The wall behind decoration are a mix of traditional Texas artifacts and modern art, the combination looks great! My favorite part in the place is the long wood bar. Behind it, Ruben, the bar tender.

“ Reuben really is the best bartender! Great place, great atmosphere. We don’t live here but will make sure to come by on our next trip. ”
“ The Pearl---just 23 miles from South Austin---is worth a visit to Lockhart all by itself. It's an atmospheric blues bar with home-on-the-range decor and the friendliest bartender you'll ever meet. Try Reuben's craft cocktail with his homemade lavender syrup. All the drinks at affordable prices. We got to hear Austin blues legend W C Clark, who plays there often. This is a very special place. ”
“ So Baby & I, yesterday, Sat, decided to go to Lockhart for cocktails & dinner after shopping at the Outlet Malls in San Marcos. We've been to Lockhart before, going to The Pearl Bar (cocktails) & the Little Trouble Restaurant (dinner) right next door We looked forward to seeing the preeminate bartender, Ruben Brooks, there. Ruben is a tremendous asset for both the Pearl Bar & the City of Lockhart! We enjoyed tremendously watching him make our delicious cocktails, listening to the many stories he told about the historic Pearl Bar & the City of Lockhart. He's just an absolute gentleman and a master of his craft! Baby & I look forward to many returns to the Pearl and being entertained & enthralled with Reuben's command of the Bartendering Craft! Ladies & Gentlemen, it's well worth the drive from whereever you're at to make the acquaintance of Ruben Brooks, you rock my man!! See you again soon! ”
