Southside Tavern

Southside Tavern Scratch fare, draughts, cocktails, wine, patio & live music on the Square in Downtown Goldthwaite, TX Every recipe we create is something we personally enjoy.
(1)

We are lifelong members of the Goldthwaite community with family hailing from Central Texas for almost 100 years. In discussion about what we wanted for the town in the future, there came a dream of renovating our great-grandfather's grocery store into a Texan proud mercantile and restaurant. Opening our doors in Goldthwaite in 2020, Southside Tavern offers a menu of dishes influenced by local ingredients, culinary traditions, and things you just can’t get ‘round here! We hope our food brings family and friends together.

​Our process is grounded in our commitment to fresh food and good service. From the smallest dish to the simplest beverage, we’re here to make your experience with us one you're excited to share.

🥵 IT’S HOT. And even our AC systems were starting to wave the white flag.

Huge shoutout to Wilson Heating & Cooling for the rapid response and getting us cooled back down. When it’s pushing triple digits, you find out real quick how much a dependable HVAC company matters.

Local folks taking care of local folks. We appreciate y’all! ❄️🙌
