Austin, TX · Cocktail Strip

East Cesar Chavez Happy Hours

A fast-changing strip with strong cocktail bars and food-forward happy hours.

CocktailsPatiosFood ForwardLate Night

East Cesar Chavez has been one of Austin's fastest-changing corridors — cocktail bars with serious programs, food-forward happy hours, and a mix of old neighbourhood spots and newer openings. The deals here lean more food than pure drink, and the windows tend to run a bit later than downtown. This guide shows what's running on the strip right now.

Best for:Serious cocktailsFood-forwardDate nights

Bars along East Cesar Chavez Ave between 183 and Airport Blvd.
