Great place. Pints for only $3-5, good bar grub (I enjoyed the beer brat), free wifi, cool jukebox, staff is very friendly. If you are looking for an inexpensive place to hang out with friends you need to hit this place.
What a great place,my son lives in Austin and he brought us in,his Uncle and I. Great variety of beers on tap,great atmosphere,didn't get a chance to try the food but my son had your wings and they smelt delicious. I'll be back again for sure next time I'm back in town.
Workhorse serves up a nice burger. We call it a THIC buddie. So juicy and you get all the flame flavor. I wish the bacon had more to offer but it came out amazing now the less and ready to be dressed with lettuce, tomatoes, onion, and pickles.
This is the neighborhood bar I wish my neighborhood had. Better beer selection than most bars. They had 2 Pinthouse IPAs: Jellyfish and Seasonal—that alone was great. This place has some caveats in terms of limited parking (get some exercise walking from nearby street parking), and its neighborhood bar vibe. This is to say, the whole bar, food and drinks, is excellent, but you go to a neighborhood bar to mingle. And they don’t disappoint. As long as you’re open-minded and relatively decent at small talk, the locals essentially welcomed me to their bar, and were more inviting than many of my neighbors. It is a bit cramped, so get their early. The bartenders were easy-going, talkative, and happy to recommend drinks or food, or talk about the latest movie. I’ll be back with the wife.
My improv group and I come here every Thursday after class. We love the food and cheap drinks and usually stay until close. Parking is kind of annoying, so is finding a seat (our group is usually 6-8 people so that makes sense), but that’s just a testament to the popularity of this place and the neighborhood. We once tried a different spot after class in search of more space, but it just didn’t feel right, so we came back to our tried and true Workhorse.
Loved this hidden gem! It seemed like a neighborhood hangout. It was an interesting crowd, drinks were good and affordable and the food was fresh and delicious. We are going back with more friends.
No frills, small bar and grill on north loop. Amazingly good and cheap drinks, always a great movie playing above the bar and sports on the other TVs, amazing food as well. Back patio, front patio, and a lot of seating, not a quiet place but very relaxed.

Drinking at the tigress but want to get some food and cheaper drinks? Walk next door to the Workhorse! The drinks are reasonably priced and the food is good, so why aren’t ya here yet if ya want good food and reasonable drinks.
The food was delicious, I personally had the grilled chicken and my date had the workhorse veggie. The grilled chicken was great, they didn’t skimp on the avocado and it was a good size to sober you up after drinking all day. , the jalapeño cream corn was AMAZING, perfectly mixed with a hint of spice that even those that can’t handle spice could enjoy. My date seemed to really enjoy her meal and I snagged a few sweet potato fries and they’re as good as any, nothing special but meet your expectations for fries.
The drinks were solid as well, not as good as tigress obviously but still solid. The racehorse shots were sweet and bitter, the NoLo Paloma was AMAZING, I got the lazy pony and had to admit the NoLo was better, probably the best drink I tried at workhorse. The drinks are surprisingly good for the price!
Overall if ya want to drink, a veggie friendly bar food option or just want good food in general this spot is perfect. If you’re in the neighborhood I highly recommend ya check this spot out!
Went for lunch and got the BLT it was super delicious the bacon was so crisp and crunchy with the perfect ratio of lettuce and tomato to bread but the star of my lunch was the fries perfectly fried soft on inside crispy on the outside. Can’t wait to go back and try the rest of the menu.
a neighborhood staple! great food, great service, cheap drinks.
pro tip: when you can’t decide between parmasean or sweet potatoes fries get a half and half basket of of both
Burgers are great and vibes are great, but most of all, the drinks are cheaaaaaaap. I always leave here in an Uber full of food and beer. Almost don’t want to even leave a review to keep this place a secret, but I can’t do that to the management because they clearly know what they’re doing!
Good food at a decent price. Rustic chic vibe. Good cocktails and a huge beer selection. I sat at the bar and had the grilled chicken sandwich with avocado and goat cheese with a side of Parmesan fries. Had an old fashioned. Really delicious quality food.
