Walked in and immediately felt at home. All your typical American beers in bottles available. Even comes with a coozie. Only chips available. Free pool tables, several of them. Live music everyday Wednesday. It's your classic neighborhood bar that hasn't changed in 20 years. Highly recommend. All one level, easy parking.

They have a couple of dogs(top reason to come back) and for some reason it was very nostalgic and felt like I was back at a local bar in a small town, middle of nowhere in Canada. Friendly folks but no food except for some packaged snacks. Also, no liquor. But they have beer and it's cold!

Great little old school north Austin honkeytonk. Gritty, dark, friendly, with pool tables and darts, cold beer in bottles and love, authentic local country singers. We've recently discovered this Burnet Rd bar after struggling with the crowds at the recently discovered Aristocrat the down the road. Don't get me wrong, we love the Aristocrat, and are pleased with their success, but many nights it's just too crowded. Buddy doesn't seem to be having that problem, but it's just right for us. If they could get the shuffleboard table back they'd be perfect, but we'll be back anyway.We'll be back.

I've been to Austin many times over the years, but had spent almost all my time in Central Austin. I was back last week for business and wanted to find something authentic and local. Google search pointed me to "the Burnett Road pub crawl", which is a network of dive bars off Burnett Road just west of downtown. I had THE best time! This is what Austin used to be, great local live music and perfectly "weird" people. You could have filmed a Tarantino scene in this place and not changed a this. No food, also no cocktails. The bartender informed me "we just have beer and wine, and I'd stat away from the wine"!!!
