Gruene Hall – Texas’ Oldest Dance Hall

Built in the 1880s, Gruene Hall (pronounced “Green”) is known for bringing in great country musicians. Willie Nelson, Lyle Lovett. They all come here.

There is live music seven days a week, and you’ll always find someone on the large dance floor. They have a music calendar on their web site.

The tables are long rows of picnic benches. It’s easy to talk to people sitting near you. Mixed between younger folk and old timers, you’ll find locals and lots of tourists wearing their brand new boots. By the end of the night, most people are exhausted and their boots are off because of the blisters from doing the jitterbug.

Don’t miss this place when in New Braunfels

Easy to miss, hard to forget.

The Uptown Piano Bar is located underneath the 108 year old Prince Solms Inn in downtown New Braunfels. Yes, it is in the cellar of the oldest continuously running Inn in the state of Texas.  If you’re not looking closely from the street, it can be hard to spot.  There is also a great courtyard at ground level.

This has become a favorite spot of ours when visiting New Braunfels.  Very relaxing and comfortable, in a dark, glowy setting with rich mood lighting throughout.   The artwork is really interesting, and it just creates a very cozy setting.   Ultra Magazine called this place “the most romantic spot in Texas.”  I’d have to agree.

And of course, being a piano bar, musicians glady take requests as they play and sing a wide range of songs.  Be sure to make time in your evening for a trip to the Uptown Piano Bar.
