La Preferida

La Preferida is a bar on North Lamar Boulevard in North Austin, running as a straightforward drinking establishment and lounge rather than a themed cocktail spot. State mixed-beverage tax data puts the bar's revenue at roughly 77,000 dollars a month, putting it solidly among the busier neighborhood bars in the area. It keeps late hours, open Monday until just before midnight and Tuesday through Sunday from 4:30pm to 2am. Away from the downtown bar strips, it's a North Lamar neighborhood option for a rider looking for a straightforward stop off North Austin's main corridor.
