About the Venue

Golden Hour is a destination Texas-style barbecue joint on the ground floor of a 1914 downtown building. Pitmaster Fletcher, a Georgetown, Texas native, smokes brisket, ribs and house-made sausage over Texas post oak. Next to the restaurant, a banquet hall with its own bar hosts live music, comedy and private events.

Vibe

Laid-back and social, Sandhills hospitality with a Texas twist. Expect to stand in line with a cold Texas beer, eat at shared tables, and stick around for a show. Artifacts from the building's past give the room real history.
