Neighbourhood gem
Lively
Great for creative cocktails

Expect the finest wood-fired premium cuts, craft tacos & Tex-Mex standards, fresh tortillas made in house daily, roasted oysters, and the finest smoked brisket outside of Austin. Since opning in 2015, Butchertown Hall has amassed a reputation for the finest margarita this side of San Antonio. Butchertown Hall is local restaurateur Terry Raley’s vision of modern barbeque, inspired by the Central Texas meat market culture in which he grew up, and the late 19th-century butcher shop pursuits of this very neighborhood. Making extensive use of both an open fire hearth and a custom-built high-capacity smoker, we patiently cook soulful, exciting food.

Open 7 days a week for dinner and weekend brunch. Join us in our glorious indoor or outdoor space! We also feature an expansive courtyard, complete with a list of specialty craft brews, superior margaritas and craft cocktails, and an extensive agave collection.

Took a while to get drinks and beer was lukewarm, service overall was slow. Sat by door and hostess stand where it was cold, dining room looked beautiful though. Great food and prices were what we expected

First dinner after just having moved to the area. We got the queso and the eggrolls to start. Both were amazing. We got margaritas to start which were very good. We shared the 1/2 brisket and the burger and it was so tasty! Our server was also very attentive and patient with us and gave us good, honest recommendations.

Ordered whole chicken, but it was very dry and lukewarm. I believe this was due to the chicken being smoked several days prior to being served. Even the dark meat was dry and tough. When I’m craving a smoked chicken I’ll visit Peg Leg Porker from now on.

Butchertown is our favorite place to go in Germantown. The quality control is impeccable. Over about 2-3 dozen visits from groups to date nights and everything is amazing every time. Can’t say anything negative about the menu except sometimes there is too much meat for us to finish on the Texas trio once we fill up on queso or ceviche (and margs). Burger is underrated in the area because it’s doesn’t have any frills, it’s just a really good meat and bun combo and put whatever cheese or toppings, I’ll eat it. They seem like leftover tables behind the hostess but it’s actually really fun to watch the kitchen. Free Chef’s-Table experience!

I really like for my food to be hot when it come out to the table. The bread we order was room temperature and my soup was barely warm.

Ally was a great server! She made great suggestions without hassling us to spend extra! The queso was our favorite with the brussels being a close second. The house margarita was nothing to write home about and I would definitely go with a different drink on a return visit. The burger was really good and the steak was perfectly cooked. We will return for sure! It is loud in there, but we were prepared for that.
