Inspired by marinas and bait shops in rural Texas.

Handsome Dan’s is 50% bar and 50% bodega. Beer, sandwiches, THC on tap —a place to get what you can’t find. An East Austin original.

Where anything flies and everyone’s welcome.

Welcome to Handsome Dan's, where cold beer meets good times. Housed in an old food distribution warehouse in East Austin, we're part brewery, part sandwich shop, and full-time neighborhood hangout. Pull up a barstool, grab a cold one, and stay awhile.

Since Forever

Our space honors the unpretentious spirit of traditional bait shops while serving up some of Austin's finest brews. No fuss, no frills - just high-quality everything served in a place where you can truly be yourself. Our taps are flowing, our sandwiches hit the spot, and our shelves are stocked with all the provisions you need. Dan wouldn't have it any other way.

Patio Hangs

The perfect East Austin spot to while away an afternoon with good beer and better company.

House-Made Bevvies

From classic lagers to hop water, brewed right here in East Austin.

Quality Sandwiches

Made fresh daily, stacked high, and served without pretense.

Who is Dan?

Handsome Dan is that high school football coach everyone wanted to be around. The kind of guy who drives a truck but owns multiple suits. Hits the weight room a few times a week, stays fit as a fiddle, and has a smokin' hot spouse.
