    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

    I've been here a couple of times and have always had a great time. The server/waitress was very…read morefriendly and knowledgeable on what they offered. They were happy to answer my questions and I was never made to feel rushed. The bar itself has an awesome vibe. It's divey but offer fancy drinks. 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!

    Another cool dive bar!! On day one of our golf trip, someone suggested the Thursty Turtle. Be…read morecareful when driving over. GPS may circle you around. I was fortunately to keep an eye out for the sign. We put a couple of tables together to seat the 8 of us. Cool vibe. We used to have turtle parties a long time ago in college. There's a large turtle shell in a display case which says---"Are you a Turtle?" Under it says "You bet your sweet ass I was". The answer is "you bet your sweet ass I am". Only after answering the turtle questions. Look it up. They had Voodoo Ranger on draft. Friendly staff. Even if the owner yelled at us for sitting too close to the entrance to the rest rooms. She was nice and sat down with us for a bit.

    The first time I came here, the blonde bartender asked me what my favorite color was. When I told…read moreher she brought me a cherrie bomb to try out and it was amazing! I love the vibe here. They definitely have a lot of regulars and bartenders who love what they do. The regulars here are playing a great variety of country, rock, pop and blues. I felt very welcomed here and learned some new drinks. They have several pool tables and a kind of natural vibe with all the flowers and turtles in the cieling. The last time I invited a friend...the regulars all knew my friend. The lighting is nice and dim. The outside area is a bit smaller but I'm ok with this. You probably will want to be inside for the dart, pool, and music action anyway. I will definitely come back.
