Son and future daughter in law are getting married in Austin. They live a few hrs away. They haven't had any luck finding a place for a rehearsal dinner. They would like to have a dinner for about 30 people, then would like to invite everyone else to come for a few drinks. Looking for informal bar type place. The places they have found wanted at least a minimum of 1400 in drinks for the get together after the rehearsal dinner, which is a bit steep. Any suggestions. We thought locals would have a better idea.

there are a few places that dont charge a minimum for certain areas - or at least they used to not. it will be tough. but try star bar downtown, glorias downtown, blackfinn at the domain, la mancha on hancock.

Don't know about cost but our daughters was held on a Lake Austin boat cruise with catered food and drinks. It was very memorable with about 40 guests.

i'm not sure if Threadgills does this anymore, but they have a private room out behind their North Austin location. I've attended rehearsal dinners there but it's been awhile. Very Austin-y.

... Well, they maybe a little 'outside' the area where you are looking ... My best friend and his DW own a Texas dancehall & restaurant that includes a party facility, in Granger, TX.
Information about the facility and what's offered there can be found here ...
Let them know that "tomchard" sent y'all, too!

What part of town would you like to be in? Do you want it to be near the actual rehearsal?

We had our son's rehearsal dinner at North By Northwest- had about 40 people and they had a perfect room and we also used the patio off of the room-we handled it all from Dallas via phone & email and it all went smooth and the food was great.

I went to a party at Punch Bowl Social in the domain and it was very cool. No idea on min spend, but lots to do, good food/drink, and it was fun!
