Space Cowboy

Space Cowboy is a futuristic-themed bar and restaurant on East 7th Street in Austin, built inside a converted former Mexican grocery store. Its signature gimmick is a fleet of small robot spaceships running on an overhead track that deliver food and drink orders to tables. The menu runs from braised short ribs to Singapore-style skewers alongside an inventive cocktail list, and the space includes a private parking lot. It's a novelty stop in East Austin's bar corridor, more themed restaurant-bar than dive, worth a look for riders who want something different from a standard saloon.
