Our Bartender Michelle was AMAZING!!! She was extremely kind and down to earth. My first time here and loved the dark old bar scene atmosphere with slots, pool tables, shuffle board and a live music stage! Will definitely be back!!! My new favorite bar in New Braunfels

DONT MISS TO VISIT THIS PLACE. We came from Spain and I must say that it was excellent, not only because of the atmosphere and the staff, the band, the dances, the people who were very kind to us. Without a doubt, it is an experience that you cannot miss. I would repeat the experience of the night a thousand times. Congratulations to the band that in all their songs people did not stop dancing. It is a place where you are sure to have fun. Congratulations.

Visited this place on a Saturday night, and it was crowded. The band sounded good and would have loved to stay longer, but there was just no place to sit. Suggest that you get there early and secure yourself a seat.

Most eclectic sports bar in town. If you get bored looking at the surroundings in this place, you have absolutely zero personality. Dejan Que food truck outside has the best brisket in town. Parking: Get there early if you are coming to see one of their evening live bands. Parking lots fill up very fast, but that could be to the high caliber of bands they choose to allow to perform in their venue.

An absolute must stop on your pub crawl, live music venue, or two-steppin shuffle Locals unite! Live music on weekends. Lots of mature cowboy couples but plenty of younger folks too. Not a college student in sight...at least pre-semester. Much bigger on the inside than it looks on the outside. Great stuff hanging from the ceiling and the walls. Big dancefloor and two bars.

My husband & I wanted to have a date night, and after dinner we decided to try out this joint. We are from a small town, and just like to kick back. This place was right up our alley being the country folk we are. Everyone seemed friendly, and the servers never let my beer supply run low. The band they had was awesome ! The dancing scene great. We will be back again .

Got there 1 1/2 hour early to get a good seat to watch a friend play. Waste of time because people stood in front of us all night. The sound guy has a booth but insists on standing in front of us as well. So, tall and fat people block the view. It took 15 min to get the bartender to come over to me to close out while serving 5 people who got to the bar after me. I almost just left. It would be hard to get me to go back.

My wife and I enjoy country western dancing on Sunday afternoons (we are not night owls). We checked this place out on their website and decided to try it recently. The folks are very friendly and the dance floor is large. There was plenty of seating. We were overall impressed and plan to return. The crowd is older folks which also fits in with our age group.
