crider's rodeo & dance hall印象
-
I started going to Crider's once a year 25 years ago when I worked at some of the camps in the area. A group of counselors would always go the night before the kids came in for camp that week. It was so much fun. Now I live in the Hill Country and still love going. This place is very family oriented. From little bitty ones to big ones all dancing on the concrete outdoor dance floor. So much fun. The rodeo before the dance on Saturday evenings is fun and especially for those that have never been to a rodeo. Two years ago I hosted a high-school reunion of my military brat classmates from all over, Crider's was most accommodating and the group loved the place. I've never been very impressed with the food, but I don't go for the food, I go for the rodeo and dancing. Only open from Memorial Weekend 'til Labor Day Weekend, try and make it out this summer with the family. Cost is reasonable, rodeo $7 (I believe) and dance $5-7.

Crider's is an outdoor dance hall that is open during the summer months. They have great live music on the weekends, and you will see people of all ages two stepping around the floor. This is a Hill Country tradition. Food is available, but mediocre. The real draw is the dancing, and the rodeo that happens prior to the opening of the dance hall. If you're visiting the Hill Country you won't be disappointed. Beautiful old live oaks tower over the dance floor. Enjoy!

My Grandparents first went to Crider's in the 1930's, not much has changed. Still run by the same family with the same values. If you want to see what Texas was like for the past three generations it is a must. Go early around 8:30 pm and have a hamburger then stay for the dance, let the younger generation close it down.

I visited Crider's for a night of two and three-step. The band also played some CW waltz, CW swing, CW cha-cha and a number of line dances for those who don't partner dance. I even managed to dance a bolero, which is not something you'd expect of a country western open-aired "hall" with a concrete dance floor. At the start of the evening the concrete is very slick due to the sand they spread on the floor, but as the night wears on the floor gets less perilous. One still has to watch for random kids running through the dance area, but it is all part of the charm.Food is available. There is a cover charge, but the drink prices are reasonable and there is plenty of picnic table seating.

we live in the area, and are season ticketholders at Criders. memorial day through labor day, every Friday night is the fish fry. fabulous. then Saturday night is rodeo. husband used to come here in the 1970's and be IN the rodeo. now we very much enjoy watching those kids. put our 5 yr old grandson in mutton bustin the other weekend. what a scream! you just sign em up, criders has vests and helmets. it's a great atmosphere for all , 8-80. go for some dinner, see the rodeo, starts around 8-8:30, then head over to the dance with live music, under the giant live oak. they have beer and wine coolers.there must be 500 people every Saturday night. a very special piece of small town texas, not to be missed if you are visiting.

From Memorial Day to Labor Day, our Saturday nights are spent on the cornmeal dusted concrete dance floor of Crider's Dance and Rodeo. These days, we have a standing reservation at a picnic table on the river side of the dance floor, but when our girls were little, we would situate ourselves along the parking lot fence so that we could back the station wagon up close to the table so the girls could go to sleep while we danced late into the night. That was thirty years ago, but the children are still dancing with their parents, learning the Cotton Eyed Joe and the Chicken Dance under the Christmas lights strung in the oak trees. There is a decent kitchen where you can get a hamburger or nachos, and on Friday nights, a really good catfish dinner. The rodeo is well run and fun for all, complete with bull riding and mutton bustin'. It's hard not to have a good time at Crider's, a family run business since the 1930's.

Drove to Crider's for some food, take in some Rodeo action and topped off the night with some Texas Two Stepping. The food is reasonable and the best deal are the burgers, the Rodeo was fun and exciting with a real Family friendly Atmosphere, saw Bull Riding, Calf Roping, Bronco riding and several other events. After the Rodeo we walked over to listen to the live band and even graced the dance floor with the granddaughters. The cost is Family Friendly for a great evening of food and entertainment.

Headed here to enjoy and evening out and enjoy our favorite band Jody Nix. We first ate at the cafe and there is a somewhat varied menu of fried items. We ordered a burger/fries and chicken strips/fries with two cokes. This came to a little over $16. Make a note that they DO NOT TAKE PLASTIC. They only accept cash or check. We had read this on their website but didn't remember. Luckily we had enough cash to pay for the order:) The cafe opens at 6:30 and we were there soon after so PLENTY of parking and seating. Inside was some available tables and outside on the patio with the large oak tree was your choice. The order came quickly and was warm but the strips were hard crust as if they had been cooked earlier and reheated. The fries were a little soggy. Nothing to rave about and I wouldn't probably eat there again or would maybe try something different. The rodeo didn't start until 8 and it began a little late. This is a small community and everybody seemed to know everybody so you kinda know you are from out-of-town. The rodeo was small caliber but fun. We left early as we really wanted to get to the dance. The dance floor is large concrete outside with picnic tables all around. Lots of tables were reserved so shared a table. Seems locals reserve the tables while they are at the rodeo so they have a place to sit when they get to the dance. Beer is $2.50 so that's a deal:) The music was super, that's why we traveled to hear them. The place was packed and lots of toddlers and teens mixed in with the adults and the small ones sliding across the dance floor. This is very much a community gathering and everyone enjoys the time as did we. The rodeo was $6 each and the dance was $10 each ($5 for seniors 65 and over). This place was established in 1925 so been around for a while and still going. We will return another time in the future.
