Leander’s Crystal Falls Golf Club has renovated their snack bar into a full-service Irish pub and restaurant.

The two-minute impact

The Cork & Barrel Pub celebrated its grand opening on March 19. The Irish gastropub, which has another location in Round Rock, aims to be a place where “Irish flair meets Texas fare,” according to a news release. The golf course partnered with RS3 Strategic Hospitality in October 2024 to renovate the course’s snack bar.

“We look forward to introducing their exciting new concepts to both our golf course customers and the local community,” said Crystal Falls Golf Club general manager Larry Werner in the release.

What they offer

The new pub offers a selection of beer, wine and spirits in addition to a full menu of traditional pub food such as burgers, hot dogs and salads as well as Irish-inspired entrees like fish and chips, shepherd's pie and Irish-style curry.
