Introduction
Famous for our fries, our fabulous menu, friendly service, and a giant fork!
Serving handmade food in a casual atmosphere for a moderate price.
Since our opening in 1982, we at Hyde Park Bar & Grill have been determined in our effort to bring you delicious high quality food at a very moderate price. We hope that good value, friendly service and a relaxed casual atmosphere are what keep bringing you back. We are dedicated to serving you quality handmade food using the freshest ingredients available.
Our restaurants are open at 11:00 a.m. every day for lunch and dinner serving a variety of dishes at a variety of prices. Our goal is to be the place you eat when you dine away from home.
What About Dessert?
We are serious about dessert. Ours are all house-baked and they change depending on our bakers' whims (never deny a baker's whim). Our signature dessert is Wom Kim's Peach Pudding. Try it only if you like warm peaches and heavy cream. Chocolate lovers can usually count on the Dark Chocolate Layer Cake availability. Or we may be offering Crème brulée, Espresso Spice Cheese Cake, Orange Layered Cake or . . . you get the drift.

Back in 1982, Corpus Christi native and UT alum Bick Brown was ready to open his own restaurant. He'd worked for some of the most innovative restaurateurs in Austin, including Mike Young and John Zap of Gianni's and Chuy's.
He spotted a shockingly pink, rather run-down old house on Duval with a red & white Coca Cola sign out front that had once housed Armen's Aremenian Food. The interior was even more unusual than the outside. But to Bick's eyes it screamed 'potential.â?
Teaming up with John Woolsey, Bick enlisted architect Robert Smith to help him move from vision to reality.In time, the old home's essential character was revealed, with a beautiful copper bar inside and dark ship-lap wood on the walls, ideal for setting off the work from area artists that Bick wanted to showcase along with the delicious food he had in mind. Because of sign ordinances in the area, designer Billy Glover brainstormed with Bick and artist Richard Heinichen to come up with an idea.
The three decided that a giant fork would be just the ticket.
The fork created an immediate landmark, and Hyde Park Bar & Grill opened September, 1982. Not long after, artist Dale Whistler began creating various art pieces and accouterments for the Fork ' a few which can be seen here. The French fries took center stage early on, winning many Austin Chronicle awards, and the menu was then, as it is now, eclectic and fun, combining comfort food, bistro fare, and vegetarian entrees.
From the beginning, a focus on wine ' making nearly everything available by the glass, was another hallmark.
The original location is still going strong today, and in 2006, the south location opened, serving all the great folks in South and West Austin.
