Texan two-step at the Broken SpokeAustin, USA

Dust off your boots, grab your gal or guy and two-step your way around the Broken Spoke - an Austin institution.

Owned and run by the same couple since 1964, this dusty dancehall is what honky tonk Texas is all about. Long neck beers, the best chicken fried steak in town (whatever that is), and wooden table and chairs where ladies wait for men to ask for their hand to dance. It's all the real McCoy here - sagging wood floor, low ceilings in disrepair and a dance floor with pumping country music both live and DJ.

It’s rumoured to be Willie Nelson’s favourite hangout – not to mention countless other country music stars. It ain’t fancy, but it’s sure as hell fun. A treasure for Texans and tourists alike.
