Not a typo, but in fact a real brick-and-mortar third Third Base. Opening this July at The Grove in South Park Meadows.
I have very few experiences with Third Base OR South Park Meadows (one apiece), so perhaps I am mildly unqualified to comment. But I do know this: Austin must have the fewest sports bars per capita of any city in the entire world. Including podunk towns. The argument is often that we can’t have pro sports because we don’t have the fans because UT pretty much is pro sports, but UT plays their games on TV, so that argument can’t be true for sports bars. So it boils down to Austin needing more sports bars. And Third Base filling that void. Oh, and the only time I’ve been to the Southpark Meadows shopping center, I joined some Southies for a beer on the “patio.” In the middle of a strip mall. I don’t really get an expansive patio where the only view is of parked cars. At least I know no one is breaking into my rig?
Anyway, back to Third Base. It’s a mere 2 1/2 years old, with a location downtown and in Round Rock. Like its sister stores, the new South location features a large shaded patio (…), forty high definition LCD flat panel TVs, multiple zones of sound and a game room with pool, darts, Golden Tee and shuffleboard. True Sports Bar.
And now my friends at CrossFit Austin have another place to enjoy a post-workout beer.
Downtown: (512) 476-BASE or Round Rock: (512) 388-BASE. www.thirdbasesportsbar.com
