After The Iron Bear’s move last year, walking into the new Downtown den of Austin’s only bear bar still feels like one big bear hug. Thanks to an on-site kitchen, you can now have your big daddy and eat 'em, too – check out their burgers if you don’t bear-lieve us – plus other tasty bites. All that meat leaving you a l’il thirsty? Sip on the bar’s signature bear punch. The Iron Bear’s always open to everyone, but their long history of supporting the LGBTQIA (and leather!) community makes us extra thankful that these bears, co-owners Roger Rozell and Bengie Beshear, call Austin their home.
