Owner-run since 2018 — 2 hr 15 min through downtown, 2–3 bar stops. You bring the drinks; the cooler and sound system are already on the bike.
Most party bikes are franchises — somebody in another state owns the bike, and a driver they hired last month takes you out. Mine isn’t. I bought this bike, I maintain it, and I’ve been running it myself since 2018 — 1,098 rides and counting. When you call or text 512-525-5221, it’s my phone that rings — before your ride, during it, and at 11 p.m. when your headcount changes.
Eight years of driving the same downtown streets means I know which stops are worth it and which corner the good photos happen on. You get all of that with the bike.

“We booked Austin Bar Bike for a birthday, and it ended up being the highlight of our weekend. Matt was an awesome host — friendly, laid back, and knew exactly how to make sure everyone had a great time… we had 20+ minutes at each bar… We got off the bike on West 6th and closed it down!”
“Without a doubt one of the most fun experiences I have ever had in this city. We booked it for a bachelorette party and it exceeded every single expectation… We stopped at some great bars… the whole group was laughing and singing the entire time… an absolute must. We are already talking about doing it again.”
“This was an absolute fun event for my team after hours in downtown Austin. The playlist was great and the drinks were flowing!”
Austin Bar Bike is owner-operated and has been rolling through downtown for 8+ years and thousands of happy riders. Book with us and you're supporting a local Austin small business — and you'll probably get greeted by name. That's something the big national chains just can't do.
We run downtown Austin party bike tours and BYOB pub crawls through 6th Street, West 6th, and the 4th Street bar district — the easiest way to do a bachelorette party, birthday, or corporate night out on wheels. You might hear it called a pedal pub, pedal tavern, beer bike, or cycle pub — ours is the fully electric one, so there is zero pedaling. Just you, up to 15 of your favorite people, and one party bike rolling through downtown.
Same idea, upgraded. You might know the concept as a pedal pub, pedal tavern, beer bike, or cycle pub — Austin Bar Bike is the fully electric version, so there is zero pedaling. You just hop on, BYOB, and enjoy the ride through downtown Austin.
Three things: we're fully electric so there's no pedaling (most others make you pedal), we're locally owned and operated (not a national franchise), and from $325 for the whole bike we're one of the best-value party bikes in Austin. Same downtown route and BYOB fun — better ride.
Just ice, your drinks (BYOB — cans & plastic, no glass or hard liquor), and a playlist. We provide the cooler and the sound system.
2 hours and 15 minutes, with 2–3 bar stops of about 25 minutes each. Need a custom time? Call 512-525-5221.
