Common Space

Place closed down. Health department.

This place is okay. The fishbowl drinks are good and the hookah (even though they get their hookah from the Hookah spot next door) is good as well. It is usually pretty empty there. The food is okay. The service can be better, in my opinion. There are times that the waitress won't come back for a while.

Austin Street does not really have much of a bar scene in my opinion. This place is probably the best out of all of them.

I like common space because of the crowd and music, but as far as the 'space' part goes (half of the lounges name) its lacks much of and is limited too. I was let down when I didn't see anyone or any room for a dance scene. I was under the impression that there would be dancing, but maybe that's my fault. Like the music, the crowd was mostly Spanish with a few other scattered ethnicities as well. Picture your typical bar scene with a latin flavor:  everyone is just kind of chatting, drinking, some people eating; this is Common Space. I think they have an outdoor area in the back but i never got a chance to check that out.

If your looking for a spicy hangout spot that's a little more upbeat than the typical bar hangout, checkout this place!
