Waterloo Ice House

Waterloo is a family-friendly, full-service restaurant and bar with "something for everyone." Not much has changed since our opening over 40 years ago.

The first Waterloo Ice House opened its doors on Congress Avenue in 1976. A casual neighborhood gathering spot serving hot, handmade meals and ice cold b**r for an eclectic mix of Austin business people, students, artists and musicians. Waterloo Ice House still embodies that Hill Country spirit of gathering with friends and family for a cold b**r and spending time together eating, laughing and talking. Not only the perfect dining destination, Waterloo Ice House has also become a legendary live music venue, giving artists like Lyle Lovett and Uncle Walt's Band their start.

Bone-chilling prices, no tricks attached.

October Thursdays hit a little differently. We are serving up $1 wings all night across every Waterloo location. Trade a dollar for a wing, take it down to the bone, and repeat as needed.

Grab a table and bring your appetite!

Race weekend brings a different kind of speed to Austin, but every driver needs a pit stop. 🏎️

Whether you are heading out to COTA, escaping the track traffic, or just looking to refuel with real food and a cold drink, we have your course mapped out. From warm queso to cold pints, Waterloo is your race weekend checkpoint.

Swing by before the green flag drops or unwind with us after the engines cool down!
