Sunday, November 1, 2026, 12:00 AM - 3:00 AM · Nickel City, East Austin, Austin
Nickel City transforms into Moe's Tavern through October 31st with Simpsons-themed decor and arcade games. The pop-up serves Krusty Burgers, Patty & Selma melts, and coffee and donuts cocktails featuring donuts by Philip Speer.
A multi-page whiskey list and Detroit-style Coney dogs sharing the same room is exactly the kind of slightly unhinged bar math Nickel City pulls off well. Draft Pimm’s pours alongside ice-cold Lone Stars, the patio fills up fast as East 11th wakes up, and the bar keeps rolling from noon until 2am every single day.
Herb-infused gin, sweet vermouth, Cynar, pepperoni garnish.
Rum, Curacao, orgeat, and lime—a tropical riff on the classic.
Irish whiskey, coffee liqueur, and cream blended frozen.
A shot and a beer — the classic Nickel City order, no overthinking required.
On draft, silky-smooth — vodka, coffee liqueur, cold brew pulled from a tap.
Chili, mustard, onion on a natural-casing dog — Detroit done right in Austin.
