About

Welcome to ATX, Ya'll!

Welcome to Austin Stays Weird - your source for up-to-date information on all the best local businesses and restaurants in Austin, TX. Our mission is to provide unbiased reviews and objective ratings of local businesses that help guide you in selecting the perfect place for your needs.

We believe that it pays to shop and dine at local businesses rather than chain stores; not only do you receive better service and attention, but you are also showing your support for small business owners in Austin.

How We Help

We strive to bring you honest reviews from real customers so you can make informed decisions about which services or products best suit your needs. We take into account criteria such as quality, price point, atmosphere and customer service when reviewing each business. Drop us a line about anything Austin related!
