Best HH spot downtown for a large group?
Sorry I've been MIA lately. My new position at work is eating my lunch! Anyways, I am turning 30 at the end of this month and have yet to plan a thing. My husband has good intentions, but if I leave it up to him, he'll send something out a few hours before 
I was thinking a downtown HH venue would be fun. My social friends all live in North Austin, and my work friends live in South Austin. So, hopefully this will be a good compromise. I would imagine that around 30 people will show. Any suggestions on a place downtown that will reserve space for that many people and has good food and drink?
I was thinking 219 West, but not sure the 'vibe' in that place these days. I went about a year ago and it seemed cool enough, but I don't want anything stuffy or too fancy. I'm a jeans kinda girl.
Thanks so much!
Re: Best HH spot downtown for a large group?
I used to work on 6th and we would get drinks at the Belmont after work. Huge patio with tables that are easy to push together.
Ginger Man has a great outdoor area. Also, Cedar Street Courtyard (I don't know if they do HH, but it's a good open area).
It may be a little too south, but Boticelli's on South Congress has a really cool patio where I would put something like that.
I guess I'm only thinking of outdoor spaces for some reason. Huh...
I'm "meh" on 219West for a group that big. I was in there Sat night and it was so damn loud. They have really poor acoustics, mixed w/ loud music.
