The Tiniest Bar in Texas

Really isn’t a «bar» at all, albeit yes, small. It’s more of a «patio» that happens to serve cheapish booze ($ 3 Coors light, $ 5.50 local craft beer…) from a little window counter. Interesting indeed and worth a stop when in the downtown area on your way to another destination… particularly on those perfect spring or fall upper 70ish days, as it is almost entirely exposed to the elements despite the propane heaters on-​site throughout our «winter» months.
During the scolding hot Texas times that consist of most of the year, there are misters going and the AC blasted ladies room (VERY clean BTW) both offer cool retreats from the heat. Some great people watching right on 5^th in the Warehouse District, can find street parking relatively easy on most days, they hold some fun trivia on select nights, live music or blaring jukebox, and there’s a food truck right next door in case you need to nosh.
Nice service. Fido friendly. Free WiFi.

I love this bar. Super awesome staff! Very good drink specials. Food trucks right next door. Ample seating for high volume. They have heaters and canopies for when the weather gets a bit rough. Will return!

I’ve bought drinks a handful of times since we love to come to the lot next door to get food truck food, and I honestly haven’t been too impressed. I’m a bit surprised by their prices given their location and storefront, having paid 12 for a mixed drink which to be honest was nothing special.

This place is great. Small but decent selection of bottles and cans plus a couple drafts. Food is available from the food trucks right next door and the patio is quite large too.

Good atmosphere, great food trucks, and fun little tiny bar with good drinks. Parking was plentiful as well so added bonus! I like the bar cat :)

No place to park!

The tiniest bar in Texas is the best bar in Texas we love the margaritas they are really delicious. I would also recommend any drink from the tiniest bar you can sit outside and enjoy the cool Texas breeze and the company of your breast friends. Go tiniest!!!

I come here all the time. Very chill atmosphere, great music, and plenty of drink options. Definitely my favorite hangout spot.

Great bartender! Great drinks, sweet guy who serves up drinks and is super friendly! Bottoms up!

The tiniest bar in Texas is a bit of a misnomer. Yes, the bar itself is just a walk-​up window, but the covered patio, which is clearly part of the bar, is quite large. However, they are skirting some legal lines by not considering the patio part of the bar because everyone was smoking. Smokers rejoice, all others avoid.
My sazerac was pretty good. I didn’t see a jigger, shot glass, or other measuring tool being used for the cocktails — so they are definitely winging it. This didn’t affect my drink, but my colleague took a sip of his pimms cup and made a horrible face. He spent many years in London so he knows a good pimms when he tastes it and this was definitely not it. We ordered a pale ale for our second round and I would highly suggest sticking with beer here.
The location is convenient but I’ll spare my lungs and skip this place in the future.

Love that it’s a short walk from my apt and they usually have a double IPA on draft.
Bartenders are always friendly and know their stuff.

It’s been a while since I been here. But now it’s close to my current job and I’m glad to be back. Relaxed atmosphere and decent drink prices. The beer garden been remodeled a bit from last time I used to frequent. Great place to hang out or chill after work.

All the previous reviews nailed it. tiny walk up bar with huge patio. great vibe and view of the city. On a busy street so park on the street.

This place is not really a bar. It’s really a deck with a drive in window size bar. I love anyplace where I can drink outside so this place made me happy. It’s probably a bit touristy but hey they have alcohol, a large deck and large tv’s to watch a game. What more do you need.

Tiny… like when you nickname your nephew «Tiny» and he plays center for UT football.
TVs are irritating in bars. Unless you like them. Then they are entertaining.
Drinks were average, nothing special.
Possibly the coldest women’s restroom south of an outhouse in Minnesota in January with windchill temperatures well below 40 below. It is ridiculous. Unless it is 105 outside.
Then it is glorious.

Tiny bar, BIG PATIO! And it’s within staggering distance on my apartment. I love that it feels like a neighborhood bar and not some douchy west 6^th shiny shirted meat market. They have Green Flash on tap for FIVE BUCKS!!! Did you hear me??? FIVE BUCKS… hops are expensive and this is the good shit people… what a great deal.
Dog friendly too, as in i can walk up to the bar and order a beer with my pups. Lucky Puccias sandwiches share the patio which makes this place pretty much the perfect spot in Austin.

This is definitely a tiny bar, as in it’s not really a bar-​bar, just a patio with a walk up window to order drinks at. The inside only consists of restrooms, or at least that’s all I saw. Then there is the patio, and then downstairs more patio. We ordered some drinks on a Monday afternoon, sat at one of the tables and people watched. Good spot for that.
I couldn’t figure out parking at first, but I’m from Dallas and I’m not used to the fancy Austin meters, but once I did we were set. So for newbs it’s street parking only.

Teeny tiny with great beers on tap. I was a bit confused when the bartender was out drinking with a group but he was pleasant and knowledgable and even if TABC isn’t a fan, I was. Sadly the trailer outside was closed so we couldn’t feed out hungry compadre, but it was a fun stop, regardless.

Tiniest bar?
More like «huge outdoor patio with cheap lone star tall boys and a bunch of condo-​living people that are fun to sit around and judge, because they’re totally rich, and it makes me feel like I made a bad decision in college and why did i get an art degree, instead of a whatever-​they-​got-​because they-made-the-right-decision-and-aren’t-below-the-poverty-line-degree and I’m only judging them to make myself feel better, because I’m sure they’re nice people on the inside, and that’s what counts, at least that’s what my mom said, even though she didn’t mean it» bar.

Beer
Booze
Patio
Party
Throw in some excellent food truck nosh, you have all you need.
Parking sucks but why are you driving? Small indoor area with TV and AC but the real party’s outside. Misting fans help cut the heat of the night and the cold beer flows. Some micro but you’ll probably down a cool one in the can.
Clean, simple and easy. You’ll want to relax when friends here. Oh, and eating an Italian sandwich from the food truck (Lucky’s Puccia), you will love it and your body will thank you come sunrise. Oh, live music too.
What more can I say? Get your ass to The Tiniest Bar in Texas.
