Shiner's Saloon — Restaurant in Austin

Been here twice and love the music and the drinks are good. Really liked the rooftop bar and the amount of games they got up there to keep you entertained.

Went there the last time and had a waitress tell us not to play the punching game because a lady had her service dog there and it was hurting his ears. We put 10 dollars worth in it and got in only two hits, however, we stopped immediately and said sorry about 10 times.

Overall a great spot, not sure why it didn't come up on any searches I did but I heard the music from the street and took a chance and it was a...

Horrible, horrible service. Not sure how the overall rating is 4.4. Honestly, pretty upset I didn't read more reviews. Went to the upstairs patio bar, extremely rude bartender who basically didn't speak, answering in nods only. No plates provided. 5 of us sitting, only 3 sets of utensils given. I have no words, but I have all the words...never, ever had an experience like this. It's laughable.

The only saving grace, was the food that we actually did order....was pretty tasty. but NOT...
