This was a fun venue. I loved that there was a huge outdoor bar area with lots of tables and…read moreeverone was comfortable sitting together and meeting each other. The bar staff were wonderful! Super friendly and attentive. What I didn't care for was the amount of smoking. I get it, we're on the outside part of the bar, but man the cigarettes and cigars was a bit overwhelming. I guess I didn't realize how prevalent it still is to smoke in public. On to the show... It was phenomenal. We stayed at the back because this lady couldn't handle a mosh pit at 20, much less now. We had a pretty good view, there was lots of dancing and singing, it was so much fun! My only issue was that some of the vocals were so low. It was sometimes difficult to discern the song being played. Not sure if that had to do with where we were positioned, but it didn't change the fact that we had an amazing time. I would definitely come back, but probably wait until closer to show time to arrive to avoid waiting in the smoking section.

This was my first time going to this venue and with a friend who lives here. Parking is very…read moredifficult. We ended parked on a residential street in front of someone's home and not blocking their driveway. Bear in mind this venue is not a fancy concert venue. Some have even called it a dive bar. We attended a sold out show for The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and there were other bands that performed on the smaller stage simultaneously. The start time seemed to vary per social media/business platform so we aimed to get there as close to the time as TRJA would be going on. I had the whole TSA like door experience even with my small, 7 inch body purse. Had to show them every pocket before being allowed inside. We went straight to the bar and I ordered the grapefuit mule which might as well had been called the grapefruit flavored ginger beer as it had not a single ounce of vodka in it that I could taste. So that was $20+ wasted on one drink (including tip). The ice quickly melted in the 90 degree temperature at 10pm so the drink got watered down as well. The venue itself is maybe 90% outdoors so I was glad I chose to wear a tank and shorts plus closed toed shoes as my friend warned me about that in advance as well. Being Emo Prom night and near a neighboring college, most attendees were very hyped up and crowd surfing. A lady busted through the crowd and stepped on my shoe that I was so glad protected my feet and I got shoulder checked by some emo dude that was like 6'4" which thankfully he apologized for unlike the lady who stepped on my shoe trying to get closer to the stage. In 90+ degrees, even in a mostly open air venue, my sense of smell which is every strong was being attacked at all times. Body odor and hot garbage smells filled my nose constantly. My friend had warned me about the restrooms in advance. We even went back to her place to grab her hand sanitizer before we went there. When I walked in, every single door had spray paint on it and questionable locks. I ended up in the handicap stall as all the others were occupied. It smelled awful in there but that's what public restrooms mostly comprise of. The water faucet is the kind you have to push in to keep running water over your hands to wash off the soap so I had an elbow to the faucet while washing each hand. Only one hand dryer worked so I had to wait to use that. The main stage has a covering with a few industrial fans that you could barely feel any air pump out of so to me it was not worth it to even stand under the covered part. Balloons from prom kept being tossed up near the fan so it got stuck in the back of the fan and staff had to keep turning them off to make the balloons drop off the back of the fan. The show itself was great and the side acts were great but man!!! I felt so disgustingly sweaty and stinky after we left. I took a long shower after we got back to her place. :-/

Upon entering we were greeted by the amazing staff and since I won a contest from their Instagram we did receive free entry and tacos for my party of 10.

Luckily they have a small patio area that has access to another place to also enjoy their music and drinks.

Recently we hosted our Morrissey After Party at Bang Bang Bar, following the former Smiths…read morefrontman's sold-out January 10th performance at the Boeing Center at Tech Port and honestly, we couldn't have written a better script. Morrissey hadn't graced San Antonio in over 10 years, with past cancellations and postponements haunting fans along the way. So when he finally returned, San Antonio Moz fans showed up and showed out. Despite multiple after-party options across the city, fans from Brazil, the UK, Canada, Japan, and all across the U.S. chose Bang Bang Bar as the place to be on a cold Saturday night. Hosted by local emcee Ricardo Moz and Apollo DJ, the night turned into one for the history books. Bang Bang Bar is easily one of Texas' best dive-lounge bars...the perfect blend of gritty and cozy. Great cocktail program, solid beer selection, and a vibe that just works. The décor leans heavy into a 1950s-60s lounge aesthetic, with intimate spaces like the Blue Room and Yellow Room, perfect for groups of 7-10. Low lighting, warm atmosphere, and zero pretension exactly what you want for a night like this. Bang Bang Bar consistently supports local and touring acts, spanning punk, alternative, and DJ-driven nights, and this Moz Smiths Disco was no exception. It was wall-to-wall classics all night long. Major credit to Phanie and the Bang Bang Bar management they rolled up their sleeves, brought in extra bar staff, and handled an overwhelming crowd like pros. Fans waited up to 45 minutes in the cold, with a line wrapping around the building, and the energy inside never dipped. As the host of Panic On The Streets, I'm incredibly thankful to Bang Bang Bar for helping us pull off one of the best after-parties we've done in years. Fittingly, 2026 marks the 10-year anniversary of both Bang Bang Bar and Panic On The Streets of San Antonio and what a way to celebrate. Bang Bang Bar has long been one of my favorite bars in town, and after this night, that reputation is more than earned. Can't wait to do another Moz Smiths Disco here. -- Panic On The Streets of San Antonio

The bar has a stage (we've seen FEA perform there) and they have ample seating (tables, couches, stools, etc). I also enjoy how each couch area is its own living room setup (think of what you see when shopping for couches/coffee tables) and feel/vibe. I make it a point to come and visit this bar any time I'm in San Antonio. We love supporting Phanie and her bands in any way possible. Girl in a Coma and FEA 4ever!

As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by the smell of fresh popcorn and a welcoming ambiance from both the patrons and staff. The pool tables, extremely amazing daily happy hour, and chamoy shots confirmed my suspicion - this is hands down - the best place in San Antonio.

I tried the one inside and although it was on the pricier end, the shrimp quesadilla was really good! -Drinks: also can be on the pricier end depending on day. Look at your receipt carefully because they did add 20% gratuity to mine last night. Overall it's a clean and spacious place but once it hits 11ish they will start labeling and adding more tables for sections (booo!) so it gets more crowded. The DJs are so good too. Bathrooms are typically clean. Funny reminder: come ready with bug spray because them TX mosquitoes were OUT!
