    El scallywag
    Vanessa R.

    I've been wanting to try this place for the longest and it did not disappoint, I enjoyed EVERY SINGLE MINUTE of it, our server was amazing and so attentive, the first drink I had was el scallywag, it was ok but the bitters kinda have a cinnamon taste to it that I did not practically enjoy but the QUEEN drink OMGGGGGGGG it was amazing, so amazing I had to have 2!! I needed something to snack on and my neighbors were enjoying the chicken picatta dip so I ordered one, OMGGGGGGGG this dip was AMAZING, matter fact I'm still thinking about it right now, even if you're not hungry you need to get it and experience it because it's just that good, this place is definitely an amazing vibe for a date night or just a night hanging with your girls, it did not disappoint and I had an amazing time, I can't wait to return! Especially to get that dip!

    great vibe!

    Great space! The speakeasy feeling is very authentic. Good happy hour prices on a great list of cocktails and finger foods. Professional and fun staff make it a good evening for sure!

    Date night at sidecar was a hit! If you're looking for a speakeasy with a jazz band this is the place for you. Of course we had some drinks. The cosmo and paper plane were fantastic. Then ended with a razzle dazzle and an old fashioned . All the drinks were balanced very nicely. We had a couple of tasty snacks. The cast iron dip and the focaccia flatbread . We joyed both very much. Looking forward to next time

    A friend found this place after a quick google search and we decided to stop by for a round after dinner on Saturday night. It was pretty busy but we were able to snag a table for two. They had a live band that was AMAZING. I mean wow they were great. My friend and I were not even talking to each other because we were enjoying their music and commentary so much. I wish I could remember their name! Now let's talk about the drinks...WOW. Truly some of the best drinks I have ever tried. These are pro bartenders for sure. We came for a single round and ended up staying for three - I just could not get enough of their "DAAAAANGGG" drink. If you are a tequila drinker, do yourself a favor and get it. It makes my list of top 5 cocktails I have ever tried. Our server Margarita was so nice, and provided fast and polite service despite being busy. The speakeasy feel, the amazing drinks, the great service, and the live music made this place one of the neatest bars I have ever visited. A must try for sure!

    In from L. A & I was introduced to this gem by my friend who moved out here a couple of years back. We came here with her family and we all absolutely loved it. The ambiance, live music, and historic and intriguing hotel upstairs made this place memorable. Cannot wait to go back and revisit this location.

    The cocktails were so delicious! I loved the lighting of the bar as well, very moody and great for a date night.

    Sidecar is a beautiful bar with an impressive liquor layout on the shelves. The service was excellent--our server was kind, knowledgeable, and made great recommendations. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a top-notch experience!

    Went for a rare mid week date night to enjoy some piano and Whiskey Wednesday. The place was pretty packed when we got there but since we had it reservation, I was still seated promptly. Nick was our server for the evening. We ordered a bourbon old-fashioned and I ordered the knock knock. We also ordered a charcuterie board. The drinks came out pretty quickly, and Nick gave us water in the meantime, which was nice. The knock knock. I questioned if it was a correct drink because it had a honey like flavor to it too, which Nick explained that the whiskey that is used has that flavor in it. I never heard of that particular brand of whiskey, so I took his word for it. The drinks were quite good and the charcuterie board. It was also quite good. However, it took roughly 40 minutes to get the board and when I asked Nick how much longerit may take, he responded with if I had seen how many people were in the place when we walked in. He said that the kitchen is pretty busy and there are only two people back there. Like OK well, it's still been 40 minutes but I get it I guess. He said it will be out when it's ready. ‍ well... I'd hope so

    The vibe is so lovely here; nice and cool on a hot Texas day. The decor and live piano is incredible every time. Would recommend booking in advance because it is a small place and fills up fast. Our server and the staff were all very lovely and well versed in the menu. The food and drinks were on point and exactly what you would want for the price you are paying; so worth it!

    Come here for beautiful and delicious libations, an intimate setting, and a way to unwind. The drink menu is always rotating with seasons, and the bartenders can make just about anything.

    Smugglers Delight

    This place is the definition of a perfect speakeasy. The low lighting, the drinks, the atmosphere... it is near perfect. Would highly recommend talking to Nick at the bar. Super knowledgeable and artistic when it comes to his bartending abilities! Also the most perfect date night spot. Coffee & a smoke is a must try if you like espresso martinis.

You go way to the back and down a steep flight of stairs. My son, his wife, and I left my wife and grandbaby in the saloon and headed down. When you get down there, you are suddenly in a beautiful Tiki bar with so many amazing things to gawk at. It sort of felt like waking up in OZ. We were the first people there, so we got to sit at the bar and watch our drinks being made. They have about 15 or so different specialty tiki drinks. Each one comes in a particular piece of glassware. I don't know how the bartender keeps them straight. He was constantly pouring different things into a shaker. Then he would shake it and pour it into the glass that was already filled with crushed ice. One of the drinks even had a smoking cinnamon stick. My drink was really good. It was the Three Dots and a Dash. It came in a barrel and was decorated with a skull toothpick that had three cherries and a piece of pineapple to represent the dots and dash. It was super strong! I was ready to risk it all and go for another drink, but it had gotten packed inside the bar. We could tell the bartender was stressing. They really need two for times like that. My wife spends the night at my son's house in New Braunfels every Thursday to give them a date night. Evidently, this is where they always go. I can certainly see why!
