About this Bar

What you'll experience:

You pull up to Wakesurf Saloon still salty from the lake, slide onto a barstool, and the Texas Mule is already sweating on the bar top in front of you.

  • Lake Travis Lemonade – A house signature blending vodka, lemonade, and blue curaçao that tastes exactly like a day on the water should end.

  • Wakesurf Wings – Crispy, saucy, and available in enough flavors that your group will argue over which to order (get both).

  • Live Music Weekends – Local acts take the stage every Friday and Saturday, so the energy picks up right when you need it to.

  • Trivia and Karaoke Nights – Weeknight events that turn a casual drink into an actual night out worth planning around.

  • Lakeway Nachos – Loaded with cheese, jalapeños, and your choice of protein, the kind of bar snack that actually fills you up.

This is a no-pretense dive bar that earns its keep: cold drinks, real food, and a crowd that came to have fun. The lake-life energy carries right through the door.

Why we love it for your group night out:

  • Happy Hour (Mon–Fri, 4–7 PM) – Discounted drinks on weekdays mean your group spends less and stays longer.

  • Multiple HD Screens – Enough screens throughout the venue that no one misses the game, no matter where you're sitting.

  • Walk-In Friendly – No reservation required, so you can show up straight from the dock without planning.

  • Customizable Party Packages – If you're celebrating something, the team can set up a package so you're not coordinating everything yourself.

  • Starting at $10/drink – Signature cocktails at a price point that doesn't punish you for ordering a second round.

Drinks start at $10. Walk-ins are always welcome, so there's no need to book ahead; just show up.
