Tips from the community
At Midnight Cowboy, you'll find hand-crafted cocktails made by some of Austin's best bartenders in a former brothel, which still maintains its original name and website. Reservations are highly recommended, or keep an eye out for the light above the door to see if they're open for walk-ins. Once inside, press the "Harry Craddock" buzzer to be ushered into the dimly lit, intimate space and take a seat in one of the black booths for a classic cocktail. Don't miss their seasonal specials or supernatural punch bowls, which are perfect for sharing with friends. Midnight Cowboy is hidden in plain sight on East 6th Street, marked by a discreet sign that reads "Midnight Cowboy Modeling."
