About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Good for groups
  • Great for creative cocktails
A historic pool turned social club, Swim Club is refreshingly fun. Indulge in the age-old adage: eat, drink, and be Downright merry. Grab a bite in the sunken dining room with submarine views of the adjacent pool, sip a refreshing cocktail on your poolside lounger, soak in the sun on The Lawn, and when the good-hearted and good-timing leaves you thirsty for more, enjoy late-night tunes in Randy's Rodeo Room.

    Very fun setting! Convenient to concert at moody center. Friendly service on a quiet Labor Day weekend but would be fun girls trip stop. Especially recommend wine, G&Ts, and apps, pizza, tacos and quesadillas - would skip the fancier cocktails

    Our waitress was not very good. There was only one other table sat in the entire restaurant and she rarely came over to us to check in if we needed anything. We ordered Champagne and she brought back Prosecco (took her forever to get back to our table to tell her) and when she did come over we let her know it was fine but we asked for Brut- her response was, "this is better". Like, we didn't know what the differnce between the two were... Bad service experience but restaurant was cute for what it was. Prices were very high for what we got (btw the prosecco was lamarca and it costed $48 for one typical bottle that costs no more than $15 bucks at the grocery store.)

    What a fun place! We went for dinner and drinks. Food and drinks were a little on the pricy side for what it was, but the chopped salad was great and decor is just so fun!

    The food was excellent as always, but this visit was disappointing due to long waits, lack of acknowledgment when we arrived, slow service throughout the meal, and the restaurant seeming understaffed and unprepared, including not having enough supplies for to-go orders. This has never been our experience before, so we're hopeful it was an isolated incident and will give the restaurant another try.

    Casual restaurant with pretty good food for the price. I wouldn't come here for the food probably, but would come for the pool and bar. Very cute decor.

    I went in around 1:30pm on a Sunday and had a great experience! We ended up sitting in this converted indoor pool, turned into a dining room! Great drinks and food, I had a brunch burger, a frozen pina colada and some bubbles afterwards. Really fun, relaxed yet lively energy and atmosphere. The employee serving us guided us through the menu, had this fantastic olive oil cake from his recommendation, it was so delicious! He also showed us the games, pink pool table above the bar where they were watching some FIFA games, so we could have another drink and lounge around. Solid A/C in there, also a good place to beat the heat. Definitely recommend, this is a great spot for a really high quality meal, early date night or some drinks with friends.

    This place is so much fun! I’ve been here a few times and every time it doesn’t disappoint. I’m greeted by friendly, happy faces, and the servers are pretty attentive and check on me a few times throughout the meal. Recently was here for a date night and ordered the poke bowl. YUM, presentation was beautiful, flavors were awesome, that chef knows what he’s doing. I’ve ordered a bunch of the things on the menu in past visits and have enjoyed them all. I already have another reservation booked this summer for a girls night because that girl dinner?! We LOVE a girl dinner, can’t WAIT 😍 If you’re a vibes person, the vibes here are always on point. Fun music, the bright colors (we love a teal & bubblegum pink combo…I mean come on there’s a PINK pool table. Say less 💖). I’m a sucker for cool unique spots and part of the dining space is set literally inside the historical original pool, with an underwater peek through to the current pool. It’s SO cool. Anyway, if a fun, fresh aesthetic is your deal, then this is a bucket list for your restaurant crawl around downtown Austin. Love, love, love 🤌🏼

    so bad. we walked in and there was no one at the host stand. the bartender then yelled at us from across the restaurant to sit anywhere we’d like. (we fully had reservations). we sat where ever we liked and no one came to our table to help us for 10 minutes. my friend walked up to the bar to ask if anyone was going to come over and the manager seemed confused on why we hadn’t been helped. there were 4 other tables filled including us (2 had food and the other was in the same boat as us and equally confused). he gave us menus and about 10 minutes later a server came over and didn’t introduce herself just said “what do yall want”. got the shrimp cocktail as a starter and it was fine. i got the tuna taco and my friend had the shrimp QUESADILLA. when they brought our mains mine came out fine and they brought my friend ANOTHER shrimp cocktail. probably the worst experience i’ve ever had in a restaurant. it’s cute but pictures are definitely better than in person. will not be back and would never recommend to anyone.

    My friends and I made a reservation here to celebrate a birthday and even chose to stay at the hotel specifically because of this restaurant. When we arrived, there was no host stand coverage and no staff greeting guests. We waited for several minutes while the bartender appeared to notice us but never acknowledged us. Eventually, we approached him ourselves and mentioned our reservation. His response was, “Reservation? No one told me about a reservation, but you can sit wherever. If you sit closer, you’ll get faster service.” That left us confused. If the restaurant operates on open seating, I’m not sure why reservations are accepted through OpenTable. At the very least, guests should be notified if there will be limited service or staffing. I ordered a drink to give the experience a chance, but the interaction continued to feel awkward and unpolished. Since we were celebrating a birthday, I asked what his favorite drink was and whether they had any cocktails served in fun or unique glassware. Instead of making a recommendation or helping create a memorable experience, he simply stated that all drinks came in standard glasses. For a restaurant that markets itself as an experience, I was surprised there was no effort to make the occasion feel special. I also didn’t understand why only one employee appeared to be working the entire restaurant. Additionally, when I requested a room charge and provided our room number (1601), I was told it was 1600, which created further confusion. I understand that staffing challenges happen, but the lack of hospitality, communication, and overall service made this a very disappointing experience. More than anything, I wish the bartender had shown some interest in helping guests feel welcome and cared for.
