I've walked past this place many times and I never walked inside. I was missing out on a gem. They serve whiskey and cocktails. The coffee whiskey was delicious and the bar tender was very friendly. The decor of the place is super nice and you must check out the basement when you are there. This is a hidden gem and more people need to stop by for a drink. read more

Devils River Distillery - The Coffee Whiskey is nice! - Distilleries Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

For a distillery that has only been in this location for two years, it sure has made the space feel loved and inviting. Congrats to them on not only making exceptional whiskey but also having such a great team to represent it behind the bar. read more

Amazing distillery in the heart of the downtown area! It is up on street level and they have their beautiful copper stills on display right at the front. My friends ordered a few tasting flights and we were all pleased with the offerings. Our server was really nice and was apologetic they weren't serving food by the time we asked about it. She gave us suggestions of places that were open and had good options. read more

Devils River Distillery - This is what happens after a whiskey distillery tour... - Distilleries Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I spent 4 days in San Antonio. All the while playoff football was happening. We spent 2 nights going to Devils River. It was an awesome place to watch the game. Let's start here, Garrett was our bartender both nights and he was a gem. The cocktails were stunning and he was just overall wonderful. The atmosphere is amazing. The upstairs is cool but the downstairs is WOW. I truly cannot say enough about our experience here. If I come back to SA, that will be stop #1! Disclaimer: did not try the food. read more

Service was great, Ambiance is great, music was great, best of all drinks were great. One of the best Old Fashioned I have had.

A terrific find here in San Antonio. Terrific cigars and the old fashion was primo. The old fashion was really good. I didn't plan on getting a whole bottle until after I had one. It was nice and easy. Not The service was great and the staff friendly. Got to meet the owner Mike who was cool and down to earth. A great corn hole partner also. read more

Garrett was amazing with his patience and knowledge about the product. He spent a good amount of time with the two of us to describe what we were tasting. The Small Batch base bourbon and Agave bourbon are very good and the coffee bourbon & cinnamon one were also wonderful. We would go again next time we are in San Antonio! read more

Nice booths with good lighting. Our server was fantastic and had good recommendations. I'm not so sure they have food, but their drinks are top notch and at a predictable, downtown cost. read more

This is a great distillery. My girlfriend and I found it during our first trip to San Antonio last year in the Spring. They were only open a few weeks and we had the place to ourselves. We were granted an impromptu tour and truly enjoyed our time there. We ventured back during our second trip to San Antonio and it was great to see the distillery fully up and running. We had a lot of fun trying the two flights and playing games in the basement. This is a must try if you like distilleries. The ambiance is very timely. You step back into a 20-50s vibe. They also rent out the distillery for parties and weddings, which I think would be great fun and a great spot. read more

Don't tell my wife but I don't just come here for the whiskey the ladies aren't so bad either! Just joshing ya she already knows. They got a patio thats nice and all but I wish theyd install some sort of beach background so you could really feel like your on vacation instead of just looking at the donut place and the street but I guess you cant have everything in life. I will come back for the girls I mean the whiskey. read more

I'm not a huge whiskey person but I loved their coffee bourbon. I tried a flight of the coffee bourbon, agave bourbon and rye whiskey and the coffee was my favorite. Sweet and easy to drink. They regularly have live music and and it was all around a great and fairly intimate place to grab a drink and hang out near the river walk. I didn't have the opportunity to try a cocktail but they look delicious. read more

Another fun evening at Devils with our favorite group playing. they really engage the audience, by having some sing along, prizes, and just pure good music and fun. The drinks are smooth, the service great, since good wasn't available we went across the street and brought back donuts. Offered to the band, they enjoyed them too. it's too bad the weather has been chilly, wish they had those plastic curtains to pull down to keep the weather out, although it didn't stop us from enjoying the ambiance. Great place to go on weekend! read more

Great service and very close to the Majestic. Either way, if you're downtown it's worth a stop.

We were in town for the Alamo Marathon. Walked by Friday and Saturday wanting to check it out by unable before a run. Checked the web and the door which said open Sunday but man were we disappointed when we arrived at 1pm to find them closed. As a business you may want to update your website or put a sign on the door when your hours change so people don't go out of their way to find you closed. read more

Distillery has a relaxing, hip vibe. Wasn't very busy being a Tuesday night. Central location on Houston St made it easy to meet up with friends. Had great service by the bartender and manager Adrian. Like most businesses right now, they are short staffed so the food menu was limited. But Adrien made us delicious street tacos to accompany our flights and cocktails. I had the Cold Fashioned and enjoyed the chocolate and coffee Old Fashioned spin. The Devils in the Details had hints of blackberry but more of a traditional Old Fashioned. My coworkers had the flights. Fav was the Single Barrel Bourbon. We will be back, thank you! read more

The bar tenders were really friendly and welcoming... and man the Devil's Mule was GOOD! They had a good live band playing outside. I want to come back again! read more

This place is awesome it's swanky without being pretentious, it's well crafted bourbon but down to earth staff that make it so fun to talk whisky. Adrian was our tour guide and he was awesome! Walked us through our flights and taught us how to taste the whiskey fuller! He is well versed in whiskies and able to explain the different ways their made and how they're unique! He took his time with us and truly made it a great tour and evening like we've known him for years! Great product and place! Will make a visit with every trip down! read more

We've wanted to try this place the last 3 times we've been here but they always have a private event going on. Stopped by today and was underwhelmed. There was one employee working and another standing at the end of the bar. Fast forward 15 minutes later the the employee standing at the end of the bar finally said can I help you. We placed our order. After finishing we were going to order more drinks but 2 staff members left to go take some boxes to the downstairs event and the third (guy standing at the end of the bar) guy went to hang outside with other staff. We cashed out and went to Maverick a block away. They had table-service the same pricing and a much better experience. read more

Devils River Distillery - Moscow Mule, Tatiana Vanilla cigar, matches included! - Distilleries Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Hi all, it's Saturday night 11:15 pm and we came downstairs to the speakeasy. Very few people and no one to take care of you. They have a couple of TV screens running, but again, no one to take care of you. If only they had someone to take your drink orders and take care of you this will be a much better experience. Based on what we just experienced. We would not come back again. read more

What a cool place! I'd been looking for a good cigar all week. We were walking past and heard an amazing violinist playing a rock anthem on their outdoor stage. Soon I was sitting with a good glass of whiskey and an even nicer cigar, listening to great music. The venue is really neat, with kind of an old speakeasy vibe. Service was fantastic!i read more

We had a spectacular time at DRD during a whiskey tasting event. The owner took time to walk us through their history and current approach to making whiskey. We tasted a flight of whiskey and their lead bartender allowed us to sample some of their new appetizers that will be available later this year. The our of the distillery itself was a nice touch! read more

We came right at opening and the staff was incredibly nice, courteous, and greeted us with patience. We were not from town but are avid whiskey fans so we were excited by the cocktail list, and ended up having 3 drinks each at the recommendations of the bartender(s). All of the staff was super fun to talk to, had great personalities, and had a really good ind Roth knowledge of the establishment and the history. Ambience was warm and rustic which was very fitting for this distillery read more

Popped in on July 4th about 30 minutes before closing and the manager on duty not only welcomed us in very graciously, but allowed my dog in and gave us water for her. Talk about hospitality! A true gem. The bartender mixed our cocktails to perfection. What a couple of delicious drinks. Wow!! Thank you for having us and providing such quality drinks, service and professionalism. read more

The service was amazing our hostess went above and beyond her name was heather! She was very knowledgeable about the distillery and gave us the best experience we could imagine!!! I definitely recommend this place if you want to try something new but also learn something at the same time! 10/10 experience & 10/10 for the service provided ! read more

Why is no one here? This place has amazing drinks, much better than the commercialized watered down river walk drinks. Venture up to the top and have some real drinks. River Fresca is amazing. read more

Whiskey flights & cocktails 10/10! The atmosphere also great! Relax and very chill place to just relax and have some drinks. I did reserve 1 star due to the food. We ordered the queso & chips and it left a lot to be desired. We actually just ate the chips due to the queso's very low quality. Would definitely go back for drinks, ambience, & service but not for snacks. read more

Extremely friendly staff. The whiskey is fairly smooth. I had the flight on one day and returned for an Old Fashioned. The atmosphere is great. Just like the Alamo, request to see the basement. read more

A little late with my review but none the less this place is awesome. The ambiance is great and the bartender Matthew was amazing. Couple of my favorite drinks were the Devil's Mule, Espresso Self, Whiskey sour, and my new favorite the Gold Rush with a splash of ginger beer. We had a blast. 4/5 stars only because he didn't eat there. We came for the drinks two nights in a row and our final night we left with about $400 worth of Whiskey. If you decided to take any of the Devil's River home make sure you get there before 9pm. read more

Nice place. We LOVED the downstair's speak-easy style lounge. Arrived about 5pm before it got too crowded (Friday night) and it was perfect timing to have a low key, relaxed moment. The exposed distillery equipment is a nice touch. Drinks were tasty. read more

This would be my second time coming fort anniversary trip. Wonderful staff and atmosphere. Their drinks are priced really well especially for whiskey. Good cocktails and a variety of spins and twists on the cocktails most people love. Also love music on certain days gives a real relaxing and fun feel to the atmosphere. Easily became on of my favorite whiskeys and stop whenever I'm in the neighborhood. Would recommend giving them a look if you are ever in the riverwalk/Alamo plaza area of San Antonio. read more

We stumbled upon Devil's River and loved it! Great tasting whiskey and a cool man cave-style basement area with leather couches, cornhole, Jenga, TVs, boardgames, and books. Highly recommend the agave whiskey in an Old Fashioned. I believe they call it a Fresh Squeezed Old Fashioned. read more
