Shangri-La

“Shangri-La is a fun, laid-back bar that’s easy to like. The vibe is casual, drinks come out quick, and the prices are pretty reasonable for what you get. It can get loud and packed later in the night, but earlier it’s a nice spot to hang out and talk. Staff were cool and kept things moving. Good place to start the night or just grab a couple drinks with friends.”

Didn’t even know it existed while I was there, so now I definitely want to go back and check it out. If you’re into laid-back...”

“Fun bar to hang out in with a nice outside area out back with a food truck. Two pool tables a Photo Booth with friendly professional staff. Spend some time here on the east side of Austin.”

Seriously come here if you are in need of a safe space with strong drinks, great-priced food, and want the feel of being around locals. A mix of people here but everyone is always friendly and happy to see you. Huge indoor bar with...”

“One of my favorite bars in Austin. This place serves up hipster vibes with a great patio out in the backyard. Come here on a Thursday if you like to shoot some pool. Free pool Thursdays? Can’t beat it. They also have a golden tee like game along with a Photo Booth if you’re looking to get silly. Prices are fairly decent as well.”
