Monkey’s Tail

Channeling the spirit of Ozomatli (that’s the monkey companion spirit to the Aztec god of music and dance, obviously) this Mexican American cocktail dive is a neighborhood staple for cool vibes. The indoor-outdoor setup is perfect for our ever-changing weather, with a dog-friendly patio on nicer days and a funky indoor space with billiards to keep you entertained during the inevitable rainstorm. There’s also an extensive draft system with 20 taps on a custom-designed tower and superlative food and bev menu. Wash down smashed Chango burgers and barbacoa pizza with a Tequila & Mexican Coke Highball or Dragon Fruit Margarita. Industry legend Lainey Collum is now the bar director, so you can expect excitement in the cocktail menu.

Head to Lindale Park to watch the SB action at this Mexican-American kitchen and dive. The laidback spot sports flatscreens, a cozy patio, excellent cocktails, and delicious stuff like Birria Tacos, Smashed Chango Burgers, and Pastor and Barbacoa Pizzas. Those pizzas, by the way, will be half-off all weekend long, starting Thursday and through Super Bowl Sunday.

Hit the pup-friendly front patio at this Mexican-American bar and kitchen over in Lindale Park, and you can enjoy Chango Burgers and Oaxacan Old Fashioneds with el perro. More great news? The fun-loving spot rolls out daily specials like Weekend Brunch, Monday Steak Night, and Tuesday Dollar Dog Night, too.
