Yelp reviewer Cody S., from Cedar Park, wrote: “Best place in CP for craft beer. Great selection, new beers always coming in. The new food menu is great. The Monte Cristo is probably s one of my favs. The homemade potato chips with beer ketchup is a great happy hour snack, cheap and delicious. The patio is relaxing, you can bring your dog (or cat if you’re that person), and you can walk down to Hamrick’s for take home beer. It’s a match!”

Natalie Y., from Cedar Park, wrote: “Such a great little find for Cedar Park. This gem is tucked away, so you have to look for it...but once you know it’s there, you’ll know you have to return. Great chill place. Cold brew is delicious. We’ve stopped at the end of a ride, and felt comfortable leaving bikes out front and even slipping off our cycle shoes to relax. We’ve also been at night, and the place is full. Live music and great wine!”

Doghouse Drinkery Dog Park - 3800 County Rd. 175, Leander

This dog park also has a bar and great eats like the sriracha burger and dog house grilled cheese. They have a good selection of craft beer, but what’s even better is being able to go out and not have to worry about leaving your pet at home.

Jessica M., from Austin, wrote: “So, what’s the deal? You show up, check in at the bar, get a beer (AND A COOZIE - winning), and then your dog gets to run around with other wonderful dogs. It’s $5 per dog, and this gets you supervision and staff who picks up after the dogs. No lie. Well worth $5.”

This little Leander bar has a great selection of rotating taps and pizza to go along with it.

Nichole C., from Leander, wrote: “This is a fun no frills place to hang out. The beer selection is unsurpassed. The taps revolve so its a great place to try all sorts of new beers if you are a craft beer junkie like my husband and I. Food is outstanding. Our favorite is the Jalapeno Pesto Fries and the pizza.”

Michael D., from Austin, wrote: “Amazing [assortment] of hand picked beer from around the country and world. Staff is super knowledgable and helpful. My wife and I try something new every week....though at the moment can’t seem to get enough of the Decadent from Detroit.”
