Overall I really love Third Base. Â It's a great place to watch sporting events especially during NFL season. Â The atmosphere is exactly what I want in a sports bar and that's why I keep coming back. Â Lots of sports fans and lots of cold beer!
The food can be good but their migas did disappoint me. Â Overall they have a wide range of options and they tend to be more adventurous than most sports bars. Â I would give them 5 stars if the food was more consistent.
The service is always warm and friendly and they have TVs everywhere. Â They have a great bar staff but I'm always extra happy to see Justin or Genevieve when I walk in.
Sit at the bar...always faster service
I came in around 12:45 and sat at the bar (which is usually a better bet) the restaurant was mostly empty. It took a few minutes to be greeted by the bartender, but when he did he was friendly.I tried ordering the chicken wings, all wings no drumsticks and he told me this was not something the did. Well, ok I guess. At other restaurants this have never sounded like the ridiculous request he made me feel like it was. It certainly wasn't too busy for it to be accomodated but I can't fault him for holding to store policy. I ask for a few more minutes and ultimately decide on the hot wings anyway.
After a reasonable amount of time he brings them to me. They are small but hey maybe they are tastier than they look. I bite into one and upon chewing it I have the image of dragging my tongue across desert sand. It is dry and definitely over cooked. I eat all of them because at this point I imagine all the other food would taste similar. I was mostly perplexed because the restaurant was so empty I could not imagine that the kitchen was so swamped that the food was so over cooked. That being said, the establishment was clean and my service was good.
Excellent service but VERY poor management.
I want to clarify my low rating of 1 star. Had it not been for one particular manager, I would give the establishment a solid 4 or 5. I love Third Base on the whole and usually sit at the bar when I'm there. The setting is very causal, and the bartenders are always entertaining and engaging. Especially the feisty female bartenders. The food is actually pretty good, although I think they recently got a new cook and the new salsa recipe could use a little more work. Management however, is another story. Not all managers; just one in particular who thinks it's perfectly acceptable to embarrass and disrespect his staffers in front of customers for who knows whatever reason. This manager's name is Bill.
The first time I saw this happen was several months back. I didn't give it much thought other than the fact that I thought it was a little rude and disrespectful to the employee. But I figured everyone is entitled to a bad day and maybe this was his. Apparently Bill has a lot of bad days as I've been there on several occasions and witnessed him getting onto his staff right in front of customers, almost as if he intends to do that on purpose as some sort of power thing.
I was at the bar again this evening and watched him yell at 2 of the female bartenders, for ridiculous reasons and right in front of customers. It left me feeling sick to my stomach. BTW, now that I think about it I've only noticed him do this to female staffers.
I'm not sure what kind of management training Bill has had, if any, but as a customer I find it extremely unprofessional and inappropriate to yell at, or arrogantly reprimand at your staff in front of customers. Honestly, I'm debating on whether or not I should even return. Which is sad because like I said, the staff is always fun and I do enjoy the atmosphere. Someone higher up really needs to sit down with Bill and introduce him to People Skills 101. If an employee screws up, fine, talk to them when it's appropriate. And talk to them in a professional way. But whatever you do, do NOT do it in front of customers. Because now you've made everyone in witness feel extremely awkward. And I can't imagine that that style of management boosts employee morale.
I know I'm not the only one who's seen this happen, or feels this way. I was just so disgusted tonight that felt compelled to tell people about it in the hopes that others will comment on similar experiences and management will finally realize that this is a serious enough problem to address.
I like this place! However, even though it is understandable, it is very hard to find a seat when you want to watch a game. I think this place could improve if they had a host that seated people instead of just having them fend for themselves. Other than that it was a very good experience. Food is classic pub grub sports bar food that is delish with an ice cold brew. Service wasn't horrible even though our server was in the weeds with all the people rotating in and out of her section because they didn't have a designated seat and would grab any extra chair they could find... regardless, its a good environment for sports and I would go again to watch a game.
Review Source:Do not waste your money on the food here.  I had the Texas Dip and was expecting a good French Dip where they just change the name to be cute.  The beef was not thinly sliced and was tough with gristle.  Next time I had a bowl (instead of a cup)  of the potato soup.  It was a small bowl and  they didn't even have the courtesy to fill it up.  I was looking forward to a hot steaming bowl of soup right?  Well it was luke warm .... lost all the appeal.  Today I went with a Cheese Burger for $10.  I asked the bartender if this was a Jr. Burger because it was the smallest "full size" burger I've ever seen ..tiny.  The beef they used had a strange taste, not terribly bad, but I've never tasted any burger like it and I've eaten tons of burgers with all grades of beef.  DO NOT eat the pickle.  They make it themselves....you will spit it out.  The ice tea was delicious and their homemade chips are really good.  Great bartender.
Review Source:Had some excellent smoked bbq and spicy garlic wings. Â Our server Jessica showed us the ropes as we'd never visited here before, great service and great food. Â Visited with one of the owners named Bill, we left feeling like family...we'll be back...need to take our son when he's in town.
Review Source:The service was horrible. Waiter checked on us one time while we were eating, after we finished eating, we had to wait nearly 20 minutes and I had to get up and find someone to help us pay our bill and get the hell out of there.
The food was only so so... We may have just had a bad waiter, but I do expect better than what we received. Needless to say, the waiter got zilch for a tip.
We were here last night after my husband had already reminded me how terrible the food was the last time we were there. I tried to give the benefit of the doubt but he was right! Â The service from Raven was horrible. After my friend arrived and ordered her drink, it took the waitress another 20 minutes to take the food order. The only reason it was that soon was because we basically had to drag her over. Â The michelada had zero beer in it, only tomato juice. Â We ordered nachos and tortilla soup, both were horrible!!!!! Â The last time my husband and I were there we ordered a sandwich and it was disgusting!!!! Terrible service and even worse food!!!
Review Source:This Third Base location is close to my heart because it's where I went out with my fiancé for the first time....awwww. Ok enough mushy crap, this place is pretty awesome. They have a million TV's and during football season they are playing almost all of the games on the big screens. The hostesses and waiters even have papers with all the TV's and games they will be showing so you can plop your butt down and get ready for football in your face. They have a lot of draft beer which happens to be my favorite and even more in bottles if that's your fancy. Their food is mediocre but it's a bar so I am never surprised by that. This is by far my favorite third base location strictly due to the layout and the TV's. They just seem to be in better locations.
Review Source:I'm upgrading this after returning a few times. With the Dell discount, the prices are good, and I've found a few dishes that I think are actually quite good.
The spinach salad is great - the greens are always fresh, which is impressive for a place that is basically a bar. The sweet potato goat cheese flautas are SO GOOD.
If you're lucky enough to sit outside when there isn't someone smoking, you get to avoid both the stale beer and the cigarette smell.
The new menu makes this place so much freaking better. Â I'd eat the turkey BLT on naan with sweet potato fries and honey garlic aioli every freaking day if I could. Â Seriously, the aioli on the fries. Â Do it. Â Thank me later. Â
And do it at this location. Â The stuff they make on 6th street is different and not as good and if you ask for the stuff at the South Park Meadows location they look at you like you're speaking Mermaid.
I come here very often on weekday afternoons, it's right by my gym. Â The service is always great, regardless of where I sit or who is taking care of me. Â During busy sporting events the place can get uncomfortably packed and if you're heading here for a Texas game or a UFC fight or something you should seriously consider arriving at least an hour early.
Keep that in mind and seriously, try that sandwich and fries. Â I wanna go there right now.
The appetizers were A-Ok, the environment was great. It was a great place to catch the UT game.
I did notice it appeared to be more an older "social gathering" for bar flies who might frequent the place and put on the color jerseys of the team that might just happen to be playing that week. Ha.
I would say an older crowd hangout. Not judging but the college kids are probably at the DownTown location. :)
This seems to be the place to go for Sunday NFL gatherings! It is not a quiet little spot to watch the game (try the Dig on Sunday! Empty for Cowboys games!), but hey it's about making some noise for your team! And man, you see it all here. All ages, all teams are pretty much represented. The girls behind the bar (and guys) are quick and friendly, albeit a bit harried at times. Who can blame them?
The place is very large, very good TV placement so you can always find the game you want. Hell, I've even met some Vikings fans here!
Food? Well, it's bar food people, I think it's pretty reasonable. The beer is cold and there is a decent assortment on tap. It's a sports bar first and foremost, and I think they do it really well. Cover 2 is more trendy, yes, but you pay for that and I think I like my sports bars like I like my women, just a LITTLE on the trashy side. I won't name the places that take it too far, and come to think of it I won't name the women either. Let's remember what we are looking for, some sympathetic fans (and some opposing ones to rib a little!) and the game we want to watch on a decent sized TV in a clean bar with edible food. If that is what you want, let's meet there and make it a UYE!
Oh, also great parking,. easy access to the toll road and/or I35 means it is worth the trip, you southerners!
I don't cook. Like ever. Â So when it came time throw a margarita birthday party and needed some vittles, I turned to Third Base. Mainly because I am obsessed with chicken and waffles and some caterer wanted to charge me $200.00 for 'em.
Third Base has a catering menu but no one on the phone recommended them as a party tray. Â Wanna see a grown woman pout? Tell her she can't have her chicken and waffles. Â I told the guy my budget and played around with some options utnil we settled on the Chicken Diablo, Chicken Kabobs, Chips & Queso and Beef Sliders. Â
If you want to get a man's attention, dab a little Chicken Diablo sauce behind your ears and on the curve of your knees. The boys attacked the chicken as though it had escaped Megan Fox's cleavage. Â With vigor. Â Chicken stuffed with pepper and wrapped in bacon. I feared it at first because I don't DO spicy, but watching everyone lick their fingers like they were trying to get to Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop made me want to try it. The Chicken was very moist and the bacon was unexpectedly more sweet than spicy. Â I bought half a tray, but we easily could have gone through a full tray.
Chicken Kabobs. Â Yeah, nobody touched that shit. I'll be eating these damn things until my husband's birthday next year. Â
I bought the Queso for everyone at the party because I. Don't. Do. Queso. Â It's like orange rubber cement in a bowl. Â Again, the I forced people to take some homeer because, really, all they ate were those damn Chicken Diablos.
Beef Sliders were a close second. Â They went almost as fast, but no one bragged on them as much. Â As my husband says "It filled a hole and made a turd".
I've seen mixed reviews about their service, but they phone order was great. I asked for it to be prepared 30 minutes earlier and they had it ready. The manager brought the food out to me in the rain and was completely great.
Came here Friday night..and just missed the ending of HH which is from 3-8. dang it. . .ah well. I ordered a mexican martini. so good. . . i'd order that again. . pricy but good.
We shared the red mole sweet potato flautas. The mole wasnt mole.. it was just plain salsa..like pace picante... idk how they thought that was mole???
The flautas were ok.. fried and huge. . and an order was 3. we split them and were stuffed. 2 beers, 1 mex martini and 1 app, $24
I'll be bk during football season for the mimosas.
Oh, Third Base...
For 2 years I have been curious about your establishment, but now I'm regretting ever walking through your doors.
From the moment I walked in their door, there was absolutely no greeting. Seat ourselves? Ok, no problem, but I would still like to be acknowledged. Although there was nothing terribly remarkable about the appearance of me or my company, nearly everyone openly leered like we were the fat kids in the cafeteria.
We sat right next to the bar near the dart section (I will admit, the dart section looked pretty cool) and waited almost 20 minutes for anyone to notice us.
The two male bartenders on the floor were dressed like complete slobs. I understand it is a casual bar, but I don't think they could have looked any more like a pair of douche bags if they tried. The often took turns rubbing the shoulders and neck of the only female bartender present, which was plenty awkward to watch.
The only thing I could think is: Where is their mother? Better yet, where is their boss?!
My waitress was VERY sweet, but not well trained nor articulate (to say the least). They were out of 2 different beers my company wanted to try. She didn't know a whole lot about the menu.
They DID offer gluten free menu which I thought was kick ass--until I saw they had loaded sandwiches and burgers on there with ciabatta-like buns that are a gluten intolerant death trap. Um.. hello?!
To top it off, my steak/blue cheese sandwich was AWFUL. The meat was FREEZING cold, like it just got plucked out the back of the fridge and had zero flavor. The cheese was also very cold and clumpy. The crisp red onions turned out to be ONE soggy pathetic little onion.
Mind you, this should have been a HOT sandwich.
When my waitress poked the steak in sandwich to see what I was talking about, the disgusted look on her face made it clear that this wasn't how the sandwich was supposed to be...
My company's burger was terrible. Tiny and plain and flat. The salmon and asparagus I ordered in lieu of the sandwich was dry and overcooked. UGH!
I will say the cheese grits and sweet potato fries were yummy, but that's where the perks ended.
Disheartened, I took my dry salmon home and gave it to my dog.
I arrived at Third Base with my date last night after having waiting for nearly 20 minutes at Twin Peaks (across the highway) and not receiving ANY service. Like... none. No water.. no nothing. The manager there was also a dick.
Thank you for your prompt service and great food. We'll be back!
As far as sports bars go, this one is pretty average. The real reason I am giving a review though is because they have a really fun and well done trivia night on Wednesday nights. I have been to a few different ones around Austin and that one has been the best.
I recommend it if you and some friends are looking for something fun to do on a Wednesday
I went there for to watch NCAA March Madness basketball and ordered the tilapia tacos. Â The atmosphere was nice and a great TV set-up but when the taco came that squashed the vibe. I am not sure if the cook belonged for P.E.T.A Â or he thought that tilapias was an endangered species of fish but the micro potion of fish they served was ridiculous. Â It was one piece around the size of a fish stick that you would find at your local neighborhood elementary cafeteria.
Well I guess a silver lining is that I was hoping to lose weight and maybe if I keep ordering the Spicy Cilantro Jalapeño Sauce, Crisp Cabbage taco (w/ a hint of fish) I will be successful!
I was not impressed. Service was terrible, after waiting 10 minutes we finally just went to the bar, and the bar tender sent a waitress to our table. Our waitress was rude and not friendly at all.
We ordered some cocktails which were not very good ( i am not one to criticize a beverage but really they werent good) Every time we wanted something else we had to hunt down the waitress. The only time she was friendly and nice was when she gave us our bill....
Overall not a good experience, its a cool place and good atmosphere but the wait staff and the drinks were not up to par.
This is a great game-watching place. Some of the reviews were really terrible, but come on, people, know what you're getting into. It's a sports bar!
I went to watch the TX/OU game, and even though it was crazy crowded I was able to find a table for my small party. The waitress (Genevieve) came over right away and was extremely attentive, even in the midst of a big crowd and lots going on.
It's a great atmosphere for watching a game. There are tables everywhere, even out on the patio, and so many TVs that you can literally see not just one, but SEVERAL TVs from wherever you are.
Since we didn't get to be at the game (and state fair) this year, we ordered lots of "state fair" food and it was delicious: fried pickles, mini corn dogs, quesadillas, yum. (Again, you're at a sports bar--order bar food!) Buckets of beer were on special and perfect for our group.
Overall, a great place and atmosphere for game-watching.
I really hate the fact that this is the closest bar to my work. Â My co-workers and I go here because it's convenient, and we/I always have ridiculously bad service.
The last time I came here, our table waited 10 minutes for a server to come over to us. Â I just went up to the bar and opened a tab there. Â Still really slow service at the bar.
Though I prefer vodka or gin sodas, Â I've decided that's too complicated a drink order for the bartenders, so I stick strictly to bottled beers. Â Still takes forever.
I actually go to less happy hours with my co-workers because I hate going to this place. Â I really wish the owners and managers would try encourage their waitstaff to moderately attentive and polite. Â
While I don't really like going to Twin Peaks, I'd much rather be served by the perky, attentive girls in cheekies instead of the surly, pissy voids that work at Third Base.
Location sucks - it takes the act of congress to get to it - if your not familiar with Round Rock. Â The location is found between Target and Best Buy on the SE side of IH-35 feeder road in Round Rock.
They put are group inside in the direct sun and when asked to be moved -the original server had a MAJOR attitude towards us. Â
Service is always slow, the servers always seem like your are inconveniencing them with your presence, and the drink specials are nothing to write home about. Â
Only reason for 3 stars is because the food was half way decent.
Sports, Dart Boards, Brews, and Food... if those are the things you like, then you can come here for them.
 Most recently came here as an after work event. The place was moderately busy, and the food was "not bad." The wait and bar staff were very good at checking with you and keeping short conversations while you waited on your drink refills, food, etc.
 Personally, on this day I entered...it was warm in the place... this is Texas where 100 degrees is the average, walking into a place and you don't feel that "whoosh" of cool air... there is something wrong. Â
 Specifically concerning is that after sitting down for 30+ mins you don't feel the temperature change. Though it was cooler than being outside and I was not "uncomfortable" it would have been a better experience there had I been cooled off a few degrees.
 For the meal, I had the Turkey Panini and the the fried pickles. The best thing about the meal I will say is that the fried pickles were seasoned good, fried properly at a good temp to avoid saturating/burning/zapping the flavor from it, and had a good amount of spice to counter the tartness of the tasty pickle. I will most definitely order them when I return.
 As to the other items, I enjoyed the fact that they had a true Steel-tipped dart board (sorry I am bias and don't play "soft tip") area that was isolated to itself and not merely added as an attraction. Some places prefer to just throw the boards up on the wall as a decoration and novelty for the random player.
 As a dart player you learn to appreciate the ability to play darts without having to worry if some over indulging person will wander into the ballistic path of your sharpened dart and thus cause them an injury.
 Please understand I am NOT a snoot on darts, I just appreciate the opportunity to safely play a good game with friends without the need to worry about injuring someone. Plus, there are those random moments when a deflected dart can go astray.. the walled area here prevents that.. so thank you.
 Overall, I like the location, the feel, and the fun that the place can provide. I believe that the AC thing was just a "one off" and is probably fixed by now. I will go back and continue to give them a chance for improvement in my opinion by ordering more items and getting a better feel.
 As busy as the place stays I am confident that it is not just the location that brings people in.. I am confident that they have many things to offer many types of people... with that I am sure they have something there for you.
Nope, you've lost it. Â Rude staff, mediocre food, and a manager who sends e-mails but doesn't change performance.
Check the reviews for other Third Base bars around Austin. Â A bad review gets an e-mail from Brandon, but nothing changes.
I'm glad I've decided not to go back before baseball season started.
Dropped by the Round Rock Third Base today for the first time to watch football. Â Walked in and was really pleased by the layout and amount of big screen TV's around the place. Â That was however, where the pleasantries ended.
I brought my 8 year old son along and when we got our menus I asked where the kids section was. Â I was told there is no kids section. Â Now, outside of a "gentlemans club" who these days has a menu that does not have at least 3 or 4 kid options? Â Seriously, it's not that difficult. Â
The waitress tried to be accommodating and said that they could split an appetizer into a half portion for us at half the price, so my boy went for the mini-corn dogs. Â I went with the Chicken sandwich that boasted a zangy chipotle sauce.
When the food arrived, she said, "sorry, we can't do half orders after all" and dumped the full order of corn dogs on the table. Â No offer to discount the meal or anything at all. Â My boy predictably could only eat half.
My sandwich was pretty weak as well, and the sauce was missing entirely. Â If not for the game holding me hostage, I would have bailed much sooner. Â Overall, I was left with a bad taste in my mouth.
wow! WOW!
I am a fan of Third Base on 6th street when it is not crowded. I mean, it's okay for a sports bar. Okay food, lots of TVs. It does the trick.
So, since I was up in Round Rock I thought I would give that Third Base a shot. I mean really, how bad could it be. I was not blown away by the 6th street location so I was not expecting to be blown away by the Round Rock location.
Well...it was TERRIBLE! I walked in, walked through the bar and walked out pissed off.
Picture fat suburbanite women giving you dirty looks and old perverted men that probably just left Joy (the strip club around the corner). Â The place is small and these people swarm the inside of this place.
URGH! I feel sick evening typing about it this place.
It's disappointing that even the owner of this establishment feels this way. Here's the actual conversation he had with me. Judge for yourself on whether or not you'd like to come to this place.

We had Symon for our waiter. He blew so badly we started taking dishes and empty cups off of our table and putting them on the one next to ours. Â Â We finally were able to get our tab which ended up having things we did not order. Once we brought it to his attention he got bent out of shape and didn't believe us. When we got the "manager", Manny, he was useless, giving up nothing more than an apology. Â We weren't happy with his apathetic and insincere excuses and requested his superior's info, which he refused to release. He only gave HIS business card and promised that our complaint would be forwarded. This was my first time there and will definitely be my last. If the owner(s) read this and wish to make this right for us, then maybe we would consider giving this place another try and perhaps write a more favorable review.

Owner
Hi Sarah, I read your review Sunday and took it very seriously -- in fact enough to personally go down to our Round Rock store and sit down with Manny to learn everything I could about the incident.
Indeed it was regrettable that you received poor service -- I understand that it was an honest error (albeit inexcusable) on Symon's part, thinking you were already being helped because you sat down at a table with drinks on it. Â We are addressing that with him. Â I'm terribly sorry that happened -- that's not the norm at Third Base.
I understand Manny removed two of the three pitchers of beer off of your tab -- that was a very generous gesture I hope didn't go unnoticed. Â
All in all I do think you would be pleasantly surprised if you returned to give us another try. Â By far we receive many more positive comments about the service at Third Base Round Rock than negative comments. Â I do truly believe your experience was unique, however regrettable. Â I do hope you give us another try.
Sarah F.
The two pitchers he is referring to are the very ones that we never ordered.
Brendan P.
Owner
Is it not true they were ordered by others in your party that left without paying for them?
Not accusing, just trying to get to the bottom of this.

My husband and I were there from 145-9ish and in that time had two different sets of friends that met up with us. Our tabs had been separate the entire time. At no time did my husband and I offer to buy anyone's pitchers. With that said, there were pitchers ordered by the other parties. They all requested their tabs and paid when it was time for them to head out. I told both Manny & Symon that I wouldn't have known whether or not something had been paid or as it was on a separate tab. As infrequently as Symon stopped by our table it wouldn't surprise me if those were from another table entirely.
Brendan P.
Owner
I understand your frustration, and I share similar frustration when I get poor service at any establishment. Â I apologize sincerely for the fact that Symon didn't serve you well -- we are taking all necessary steps to make sure that doesn't happen again.
I encourage you to give us another shot -- I'm hopeful that you will change your mind and understand that this was truly a unique event.

I appreciate you taking the time to try and get to the bottom of this, however I think for now we'll go elsewhere. Any other manager in Manny's position should've comp'd part of the bill or given us a reason to return. Symon had already removed the two pitchers by the time we had asked for his manager, so Manny really wasn't any help.
Brendan P.
Owner
I can fully appreciate your decision to go elsewhere. Â To clarify, Manny did perform the comp -- servers are not able to do comps. Â I'm sorry you feel that a $22 comp on a $40 tab -- $18 after seven hours at Third Base -- was insufficient to justify your return.
Again however, I'm terribly sorry about the fact that your service was anything short of spectacular.

To clarify, Symon was our second waiter. The first waitress was fabulous and our tab with her was over $70. Her shift had ended and we offered to close out with so she could get her due tip. Â That's when he took over and we opened a new tab with him. Â The comp I'm referring to would be from what we actually ordered, not for what was allegedly left unpaid by another party. Again, thank you for your time.
Just don't bother.
Unless you like going to a "sports bar" that plays nothing but thug life hip hop, and caters to a room full of aggressive, arrogant morons that like to fight.
When your waiter tells you that things are getting better there, becuase they don't have fights every Friday and Saturday nights anymore, you know you are in the wrong bar.
When it takes you much, much too long to get drinks, or food, you are in the wrong bar. I don't really blame the servers for this. There are only a few of them, and they have to take care of what seem to be 20 to 30 table sections. No server is going to give good service in that environment. It is impossible.
I will not be going back. Went three times, to get a good feel, and walked out feeling a bit dirty every time.
If you are in this area, and just have to see a game on TV, go to Pluckers
I'm working on a project in the Round Rock area so I have been tasting away to get an idea of the local fare. Third Base became my 4th review in the Round Rock area this past week.
I went shortly after the lunch rush and didnt have to fight to get into the place. I walked into the front door and was instantly confused. There were no signs indicating whether I seat myself or wait to be seated. After a few minutes a bartender told us to grab a seat anywhere. I was excited to see that the venue had outlets so that the working person could plug in their lap-top. Not a lot of locations think about wall outlets, but in the Round Rock area its sort of important as they have so many "Techie" people frequenting.
I made it in time to enjoy the lunch menu specials. We first ordered an order of fried pickles. Our pickles came out immediately but they were so hot and still soaked in oil that I had to wait for them to dry. As a former chef, it makes me wonder if chefs think about tossing fried items inside a bowl with a paper towel to soak some of that up. I love fried pickles, but I just wish these weren't as hot. No sooner were my pickles cool enough for me to eat, was my appetizer delivered. I thought about it and realized that it might just be that this location understands the needs of their customers to get in and out as quickly as possible. I felt rushed. Servers, feel out the situation. In a place like Round Rock, you need to be able to sense whether your guests are in a hurry or not. I don't fault you for it though.
I decided upon the sliders (mini burgers) and a caesar salad. My partner had a regular burger with fries. My burger was good, the bun was over heated, but the caesar salad was EXCELLENT. I wish that I had gotten a large caesar instead. My friends burger and fries were great.
This place has wall-to-wall tvs with every sports showcase possible. It appears that they show UFC fights and special games as they are broadcast. They also had dart boards as well as pool table, shuffleboard and a few arcade games. The bar seemed to feature all the regular alcohols and draft beers but a big up for them carrying Fireman's #4.
If your looking for something to check out that offers more than just dinner or lunch, this is your place.
Warning - this review may contain subliminal messages. Â That being said, on with the review!
Nachos
Nacho chips piled high with melted cheese, beans, sweet corn, jalapenos, guacamole, and pico de gallo. Â 7.99 Â
Your choice of chicken or beef. Â 8.99
If you are looking for a place *nachos* to watch the game, you definitely want to check out this bar. Â It doesn't matter what game you fancy. Â I was sitting at the bar for the Rose Bowl and watching USC beat up on Penn State *chicken nachos* when I got distracted and started counting the big screens within view from my location. Â There were 18 unobstructed views *beef nachos* of flat panels hung about the dining room. Â The place loves sports so much that the men's room has two big screen flat panels and the women's room has one according to a friend of mine. Â Not sure why the ladies got ripped off, but I would definitely file a law suit or something if I were you.
They also have a patio, daily happy hour, drink specials, lunch specials, and super friendly staff *nachos* to keep you satisfied. Â Some friends and I returned to watch Florida crush Oklahoma in the BCS Championship Game *chicken nachos* and even though the place was packed inside and outside, our server *beef nachos* kept up with us throughout the evening and did it with a smile.
Oh. Â And by the way, this joint has the best nachos in all of Round Rock and possibly even Central Texas.
This place was awesome. Â We wanted to watch the Utah game, which isn't all that popular in Pflugerville, TX, (shocker) so my husband called about a week in advance and was promised that they would set a TV to the game requested. Â We have been suckered in to places with fancy promises before, only to be disappointed, so we called ahead again on the day of the game AND showed up an hour early (thank heavens there is a Target in the same parking lot because we needed to kill about an hour). Â
They let us choose any TV in the joint! Â Super nice customer service. Â We made ourselves comfortable since we were planning on staying for the entire 7 hours (or however long football games are these days) and we knew we would need plenty of snacks to make it through the long haul. Â They had AMAZING nachos piled high with all sorts of cheesy, spicy, gooey goodness. Â We also tried the mini-burgers which we fought over, they were so delicious.
