Your A-List: Best Singles Hangout
The winner of the A-List vote for best singles hangout is a laid-back joint that doubles as a sports bar and an after-game gathering spot for Austin’s amateur athletic teams. Usually open to the elevated sidewalk, Lavaca Street Bar grabbed a full 34 percent of the tally.
Dark, velvety, cosmopolitan Red Fez came in second with 26 percent, while gay newcomer Kiss & Fly raced ahead of its more-established compatriots with 25 percent. (And may I beg the critics of this huge club to restrain from libelous accusations in the commentary block of this blog? I can’t print unsubstantiated rumors of illegality. You may hate the club. Or hate the manager. Or hate the owner. But respect libel laws.)
The swank Belmont secured a distant fourth place with 4 percent, followed by Gingerman (2 percent) and Union Park, Brown Bar, Six, Star Bar, Beauty Bar, Apple Bar (all around 1 percent). Ironic Peacock Lounge came in last, with much less than 1 percent of the vote.
