Back Spin Texas Bar and Grill Austin (SW Austin)
Just saw the sign today, this is going into the old Starbucks location at the East corner of Slaughter and Mopac. I can't find any information on it, anyone know anything about it? It's a rather small space, it did house a Starbucks.

It's was next to Taco Bueno in the shopping center. It closed when Starbucks closed a bunch of their stores, probably more than 6 months ago.

It looks more like a hotel bar than a sports bar. I live in the neighborhood so I will check it out. I hope it is more fun than it looks. It looks really sterile |
