A hidden gem in downtown Dripping Springs! Beer lovers should visit every time they find themselves in the area. The selection is great always. Including some rare finds from time to time. Texas proud in their varieties. Environment is super friendly and laid back. Live music on the back porch. Embodies so many things of what makes the hill country a great place to be. Will be back each time we are in town!
Review Source:My wife and I went here for the first time last weekend on Saturday night.
It was a very nice little, old fashioned bar. About 6-7 bar stools and lots of table spaces available. There's a very nice outdoor section. Couple of TVs also.
It was a nice surprise to see it's dog friendly. There was 2 dogs in there, both very well behaved.
Saturday night was movie night, so they were showing a movie (Fifth Element) outside on the screen. Someone else was making popcorn in an old fashion popcorn popper and handing it out to people.
Lots of beers (many local) to pick from. I was surprised to not find Shiner available however. We ended up drinking something else that was really good though.
We will for sure go back. It was a nice little place and we had a good time relaxing there.
We stopped by this funky little place for a quick beer on a late Sunday afternoon after hiking at Pedernales Falls. Â I had just heard about this place about a month ago and had wanted an excuse to stop in. Dive'y is a most appropriate description. While the rock front is an old gas station/barber shop the majority of the building is corrugated metal. The back of the building was open to a courtyard with a stage and washer pits :). Â This place is not that big, the bar sat about 6. They had a good size TV perched pretty high up on the wall, so we got to watch a little football while we were there. Â It looked like the HVAC was portable heaters and fans (????).
Most important, I was here for the beer. Â Super beer selection, taps were almost strictly the local brewing scene (512), Thirsty Planet, Real Ale etc. They only had one of their brews, but it was my favorite style for this time of year in Texas. Their Pandemic Porter was a nice clean drinkable Porter, well balanced-it reminded me of my old favorite-Bell's. I liked it well enough to have two and turn the keys over to my wonderful DD hubby. The owner could not tell me if there was a beer brewing schedule, so next time it might be something different...I'm game.
They don't offer food, but they have menus from a few of the pizza joints and several will deliver to the bar. Â The bartender said you could bring outside food in too.
There website is kinda blah, maybe they could investigate Go Daddy or something. They have a FB page and are good about announcing specials. FYI-the last Saturday in January (2012) is their 1st Anniversary party with live music. Super fun to visit and drink.
The Barbershop is a funky little place in Dripping Springs that makes you feel like you're in a real place instead of some generic bar. There's a totally decent selection of beer and wine, and the vibe is low-key, small-townish, but not redneck. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and there's a nice patio area with live music, and a washers pit. It's the kind of bar where people bring their kids and their dogs, and where complete strangers strike up pleasant conversations with you.
I spend several hours here last Saturday, and didn't want to leave!
The Barber Shop brewpub officially opened Saturday, but the place has actually been around since 1924. Located in Drippin's historic downtown, it was originally a gas station back in the day and then became a barber shop. It was basically abandoned for the past couple of decades, but now it's all spruced up and ready for business. There are 12 brews on tap, including local favorite Jester King's Commercial Suicide and Wytchmaker IPA. There are also offerings from Real Ale in Blanco: Fireman's 4, Full Moon and the Coffee Porter.
The front features the original stone facade from the '30s and they kept the old barber shop sign. There's a front room for dart-throwing, then the back room has a cool wormwood bar that's been filled in with resin, as well as wooden tables and chairs. It's got a rustic-contemporary-antique vibe going on all at once. A cool addition to the downtown scene!
