Moontower Saloon, ATX 📍

Spending a weekend in Austin, my fiancé and I are always on the lookout for places that welcome our furry best friend. That's how we stumbled upon Moontower Saloon, and it quickly became our absolute favorite spot, especially when college football season rolls around! It's not just a bar; it's an experience, and honestly, it feels like a second home for us and our pup. Beyond just watching college football, which is fantastic on their big screens, Moontower Saloon truly shines with its incredible dog-friendly vibe. They don't just tolerate dogs; they embrace them! We were so impressed to find out they offer 'ice licks' for when our fur baby gets a bit warm. It’s such a thoughtful touch that shows they genuinely care about their four-legged visitors. There are always water bowls available, and the sprawling outdoor space, shaded by beautiful trees, means there's plenty of room for pups to spread out and relax while we enjoy our drinks. The atmosphere here is just fantastic. It’s super laid-back and casual, perfect for a sunny Austin afternoon or a lively evening. You absolutely have to check out their rotating food trucks. I’ve had everything from delicious tacos to classic American fare like juicy burgers and even a great sandwich and some Fritos from a truck there once – perfect game day fuel! And for drinks, their menu is fantastic; I love their margaritas with that spiced rim and lime slices I saw in my pic! They’ve got a great selection of local beers and craft cocktails, so there’s always something new and exciting to try. While we love our game days, Moontower Saloon is so much more than just a football spot. They often have live music, which adds another layer of fun to the outdoor setting. It’s a great place to just hang out with friends, enjoy the Austin weather, and meet other dog parents. We’ve had so many memorable afternoons here, just soaking in the good vibes with our dog snoozing peacefully by our feet. If you're in Austin and looking for a truly unique and welcoming spot, especially if you have a dog, you absolutely have to visit Moontower Saloon. It's the perfect blend of great drinks, delicious food truck grub, and an unbeatable dog-friendly atmosphere. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!
