Rainey Street, Austin · bar
Four floors above Rainey Street, Clive leans fully into its Texas saloon aesthetic: a horseshoe bar, saddle stools, and a stuffed longhorn mounted overhead with a direct view down into the neighborhood chaos below. The covered lower deck runs DJs most nights, remnants of the original horse stable still sit out back, and while the drinks land squarely in craft-cocktail territory, the atmosphere refuses to become precious about it.
