Your Guide To The Best Halloween Bars In Austin
Every year during the Halloween season (aka September and October) a few bars in Austin feature a pop-up Halloween theme. They’re so much fun! You can show up in spooky attire (or just your regular clothes) and sip on themed cocktails with fake eyeballs and smoke coming out of them and snap some pictures and videos of the amazing halloween decor.

Dumont’s Down Low
Dumont’s Down Low, a popular bar in the heart of the Warehouse District, always wins in the holiday pop-up bar arena. (Their Christmas display is really fun, too!) They have a haunted basement whiskey bar set for October, and it's a classy and spooky place to imbibe on seasonal drinks.
Expect skeletons in the ceiling, special Halloween cocktails, and other events. {Photo: Dumont’s Down Low facebook}

Lucille Patio Lounge
Lucille’s is a spooky place, to begin with. Back in 1920, Lucille hosted fabulous parties in this little Rainey Street bungalow. Rumor has it that at one of her parties she met a handsome stranger, talked, danced, and then…disappeared. And for 77 years the house sat empty.
Now that it’s a popular Rainey Street bar, it’s a fun place to visit at any time of the year, but during the month of October it’s especially popular for their Halloween pop up decor and drinks. It varies from year to year; 2023 is "A Rainey Street Horror Story." {Photo: Lauren F, Yelp}
