About
Pete's is a Rock & Roll Dueling Piano Bar. If singing as loud as possible in a crowd is not for you sit at the back of the room. If you can't take a joke sit at the back of the room. If you are ready to clap, sing and scream come grab a seat on the front row and put your song requests on the piano! We are open 7 nights a week and our performers will amaze you.

    Great venue
    Loved the music and patter and spent the whole evening here. Many of the music venues in Austin felt very much aimed a a very John’s crowd whereas this was much more mixed with young up through the decades. You are only likely to get a request paid if you pay. We would go back.

    Great Fun
    We hit Pete’s on a Wednesday night since we are getting older….still had a great time. Tons of fun and the piano players (all four of them) were a blast. Great sing along as they play all types of music and literally (and prefer) play every request given to them. Would go again in a heartbeat.

    So entertaining we went twice!
    This bar is on 6th street along with many others. We did not make a reservation either night. The first night we got there late, about 10:00 p.m., so we got lucky and found a table. The next night was Friday, and we got there right when they opened, around 7:00 I think. All tables were reserved, but we were early so we found a spot on the bleachers. The musicians are really good, and fun, and funny! The drinks are pretty good and service is real good. They do not serve food, so bring your own or eat before you arrive. They played a huge variety of music, something for everyone! Bring a few extra bucks because they will play your song request soon if it’s attached to some bills 😁

    PIANO PARTY AT PETE'S!
    This place was an absolute laugh! We went the day before thanksgiving, so it was pretty quiet, but still had a decent crowd. The guys at the piano were so talented, how they can just perform off the cuff to any of the requests. However, my boyfriend and I unfortunately had a major error. We in Austin on holiday, which means we had a load of dollar notes on us, so we decided, to request a song.. The guy at the piano, said "somebody's a big baller in here, this request definitely has to go to the top of the list, they've given $100". After they started playing our song, we looked at each other in absolute disbelief and panic as we'd realised we had given the $100 note, not the $10 note. We found the funny side and couldn't stop laughing, probably the most expensive song we've ever requested. We actually got engaged on this trip so now that song will have to be part of our wedding to get the moneys worth! haha. I've given 4 stars because at the beginning there was a mouse on the loose (which was caught) and the fact we lost $100! but I would actually return here despite all this and would definitely recommend!

I had two drinks, bothered no one and they refused to serve me anything but water. I had bothered no one but they refused me service. Most humiliating experience ever. I went to the Austin Hilton and they treated me with respect. Worst experience of my life and also humiliating. I will never return even though the music was great:

Went on a Saturday Night! Very crowded and a $15 cover to get in. Vodka cranberry was $13 but we had a very nice waitress that paid attention. Which was awesome.

We visited Pete's on Friday 1/20 while on a quick trip to Austin. It was the most fun we've had in a long time. The songs that were played ranged from pop to rock to country and so many others. There wasn't a song they couldn't do I don't believe. I even heard a little Snoop played on the piano. And the bartenders are very attentive! Remember to reserve a table to ensure you get one. This place filled up fast. But never felt over crowded. If you're in Austin, it's a must do!

Be prepared to pay if you want your song sung! We went on a Friday night, cover at the door of $15... found a table on the balcony and put in a song request but they wouldn't even take it until I put cash with it.
The pianists were great, atmosphere was fun. Don't get the fish bowl unless you really want the duck and like sugar 😏

A group of us went the night after my nephew's wedding - ages between 25 and 70 and we all had a blast. If you want a table get there early. We arrived around 7:45 and that was perfect - only a handful of people were there. After an hour it was standing room only. These guys are really talented; you'll have a great time.
