Not even three seconds after walking in, the staff greeted me right away. They were super warm and welcoming. The drinks were great and our bartender Mia was a total vibe. I loved the feel of this place and it really makes you feel like you are in a vintage style grandma's house in the best possible way. read more

Pastiche is a place that I've always really enjoyed but I recently went and had a very bad experience. The menu seemed to have changed the last time I went & lowered in quality significantly. I'm not sure if it was new management or a temporary condition but I would say that the drinks were nearly inedible. For example the old fashioned riff I had was bourbon, angostura bitters, and anise. It seemed to be missing a sugar component like a simple syrup. It was also smoked but the smoke was very synthetic in flavor. Additionally some of the other cocktails ordered by the group were just of a much lower quality at Pastiche. A lot of the drinks were artificially sweet & had chamoy & tajin rims. I think these drinks are good for certain places in San Antonio but I've come to expect much better from Pastiche. I'm so very bummed by this new development in what is usually a very great experience & atmosphere with some amazing cocktails. I hope this isn't the beginning of a "new pastiche"! read more

I heard this was a good spot for black people so I came to check it out. Inside was packed, but it's so small it packs out pretty easily. The bar was damn near impossible to get to. There's no real 'line' and people just move into whatever space available to get to the front. Then they order, get their drinks, and just stand there blocking the rest of the people. After getting passed up twice I gave up and sat outside. Nice patio area. But they need to spray and prep for mosquitos. It wasn't a good experience. A gentleman came out and took my order- which was top notch and unexpected- but they didn't take cash. I used the atm card- and got a double leguas- and it came to$32!!!! How sway!?!?!? The ambiance was very nice- just not enough room inside. There was a dj in the living room- but their music doesn't play on the patio. It's a boombox out there playing a different playlist. read more

Pastiche is a WHOLE VIBE. We were in SA for a conference. Our waitress at Magpie recommended them. They were just a little walk down the street. Approaching, we didn't know what to expect. But once we got in and saw the layout AND heard the music, we were stuck. The eclectic old school decor from the front to the backyard set up...ALL AMAZING! We enjoyed our cocktails and time there. Don't even think about it...JUST GO! read more

Discovered this gem on the 'gram! It looks like a regular house from the outside, but step inside & you're transported to an intimate, cozy club. No food here, so come with a light stomach. Despite the packed house, the bartenders were incredible - super friendly & eager to get your drink feedback. (And that well tequila?! Surprisingly smooth!) Drinks are $15-20, but they're expertly crafted. Paying for the vibe is totally worth it. No cover charge, but they do check IDs. Loved the energy - lots of women & a great DJ. Not much seating, but perfect for mingling. ‍ I went solo & made some awesome connections. The espresso martini? So fire!! I may have had 3. Highly recommend checking it out! read more

We walked over from Magpie for a nightcap. The vibe was easy when we arrived. About 30 minute in, the dj arrived. We are early sleepers, so we headed home. It looked like it would've been fun to continue to hang. The drinks were great and the other patrons we nice. Loved seeing everyone in their Friday night best. read more

Was turned away because I had my dog with me. I even asked if we could sit out in the. Back and was told no. I live in the neighborhood and only reason I went is because the statues shows dogs are allowed. Never suggesting to anyone read more

Pastiche was a vibe for sure! The bartender was pretty quick but we were only one of two parties in the bar at that time so not sure how it would be when it's crowded. The drinks were good but pretty expensive in my opinion for the location. You're looking at a minimum of $15-$17 per cocktail which is almost unheard of in SA. Nonetheless, you're paying for the ambiance. Definitely recommend checking it out if you're on that side of town and want a chill spot to grab a quality drink. read more

The vibes of this little bar are great, but definitely come early because seating is limited. There is an outdoor backyard space to chill in but it does get pretty warm because they use fire to light up the area. There are servers that go around and collect cups and you are also able to order drinks with them. The bartenders are super nice and they make the drinks STRONG. If you're looking for a place to chill with your friends this is the place! read more

The vibe and the DJ was amazing. And you can't beat having a soulfood truck outside while having a nice cocktail. I wish they did have better food options inside though or that the charcuterie board that's included with the champagne was a little bigger so that it could be shared (I wouldn't mind paying more). The service was excellent, bartenders and staff were welcoming and kind, I'll definitely be returning. read more

Serious hole in the wall bar transporting you into a different era upon stepping foot inside. The feel is pretty chill and laid back. A true speakeasy. Music is not overpowering but a consistently steady background soundtrack. Came on a Saturday around 6:30, 30 minutes after opening and there was one other couple. Tried their mezcal cocktail and another with absinthe. Both were pretty tasty! Sat at the bar so got to see the 1 bar tender work his magic! The place is big enough for 20 maybe 30 people. There's several couches positioned around for a close intimate space. The place feels homey and the lighting is right for the atmosphere they're trying to create. Several repurposed fridges are now used as beer and wine fridges. A nice touch to the vintage feel of the place. From the outside, the place looks like any other house. Get ready to be surprised, come check it out! read more

This place feels like being transported to a space and time when bars were meant for conversation, laughter, and chillin. Bar tender asked what I wanted even though I was pregnant. We stuck with the nonalcoholic variety which was delicious. read more

What a great spot! Drink menu is creative and tasty. Atmosphere is everything; it's chill and sophisticated. Has that dark room feel that's great for a date night to cuddle up with your partner. Not a loud place so you can easily talk to each other. I like it more for a date and not so much a group outing. With the decor you have some many things to look at it's hard to not look around and venture into the different rooms. The bar tenders will come to you for ordering but you can also go to the bar. Looking forward to coming back and enjoying the patio-hopefully the weather will be beautiful. read more

First time here last night. My boyfriend and I came here and it was such a elegant setting. Took me back to the olden days with the vintage decor and classy atmosphere. Tables had freshly picked flowers. The drinks are all unique. We got the Ethereal cocktail and the Pastis. Cost was $7-12 for cocktails. Worth the price! The drinks were lovely and strong. Great environment and quiet when we were there. A wonderful setting to play chess :) will be back! read more

Let me start off by saying that this is one of the coolest bars I've ever been to! We came here for the first time yesterday (Valentine's day) whilst on the search for cocktail bars we haven't been to yet in San Antonio. The ambiance is a 10/10 and so were the drinks. I've bartended for a few years in Houston and I was stumped by at least 60% of the menu, in a good way. The French & Italian style cocktails really pushed us out of our comfort zone and we enjoyed four extremely tasty and interesting drinks. Sean, who was behind the bar, was super nice, helpful and knowledgeable when it came to any questions regarding their plethora of liqueurs and fortified wines. Benjamin, the owner, was extremely helpful and personable as well. This is the perfect date night spot or fun, unique place to try out with friends. Definitely returning and will be one of our favorite new spots to grab a drink in San Antonio. read more

Loved this place, great service and even better vibes and music. Got everything I needed from this spot, will definitely come back sometime!

Loved it! Small intimate setting. The bartender answered questions about the liquors. I was curious about absinthe. He fixed me a wonderful cocktail. It tasted just like black licorice, which I love. read more

I happened to walk by this place. An old dilapidated house with a sign outside. Little did I know i was about to have the best cocktails of my life. I've lived in NYC for a number of years, have had cocktails all over the world, and this place is one of the best. The atmosphere, ambiance, and unassuming exterior were just cherries on top. We had the bananas foster and painted lady. Incredible cocktails. Not to sweet, great flavors that complemented the liquor. I would come here all the time if i lived in San Antonio read more

This is a hidden gem in San Antonio. You will love the atmosphere with a classy vibe that reminded me of a 1920s movie balanced with the very comfortable vibe of the 1970s. The drinks are delicious with unique concoctions that will satisfy any craving. Sadly I did not take pictures. I had the Banana Fosters drink and highly recommend it. It's a little hard to locate and parking is limited but it is worth the effort to stop in. You'll be on the lookout for what appears to be a tiny house with a green porch light. read more

Ok came in for private event... First I must say, I LOVE the design and layout. It's different here with an eclectics touch! They are environmental friendly. They wash their linens in house. They don't use paper coasters either! I was given this fancy doily as a coaster. It was beautiful. The back was ideal. I felt like I should've been in a french cafe somewhere. They do have cats! Be mindful of that- especially if you have allergies. They do just kind of sit where they like. The drinks were really good. This is definitely somewhere I would return to. read more

I enjoyed the Yelp event at Pastiche. The ambiance very unique and cozy. Benjamin was a great host and entertained a lot of conversation with multiple guests to get his concept across. I really like how chill and away from the norm it was. The outside patio is very private and old town like. Felt like I was on the farm in the country having a drink. I am not big on mixed drinks but they do have many unique drinks on the menu. read more

We had so much fun here last night. Dom was our bartender and he was so knowledgeable about every ingredient and answered all of the questions we had. The drinks were amazing, they were very thoughtfully made. Pastiche is in a renovated home, you would not expect the decorations and ambiance inside from a little house on the street. We will 100% be back, and I recommend you go as well, best espresso martini i've ever had. read more

It's one of my top five places to go to for great drinks and conversations. read more

Went for the Yelp Experience and enjoyed the hospitality from Benjamin and his staff. Walk into an open house that has pleasing decor with and seating that encourages conversations. The place is a throwback to Parisian bars that would have background music that compliments the mood. As you walk down the hall, the door leads to a back area that is shaded. There are tables and seats in the back, along with house cats that are friendly. It doesn't seem you are in downtown with doors set up as the fence. During our event, we got to try different drinks and snacks. I didn't get them all, so will review what I tried (even though everything looked incredible!). Started off with Bread Wine that had grape Brandy, Genever Gin, Rancio Sec, Byrrh, rye bread and raisins. The 1st sip does remind you of bread as a liquid form and took me back a little, but the taste grew on me. The next drink was Refresco de Limao e Cereja that had vodka, Kirschwasser, Ginja, lime cordial, fresh lemon and sparkling water. This was my type of drink and would be great on a warm day. The last drink I tried was the Bloodless Mary. This had Aquavit, Kümmel, Basil,eaau-de-vie and tomato consommé. It reminded me of a pickle juice drink, but without pickle juice. I like bloody Mary's and enjoyed this drink too. The other two drinks that were served were Tokaji Cobbler that has Late Harvest Tokaji, Raspberry Brandy, Brown Sugar, Fresh Orange and Lemon Meringue Pie that had Blanche Armagnac, Sauternes, Lemon Curd, and Egg White. Everyone said the cobbler was extremely sweet. I'm disappointed to not try the lemon meringue since it looked like a perfect after dinner drink. I will try that one next time! Glad to see another speakeasy in San Antonio and look forward to the area around Pastiche grow! Check out this place if you're in the area looking to relax and chat with your friends. read more

This is a lovely cocktail lounge. The barkeep was attentive and friendly. The decor is warm vintage and very inviting. The building is very old and for sure haunted. Ask staff if you want to hear a few fun stories. The menu has some impressive house cocktails, but you can also enjoy a classic. Beer and wine too. read more
