"Nothing says “it’s Saturday” quite like Little Darlin’s michelada—made up of a draft beer with a Bloody Mary ice pop. It’s a fun and tasty way to start the weekend, and a great accompaniment to fried chicken and waffles, farmstand frittatas, and french toast off Little Darlin’s brunch menu. This is one of the best bars in Austin, and when the weather is nice, it’s one of the best patios to be on, too. Throw in a solid brunch menu and it’s one of the best places to spend a weekend." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion, matthew jacobs
