Stopped here for a quick drink. The specialty drink menu had a great variety of which I selected the Femme Fatale. I apologize for the blurry menu picture. The bartender/mixologist was great, personable, and made an amazing drink. There is plenty of space, both inside and out, depending on your crowd size. read more

The patio at the long goodbye is so nice. There's so many plants everywhere and there's plenty of seating. The happy hours is also pretty good. I was able to get this Miller highlife for three dollars and I noticed that there were plenty of awesome cocktails for a really good price as well. I will definitely be back! read more

The Long Goodbye - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

The Long Goodbye has been on my list of places to try in Austin for a while and it met all of my expectations. The bartender was super friendly and gave great recommendations. The drinks were good but the best thing I tried was the pimento cheese. There's not much indoor seating but there is a beautiful patio which worked out for my cool fall evening but I'm not too sure is the best for the Austin heat the rest of the year. There are a lot of plants and it's pretty shaded so I guess it shouldn't be too bad in the summer. Also, since I went pretty late on a weekday so there was plenty of parking in the lot behind. They tend to host a lot of events and share the parking lot with other businesses so I can see the relatively small lot filling up quickly. read more

Just awful customer service. Went there for the grand opening and they were understaffed and after hours waiting to pay for a drink was told they were out of the drinks they advertised. Gave them time to settle in and came back today since they advertised "$2.22 specials all day." Well it's 8:30pm and I came in and worked forever for their 1 bartender to tell me "we're out." No apology, no alternative option, just an explanation that they don't have what they advertised. Management clearly gives no fucks if I keep having the same bad experience every time I go here. I'll take my money elsewhere and hope this place eventually shuts down so an owner who cares can open something and put care into it. read more

Long Goodbye? More like a long hello where have you been all my life? I visited a few weekends ago for their vintage pop-up shop, which they host every other Sunday. The shop was impressive, with plenty of cool, cute finds that were reasonably priced compared to other shops around town. As for food and drinks, they have La Santa Barbacha serving tacos and Fleet Coffee to satisfy your caffeine cravings. Plus, there's an indoor and outdoor bar for those looking to enjoy a cocktail or beer. A few downsides: parking is limited, with only a few dedicated spots and mostly street parking. The tacos were tasty, but the wait was a bit long I would suggest an online ordering option would help speed things up here. Overall, I'll definitely be back, maybe for their weekday happy hour, to enjoy the retro indoor bar ambiance! read more

I really enjoyed this fun east side spot. There's so much room outside to just lounge and chill with friends. Inside is small, but in a good way. There's a good amount of bar seating plus some tables with semi-booth seating. I tried a signature cocktail, which was very good. Layered flavors and fun garnish. There were many different options and the menu changes so you shouldn't get bored when you go back all the time! Service could have been a little bit more efficient, but I wasn't in a hurry to leave, so all good. read more

Great spot for happy hour, large groups and patio seating! I recently went for a work gathering and it was perfect. The drinks were reasonably priced for happy hour and the palomas are delicious. I haven't tried the taco food truck near by but I'll have to check it out. The aesthetic and vibes of this place scream Austin and so this will be a place I take my out of town friends to. read more

I've been meaning to check out The Long Goodbye ever since they opened a few months ago, and had high hopes! My boyfriend's parents are visiting in November and love cocktail bars, so we figured we would check out Long Goodbye in advance in case we wanted to take them there. SO glad we vetted it beforehand, because we won't be taking them here. We parked in the neighborhood and then walked over. There's really cute seating outside which would be great when the weather is cooler. There is an employee sitting outside checking IDs, which is a bit strange, but I guess given the proximity to UT campus they have to worry about underage drinkers. Inside, there is bar seating and then a corner of little tables. We arrived at around 9pm and easily found a two-top table inside. We looked around for menus for almost 5 min and couldn't find one, and nobody offered to help. Eventually, after waiting at the bar for a few minutes, we were able to get drinks. I ordered the "In Cold Blood" and my boyfriend got "Trouble in Tijuana". I normally love cocktails, but what I got was unfortunately the worst cocktail I ever had. I kept sipping more of it, thinking it might get better. I stirred it, in case that was the issue. I genuinely could not finish it, it was so bad. I hate to leave negative reviews like this, because this is really only my individual experience. There are plenty of positive things about this place, but unfortunately we did not enjoy our experience and we will not be back. read more

Came here for happy hour on a Thursday with friends. The drink special was great but the line was long. Definitely plan ahead and order two drinks while you're at the bar. The outside seating was pretty nice and it's dog friendly. A great place to bring your pup and catch up with friends. read more

This is one of my favorite places to spend a Sunday Funday. The little outdoor cabana-style bar is where we like to hang out. Meet a lot of cool people that way. Super rad mixologists who are very accommodating and friendly. Cocktails are always above and beyond. read more

Love our local spot. Such a good place to sit outside and have a drink. We come here all the time in the morning for tacos and coffee, but this bar is a welcome addition for later in the day. Highly recommend you stop by this cute little complex for an afternoon! read more

This is a cool little spot on Manor road. We stopped here after eating brunch on a Sunday morning. They had several vintage outdoor shops setup and a couple of other spots you could get coffee and snacks. The bar is pretty small and cozy. They have a pretty small menu as well. I enjoyed my frozen margarita that I had. The service was good and if there isn't something on their menu the bartender was willing to make it. read more

The Long Goodbye - Frozen margarita - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

Love hitting up this place for a casual drink! Plenty of seating options except not too many comfortable ones lol, mostly picnic benches. The bartender was super nice and quick. The drinks are good and it's a beautiful location. read more

I wanted to like this place because it's so close.... But the drinks just aren't that good. We had the island old fashioned, retox margarita, rancher martini, and the trouble in Tijuana. The first two were the best of the 4, but not stellar. The old fashioned was decent. It was a nice flavor (nothing special). The frozen retox margarita was probably the best thing on the menu. It wasn't too sweet and it was a good marg. The trouble in Tijuana had a kick to it and the froth was nice, but still just okay. The rancher martini was the worst of them. It really tasted like it wasn't sure if it wanted to be a salty marg or a Smokey mezcal beverage... either way, I hoped for more. At least on Thursdays, aka Throwback Thursdays, they have $10 drinks which makes it more palatable. read more

Went on a mid Saturday afternoon. Good service, friendly server, high energy, fun environment with lots of interesting patrons. Will return.

The location and vibe is great, very small indoor bar, expensive drinks, expensive food trucks.

The new cocktail menu was amazing! I have been there before but this menu is out of this world. Seth is a genius behind the bar!

This place!!! This place. Thank gawd it's here! The bathrooms for one, are super cute I'm talking private I'm talking insane tile, I'm talking weird sink = pure sex. Waiting for a cocktail? Not real. The service is impeccable +++ the cocktail list is an absolute 47/1! I dare you to say different. Praise be Long Goodbye, so glad we said Hello! read more

The Long Goodbye has a great ambiance with outdoor and indoor seating, which is necessary for those hot summer Austin days. There is a food truck with delicious tacos and coffee on site as well. Sometimes they host pop ups- when I went, there was a cute vintage clothing pop up on site. read more

Great drinks! Very cool patio with convenient food and coffee options. Vintage interior design. Quick service! read more

This is the cutest spot and I always have wonderful service! All cocktails are fresh, innovative, but with the soul of old school drinkability. Gracie helped us the last time and she was such a love! Patient, made amazing cocktails, and just had such friendly attitude. Everyone should go see Gracie and drink something extra yummy! Great ambiance! read more

The bartenders Gracie and Seth were amazing. They were amazing to talk to, drinks were even better. Can't wait to come back again!!!

Bartender did not really engage. I was the only one there. I had to ask for water. Went in and was lucky to find out it was HH. Chill aesthetic and great environment outdoors too. The girl who I believe is a new was very on top of it. She asked me if I needed anything else quicker than the guy before her. The mezcal margarita was okay. The eggnog cocktail was okay. The amaretto sour was great Food next door at La Santa was great. Christmas decor on point and dreamy! Still recommend the vibe read more

Very cool decor and good cocktails. I like the outdoor patio facing Manor. Overall, great spot to relax and have a few drinks.

What a cool little spot to visit. Drinks were top notch made infront of you by professional bartenders. The food truck on sight is definitley a hit aswell. My group started in the intimate indoor bar lit by candle light with an ambiance that keeps the mood alive. We walked outside to the Long Goodbyes' second bar and had even more fun. Plenty of seating with a dog friendly deck and yard. Will definitely be back as it sits right downtown near plenty of food and other activities. Thank you ladies and gentlemen for a wonderful experience! Very classy! read more

I just love this little bar. What a great addition to the neighborhood. Happy hour is a must.

Don't listen to the fake reviews!! The drinks were not worth the price. Bad vibes for sure.

The drinks were fantastic and the ambiance was great for a casual Saturday afternoon. They were having difficulty keeping the inside lounge cool so it was closed, but the outdoor space is either well shaded, well misted/fanned, or both. Drinks were pricy but tasty and the bartender had great recommendations. It was a great experience read more

The design of the outdoor space is commendable. Wasn't a big fan of the excessive video surveillance. Not really something I want to be exposed to when I'm trying to relax. Overton window or not, not cool for an Austin joint. read more

Cool spot that I genuinely was super excited for, however, very unfriendly bartenders closing on 6/14. Not usually one to leave any type of yelp review but the service/vibes were so bad and unwelcoming that I feel I need to leave this and will probably never come back here unless its for the coffee or taco trucks. Told the first bartender that it was our first time visiting, trying to be met with some possible drink recommendations but was met with a scoff and passive aggressive "Okay?" instead. Like what? lol. Was just about to compliment her cute necklace too (it's still super cute, not sure if it was a rough day but starting out the experience like this made the rest of the time awful). Also the other bartender who gave us our drinks visibly rolled her eyes when we wanted to close our tab after ordering. They were not slammed inside at all and there was plenty of time before business was closed. So genuinely confused if this is the norm. Taco truck was playing some bangin music though. read more
