Great place for country music fans. Good music, more or less clean restrooms and a good vibe. Nice people, very friendly. Outside is a Texmex food truck.

We went last weekend to dance and listen to some live music. This place was a lot of fun. Beer is fairly cheap. No air conditioning, but they had a few fans. It was okay, even on a hot night. The music was great. Dancing was fun!! We'd go back for sure.

We came on a Tuesday night and were served by a guy that worked two jobs and he was genuinely amazing. However came back on our last night (Monday 10th June), and waited 20mins for any service whatsoever, they gave us the wrong drinks to which at this point I had to shout someone over because they’d ignored us the whole time- told them I wasn’t happy with the service, he said he didn’t know who was serving our section- the woman behind the bar kept staring and smirking and making us feel uncomfortable. It’s such a shame because we had such a fantastic time the first time. Goes to show the people you employ really make a difference.

I love this bar. Especially the dancing classes. Beth coffee is an Austin establishment and she makes learning the Texas two step so easy and fun. The environment is so welcoming. I’ve taken multiple friends to the classes and they both thought it was the highlight of the trip. It’s really easy to start the night here for a class and then party the rest of the night away!

Our group's evening was ruined by a tall, skinny bearded busboy/barback who apparently was doing double duty as security. We were outside of the front doors leaving, looking through the wooden fence at some friends taking pictures. He proceeded to tell us to get away from the fence and said he was going to call the police. He continued to bow up, trying to intimidate us. The security guy checking ID's watching the whole thing, didn't move, wouldn't help. As we walked toward the street, busboy/wanna be security kept walking behind us, I guess, to ensure that we were complying with his request. In any event, an awful customer experience. We can take our business elsewhere and hope others do the same.

Fun little honky tonk bar with live music and dancing. It gets pretty crowded but it’s a great time and definitely worth it. Bartenders are friendly and service is quick. Great vibes and a must-do activity if you’re visiting Austin.

This is one of the spots where the true Austin dancers go during the week (Tuesdays being a common night)—I’ve come here for years! The style is a fusion, non-traveling two-step with a twist of blues and swing. Dance to live music (or watch!) and make sure not to stand on the the floor or bring a drink out there while dancing (huge faux pax!). Let one of the regulars show you the basics and tip the band! (Also: whiskey on tap, food truck out back, and bring cash for cover)

Everyone Rocks here! We got Gary the Gatekeeper, Mikey and Luke slinging drinks with excellent service and speed, Evan keeping the place spotless, the sound guys, the excellent nightly bands to include my personal favorite -Armadillo Road and the best little taco truck in the back. I love this place and every interaction I've ever had there in the past 4 years of visiting (I drive an hour to specifically come here). People from all over the world come together in this little iconic honky tonk to dance, play pool & drink together. I honestly can't think of a better place to spend my time and money- the connection amongst people & atmosphere is quite magical 😉 Make sure to try at least one dance before you go- the regulars are wonderful at teaching the two-step, even if you think you have two left feet 😂 I highly recommend checking out this bar, promise you won't regret it!

The worst experience here. $10 cover for what?! Tried playing pool while Listening to music, was told by the bartender that I could just go play at the pool table Outside, even though the one inside had just finished and the players were leaving. Later.. Standing next to Someone selling jewelry inside waiting for my friend ordering a drink. Vendor told me to either buy something or stand somewhere else. Not sure if she thought I was trying to pull something on her, Fine whatever. Later that night I ordered an Uber and stood next to the jewelry vendor as that was the meeting spot for our friends. Vendor rudely and forcefully shoves me away and says "I told you to move!" "Listen I haven't done anything, I'm just standing here minding my own business there's no need to shove me" Vendor told the bouncer to kick me out over being difficult. Security promptly kicked me out quoting "listen she's here 5 days a week, so if she wants someone out, that persons getting kicked out" Had I been drinking? 1, with the 2nd taken by the bouncer. Did I dress suspect? Had a blazer and dress shoes on. I have my suspicions on the true reason of being asked to leave but I’ll keep that off here Waited outside in the rain for the Uber I do not recommend this spot

One of the most authentic saloon honky tank bars you can visit any day of the week. I highly recommend checking this place out. The cover is very small at five dollars for some live bands playing great music churning out Texas country rock music until 2 AM.

I probably should have caught the vibe and just left before even visiting this bar. Bouncer was a rude control freak, he yelled at my girlfriend for looking thru the fence to see if our friends were there before we even walked in. The bar back was super rude to my brother and a handful of other patrons. I didn't have a single positive encounter with any of the bar staff. There won't be a return trip to this bar ever again from me. Broken Spoke is a much better use of your time, skip this one, they don't need your money, and they'll let you know that fact every step of the way.

Male AGGRESSION from server & manager was surreal. It was Halloween weekend when my girlfriend & I dressed up as a cop & drug smuggler. We had disposable walkie-talkie props that I could care less if we lost them. At entry the door man did point out that we can’t bring them in so we said that’s ok and turned them upside down to show that the containers were empty. So his response was it’s ok. We went in no big deal. After paying admission & getting second round of drinks and filling our props with water to mindfully hydrate we went outside to rest our feet. While chatting alone minding our own business a server comes along quickly to clear the table of empty drinks and without ever speaking to this person before in our lives he begins to grab our props and with anger he demands we throw them away. I understand he has to work quickly but the level of aggression in his demeanor was out of no where. I place the props closer to him and said-take it. My friend was upset at his delivery (so was I) and I didn’t feel necessary to stop her from defending us as she emphasized the drinks in our hand that she bought. So why would he be angry at us for having props on Halloween. The server did not take her response well so demanded we leave. I was shocked at how quickly and terribly he treated us. I told him that I want to speak to a manager because his approach is rude/uncalled for considering we were minding our own business and now he wants to kick us out for defending ourselves over a costume on Halloween night. He tried to delay getting a manger and he almost refused to do so until I asked for the third time. As we sat there waiting suddenly a bald man grabs one of the props and begins to tear it apart aggressively only to find that it’s a coconut water container with water inside. He was yelling as us and saying something to the point that we can’t bring containers inside and that it’s a violation of their rules. True, but I just could not believe what I was seeing and was at a lost for words. My friend, again, was defending us and started yelling at him for his destructive behavior over costumes. I asked him three times to allow me to explain our situation and he would yell over me “GTFO” more than once. He toned it down a bit when I turned on the camera. As we started to exit he got more enraged when he said-dont go that way-which was towards the dance floor and how we came in. He could have escorted us but instead kept yelling with spit and said get out of my bar! I recorded this separately. My friend was pulled by her arm to get redirected as I lost her while exiting and waited a while to see her exit. She definitely had a reason to defend herself and is always a nice and caring person there was a reason to be upset and for that reason I am writing this review. I tried to reach out to white horse with this video and brief explanation but have back. I don’t even care about the props it’s just the level of aggressive men who don’t have customer service skills and should not be in a bar where people are minding their own business to have a good time while paying for it. I know the service industry is struggling these days and that is why I hesitated to post this review and give them an opportunity to handle this situation with out a post. I also understand that props like open containers are not allowed but that is also why we proved they were empty and we also bought drinks. Also it was a halloween weekend where I wanted to show my girlfriend a good time as a welcome to Austin girls night out. However these two men completely dumbed on it. I had wanted to enjoy White Horse for what it is as a staple but this kind of treatment is uncalled for. See videos…

My family really wanted country music in Austin numerous people told us snot this place but the night we were there was a huge let down. The band was talented but played really really old music a group of 13 country fans food not know one song. It is definitely a hole in the wall. The bartender was super nice! The dancing was fun too watch. The bathrooms were absolutely disgusting! We stuck in there for 45 minutes. There are 3 bands we were only there for the first one, maybe it got better.

In the heart of east 6th Street, among a variety of different dive bars, food trucks, and construction, there lay a magical place called The White Horse. Among a city bustling and expanding with foreigners from around the world, The White Horse is a secret most popular with locals. Past the door with no cover until half past 7 you'll find a pool table, a bar, and a variety of faces circling about to the good'ole Texan 2-step. The music is always live, and the drinks always flow. Hidden in the back theres a Miss-tuned piano for anyone to start tickling the ivory and an open air breeze to evaporate the sweat from the orbiting dance.

Many southern gentlemen who ask politely and just want to dance nothing more which is so refreshing!

BRILLIANT! We visited once maybe about 20 years ago and were very disappointed, but perhaps because that was because the place was being renovated which spoilt the atmosphere. We decided the time was right to try it again. We had a lovely lunch, our only criticism was the scallop starter which was just 4 very small shellfish with no roes, for £16.00 very nicely cooked etc, but an astronomical charge for such a small dish. I had garlic prawns, far better value for £9. £32 for a main of hake and £28 for lamb two ways. A following pannacotta was superb. Lovely meal at a lovely venue. We're going to stay there come the late nights to see how it turns out as an hotel.

Very busy, very efficient, very varied a menu. I happened upon this eatery by chance and very welcome it was too - the food is well cooked and presented and from a big menu. I especially enjoyed the mushrooms, which were chunky-cut. You can barely find a large and comprehensive breakfast for under a tenner these days, but this place [just about] sells one
