Review The Chugging Monkey - Austin

Saurabh Bhatt
Awesome place on east 6th street Or dirty 6th street. Cocktails are good and fairly priced. Place is usually crowded and full of energy. Bands play good music. Somewhat empty on weekdays but totally crowded on the weekend. We had a blast at this place and always ended back at this place.

Pretty cool place and very entertaining with the band playing. Sat at the bar near the band, and enjoyed some local beers while listening to the band. Band was playing some old school rock and roll and did welcome some of our requests. Price was good and so was the service. It was a nice ambiance and would definitely recommend.

Great live music, good prices on alcohol good staff, one of the things that draws you this place besides the music is the guy at the door. He is so fun to watch, live of the party and very comic too. The is an upstairs and a patio to smoke and chill at ease. Bathrooms downstairs are better than the ones upstairs. Overall one of my top bars to visit when partying in 6th Street.

Great place to hang out and listen to live music! Generally its a chill spot where you can hang out with friends. They have bands many days of the week as well as live acoustic shows. There is a cool upstairs area where people can hang out as well. They have very loud DJs on the weekends as well.
Travis Morgan
In my opinion you can always count on this place for great music. This is my favorite spot in dirty 6th. Nothing special about their drinks and the band plays the same songs each night but hey they play them really really well so I'm not complaining. There's usually an open spot to sit and if you get tired of the crowd they have a nice back patio up stairs.

Have a great time with low cost drinks and live music. The band plays right next to the front window which allows you to enjoy the music without having to go inside. The second floor spans the length of the bar and also vies the stage. There is a covered patio in the back.

Ducked into this place to escape the heat. There was a great acoustic musician playing and an awesome bartender. Late at night it got significantly less classy but what did you expect from something called Chugging monkey. The upstairs area was great to get away from the crowds a little bit.
Olga Cisneros
Great staff, good drinks. Am a local that prefers this place to pretentious joints.

This place always has a good DJ. Music is a big plus. Drinks cost the same as any place else downtown, so nothing shocking there. A lot of college kids running around here on the norm and not the biggest dance areas, but like I said, good dj's and music.
Maciej Mencner
Very vibrant place with a live music and a very affordable prices. There's not a lot of place to sit near the band, but you can easily find some place on the upper level. Must go, if you're visiting the 6th Street.
Jennifer Vanhimbergen
Not too crowded and great time with band!
Emily Rivapalacio
Cheap drinks and great music! We even saw a little dog there! Super cute. Definitely recommend if you love live music!

It was alright. Your average 6th Street bar. They have nice outdoor seating and beer pong table already ready to go! Draft beer was $6

Great live music. Cold beer

Chuggin' Monkey is an awesome place to visit day or night. Great entertainment and drink specials at night and nice chill spot u ring the day. If you haven't been to Austin, you should try this bar.

This bar does not represent Austin and there is no place for this bar here in Austin. You need to fire all of your bouncers and get an entire new staff and the owner needs to issue a public apology for what happened. You cannot treat people like this and you should have already had your staff trained on what it means to be in Austin Texas. And Austin Texas we'd love everybody we do not discriminate against transgender people we do not discriminate against gay people we do not discriminate against people of color we do not discriminate Austin is about love and keeping it weird. Sad. Not discriminating is something that is considered weird because in most parts of the country it's simply just accept that but not here in Austin we will not let it stand

I had such a great time at the Chuggin Monkey....Will Southern and friends totally rocked the house! Amazing band and the young door guy...what energy....would highly recommend!!
Dennis James Gonzalez
Meh. Nothing special about this place. Mix drinks aren't that great and bartenders always seem overwhelmed every time I go in there. There are better bars on 6th st to go to.
Daley South
Terrible experience here. Very close minded and bigoted. Terrible service. Austin is no place for bigots! Get your shit together or get out!
Cade Cunningham
Horrible service. Rude staff. If you are gay, trans, bi, or even just different, don't even think about going here. They will definitely make sure you know you are not welcome.
Gracie Texana Long
No tolerance for the trans community here so I have no tolerance for them.
Emma Loftus
Really enjoyed Space Hammer while in town for #LimeLightPalooza2017 Great little bar with good music!!
Amy Dillon
The staff here is super friendly! They have great drink specials and have really good bands that play!
Michelle Sprainis
Awesome time there! Music was great, bartender was knowledgeable about Austin for us Chicagoians! The musician was playing Lumineers songs for us before our Lumineers show!
Diego Cuellar
Haven't return to this place like 6 yrs ago or least
Stacy Trowbridge
Aaron, our bartender was awesome. Great atmosphere, great music = great time.
Angela Burnham
Staff were jerks and ignored us, bouncer was hostile. Took forever to get a drink, and when we did it looked like dirty cups were used, mine had some kind of grease all over it. It was just a really really bad experience, and I won't be going back. Plenty of other bars in the area to go to that have good service and that I don't have to worry about catching something from.
Schlogan Pohlmann
Great bartenders (Tyler is super chill). A great place to kick back and listen to some good music!!
Elvia Velasquez
I had a wonderful time I will be back. Enjoyed the music
Greg Smith
Good band. Very versatile in their choice of music. Seating could be improved.
