Why Choose
The Pershing

Once home to the Austin Lumber Company, the Pershing offers three distinct event spaces: the Pershing Hall, which retains the character of the original lumber mill, while the adjoining House (now the Pershing Membership Club) is an intimate 1930s two-story bungalow, and the Michael-Hsu designed Pershing East Café for a light-filled front porch to East Austin.

Together, the venue blends industrial heritage with organic design, offering a sophisticated take on bohemian luxury and a seamless flow between indoors and out.

“Pershing is my go-to spot in Austin. It’s where I can kick back, share a drink with friends, and feel completely at home.”

 — Nate Pruitt | Co-Founder Zilker Partners
