Twin Creeks Icehouse

Twin Creeks Icehouse sits on Cypress Creek off FM 2769 between Lake Travis and RR 620, and regulars rightly call it the best hidden bar in Austin. The creek-side setting, cold beer, and relaxed outdoor character give it an unhurried atmosphere that is genuinely hard to replicate in a city that keeps getting busier. Most shows happen on Wednesday nights with open mic on Sundays, and the room only works with self-managed artists rather than booking agent submissions. Tom has been the soul of this place for years.
