Dart Bowl: An Old-School Bowling Alley in North Austin

October 16, 2013 by

Have a blast from the past at Dart Bowl, an old-school bowling alley with trow back pricing for a fun evening out that’s easy on the wallet.  Conveniently located in Austin’s Brentwood neighborhood, Dart Bowl has 32 well-maintained lanes that accurately keep score and rarely malfunction. If you work up an appetite bowling, the restaurant is famous for their enchiladas and homemade Texas toast – try them topped with a fried egg.  The bar has a good selection of beer at reasonable prices, and if you’re looking for a Big Lebowski-inspired evening, the full bar offers well-crafted White Russians.

Get Down and In Tune at Austin’s Hi Tunes Karaoke

September 3, 2013 by

Hi Tunes Karaoke could be Austin’s favorite Karaoke club – there are many reasons why regulars love to sing-along here. At the top of the list are the private rooms that let you party with your friends and avoid gawking if you can’t carry a tune. The rooms also rent by the hour, rather than per person (a 6 person room is $20) and come with multiple wireless mics to make duets easy. They're comfy and the equipment is well-maintained for a high quality sound. If you love global pop music, you’ll appreciate the vast song selection, which includes options in English, Spanish, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. The staff is friendly and regulars rave about the excellent customer services at Hi Tunes. Another reason that Hi Tunes is a favorite for karaoke lovers is the late hours, 5 a.m. on weekends. Planning a visit? Make a reservation to ensure you've got a space.
