The Sahara
1413 Webberville Rd, Austin, TX
Sahara Lounge is a live-music venue at 1413 Webberville Road in East Austin, housed in the former TC's Lounge building and decorated with a Texas-juke-joint-meets-African aesthetic. The lineup runs across genres — indie, African, blues, rock, country, swing, Brazilian and funk — with an outdoor courtyard, a pool table and free parking next to the building.
Saturday nights are the venue's signature draw, built around Africa Night, when the dance floor fills up and a small West African dinner buffet is included with entry. It's closed Monday and Tuesday, so riders should plan a Wednesday-through-Sunday visit.
