    Everything about it is amazing. Love the pizza, burgers, fries. The crowd and the fully stocked bar with great eye candy. Fair service. Outdoor seating as well.

    Cool set-up, make sure you order a Margarita and take a picture on top of the Jackalope - cheers! Plus, they let me charge my powerbank in one of their electrical sockets. #ynottravel

    Chicken strips and waffle fries. It's a ginormous basket of waffle fries and won't disappoint!

    The Jackalope is in the heart of downtown Austin, and is a staple for Austinites. Wednesday's are half price bugers, and Tuesday's their gigantic pizza's are half off. Read more

    The outside TV's play Asian horror movies. Great for a first date or when your grandparents come in town!

    The area up the stairs and out the back is a great spot for a late-night beer. They normally have pretty great horror movies playing above the bar, too.

    The Jackalope has great food and drinks mixed with a little attitude. On Wednesdays grab a burger buddy and get 2 for the price of 1. Their waffle fries are great.

    The music and the guy who brought my food were awsome. I tipped the bartender for my food order and drink fairly well. I never got a thank you hello screw you or asked if we needed anything.

    The Chipolte Bacon burger was juicy and it is huge I shred it. The waffle fries are tasty but the music is very loud and for me the beer selection was lacking.

    Get a pizza half-off on Tuesdays, or two burgers for the price of one on Wednesdays. If you can't eat for free, at least eat cheap!

    If you want to grab some food before drinking than this is the spot downtown. Grab a pizza, play a round of pool, then drink without getting fucked up.
