There's a saying around here: “Keep Austin Weird.” It's not just a familiar phrase. Take a look around and you'll see it's a way of life. Folks wear it with pride.
We'll dial you into what's what, from hitting live music joints to staking out a spot (other than our sweet deck) to see the world's largest urban bat colony emerge in summer. Sounds weird maybe, but it's really a thing and it's something else. We'll have you living life as the locals do in no time. We're quirky and we know it, so we clap our hands. Austin might be weird, but in the best way.
