Welcome to Sahara Lounge, an Eastside Austin Texas multicultural nightclub with a relaxed atmosphere. Music genres offered include blues, rock, world music, Brazilian, West African, reggae, r&b, soul, and poetry nights. Formerly TC's Lounge, the building and decor have a rich vintage vibe mixing Texan with African. The club also has billiards, games, a smoking patio and free parking!
Try the Sahara Slant, our house cocktail featuring an infusion of African spices, rum and ginger brew. And, as an added bonus - the Sahara Smokehouse restaurant trailer has delicious food and offers catering.
