Happy Hour Specials
About
Most of Austin's best seafood happy hours sit downtown or on the east side, which is what makes Garbo's worth the drive up Mopac. The lobster spot at 12709 N Mopac runs happy hour Monday through Friday from 3 to 6pm, and Mondays stretch the whole thing from open to close. Wednesdays bring the move worth planning around: a dollar off every East Coast oyster, all day.
Start with the oysters. Garbo's flies them in from the East Coast, and most North Austin raw bars can't touch the quality. A buck off each one makes ordering a second dozen an easy decision, especially with a cold draft in front of you.
The crowd here comes from Scofield, Wells Branch, and the ranks of lobster roll regulars who've decided the trip is worth it. It's casual, good for families before the evening fills in, and refreshingly free of pretense. Garbo's happy hour is proof that real seafood credibility doesn't have to live downtown to earn a line out the door.
