Places in Austin You Might Like I created this list for my friend, Brian, a post punk-rock activist hippie-anti-hippie type who wants to visit cool places that are unlikely to have choads and asshats in them. There are many other unique Austin hotspots, but I compiled this modest list with Brian's particular tastes in mind. Carousel Lounge (1110 E 52nd St; beer and wine only, but they do setups. I wish someone had told me that before *I* went!) Mugshots (407 E 7th St; great drinks and jukebox) Casino El Camino (517 E 6th St; most places around here are okay, walk west for gratuitous douschebaggery, walk east for crime and poverty) Buffalo Billiards (201 E 6th St; this, however, is an exception... pool, miss pacman, and good queso) Hickory Street Bar and Grill (800 Congress Ave; truckstop chili and live music) Elephant Room (315 Congress Ave; downstairs, live jazz) Dog and Duck (406 W 17th St) Caucus Club (912 Red River St; this one is toward the end. I like almost any bar on RR though) Cedar Street (208 W 4th St) If you go to the Continental Club on South Congress, go a little further down and eat at Magnolia Cafe afterward. They're open all night. Okay, it's like half a mile away from CC but you can handle it. :-) Also, the best Tex-Mex ever is at Chuy's (1728 Barton Springs Rd) and the best barbecue ever is at Rudy's (11570 Research Blvd, Austin, 78759; my neck of the woods), but they're considerably out of your way, so only go if you really want either of those things. Do you know a topical spot that isn't on here? Tell me about it!
