![5]( "Recensione")
Well, I was in the mood for poutine so on today’s walk I didn’t know where I would end up. I saw School House Pub might have some so I ventured inside. Don’t worry, it’s coming back next week!
I was might by the chillest bartender Mauricio & he even gave me a slight “don’t worry, it looks like you’re flustered” talk as I approached the bar. He told me the fish and chips as well as the Crawford Bock were on happy hour. Of course I had to have both. I was also in the mood for cauliflower wings and I hit it big here!
The food was incredible despite the French fries being overdone. The vegan ranch was delicious and the tartar sauce was unique but not in left-field.
The conversation I had with Mauricio was great—it was nice to exchange similar opinions on how East Austin’s restaurant scene has changed. He poured me some of his favorite mezcal over ice and it was delicious.
The atmosphere was great and super laid back. It was cool to see some Día de los Muertos decor and people from Britain in the bar. I can’t wait to go back!
Cutest little themed bar with food! School House Pub boasts themed cocktails such as the “Trapper Keeper” a mescal based drink, the “Burn Book” a vodka based drink, the “Pen15 Club” a rum
Based drink, etc. Along with a solid beer and wine selection - this is a great place to grab a drink in East Austin. You hungry? School House Pub has you covered with fresh pasta, a burger to die for, fish n chips, an Italian Grilled Cheese with prosciutto and the works. This is a cute super casual and fun themed bar with a relaxed vibe. Great for neighborhood visits or those from the outter areas looking for a fun East Austin experience. Go check them out!
I used to frequent School House Pub often, I lived away and moved back and I am glad to see that they’re still providing the same type service and quality cocktails/food. Bartenders are new but obviously experienced and friendly. I have been back twice already and will make this a common spot to visit. Will gladly continue to support. Music can be loud at times but I don’t mind it at all.
Nice local bar with friendly staff. We started with the ginger wings and they were crispy, tasty and served hot. Then we got the Montreal fries, aka poutine. Very disappointing... the fries, sauce and meat on top were barely warm. The cheese was one big disc on top. The fries need to be a thicker cut for that plate. Then we got the Mac and cheese... although over-salted, it was really good. Kudos to Hanna and Jacob working their butts off behind the bar.
Came here for a quick stop to eat. Had the fish and chips and a beer and they were both great. The atmosphere inside is cozy, but their outside patios have plenty of seating and misters to keep you cool. The bartenders were great. This was a solid choice. I'll definitely return.
The atmosphere is cute with their all in school theme. Some healthy options on the menu but get the feeling the chef is experimenting a lot of the time since some items are a hit while others are a miss. They should stick to four seasons of favorites. Disappointed in the Sunday happy hour as it feels they choose items to get rid of instead of items that would draw someone in. The choices on this particular day were a sour for the beer special and a rose for the wine special. See what I mean?
I've been going to school house pub off and on when in the area, but recently have been going more because it's just a great atmosphere. Also their a/c is legit on these stupid hot days. Bar staff is also amazing with suggestions and drinks. And if you're hungry for a snack the popcorn is legit and my friends and I have to order it every time we're there.
Excellent place for gathering, great food, beers and fantastic service!
Great people and atmosphere, and I was happy we could order food. But I was disappointed in the fish and chips. Couldn't finish the tasteless fish in a mushy batter. The chips were pretty good,
Decent little spot with indoor and outdoor seating. The beers were cold and the local drafts were good.
Great little appetizer for the table (definitely try the popcorn) and staff were pretty friendly.
