Foxy's Proper Pub - Austin

Great last-minute find. Awesome environment and the place had plenty of room to wonder

My son and I came from out of town. I'm very laid back I'm not a snob service was horrible ... pink haired waitress ... did not seat us ... I had to ask the bartender where to sit. when she came over .... we ordered a coke with a lemon. and a water. she informed us that the water is self serv. no problem. when she returned with the coke no lemon ... she took our order. then asked if I wanted to close out. I said no. then asked if I would mind she took my card out it into the machine and then haned it back with options to tip. starting at 20% and going up. we had not gotten our food yet. I said this is weird. of course we never saw her again. 20% for what. this has never happened to me. this is a terrible way to serve people. it's too bad bc the food was good. I'll never go back and I wi tell anyone ekse not to go here

Vibes are good. Service slow and “don’t care”. Beer is good, but only one Irish beer, Guinness, this is an Irish pub??? Food was terrible.

Atmosphere was good. Service was painfully slow. If I could give zero stars for service I would. More than once I had to give up on our, very unpersonable, server and get my own beer from the bar. It would be difficult for our server to be less interested in us.Our appetizer came out at the same time as our entree which was disappointing since it was good. But once the entree is served, I'm done with the apps. Bangers and mash was very average.Wife had the fish and chips which were fine, but served with a strange, sweet tartar with pecan.When I come back to Austin this place won't be on the agenda.Oh, and how strange that when we sit for dinner first thing they wanted to do was get my card to start a tab at the bar? Can't you just put it on my bill? This place is a mess.

My first night in Austin and after settling in my hotel room I headed out to this Irish style pub. Met a fellow Australian and had a few beers and a meal of Shepherds pie. Food was delicious. The girls on the bar are excellent. Must come back again.
