Professional experienceThe Dog & Duck Pub - A cherished Austin Institution
Since its establishment in the late 1990s, the Dog & Duck Pub has established itself as a beloved institution in Austin, Texas. Originally located near the campus area, this campus favorite watering hole has recently undergone exciting changes and is now open in East Austin.
Former patrons will be thrilled to know that the Dog & Duck Pub has been brought back to life in a vibrant new location. Situated in the heart of East Austin, this iconic pub aims to recreate the same lively atmosphere and community spirit that made it so popular in its original setting.
In recent years, the Dog & Duck Pub unfortunately encountered a brief closure. However, the pub's loyal following was eagerly anticipating its return. On November 3, 2017, news circulated that the original East Austin location had closed its doors on Webberville Road, leaving many patrons nostalgic for the good times they had shared within its walls.
But fear not, in its place emerged a new bar created by the talented alumni of popular Austin establishments such as Shangri-La and The Backspace. Chadwick Leger and Rachelle, visionaries in the local bar scene, have taken up the task of reviving the Dog & Duck Pub. Their dedication to creating memorable, authentic experiences guarantees that the spirit of the original pub will live on in its new incarnation.
What sets the Dog & Duck Pub apart is not just its storied past but also its commitment to excellence. As a testament to this, the pub owners commissioned a stunning limestone fountain from the renowned Kincannons. This eight-hundred-pound sculpture serves as a majestic centerpiece, spouting refreshing water and capturing the essence of Austin's vibrant culture.
The reopening of the Dog & Duck Pub in East Austin has been met with excitement and anticipation from both longstanding fans and newcomers to the area.
