There's no shortage of great bars near UT and around the city, but some are just known for attracting Longhorns.

1. Cain & Abel's

2313 Rio Grande St.

With its West Campus location, packed dollar beer night on Tuesdays and killer Texas Teas, Cain & Abel's tops the chart.

2. Hole in the Wall

2538 Guadalupe St.

For more than 40 years, Longhorns have been visiting Hole in the Wall, one of West Campus' most classic bars. It's a little funky, often featuring live music and far-out delicious food. With its chill atmosphere, it's the perfect place to unwind.

3. Cactus Cafe

2247 Guadalupe St. (Inside the Union.)

This drinking oasis located conveniently on campus gives patrons a mellow scene during the day and a more rocking one at night, featuring many local artists. It's got a rich history spanning more than 35 years, and although efforts have been made to close it, pushback from patrons always stops them. It's just that loved.

4. Austin's Pizza

2324 Guadalupe St.

With amazing pizza available 24 hours a day and cheap drinks, this West Campus staple easily makes the list. Hit up Austin's Pizza for a more mellow dollar beer night on Tuesdays if you can't take the noise at Cain's.

5. Blind Pig Pub

317 East Sixth St.

When you ask Longhorns what their favorite Sixth Street bar is, at least half the time you'll hear Blind Pig Pub. The bar is bouncing any night of the week, often features good cover bands, has a rooftop dance floor and PLAYS GOOD SONGS. If you want to escape the EDM that's overtaken Sixth with some modern party classics, this is the bar for you.

6. The Aquarium on Sixth

403 East Sixth St.

You'll find this bar packed with Longhorns on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. It's got good people, good drinks, beer pong tables and plenty of room for dancing or just hanging out.

7. The Library

407 East Sixth St.

Maybe it's the studious nature of UT students that makes them flock to this interestingly-named bar on the weekends.

8. Buckshot

422 East Sixth St.

Quickly grabbing the attention of UT students after its opening several years ago, Buckshot has become a Longhorn downtown staple. Its big space and expansive menu really make it a good time.

9. Cheers

416 East Sixth St.

No one thinks of the TV show when you mention Cheers around UT students. With shots like "Sex With an Alligator," "Mind Eraser" and "Surfer on Acid," how could you go wrong?

10. Shakespeare's Pub

314 East Sixth St.

Even among English majors, UT students are more likely to think of the bar than the great playwright when you mention the name. Shakespeare's is known for its $5 pitchers of Long Island iced tea, rocking rooftop and, more recently, basement dance floor. This list wouldn't be complete without it.
