This is one of my favorite bars. They recently updated the furniture and it looks so good! It's very comfy and the drinks and fun. The bartenders are always very friendly. I never have a issue finding a seat either which is a huge plus. There's plenty of seating and lounge areas.
Last time I had the wings and I was so shocked at how good they were. Will definitely order them again and again.

The South Congress Hotel always been our stop and relax hangout while shopping on South Congress Avenue. It’s a modern sleek hotel with nice restaurants, and places sit and relax.
With one of the restaurants closed my wife and I took refuge in the Lobby Bar where we found seats at the bar and dropped our bags. The guy next to me was kind enough to scoot over and suggested the Italian Julep, so I decided ordered it. And ended up a good decision. The bar was busy with a few people mingling with each other and some staring at their laptop. The decor was vibrant and the bartender was busy making specialty drinks.
Soon my Italian Julep was in front of me with a darkish orange color with a mint leaf floating on it … took one sip. The taste was minty and fresh with a deep flavor to it. Perfect to have on a hot sunny day after a day of walking in the heat. My wife enjoyed her Coke too.
We both finished our drinks and gathered our things, thanked the bartender and made our way back home. Someday we will stay a night or two here to enjoy the full experience at this nice hotel pretending to be a tourist from out of town.
Bartenders are helpful and knowledgeable, treat them god and they will reciprocate. We were at the bar. Seemed to be a concert out back. Drinks can be a bit expensive but there are a few cheaper options. Nice chill spot to hit before a show or event along south Congress
Great happy hour great bar tender
I LOVE THIS BAR! Super extensive bar menu and great snacks! It's very aesthetically pleasing, but cozy too! Great date spot, but also plenty of room for family and friends. The staff is so sweet and very professional. Also, the lighting is dope. Makes everybody look really pretty.
This is our go-to place when we need an hour to unwind (often times before the work day is officially over). If you have a chance sit at the bar and Bradley will take care of you!.
Fun place. We love hanging out here. Good vibes!
We travel to Austin as often as possible and when I arrive at this spot on a Friday evening, I am home. Great mix of people and the food is good. The smiley face above the bar says it all ❤️
I make sure to visit the Lobby Bar when I'm in Austin, even when I'm not staying at the South Congress Hotel. Outstanding cocktails in a city with a lot of good cocktail bars, relaxed but trendy vibe, friendly service.
