So freakin close. With a rooftop deck, plenty of patio seating and a rustic interior, this tavern on Cesar Chavez is a comfortable spot for meaty fare, local beer and barrel-aged and draft cocktails. The former pitmaster from Lambert's turns out barbecue brisket, ribs, pulled pork and smoked poultry by the pound alongside comfort classics like Frito pie, tater tots, cobbler and banana pudding. Not much for vegetarians.

Drinks & Nightlife
Old Austin with the coolest bathroom. Hahaha yes, look it up. To visit Donn’s Depot is like entering a time warp: the decor hasn’t changed in decades, the bathrooms are actual train cars, the dance floor is packed with regulars who fall into the over-60 category and, on weekends, Donn himself sits at the piano and takes requests. This is the place to take out-of-towners and the ambiance is especially cozy around the holidays, when colorful string lights dominate the space.
