The Wheel Austin Reviews
Had a few dates here at the beginning of my relationship with the occasional coming over just for a drink or two. Low key and relaxed place, stiff cocktails, and good beer. The bartenders and door guy are nice as well. Been going since 2016.
The Wheel does an excellent pairing of bring-your-own vinyl and happy hour for Tuesdays that I highly recommend. Adjacent to the wheel is ADP, which runs a $3 taco special on Tuesdays as of March 2025. An excellent place to relax with friends after the work day!
Really good drinks. Nice patio. Difficult parking but worth it for the vibes. Nice music. Chill atmosphere.
Great place I love it not too crowded and there is smoking patio outside the bartender was super nice the beer was good plenty of parking and great location around other bars as well highly recommend it
We came in for HH after Sour Duck and really enjoyed ourselves. The bartenders were friendly and the HH options decent. A small indoor area to escape the heat, but there’s a larger shady outdoor seating area as well. Would go back when it’s darker to sit outside and enjoy the evening.
Atmosphere was great. Laycee and Dom were excellent and so friendly. We got well shots at only 5 bucks! We needed them after the JT concert at moody center. Heads up this is the closest bar to that venue (walking), we took lime scooters and were there in no time! My colleagues got whiteclaw, they only have mango and black berry though so def should upgrade to black cherry and lime but i got a Mexican martini after trying and denying the black berry whiteclaw lol and it was superb! Literally one of the best I’ve had in Austin! I got 2, Dom made my 1st and made me come back for a 2nd made by Laycee, and both were perfect! They have an outdoor patio and chill indoor bar top. Check this place out, doubt you’ll be disappointed!
I used to frequent The Wheel often, I moved away and moved back and I am glad to see that they’re still providing the same type service and quality cocktails. Bartenders are pretty awesome, experienced and friendly. I have been back twice already and plan to continue to come back. Great place for a night cap; especially if you’re not done with date night at nearby restaurants. The outside seating area is nice and chill. Check it out with friends.
The man kicked us out because he didn't want to serve us, he was lazy and talking bad words to us, never coming in my life to this bar
The bar back here with a greasy man bun is on a power trip and will snatch drinks out of your hand aggressively without calmly asking you to leave the bar.
You have to give at least a star and I did not want to give that!!!!!! I have been to the wheel a couple of years ago. I really liked the vibe then. My sister was in town I chose the wheel again yesterday. However, the experience was definitely not the same!!!! The bartender (male) was blatantly rude.Answers were short as though I had offended him by asking questions. I have never experienced that type of behavior from a bartender of being so dry and non verbal. I left the drink I'd purchased and I wish to never return!!!!
