Broken Spoke

3201 S. Lamar South Lamar and Barton Springs

512/442-6189

Dance Club, Live Music, Southern/Down-Home, Full Bar

“Last of the True Texas Dancehalls and damn sure proud of it!” Thus declares Broken Spoke owner and dance floor greeter James M. White, who opened up the honky-tonk in 1964. Home to both the upper rungs of country music history (Bob Wills, Ernest Tubb, George Strait, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson) and its local equivalent (Don Walser, Dale Watson, Kelly Willis, the Derailers), there’s no denying the structure stubbornly resisting the sky-high overdevelopment surrounding it on South Lamar. Serving chicken-fried steak, cold beer, and hardcore country almost every night, the Spoke’s swing and two-step lessons happen Wednesday through Saturday, 8:30-9:30pm.

The Brown Bar

201 W. Eighth Downtown

512/480-8330

Bars, Live Music, 21 & Up, Full Bar

Tucked downstairs from the Brown Building lofts, behind smoky glass on the corner of Eighth and Lavaca Streets the Brown Bar has become the lounge of choice for Austin's beautiful people. Maybe its the lighting, which has that Forties feel of glamour. Or it could just be that the bartenders know how to make a mean drink -- including the best Mojito in town.

Bars, Live Music

C-Boy’s is the swankiest club in SoCo. Continental Club owner Steve Wertheimer dedicated the venue to C-Boy Parks, who used to run the now-defunct Rome Inn. Opened New Year’s Eve 2013, today it hosts Dale Watson’s Chicken Shit Bingo on the back patio Sundays. The upstairs bar recedes from raucous downstairs goings on in a room modeled after its sister venue just down the street.

Bars, Live Music, 21 & Up, Cover: Always, Beer/Wine

Sixth Street and Red River haunts get all the press, but let’s face it: Austin’s really about the dive bars. None boast more casual revelry than the Carousel Lounge. Come in, order a beer or a setup for your brown bag, and enjoy a rotating roster of local acts, most of them gratis. No lace, no steampunk themes, and no more than 100 seats to fill, its elephant decor matches the forget-me-not standards on the jukebox. Not the place for kiddos, unless you plan on leaving them in the car. Cash only.
