    Was very excited to check this bar. Upon arrival on when we stopped inside, the place had a really cool vibe. When was extensive, like that they had drinks by era. Disappointment was our bartender was not very personable which kind of ruined the experience especially because it was our first time there.

    Adrian took such great care of us: top-notch hospitality paired with well made drinks. If you’re going as a party of 1-3 I HIGHLY recommend sitting at the bar.

    I gave the bartenders there orders for a series of obscure cocktails and they nailed them all. Very friendly staff. Love the ambience. Best grilled cheese sandwich I ever had - an added plus. Best bar in Austin - hands down
