Today I stopped by to have a few drinks. The bar was clean and bright. It is welcoming with a relaxing atmosphere. There is a large tree in the middle of the lounge. The bartenders were friendly and knowledgeable of the drinks. They were also able to recommend drinks based on someone's typical drinking preferences. My 1st drink was the midnight margarita. This was a well balanced, complex drink that brought your palate on a journey with every sip. For my second drink I got the spiced daiquiri. This was not what I expected. It was more of a sweet dessert martini than spiced daiquiri. It was too sweet for my liking. I have a few days staying here so I look forward to trying some of their other drinks and some of their food over the next few days.
I came to Austin for a couple of days, and this place truly made my trip memorable. The service was amazing! Recep kindly guided us to the Fulton Lobby Bar, and a special thanks to Volkan who took great care of us there. We tried a few dishes and cocktails -- everything was delicious and flavorful. We also loved the atmosphere and the live music. Highly recommend!
The worst service tonight while sitting at the bar. We had to flag bartenders twice for drinks while sitting at the bar. They appeared to busy chatting with each other or preparing garnishes and other things over the customers and we were only 2 of maybe 4 total at the whole bar. Other nights it's been awesome, but this crew needs to be talked to! They are bad!
My family stayed at the fairmont while visiting so we had a few drinks here over the weekend and some food. I ended up getting a ceasar salad with salmon. The salad itself was really good but I had to ask for some extra dressing because it was pretty dry but their dressing is made in house and was so yummy. I added salmon and it was alright but pretty plain. Would've been a lot better if they did a blackened salmon or just seasoned it some more. Our servers were all very nice and the bartenders did a great job even when they were super busy. Overall, very cute nice hotel bar!
The service was amazing! I really loved the live music and the large windows see the rain! My only issue was I ordered a well done steak (I don't like to see red)... when I got to the middle of the steak I noticed it was still red but at that point I just didn't want it anymore and gave the rest to my spouse he didn't mind. Overall a decent experience.
We stopped in at Fulton before a recent dinner reservation at Garrison. It's the "lobby bar" in the Fairmont Hotel. Very nice, comfortable and welcoming social gathering space. The center piece of the space is the large live oak tree in the middle of the area. Pretty cool! They serve light food there all day, but we were there just for cocktails. Service was good. The drink menu is filled with off -the-chart specialty cocktails, and the prices were not bad. Expansive wine list as well, including both Old World and New World offerings. We would stop by again when in the area.
The lobby bar / restaurant at the Fairmont. I didn't order food, but the space itself is open and comfortable. Especially before actual opening hours, it's a nice space to lounge, read a book and drink coffee. It was also a nice space for my 2 year old to run around. She was fascinated with the pretty and tall plastic tree that serves as the focal point of the space. At night the space livens us with live music and a busy bar. I only ordered a beer, but I found the service to be good. It was a great casual environment to catch up with friends. We were in town for a conference and this was a good spot for everyone to meet.
Nice ambiance and they made a certain cocktail they didn't have their menu. Waitress was sweet, but it seemed like maybe they were understaffed at the bar. It took a little while to get our drinks and it wasn't busy yet.
The bar at the Fairmont. Good drinks options and they have some small food plates you can order. Service was on the slow side. They get a 1 star upgrade for having live music which was awesome.
Love the piano player vibe and the ambiance is nice, love the colors. I was less than impressed with the kindness and timely service by our waitress. We came for drinks though and they tasted delish!
We visited on Christmas Day and it was relatively busy, but there wasn't a wait. We were walking around looking for a light lunch as we had dinner plans later in the day. We checked out Rainey Street, but almost everything was closed. The wife and I split the burger and fries. They split the order on two plates and I'm pretty sure they gave us WAY more than a normal portion of fries. The burger was cooked the way my wife likes, but a little much for my preference. It was still really good and the fries were crispy and salty. They gave us small, single use Sir Kensington ketchup and now I need to find where to buy that. I got a draft beer and an old fashioned. Their drinks, like their food, was a little on the pricy side, but it was a nice restaurant in a nice hotel.
Fulton is the only sit down restaurant open right now at the Fairmont Austin. They have a limited menu with some rotating selections during the week.. The COVID-19 precautions were in place where encouraged to wear masks until seated at the table. The staff did a great job with keeping the environment safe. The menu is viewed using your phone and contained a wide variety of options. I ordered the Roasted Half Amish Chicken with a glass of Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc. The place was quiet with a few others dining in. Normally we sit at the bar but it was unavailable due to the virus. The Amish Chicken was delicious with the meat falling off the bone. The whipped potatoes were good as well. It was fulfilling. The highlight of our dining experience besides the tasty chicken was the bartender recognized us from the last time we were here on our wedding anniversary, and stopped by for a visit. This was true exceptional and never forget this.
This bar makes excellent cocktails, and the atmosphere is pretty and sophisticated. Seating is limited, but it's worth the wait. The holiday decorations are so beautiful, and the bar has a special feeling to it. The Old Fashioned Amigos is a must-do for tequila and scotch lovers.
The restaurant hours are a little misleading. It says breakfast goes until 11. The hostess said lunch doesn't start until 11:30 - it was 11:26 so I and asked if could sit. She warned me I would have to wait until 11:30, fine. When the waiter came over maybe 15 minutes layer, he explained that I can't order lunch until 12. He gave me some snacks though so I was fine. I ordered the chicken sandwich with grilled chicken instead of fried, which they were able to accommodate. The chicken was really dry, but everything else was delicious from the pickles to the coleslaw and the fries. The lunch menu is pretty small but because I was staying at the hotel I got $15 off, so they got me. read more

This is the restaurant/bar located at the base of The Fairmount Austin. Decor/vibe is very nice. Beautiful and feels upscale. I came here primarily for a drink, and had the ABSOLUTELY BEST OLD FASHIONED I ever had. It had a lemon zest aroma followed by the sweet robust taste of an Old Fashioned. Highly highly recommend. I ended up having several, which subsequently led to me ordering some chicken tenders which were also amazing. Price is a little high, which isn't unexpected given the vibe of this place and being a hotel restaurant and all. Bartender was very attentive and nice! read more
The ambience is a hotel lounge bar, very quiet and calm you would say demure service is excellent and informative the bartenders are tip top shape it was a pleasure being served by Corey and Kevin we didn't take a chance at little bites but the cocktails did feel like a four course service. definitely enjoy a dark chocolate strawberry cocktail very delicate read more

This bar is so beautiful and it is located in Fairmont hotel. I landed after a long flight and really needed a drinks. My server, Jim was so good with recommendations. He also gave me tips about austin since it is my first time in the city. I was waiting for my friends for 3 hours to arrive but Big Jim was so good to check in on me. His customer service is impeccable and this will be my go to hotel because I love hotels with great restaurants and bars. If you come to this place, make sure to request Big Jim as your server. Can't wait to come back! read more
The Bloody Mary well somewhat tasty it wasn't something I'd go back for. A little on the pricy side of things for the three drinks you get and I love bloody Mary's so I think it's very safe to say this is just your run of the mill average mix. Not made in house or anything special. Though we didn't order food the restaurant it's self was very busy! The staff was very friendly and helpful and seemed to be following the "covid protocol" (not that it matters to me). That's why the three stars.. for staff not the drinks. Maybe I'll give them another shot on the next stay at the Fairmont. read more

I had a terrible experience at the Fulton. I was staying at the Fairmont and stopped downstairs for lunch. The service was awful. First off, the hostess didn't understand any english. She had no idea what I was saying in regards to getting a table. In addition, there was no waiter servicing the table and when the guy finally stopped by to ask what we needed...he brought nothing to write down the drink orders. No waters were brought to the table despite asking multiple times. In addition all the food and drink orders came out at different times. The people who got their meals first finished before the next couple people even received their food. I definitely would not recommend anyone wasting their time or money on eating here. It was the worst experience I've had at a restaurant in a long time. read more

Super sick place, as a bartender I've gotta be one of the more picky people with my cocktails. Coming from San Antonio, Im upset I haven't heard of this bar beforehand. Kyle killed it and put up with all my obsolete questions.. Come to stay, come to drink.. you'll be pleased with both. read more
The Fulton is a gorgeous bar off to the side of the Austin Fairmont Hotel lobby. They have live music, comfortable seating, and an impressive drink list. My boyfriend and I whiled away hours under their lighted oak tree, listening to the live piano jazz, nibbling on hors d'oeuvres and sipping our drinks. A great place to relax, unwind, and just spend time in a luxe setting. read more

Basically, I'm only making this review to talk about these nuggets bruh. These are the tastiest little guys I've ever had in chicken nugget form. The sauce was so tangy and delicious. I think I might stay at the Fairmont again just for these nuggets. We also had great service, wonderful Crystal champagne, and great charcuterie but nothing compares to these nuggets. Thanks and have a great Valentine's. read more

The Fairemont Austin is one of my favorite hotel to stay, very clean and nice amenities! We visited the Fulton, on the first floor of the hotel, and enjoyed great cocktails, live music, and high quality of cheeses. Servers are really kind and very experts to explain what I ordered. read more
Stayed at the Fairmont a couple of times after fund-raising events. Both times I made sure to stop at Fulton. Their bar is spacious and airy with a lot of glass overlooking Red River (and people on scooters, of course). Fulton has a great wine list, custom cocktails and a lot of friendly and knowledgeable staff. Their food menu has some very tasty and relatively affordable fare as well. The cheese board is excellent. The beef tartare was okay but honestly the crostini outshined the beef. The staff is very attentive. The edge of the seating area sort of blends into the lobby and I'd paused and sat down on a couch just to rest a second and someone was asking me if I'd like a menu within seconds. It was tempting to change plans and hang out yet another time but I had to decline. It's a good place to chill out and enjoy a glass of wine and some tasty bites when you're down near the convention center! read more

I get it, we're here in the middle of a winter storm but this is ridiculous. The prices ? The options? The quality? I'm actually in shock I'm spending close to $100 for this. They are absolutely taking advantage of their guests and the situation. We literally have nowhere else to go to get warm food. This is what we get at the Fairmont in Austin, TX. I thought this was a classy hotel. First the deli sandwich fell apart and had shredded cheese- $15. The tomato bisque and grilled cheese was totally cold, this was $18. This is absolutely insane and no way to treat your guests. I'm not asking for a 5 star meal, but This is laughable. I will never support this hotel. again. Period. I feel like I'm at the Fyre Festival. Oh btw, this is after waiting 3hrs on a waiting list only to tell us they lost our reservation. Yeah I am staying here too.... read more

This bar is awesome! Great atmosphere and an awesome craft cocktail menu - though quite potent! The bar tenders are friendly and engaging and the space has a very cool design. I definitely suggest the El Camino Real! I'm sure we'll be back. read more

Great place for both drinks and bites. Had a few cocktails, which were well made. Would recommend the Mexican Chicken Nuggets so delicious. Would recommend to others to start the night out or for a date night. read more

We stayed at the Fairmont during our trip to Austin. The highlight of our stay at the hotel was Kevin, he's a great bartender and made us the best off menu cocktails we've had. We wish we could take him with us back to San Francisco!! Our favorites were the "JD" which is an Amaretto based cocktails and the "Ro" which is a chocolate martini based cocktail. He also gave us great recommendations which we tried and loved. Kevin needs a raise!! read more
