The Flying Saucer - Austin, TX - Takeout / Delivery Menus on Waymarking.com

This is unique in QDV's experience: As someone who has visited every Flying Saucer location, this is the first time I've encountered a take-out menu. One usually goes to a draughthouse for beer, and food is secondary. Then again, this is Austin, where one will see plenty of "Keep Austin Weird" bumper stickers.

Get your takeout food, but consider spending more time here:

Hours:

Monday - Thursday: 11 AM - 1 AM
Friday - Saturday: 11 AM - 2 AM
Sunday: 12 PM- 12 PM

The point of the exercise is fine beer, and the Flying Saucer does it well, with a good number of beers on tap (with regular rotators on cask), and plenty in the bottle. There is a small selection of wines if beer isn't your thing, as well as a limited bar (best used for brew fusions). Seating is at the bar or at one of the tables or booths, with more comfy chairs and couches than the other Flying Saucer locations. There is a good-sized patio, some of it covered, and dogs are welcome there as long as they're leashed. Smoking is outdoors only.

Sundays are $3 Texas brewery pint nights, Mondays are $3 pints for most everything on draft that isn't high octane. Wednesdays are brewery nights, where you purchase that night's beer in a glass provided by the brewery, and sometimes, the brewery's representative will be on hand. Thursdays feature the tapping of some kind of tasty rare beer.

The food menu changes every so often. Gone are the wraps and the limited choices in pizza, as you can now select your own toppings, and there are plenty of pub grub sandwiches, burgers, and salads. Beer and food menus are always online at their website.

They do offer free WiFi service, and all you need to do is ask for the password.

You will see a large number of personalized plates along the wall and ceiling. This is your payoff for joining the UFO club, in which you pay for a shirt and a card that you run through their computer every time you visit any FS location. You can log up to three beers a day, and once you hit 200, they'll have a party for you and put your name on a plate on the wall/ceiling. Depending on how many times you go through the Ring of Honor, you may get a bigger party (in terms of $$$) or a prize like a shirt, a stein, or even a trip to GABF (at ten times through). You'll also get rewards at 50, 100, and 150 beers, something of a carrot to keep you moving along.

There are semi-regular beer tastings, where the representative from a given brewery comes in and pairs their beers with a variety of foods, and there are also festivals for beer tasting (visit a themed beer tent, get your card punched), Oktoberfest, and anything else on the minds of the folks at corporate.

They are not "child-unfriendly," but this is a bar, not a restaurant, so there are no booster seats or high chairs. Note that, after 9 PM, the age limit is 21 and over only, and minors must be accompanied by a parent.
