Cactus Cafe

Frommer's Review

A small, dark cavern with great acoustics and a fully stocked bar, UT's Cactus Cafe is singer-songwriter heaven, a place where dramatic stage antics take a back seat to engaged showmanship. The crowd's attentive listening attracts talented solo artists like Alison Krauss and Suzanne Vega, along with well-known acoustic combos. The adjacent Texas Union Ballroom (tel. 512/475-6645) draws larger crowds with big names like the Dixie Chicks.
