've been here,
Great place, great selection of draft beers and spirits. The music seemed a but loud, although i haven't been there before i don't know if that is the norm or not but i felt like my friend and i were trying at each other to be heard.
Access and parking are a bit of a bear, but the drinks rock; the service is friendly; and the food from Browns trailer outside is unparalleled.

The only bad things about this bar is that there is no consistency with prices. And that is what keeps me away. I work industry as well so it's disappointing.

Excellent atmosphere,encompassed with true Austin Weirdness. Plus it's local owned & operated completes its place in my life. Great staff with decent drink specials. A definite Austin EXPERIENCE that shouldn't be over looked.
Great bar and great vibes! Stopped in for the world series expected a crowd, but it wasn't terribly busy wich was awesome. Service was super quick and a big selection. The food trucks out front had some great food too!!
This is a great neighborhood bar. The drinks are fuss free but cheap and there are games on the outdoor patio (ex.darts). There is normally a BBQ food truck parked outside. it's a great bar just to relax with friends.
On busy corner. Parking can be difficult. Bar bigger than it looks, has a patio area as well. Reasonably priced drinks. No food but a couple food trucks parked onsite. The bbq seemed to be really popular.
Love this place. Super simple and chill bar with a friendly vibe. It's hard to miss Brown's BBQ food trailer parked in the front, but make sure you try. Solid BBQ here and you can take it in to the bar.
Great bar, one of my favorites in the area. The beer selection is incredible, staff is friendly and great place to bring the dog. The only negative is the parking but that’s not uncommon on South Lamar
Great little place to hang out with friends. Their mezcal cocktail is amazing. The service is fast and the bartenders are friendly.

Pretty much a standard bar, though with a nearly non existent parking area. Call ahead to see if the weekend ‘bar tab of 15$ for food’ specials are going on, as they don’t seem to always rub them.
The bartender makes an excellent Grapefruit Margarita and is a good talker. Just a bar but there is a barbecue truck out front & you can take your food into the bar as they don't have drinks.
Bartender was not very friendly. It's a decent looking bar. I didn't eat here so I don't know about the food.

Nice bar for hanging out watching sports or just chilling the food trucks outside serve some delicious bbq or Thai food. Beers are cold and the staff are very nice and attentive.
Super cool and by cool I mean amazing cold AC and cold beer! Love the Golden tee and other fun games. Best crawfish boil and outdoor patio. Dog friendly fun Austin vibes!
Bartenders here are a whole vibe! Specialty drinks are so good… the guys got to watch UFC fights and us girls got to hang out and listen to the spot on playlist …
Corner bar is my neighborhood go-to (I go way too often probably...) . Bartenders are great, space is good with lots of seating, nice patio. Food trucks are great, too
Great choice for a relaxing Sunday. Wide selection of beer on tap (local and domestic). Bartenders are patient and helpful! Make sure to grab some bbq at Browns
Awesome spot to watch NFL games and the food trucks outside run cool promos like after 3pm on Sundays, a $15 bar tab gets you a free plate of food.
I only ran in for power hour, but the vibe was so nice! I can't believe I slept on this place for so long!

Great little locals bar. I wish there were many more like this. Two amazing food trucks in the parking lot. I don't know which is better.
The neighborhood bar you want to live near. Tons of options, awesome local food trucks and the excitement of being right on Lamar.
Awesome staff, awesome bar, they even had free tacos for the FIFA world cup final. Love this place to watch sports.
