Guidebook for Austin
Food Scene
Great place to go for Happy Hour. Especially Wed-Sunday when they have live music right outside the restaurant. This is my favorite place to go for Happy Hour for some Al Pastor tacos and a Tito Rita (That's Austin's own Tito's vodka with key lime juice). It used to be a feed store back in the day and still holds some of the old artifacts. Great atmosphere, food, drinks and people!

Drinks & Nightlife
C-Boys Heart and Soul

Brewery located right around the corner from my home. They brew a selection of beers such as Austin Amber, Stash IPA or Convict Hill Stout to name a few. There's a low-key bar set inside the open warehouse where you can sometimes catch a Geeks Who Drink Pub Quiz or meet some friendly Austinites!
