Dixie Dance Hall

What can you say if you are an older guy like myself … The beer was cold, the place was empty when I was there, but I wasn’t there to hang out or drink or anything … It was simply the place that I was too meet my ride home … Thank God they had an elevator … !~

It became a day care that caters to the wants of 17 and 18 year old children, rather than any responsible and paying adult. The «security» is more worried about feeling important than maintaining order. Plus, cops hang out waiting for their quota guarantee.

I used to go nearly every weekend simply because my friends would drag me, if you don’t know people in the area, line dance, or go to college this probably won’t be a good place for you. Most of the people here are college students and straight up country people. Now I admit when they start playing some grind music I get my dance on but I swear when there is a line dance on all you hear is boots on the floor I don’t know if they stop playin the song or they just stomp so hard. The smoke patio is very very small as is the dance area. They have a bar top where (mostly drunken females) get on top and do their very own rendition of coyote ugly which is a nice touch! It’s very intimate because of how small it is everyone is pushed together so there is a lot of touching. Over all I have had a decent time here but it closes at 2 am which is kind of early I believe.

If you’re over 30 and looking for country this place is not for you. The crowd is mostly 20-​somethings and the music is only 33% country. If you want to country dance in Beaumont go to The River.

I wish there were negative stars to give! Drinks are seldom mixed right and its known to locals as Dixie Daycare. Tons of underage drinking. Big with the 18 – 21 crowd. If you want fresh out of high school this is for you! DJ is ok, doesn’t play near enough country for me. They do unfortunately host alot of the concerts but the sloppy minors falling all over the place make me dread this venue!

I’ve been pretty hard on Beaumont establishments lately, but I think that Dixie Dance Hall deserves these stars. Dixie is the dance club that’s managed to stick around for a good number of years in a city that can’t seem to get its footing in the nightlife scene.
For dancing, the dance floor is great in size and layout. There are clearly defined seating and leaning areas and bars or pool tables on either end. There are 2 bars, both seemingly offering the same things, though one is larger and longer. The one near the bathrooms seems to get less traffic and makes for quicker service. And in Dixie Dance Hall, we have a Beaumont bar that at least uses point of sale computers to input orders, so you have some degree of accuracy with your tab. The light is low, but not so low that you can’t see the fancy footwork of some skilled 2-​steppers. The décor is minimal and what you’d expect at a country-​western dance hall, and overall the establishment is clean.
The drinks are mixed strong and drink specials are always offered with promotions listed on their website and Facebook pages. They also advertise nightly specials to get in free or with discounted cover. Usually your cover to Dixie also includes cover to Vain or other Crocket Street venues. On weekend nights, there are test-​tube shot girls that come around with their offerings for $ 2. They are friendly and are able to add these shots to your bar tab. The girls are also easy on the eyes, if you’re in to that.
The dress code is VERY casual — think barn wedding attire at best. Jeans and polos abound for the fellas, while ladies easily get away with jean shorts and a tank top.
It’s a large place, so it won’t always be packed to the gills, but if you’re looking for a place in Beaumont to dance like nobody’s watching and be a little silly, this is as good as it gets.

Racist bar came up with every excuse to not let us enjoy the night
