À propos de ce lieu Swan Dive

Swan Dive is a live-music bar at 615 Red River Street in Austin's Red River Cultural District. It books local and touring bands, along with variety and burlesque-style nights, for an arty, alternative crowd. It's a gay-friendly mainstream bar, not a gay venue. The 107 Google reviews average 4.0. It shares a back patio with Barbarella next door, so it's easy to move between the two. Downtown's gay bars, including the Fourth Street strip, are a short walk west. Check the listings before you go, because cover charges and the crowd depend on who's playing that night.

Got denied because security had never seen a green card before.

I used to love going to Barbarella and Swan Dive. For such a lovely space and fun atmosphere, the guys checking id are THE WORST. For starters, they look like they would fit in more at Mohawk. They can’t even pretend to like their job or crack a smile or say hello. They just look angry and miserable, not really what you want for your first customer interaction. I worked as a door guy on 6th street for a long time (up until last year) and I ALWAYS tried to make people feel welcomed. I never understood rude or angry door guys, I don’t get the tough guy act. Literally the worst part of coming here is dealing with them.

I had an amazing experience, my fiancé and I came for the Devil's night rave and we had such a great time. Drinks can be a little pricey depending on what you get but I'll definitely be back!
