The staff is always super friendly and welcoming to me, the drinks are on point, the show calendar is endlessly well curated and the patio/ outside stage is amazing.
By far one of my favorite venues in Austin.
One of my fav bars in Austin! So much variety in music / talent there, and such a welcoming atmosphere. I've had some of the best times out in Austin at this bar, and I recommend it without reservation.
One of my favorite bars in atx. The staff has always been so kind and helpful. The live music is the best. The beer is very cold :)
The owners and staff are amazing!! This is my go to for mocktales , events and hangouts with friends. They also have two delicious food trailers outside. If you haven’t tried their specialty drinks I would suggest to try them all!!! You can also have them made without alcohol!!! Love Love Love CUC!!!
CUC is a welcoming and safe place for everyone in Austin. It’s dedication to the queer community and openness to all make it truly an Austin original. Their live music is curated carefully and kambucha on tap makes for a great night for those of us who don’t drink but still want to enjoy a show and fellowship! I’d venture to say this is one of the best bars in Austin!
this is absolutely my favorite bar in Austin. We've run our storytelling show there for several years and it's always gone well, been tons of fun, and the crowds are super supportive. It's just the best.
I've been coming to CheerUps for years and years, when they first opened and started making cocktails with Wunderpilz Kombucha and selling vegan chocolates! This place is like a second home for most of my friend goup. Cheer Ups has always been a welcoming and inclusive environment. Hosting Greetings from Queer Mountain, supporting queer lives and expierences, and allowing for a safe place to tell their truths. I couldn't be more greatful for such a place. So much love here.
The owners & staff of this venue are amazing, hard-working & genuine. Cheer Up Charlies is one of the better venues in town to enjoy an eclectic variety of entertainment. This establishment has hosted my past music projects and they always treat musicians fair and with respect. Play here/ hang here and you are guaranteed to have an awesome time!
The folks at Cheer-Up Charlie's always book exciting musical lineups, offer friendly, attentive staff to serve patrons and welcomes people of all backgrounds to their venue. You'd be hard-pressed to find another bar and music venue that is more community-minded than CUC.
Great music line-up. Guy at the door wasn't very helpful, but the bar staff and everyone else was super friendly.
This has been my favorite bar in town since day 1 on the east side. I have had nothing but great times there, and the staff is always friendly and helpful. Every time my band played there we were treated so kindly and so well by everyone. Good people here doing good things for the community. They do a great job.
Cheer up Charlie's is one of my favorite venues in town. The staff are all super friendly, and it's an inviting and welcoming place. The sound is great, and I love going there for shows
A place where people come together, a place of love,support and music, home of golden tickets and good times.
Great food, awesome staff, great night life! A must visit when in Austin!!
My favorite bar in Austin. Best atmosphere, best cocktails, and definitely the most interesting WOmen in the world
I shot a show here featuring Dodo and Grandmaster Orchestra. The stage is really unique and features a cool custom neon sign and some colored LED poles against a stone wall (the venue is on the side of a steep hill). Great atmosphere and the sound quality was excellent, too.
Super fun and upbeat place with awesome music! The DJs were great both nights we were there while visiting Austin. Everyone was super friendly and the vibe was fun. One night they had an artist on the stage painting while the music played. Super fun and cute place! They also have a great food truck right outside with amazing vegan burgers and hotdogs. A super fun place to hang out in Austin.
Great drinks & specials. Love the space and decor. Lots of nice seating. Amazing food truck that serves vegan comfort food. Located not far from 35 so pretty easy to get there. Over all a true Austin gem!
Nice place. I absolutely love the neon lights they have! I was by myself but I still had a decent time there. If I had a girlfriend I'd definitely want to take her here to relax and hangout while drinking a few drinks.

New favorite bar ever!! I am for Minneapolis and we don’t have a bar like this at all!!! Great drinks, people and variety of areas. Number one place for me to check out when I am back.
This place is amazing!!
I met the cutie Jschlatt here 😍
He was pretty soft i don't know why he has such a different internet persona lol
drinks bit too expensive for me
maybe because I'm used to the price of water lol
Sweet place, glad to have met that cutie Jschlatt 🥴
he was so cuddly ❤️
I was in Austin for less than 24 hours but made it a point to stop by for a show and to check out the murals done by one of my favorite artists. In addition to a charming & delicious drink menu, they also have a cute patio. I loved being able to enjoy music in a very cool, LGBTQ friendly space. It was a total gem! Definitely recommend.
This is the gay bar to visit when visiting Austin! Really big venue. Fun guys, dancing and good drinks. Will be back! The music is a bit too loud sometimes. Would be nice to have some tech house with RNB/pop.

Lucas was the best part of the night! He made wonderful drinks when I told him to surprise me. 10/10 coming back just for him.
Really awesome place to hang out, with live music and a courtyard. Good selection of drinks, great crowd, and really cool poppy design.
My favorite gay bar in Austin! The atmosphere is absolutely unbeatable and the drag performances are better than anything you’ve ever experienced. Recommend for anyone wanting to meet someone new, get drinks with friends, or just watch a band perform!
What to say about Cheer Ups?! THAT ITS EPIC?! You won’t regret coming here any day any time it’s open.
They’ll either have live music, food trucks, drag show watch party, dance music. The vibes are always on point here and everybody is welcome.
Just one of the best spots in all of Texas really
First time coming here, and I am enjoying myself! Loved the drag show 🌈🌈🌈🌈
Awesome bar, cheap drinks, good music, food truck and lots of people. Love it
Pumping sound and vibrant atmosphere in the heat of Austin. Excellent mix of performance, drag and a variety of dance sounds. Check out weekends and nite a school monthly. Queer and LGBT + space!!!!
I had a great time there last night. The acoustics in the outdoor stage area were great. The drinks were delicious and reasonably priced. The staff was professional and service was fast, even with it packed. Absolutely would recommend.
