East Austin, Austin · bar
Cocktails from a legit mixologist share the menu with tall boys and old-world wines, reflecting Volstead’s New Orleans–leaning bar program that refuses to separate things by price point or occasion. The backyard patio is deceptively large from the street, with a dance floor that comes alive when the DJs start. Drag brunch from the Vixens of Volstead—two-time Austin Chronicle Best Drag Showcase winners—packs the weekends, so reservations aren’t optional.
