About this Bar

What you'll experience:

You walk into East End Ballroom on Austin's East 5th Street and the night has already mapped itself out: dinner with your group, a live band setting the tone, then a national touring DJ taking the room from bar to dance floor without anyone having to leave or regroup.

  • Cocktail Bar – The full craft cocktail menu gives your group a real drink experience, not a speed-pour situation, from the first round through last call.

  • Live Music – A rotating lineup of live performers plays most nights, with the energy building naturally toward the DJ set that follows.

  • DJ Nights – National touring DJs take over later in the evening on weekends, turning the venue into a full dance party while you stay exactly where you are.

  • Indoor and Outdoor Space – The venue moves between covered indoor areas and an open outdoor section, so your group can spread out, find a corner, or take over a patio.

  • Photo Moments – Built-in photo booth setups are part of the venue layout, not an afterthought, so the group shots happen without coordinating anyone.

East End Ballroom fits the whole night into one address. No venue-hopping, no cover charge anxiety, just dinner, drinks, live music, and dancing in one place on one reservation.

Why we love it for your bachelorette or birthday group:

  1. VIP Table Reservations – You can lock in reserved seating before you arrive, so your group has a home base no matter how packed the room gets.

  2. Dinner for Any Size Group – The kitchen serves groups of any number, which means you eat together, drink together, and start the night right instead of splitting up to find a restaurant first.

  3. LGBTQ+ and Pet Friendly – The venue is openly welcoming, which means everyone in your group is comfortable from the moment you arrive.

  4. Late Night Hours – East End Ballroom stays open until 2am on Fridays and Saturdays and is open Wednesday through Sunday, giving your group real flexibility on timing.

  5. One Reservation Covers Everything – Dinner, the show, the DJ set, and your seating are all tied to a single booking, so nothing falls through the cracks mid-night.

Cocktails start at $11. Reservations are suggested, especially for weekend nights when the DJ draws a full room. Book your spot on Batch to lock in your table before the weekend fills up.

About the neighborhood

East 5th Street sits on Austin's East Side, a stretch that locals know well but that most visitors haven't found yet.

You're within walking distance of other East Side bars and restaurants, so the night has options if your group wants to explore before or after.

The area has a grittier, more local feel than Sixth Street, which makes it a better fit for groups who want something that actually reflects Austin rather than the tourist version of it.
