La Holly

Walked in not knowing what to expect. Loved it! Great bartenders that know craft cocktails! Taco Flats is a great trailer there, definitely recommend.

This place is great! Twas a rainy day so we stayed inside but delicious cocktails. We had the Oaxaca wipeout and Spicy margaritas. I’m not a medical lover but the OW was so good! Great service too. We will return, esp for happy hour.

Great bartenders and the mescalitas were on point. I also enjoyed a nice craft beer on tap from Zilker and there was an awesome food truck out back in the patio area. Great atmosphere inside and out and service was good too.

At La Holly, it feels like the bar and taqueria are competing against each other to make their respective customer as happy as possible. The real winners are anyone that comes to visit, but I’d give the taqueria a slight advantage. With any taco, it always comes down to the base, the taco, and the fresh tortillas at La Holly make all the difference. My wife and I had the shrimp, brisket, carne asada, chori queso and fish al pastor tacos. My favorites were the carne asada (which had perfectly seasoned meat) and brisket (which had the best combinations of flavors and ingredients), but the shrimp and queso tacos were also excellent. While the fish al pastor taco was an interesting combination, it wasn’t as memorable as the other tacos. On the drinks side, the micheladas are extremely balanced with a perfect combination of salty, limey, tomatoe-y and spicy flavors. The Oaxacan wipeout and spicy frozen marg were also very tasty.

We had a really fun meet up here with a big group of friends. The bartender, Charles, sets the AC down low and let's the good times roll. The outside area is really well thought out and a nice place to hang out. We really enjoyed the spicy frozen margaritas and the friendly bartenders too! It was my first time having Taco Flats, and I’ve been in Austin for a very long time! I’ve been missing out! All the tacos we tried were the bomb.com. Can’t wait to go back to this laid-back, out of the way Eastside hangout.

Our favorite local spot here in east Austin, great drinks and service. Cozy atmosphere with plenty of outdoor space for social distancing in the back patio. Great food back there too. Kyle was our bartender and he made our night

Visited Austin and stopped into La Holly while waiting for some food. Pretty unassuming bar, but they made some of the best cocktails I've ever had. Ended up coming back a few days after to sample some more drinks! Highly recommend and will definitely be back on my next trip!

A dedicated tequila + mezcal bar is such a treat (especially coming from North Carolina, where we have limited access to agave spirits for whatever reason); both cocktails were delicious. I really wanted to order something off the food menu, but was far too full - it all looked really good, though!

Alex Lewis

Phenomenal local spot in east Austin that offers the most incredible cocktail options. Their tequila list is mind blowing and the bar tenders make a strong and tasty margarita. You will not be disappointed with the options!

Oh my GOD. Favorite drink I've had in Austin, maybe ever? The frozen la sancha is just sublime. The mezcal isn't overpowering and the flavors are just so wonderful together. Lovely vibe too on the back patio. I wish I lived in Austin so I could come here every week and try all the other drinks. GO HERE!!!!

a fantastic bar in East Austin! Alex, the bartender, was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful with choosing drinks based on the type of drink(s) you like. the despertar and la lechuza were our favorites but we also loved the golden elixir and maurudo were fantastic options!

Love this little bar. Feels like a piece of Oaxaca in Austin. PS-best hot toddy in town during the cold season!

We love La Holly! We were bummed that they were closed on New Year’s Eve, even though their Google page said “open.” Hopefully they will update this in the future :’(

Really enjoyed the cocktails here! Very creative and delish! The tacos from Taco Flats complemented the margs well! Cheers

Great bar in East Austin. Quaint and small but amazing vibes. The cocktails are fantastic. I personally recommend the El Diablo if you enjoy drinks that are a bit spicy. The bartenders are friendly and there is great ambience as well.

I really enjoyed my visit here. Ask for James - he was very kind and made great conversation. All of our drinks were really good, and the fresh made jalapeño margarita was legitimately spicy. Definitely lived up to its expectation. To order food, you use your phone by scanning a QR code on the menu and order separately from the bar. Your food comes out from the food trucker parked outside. The guacamole was very yummy, and fresh, as well as the chips. This place is very dog friendly. It is very cute, and quaint. It’s a really great happy hour spot to chill and listen to some great music while enjoying some fresh made drinks and snacks. They had a small, but really good beer selection. I felt very welcomed and comfortable here. The staff was really nice and kept the place clean. I will definitely be coming back here.

Very relaxed bar, with 10x more outdoor seating than indoor. Classically Austin outdoor seating and non pretentious, come as you are place. Box cars, they lights, fans, benches, steel mesh fences chest high, stand up or sit down seating, food truck… you know, Austin. Located at what is currently the END of east 6th (for today, tomorrow there will be another half mile worth). Parking is street parking only in the area. Though currently that’s not too bad. Staff was not friendly the night I came but meh, could have been a bad night for them. Drat beer is not even close to cold enough, skip it, go bottled.

You can only order from a scan QR code. It forced me to add a card to Google pay as my phone is an android. It kept my cc information and I had to login to remove it. The food is great but I will not eat here again because I hate adding my credit card to any program and having it SAVE it without an option. For a one off payment. No stars for payment.

I so badly want to absolutely love this neighborhood bar but after visiting a handful of times over the past year I haven’t been able to. To start with the positive; the drinks really are delicious. I love their frozen drink options and espresso martini. However, I’ve never felt welcomed by the bartenders. They always seem to be annoyed to take our orders, and answer questions in an exasperated manner the majority of the time. It’s disappointing since my experience with the staff at other bars in the neighborhood are so positive, it caught us by surprise how much they seemed to not want us there, even when the bar is pretty much empty. I’m sure I may find myself here again and I hope to have a more positive experience.

Bartender made us feel like we weren’t welcome and seemed upset to make drinks. Won’t come back since there’s plenty of places to get drinks in Austin with better vibes.

I wouldn't feed this food to my dog. All the meat was leather-quality overdone, the guys running it were jerks to my friends for asking for salsa and napkins, all far too overpriced to accept as a donation let alone pay for. Definitely drink here, let this terrible taco truck go out of business as fast as possible.

Absolutely revolting experience. The moment you walk in, you're hit with an unbearable stench that should have been the first warning sign. The staff is incredibly rude and dismissive, as if doing their job was a personal inconvenience. The entire atmosphere feels dirty and unwelcoming. Save your money.
