Sam's Town Point

Pretty cool. Saturday night was super crowded. Bar didn't have mixes for basic drinks. Nobody was complaining but it was a $20 cover. Bartenders were way overworked. You'd think there would be a second bar outside with such a big outside area. Prefer not to wait 30 minutes at the bar. Update: I accept that explanation. Marking my calendar!

Sam’s Town Point is one of the last true dive bars in Austin, Texas. Yes ladies and gentlemen, this is NOT your standard imitation, pretend we are in old Austin pretentious type dive bar… this is the OG South Austin dive! Any given night, you can find great music and very interesting characters at this neighborhood bar. They have a well used dance floor and pool table. Plenty of seats and a great outdoor patio area. This place never disappoints, you will always have a good time at Sam’s. Stop by for a few minutes or several hour and have yourself the true, old-school, South Austin experience.

Had a great time here and would definitely recommend it to anyone. I have a large preference to live music and outdoor settings, so I’m biased, but if that’s your jam too then you’re gonna enjoy your drink a little more here. It’s a hidden enough gem that I almost don’t want to promote it TOO much but just be careful who you bring 🤷🏻‍♂️- boisterousness doesn’t lend itself to the environment. Can’t wait to head back for a relaxing cold one. Enjoy!
