Football season is back — and we’re donning our burnt orange until further notice.
If you’re hitting the town on Saturdays to cheer on the Longhorns, here are some food and drink specials you won’t want to miss.
The Long Goodbye | If you’d rather watch the game from a big screen, head to this bar on Manor Road for free snacks (while supplies last) and all-day drink specials like $18 buckets of beer + canned cocktails and $10 game day cocktails and frozens.
Swim Club | When the Longhorns play at home, local influencer @atasteofkoko will host Club Koko tailgates on The Lawn at Swim Club. Chefs will join to serve up special bites, and attendees can sip beverages like the “Club Koko Frozen Still Austin Gin Cocktail” and the “Longhorn Lemonade.”
Skinny’s Off Track Bar | Bring your pup to watch the game at this sports bar offering $10 mimosa buckets and $15 beer buckets on UT game days.

TLC Austin | Big Tex College Football Tailgate watch parties include a game day food menu (which sports a “40 Acres” seafood boil) and drinks like the “Bevo’s Burnt Orange Rita.”
Haymaker | Head over to this bar’s Instagram to find its weekly game day specials, which have included $10 breakfast plates, $3 Jell-O shots, and $4 well drinks.
