Murray's Tavern

Murray's Tavern is a bar and restaurant on Webberville Road in East Austin, named for the maiden name of owner Travis Tober's grandmother, who was his first bar guest when he began bartending at nineteen. The kitchen and bar serve a wide-ranging menu that runs from oysters Rockefeller and beef tartare to prime rib and fish and chips, alongside classic cocktails like a Rob Roy and a Frozen Brandy Alexander. The tavern keeps a spacious outdoor patio and regularly hosts trivia nights and live music, drawing a mixed neighborhood and downtown crowd looking for a slower pace than the Sixth Street strip. It is open daily, seven days a week, with generous portion sizes reviewers frequently cite as a reason to come back.
