At Culinary Dropout, raise your glass to friends coming together. A place where food and music are life. Join us at happy hour for ice cold beer and our famous soft pretzels with provolone fondue. At dinner, a signature cocktail and slow braised 36-hour pork ribs are a perfect pair. While you and your crew enjoy damn good food and drinks, a local band plays live for great vibes. Come hang out and stay a while.

    I’m so disappointed at the price increase on their entire menu. I’ve never seen such sticker shock while looking at a menu at things I’ve been ordering for years! I’ve been coming here for years and now it’s likely time I move on to something that has better value. Too bad because I like their food and always brought visitors here. Disappointed.

    It was our first experience at Culinary Dropout. The menu & drink selections were great! We were seated right by the music for the night. It was superb! The level of noise was just perfect! We would definitely stop back if we are in the area!

    Apps and drinks are amazing! They have a great dog friendly set up but sadly the main brunch corse meals were sub par.
    Culinary Dropout - AustinResponded on 17 February 2025
    Hi Bianca, Thank you for your recommendation and we appreciate the shout out for our drinks! I am sorry to hear the brunch main courses were not a hit quite like the apps for you. I would love to learn more about your experience as a whole so we can continue coaching and developing our staff to ensure we are providing the best quality and flavor possible. I am available at the restaurant at (512) 777-3394 and would love the chance to connect! Thanks again! Starla Queen
