Live music venue with great Austin vibe. Bar food was ok!

I came here as a part of a business trip where the after conference celebration was held. The location was beautiful with a wonderful rooftop bar & view. They also had live music playing, and a lot of great food. The drinks were good and the bartender was very fast, overall it was a great time. I will say that walking back to my hotel from this location in the later part of night wasnt the greatest experience, just because this is a Bar filld street with a bunch of late night activities. However the walk back was fine, you just need to be aware of your surroundings.

We were trying to find a relatively quiet bar with good love music on the 6th and thats exactly what we found. The live band was amazing, performed a number of great songs. Pretty chill. The drinks are not the best though.

Music was great but food not so much. Just eat before you go. Interesting collection of memorabilia!

Great indoor/outdoor seating. Live music, TVs, arcade games.

The live music by The Genders drew us in, we really enjoyed jamming out with these guys. However, with all the other bars having great live music....the drink prices at this venue are pretty steep. A shot of Patron and one very small and watered down cherry vodka sour cost $17.....went to The Library (bar, not books) up the road and purchased the same deal for significantly less.

Your standard bar on 6th St. Can of beer and a shot available. Your enjoyment depends on the music. Sonny Wolf is great, Mother Covers also very good.

I would totally recommend going to this place when you visit Austin. Though this place has long waiting line to get it, it is totally worth the wait. There is plenty of open area as well as covered seating inside. Grab a drink and enjoy the music!

What a great place to hang out downtown - I went here for a bachelor party with my bros, and got a tonne of whiteclaws.Of course the night only got better and better as the bar staff was quick and the DJ played progressively better music thorough the night. The only reason. I dock 1 star is because the claws were a bit more expensive than wed like.

Took the wife to Austin for her birthday and spent time at Maggie Maes. We enjoyed the live music downstairs for a while then headed upstairs to people watch the folks on 6th street from the balcony. The staff was friendly and we really enjoyed the place. We will be back.

Maggie Maes epitomizes Austin. Its a perfectly sized two-story music venue with two lives band all the time. Its super lit, and is also a great place to go with mom and dad because of its comfortable, intimate environment.

One of the better bars on 6th (in my opinion). It is pretty large, has a great stage downstairs, typically filled by an awesome band. Also has a great upstairs covered area overlooking 6th where you can people watch.

Review №23

Its the oldest and one of the most prestigious establishments in the downtown Austin area. There has been more talent come across their stage than and almost anywhere else. In an age where prerecorded music in common this place still host home grown live music every night of the week happy hr and primetime. Still reserving space for DJ and several bars within Maggie Maes has it all.

Review №28

Probably the best bar on Dirty 6th. Lots of people but lots of space. Service is usually pretty quick for a packed place. Overhanging the street with friends is great. 2 stages as well so you can choose what kinds of music youd like to choose from. I have always had a good time.

A nice venue to have a drink, and soak in the atmosphere of the location. On a warm Austin night it is great venue to have a local beer and watch the tourists and bucks/hens parties having a good time.It is perched above a street full of characters, and gives you a birds eye view into other locations across the road.Well worth a visit.

Good vibes, not unlike a lot of the places on 6th street. But the drinks here are really cheap. Star deducted because the DJ seemed determined to clear the floor every other song, even though it never got all that crowded.

Always a favorite! Great music (live on 1st, DJ on 2nd). Not too loud (can still have a conversation), but occasionally have to move around due to outdoor space and smokers).

The Staff is professional, and ftiendly.. They have a smoking area, smokers dont have to go outside.. The house sound was very good.. Upstairs they have aWideScreen for televised events.Also theres an outdoor overlook where you have a clear look at the comings, & goings of Sixth Str.. Sometimes this can be quite a show in itself, at night its always a sight to see.. Drink prices are the same as everyone else down there.. Maggie Maes is one of The Top Clubs on Sixth Street.

Great 6th street hang out. Plenty of live music and areas to hang out inside and out. The drinks are reasonably priced and include a nice selection of local beers. Great view from the rooftop. Good service too. There are a couple of TVs if you dont want to look at your friends.

Love the indoor/outdoor feel, and live music and DJs. There’s not very much open space to stand, and the clientele is definitely a certain crowd, but it’s always a fun time! A classic stop on a 6th street crawl

My favorite bar on 6th St - Friendly barstaff, fantastic open top patio, and lots of different talented musicians play here every week. They also sometimes do private parties with some of the best food this side of Red River.

Great venue. Great service. Three music stages during #SXSW

Review №69

Granted my visit was during SXSW but the door guys were pretty obnoxious and one of what seemed to be a female manager went up to an entire crowd of people and started grabbing and pushing them screaming telling them to leave. The layout does not make the most sense for a show venue as there is a ton of space but the sound and music playing was good. TI was performing as part of SXSW

I had one of the best nights of my life in Austin, Texas at Maggie Maes on a Sunday (tonight). Staff were all incredibly kind and welcoming to some out of town (slightly crazy) friends I had come in with. My experience there has made sure Ill forever adore this place. Great band, great staff, and just an amazing place overall. I only suggest you not go there because then there is more room for me :). Thank you soooo much Maggie Maes!!!

Great music and fun atmosphere! The lead guitarists allowed some younger musicians in the crowd play and it was awesome!! They were all very talented and it was nice to not see the crabs in the bucket mentality, Austin truly lives up to the hype as the music capital.

One of my favorite bars. The drinks arent exactly the best priced in the area. The atmosphere is really good to meet friendly new people and have a good time. There is also rooftop access to look down upon all the other drunkards as they stumble around 6th street. No cover and open seating upstairs. Great place.
