Evangeline Cafe has a great menu of Cajun classics - from gator bites and gumbo, to jambalaya - and live music on most nights.

The Little Darlin’ in South Austin is a great place to unwind or spend a chill Sunday afternoon on the picnic tables.

These two East Side dive bars always have live music, and share one enormous backyard filled with picnic tables and cheap drinks.

Part music venue, part beer garden, and part dive bar, Stay Gold is basically Austin in a nutshell.
