Not a lot has changed since the last time I was here, like a decade ago. There s a food truck in back which is great. Nice outdoor venue.
I like it...isolated and has a great vine. I would love to see more shows here
Great outdoor venue, even at a sold out show found some decent standing room with a good view. Just make sure to move away from the entrance, it will be packed there.
If you like airport TSA friendliness, then this place is for you.
The ambiance of this place is sooo lovely, chilled and relaxed!
Nice venue, easy to find parking, great space for outdoor shows and good selection of grub and drinks.
Went here for the Oh Snap! Festival and had a blast! Great outdoor space and you can get close to the bands and still be comfortable. Good drink prices and the people are friendly. I would recommend it to everyone I know !
As the oldest bar in Austin, The Historic Scoot Inn has infinite hipster cred (ugh...the Scoot Inn is SO OVER). And it's turned into quite the decent music venue. The past few years have seen it transform from a run-down shack into a much classier establishment, now complete with a giant wooden deck. I've been to a handful of music concerts (SXSW, Scootenanny!, etc.) and social events here and it's always been a blast. With the continued eastward expansion of the downtown nightlife, Scoot Inn no longer seems that far away from the rest of the city. You're just a block away from East/Hipster Sixth Street. Go Forth.
Cool spot. Awesome staff. Great venue to listen to some music.
Cool outdoor venue! Great visual access to the whole band. Has an indoor cat, so-so bathrooms. Ffair security. Prepare to walk from your distant parking place. Street parking fees suck, but in an ok old neighborhood. I'm gonna go back for sure.
Organized, clean, nice staff. Wish I went to more events here
Well.. I had a blast! Sofi-Tukker was there, and the staff? Just amazing!
Great ambiance, great music, great vibes, great drinks. Viva Austin real!
Great place for outdoor venue. You can see the stage from anywhere you stand outside. The restrooms are clean and there was rarely a wait. Parking was the usual on the street. Multiple bars outside make it easy to get drinks. Highly recommend and will go back for sure
Austin is lucky to have such a fantastic place. I saw Low Cut Connie during SXSW in 2017 and it was amazing. I will definitely return.
Cool music venue, down to earth staff and diverse acts make it a standout.
Spoiled by listening rooms so very unhappy with their live music show. More than half of people here to visit so music has to be extra loud and still cant compete with loud talkers.. Cool looking place and probably fun if you didnt pay to enjoy the band. Dont forget raincoat as no covered seating
The folks at Scoot Inn have really classed the place up recently, but maintained the historic charm of the space. If you go on a normal night there's usually not a lot going on, but they do have their own locals that For me, Scoot Inn is a favorite place to go see live music in Austin because of the multi-level deck for easy viewing and the great audio quality I've come to expect. I've been going for years, but it's time to write a review because of the super professional way that the Lagunitas / Independence Brewing event was handled at Scoot Inn. Thanks for creating realistic expectations to those waiting in line, and making sure the event was fun and safe for everyone.
Great venue right next to the tram. Big outdoor space with a bar, and awesome shows. I've been here twice, and will be back again.
Great place for live acts! Saw Watsky here and had a great spot wherever I stood!
A little bit of a walk, even from parts of East Austin, but this is a pretty good venue for shows. Decent sound on the occasion I was there. Lots of places to wander about if you need to take a break or make a call. Have been to far worse in Austin, so jump on a pedicab or hoof it to Scoot for that show.
Trl trivia night! Loved it! Hope they continue trivia night there
Baby, it's cold outside! It was windy and very cold, but the warmth permeating from the face melting music of Black Pistol Fire kept the crowd fully enaged.
Never had a bad experience seeing a show here. Easy access to the bars, good views of the stage from most anywhere, it's a fun place to catch some live music.
Such a great concert venue! There isn't a bad view in the whole place. The sound is great. The lighting is warm and inviting.
Great sounds and vibes there! Can get close or chill in back with the other cool kids. This pic is from the Devotchka show.
Great venue for live music and they have a very friendly staff! Will be back!
I saw Roky Erickson here during South By 2017. It was pretty cool, he played two headed dog, and cold night for alligators.
Friendly bartenders, nice variety of beers, &, best of all, Arlio's vegan burgers food truck right outside the door!
This is a nice outdoor venue for watching live music. It's small enough that even if you are at the very back you are still close enough to have a great view but big enough to accommodate a good number of people. The sound is very good anywhere you stand. Drink prices are reasonable. I won't hesitate to watch future shows here as long as the weather is decent.
Cool little venue, think Stubb's but smaller and more intimate. Good drink specials prior to the show and readonable pricing even during the show.
The entire city has completely changed around this place in the past few decades, but Scoot Inn still has that "Heart and Soul" original Austin charm. Not many Austin music venues can say they've been around since the 1970's; Scoot Inn has been doing it since the 1870's (although most of the staff has changed). ;-)
This place is a small venue, but has an awesome backyard with a huge stage, lights, picnic tables, and a relaxed vibe. Somewhat of a "hole in the wall" feel in the bar itself, but that just adds to the experience. I've seen some great bands at this venue, and was pleasantly surprised with how the patrons jumped in and enjoyed the show (dancing and rocking along with the bands). Really fun, and the extra bonus is avoiding the stupid parking expenses of going out downtown!
Scoot Inn is fun place to grab some drinks and go see some live music. They also have a good food truck outside. There is skee ball inside!
The outdoor venue is cozy and makes for an intimate concert experience!
It was here I discovered my missed calling of skeeball and conquered the record for the night! Unfortunately this was probably my most athletic moment of my life this far....Their buttery nipple is a nice sweet shot and their cocktails aren't too shabby! nice dive that feels hidden away but definitely worth a visit! Feels very historic, just like its name with old photo booths and antique decorations.
Great for live music. You can get drinks with ok service but there's lots of space to listen to music.
Awesome outdoor venue in Austin. Sound was great although the night I was there seemed like they weren't cranking up the volume to where you'd expect their speakers to be cranked too. Probably a noise ordinance thing.. Would definitely see another show here.
Didn't even get to make it in. I was throwing up across the street and when we got to the entry they denied me access. I didn't even get a refund for the pre purchased ticket to see a band. We had to walk from our downtown hotel through a VERY SHADY neighborhood that this place is in just to get barred. Ugh......
There is a food truck on site and its food was mediocre. The service was slow but there was a big crowd. By the time I got my food it was cold which did not make sense if it was just prepared. I had the PB Hummus wrap, was an interesting combo but tasted good together. Inside there is a photobooth and skeeball. The bar has a decent selection of beer on tap and in bottles. Outside there is a huge space out back with frisbees and Jenga blocks and stage for live music.
Great music venue with fun atmosphere - they even have skeeball! :) The service was great too. We went on a night with music so I'm not sure if that effected the drink pricings, but they were a little bit higher than I expected. They had an AWESOME selection of local beers though. Probably one of the best in Austin.
Great outdoor atmosphere. Went for story night and it was very entertaining.
Love this place. The venue is small enough you can enjoy the artist without having to watch a big screen.
Always a good time here. Staff if a bit rough but hey, can't really say I blame them at times.
I love scoot inn it's one of the most amazing venues! <3
A bar that feels like a dive, yet somehow cleaner. The live music venue is really nice and I prefer it over Stubbs and the like. The bathroom (portapotty) situation is a little gross, but overall great experience in booming East Austin.
Been a few times for a couple of shows. I like the setup and bar locations. Decent prices and always speedy service. Sound is decent and I like the small stage and layout of venue.
First time coming here for a concert. It was great, the venue and stage are wide enough that you can see your favorite artist and feel like you are so close! It was supposed to be a rainy day according to the forecast but it turned out great, decent food, good drinks so it was great. Just make sure you check for parking, there's one right next to the venue and it's $7 on weekdays but if it was full of cars, then you may need to walk more.
I went here to see a Magnifico concert and it was a great outdoors venue.
Outdoor venue with a large stage and plenty of standing area.
Great venue for being outside! Bands sound great when playing out here!
Smallish outdoor venue with accessible bars. Small enough for a great view.
Great venue to see live acts. We saw The Strumbellas there and had an amazing time!
Pretty nice little place. Bartender was really nice and made drinks fast. Skeet ball was a fun bonus. It's a fun place to hang out for a little bit. When my wife and I went, it was a week day and there wasn't to many people. I'm sure the weekends here would be a blast. I'm not sure about the food. We ordered some but never got to eat it. We were to busy drinking and talking. It's a fun start for the night, place.
Awesome venue..a dying breed..keep up the fight to keep Austin atleast a shadow of what we used to be..
Staff was very friendly and drinks were good. We may have gone on a slow Saturday night but the place was almost empty. Hopefully more people realize how awesome this place is.
Good concert venue with a large yard. No complaints - great place to see anyone play.
An amazing venue, super friendly staff and lots of room to boogie
Amazing spot for a medium sized concert with plenty of room to grab beers. Outside venue so be aware of the weather pending the time of the year.
The Knocks! Great show! I like that this venue is promoting bigger artists.
Very inviting space with old school charm and a great bar selection. We went on a Wednesday for the lounge pianist who does cool and unusual song selections for a lounge act (ie. Radiohead, Queens of the Stone Age etc.) The bar area provides a view of the pianist as does the couch seating provided in the piano lounge room itself. There is also a third room, tucked out of site for those who are not there for the music (there was a group playing cards in this room without disrupting the pianist).
Great live venue. Offers an intimate viewing experience when seeing your favorite bands play.
Beautiful inside and the outdoor back area it's huge and awesome
Small place but awesome environment and put of a good show.
This place from my experience has been everything good about Austin, always.
It's a nice place service is good and people are friendly either I would like to go back again
Historic dive bar fun. Great patio/live stage 'yard' with lounge. Bar staff are very good.
Great view from anywhere, especially the beer line.
They've made a ton of improvements and it's really turned into a great place for live music. It's a relatively small venue with great acts and easy viewing.
The feel of old Austin ! Nice outdoor stage area, and a cool bar inside too.... Great place to catch a show, a venue worthy of a sole cause to go out. I've always had a blast attending shows here.
