Lala's Little Nugget
2207 Justin Ln, Austin, TX
Lala's Little Nugget is a North Austin dive bar that has kept its Christmas decorations up year round since opening in 1972, filling the walls and rooftop with lights, garland and holiday memorabilia. It is one of the city's best known dive bars, with a back room for pool tables and outdoor tables under an awning for hanging out between rounds.
The bar does not serve its own food, but a pizza spot next door covers that, and it runs a weekday happy hour along with a boozy brunch on weekends. It is a quiet, distinctive stop worth a detour off North Lamar.
