With the openings of all the new restaurants in the Lake Travis area, Oasthouse Gastropub will have a good chance of making it on your list as one of the newest local favorites.

Oasthouse Gastropub serves up locally sourced, melt-in-your-mouth, upscale pub food. As soon as you walk up to the joint, you’ll be greeted by warm smiles and clean cut staff members.

The aesthetic details of the restaurant are designed tastefully chic — welcoming, cozy, and elegant. You will take notice of the re-purposed wood tables and Edison light bulbs floating above the dining floor. The view through a wall of glass allows you to see all of the action taking place in the kitchen.
