It's a cute cocktail bar with a good vibe. The drinks were a little bit pricey but good. I got the pop quiz which is their take on the old fashioned which I highly recommend and the dirty chai frozen which is also delicious. I don't believe there are servers as you order at bar. It seemed quite busy but I was still able to get the bartenders attention amid a large group in front of the bar. I would say it's very similar to kitty cohens in terms of cocktail quality and over all atmosphere. It's also dog friendly which is a plus since I love bringing my dog wherever I can. read more

Teddy's is a nice bar! I came here for a casual date and the ambiance inside is exactly that - it borders on low light/date vibes but also has features of a more casual spot. The drinks were pretty good, I had the moon tower cocktail which was a little sweet but still pretty strong and my date had a frozen cocktail which he also liked a lot. There is parking in the area (streets) that I do believe is mostly free; I ended up parking across the street at Este because I ate there first but there were lots of other cars parked around the place. You order at the bar; menus are on the table but you have to walk up/nobody serves you at the table. You also seat yourself. Bathrooms were quite clean too! Overall this place has a pretty good vibe; I have other go to spots around town I would choose first, but I liked Teddy's and if you live nearby/in east Austin it's a great option for a drink and chill :) read more

The inside is super cozy. It feels like you're in someone's living room having a nightcap--certainly a cute spot date night. The outdoor area is a completely different vibe. There's beach chairs and not much decor. Service was subpar. They have a pretty nice cocktail list. My friend and I ordered the cherrywood sour ($16) it was refreshing and not too bitter. There's parking in the back so no need to worry about that. read more

Cute neighborhood bar! It gets pretty busy, I think they could use more outdoor seating spaces. The music inside is a bit loud, especially since the vibe gives 'conversational space.' Go ahead and leave your tab open when you visit! The martinis are that good + cold! read more

Teddy's is it for me, gang! From the signage to the seating and cocktails, I am all over this bar. The atmosphere is romance meets private club but without that stuffy upper-crust feeling. Inclusive for sure. It's so relaxing there I really didn't want to leave. It's nice to find a place that makes people feel that comfortable. The bartenders are really fantastic mixologists. Cocktail artists if you will. Prices are similar to that of other bars. The difference here is that you are really drinking works of art. I can't wait to get back! read more

We came here at the end of the night as a turn down spot after a housewarming. It was pretty quaint, kind of felt like old-school Austin vibe. Drinks are a little pricey, but I guess that's what you get for getting cocktails read more

Great vibes and great drinks! If I lived nearby, I would be a regular. Sat on the patio on a late evening and it was so enjoyable and relaxing. read more

A nice addition to the neighborhood although i'll miss thunderbird (rip). The vibe is dark and sophisticated and the drinks are interesting and tasty. I liked the staff, the coasters, and the set up and location. We went at 5pm on a Saturday and the place really was popping, almost every seat taken. It got pretty loud as it became more packed, and was hard to hear eachother in a booth. The place is clean and tidy, and I enjoyed the vibe here. I understand it's a specialty cocktail bar vibe, but $15-20 per cocktail is just a tad iffy for me in terms of value, which holds it back to 4 stars for me when you're spending $35 for 2 drinks (that are small to average size). read more

Interesting spot. Deemed my buddy too intoxicated to be the there , which is fine. Found it interesting that the bouncers didn't let us wait for our friends to close and come with us. Felt rushed away like dangerous dogs. *bark. read more

Teddys has a great vibe, delicious drinks, and friendly bartenders. I love stopping by for drinks with friends or a quick nightcap

Wow! I just stumbled upon this local bar when trying to find a place to hang out after an event before driving north, and I am so glad I did. It's cozy with a variety of seating. Since I was alone, I sat at the bar. Megan was my bartender, and the woman is skilled. I started with the freezer door martini- dirty. It was so good and packed a punch. I loved that the glass was perfectly chilled. Little things make such a difference when it comes to serving a great cocktail. While happy hour was still going, I ordered a Manor Moontower. This drink was so good that I might have to plan more outings to this part of Austin just to have an excuse to go drink it. I wish I lived closer. I love velvet falernum, but hadn't had golden falernum before. I enjoyed the spice that it added to the drink, and I am a huge fan of mezcal. This really is a perfect summer drink, and Megan is a pro at making amazing cocktails. She was also very attentive. The bar doesn't serve any food, but she said I was welcome to bring in a snack. Always good to know. read more

Stopped in for a pre-dinner drink and had an excellent amaretto sour--appreciated the bartender asking about egg whites. Delicious cocktail, polished vibe, and a lovely spot for an elevated happy hour with friends. read more

Mixed emotions on Teddy's. Happy to have a chill cocktail bar in the neighborhood, but boy do I miss Thunderbird Coffee. Drinks are reasonable for an upscale bar of this type, starting at $13. Cool atmosphere. Will check it out again once it's officially open and see what the vibe is like. Hoping for a late night happy hour! read more

All was great. The drinks were delicious, Megan sneezed "achoo" back at me to make me feel comfortable after I sneezed, and god damn the Tally Me Banana. Cute neighborhood place with awesome bartenders and fun clientele. Would definitely recommend. Especially for those that sneeze. read more

Wow! I'm a huge fan of this new cocktail bar. Our bartender, Fabio, crafted some of the best cocktails I've had in a really long time. I ordered the paloma and something that I think was called the Cherrywood sour. The drinks were fresh and delicious! I also really liked the vibe of this bar. There was plenty of seating inside and outside. I think this bar is going to do well so if you want to check it out and avoid it being crowded, try going there on a week night. I can't wait to go back to try another cocktail. read more

A little pricey, but not too bad. The outside area is nice, but almost zero shade. This review is in March, but summer would be brutal outside. Good casual vibe inside. read more

Good vibes. Friendly team. Delicious drinks and the tunes are always on point. Came here for the first time on a recommendation from our bartender from Este across the street. read more

Love Teddys! Everything about it. The cozy, yet sleek lounge atmosphere is perfect for drinks before or after dinner. I went with a group of girlfriends on a Saturday night and we got lucky enough to find an open sofa, but it does seem to get pretty busy. I really liked the drink I had- the manor moon tower. Would love to go back and try more! read more

Comfortable environment, delicious well crafted cocktails. Can get busy & with craft cocktails it can take a minute, be patient the drinks are worth it lol I had the tally me banana & the Eastside paloma, both fantastic. Hubby did martini, classic and done well read more

Bartender couldn't have been more rude if he tried. Drinks were good, but so are they in other parts of town. Not worth wasting your money to be disrespected here. Even the team at the restaurant across the street were telling us about all their bad experiences there. 0/10 don't recommend read more

Food and service was great. Very cute place but extremely loud. Maybe it was because it was Saturday night. I will go back again.

I decided to go to this place with my girlfriend because I kept driving by it and it looked so cute! It's a super cool vibe especially for a date- very dark and romantic. There's also really comfortable couches. We got the Teddy's Club drink and it was so yummy. The drinks are pretty expensive so just make sure you come with enough $$$. Also a plus that they have corn hole outside. read more

Place is nice, but watch your credit card statement!!! On mine they altered the tip (turning a 1 into a 4) to raise the tip to a level so high that my credit card sent me an auto alert flagging the tip as unusually high. Fraud, not cool. read more

Went here on a Monday night at 8 pm with my boyfriend because we heard they have matchbooks and have been before and liked their drinks. There were a few couples at the bar and most of them had been helped except one. My boyfriend and I waited for 10 minutes without being acknowledged or welcomed in so we moved towards the middle of the bar and my boyfriend had to be the one to greet himself to the bartender who was an older dude. The bartender said "one second" and my boyfriend replied with "no problem, I just have a question". The bartender then snapped at us saying that he told us one second and then proceeded to explain to us in an aggressive tone that one second means he's busy and we needed to wait. It was so absurd and randomly aggressive that I felt compelled to leave my first ever yelp review. He seemed overwhelmed, so I felt for him, but at that point we felt disrespected and belittled so we left without buying a drink. You need to train for friendlier bartenders! Cute place, but horrible service read more

Untidy, Dirty glassware and empty drinks left across tables. No coasters , Unfriendly and under staffed on a slow night. Plenty of opportunities for improvement though. Welcome to our neighborhood. read more

Flew in from California and my friend dragged me out to this place. I was dead tired and looking forward to a good nights rest after dealing with the crazy airport. Megan C was able to change my whole mood! Not only did she welcome me with open arms, she was super knowledgeable and talented! Every drink was specially curated and hand crafted beyond my expectations! She was very friendly and helpful!! I appreciated her attention to detail and professionalism. She is the definition of excellent service and Teddys is very lucky to have her! Came in moody and tired, left with excitement and ready to explore Austin! Appreciate you Megan, thank you Teddys for employing amazing people with great skills! read more

Came in for drinks after we had dinner nearby. The space was really cozy and the music and vibes were great! The bartender Fabio recommended a specialty cocktail after asking me what I usually drink. Had a great time and will be back soon! read more

This place is awesome! Megan and Fabio were super friendly, hospitable and knowledgable. Some of the absolute best cocktails we've ever had. Delicious, original, never had anything quite like it. We had the Leona, Medicine Man, and Cherrywood Sour. Each more tasty than the last. Love the look of the place, the atmosphere, the decor, all around great vibe, great place to imbibe. Definitely will be coming back and more often! read more
