Come catch the Austin phenomenon that is the Eric Tessmer Band. Tessmer is Back! After an extensive tour that took the band to admiring crowds along the East Coast, Midwest and and in Canada, ETB is back in Austin for a bit and back at B. D. Riley's as often as we can book him. Led by truly amazing guitar, Eric Tessmer Band is the ultimate blues power trio. Do not miss this show, starting at 10:30pm. No cover ever. 
Perfect pints, fish and chips to die for and great Irish music.

Welcome to B. D. Riley’s!
Come visit and experience the true feel of Ireland and the “Craic”(Fellowship and Fun) of your own local Irish Pub, in the heart of Austin’s 6th Street Entertainment District.
B.D. Riley’s is not part of some national chain–for more than 10 years it’s been a locally-owned, friendly, neighborhood pub serving a wide variety of award-winning foods, perfect pints of your favorite brews, great live music and the kind of crowd that always ensures a good time. C’mon in to the pub–make some new friends!
If you are looking for a pub to call your own, look no further. The “formula” is pretty simple: serve good food and perfect pints in a traditional pub environment with a friendly staff, and season the mix with a healthy measure of cool live music. The result is a classic, classy neighborhood Pub. It’s 6th Street–but for Grown Ups! We’d like to be your local pub on 6th Street.
The Pub itself is a showplace (and our history is impressive). Every day is a good day to visit–we’re open 365 days a year. Our Calendar always has the latest news and events, like televised sports, our prize-filled Pub Quiz trivia night, Live Music 7 nights a week with no cover charge, including each Wednesday after Trivia, a Sunday Irish Tune Session, and much more.
Check out the additional pages linked on the left to learn more about the Pub, take a “tour,” view our offerings, and learn about upcoming activities.
