    Frozen Fresa- strawberry mezcal, and a curated off-menu cocktail by the bartender (mezcal and lemongrass amongst other things)
    Meg F.

    The mezcal cocktails are top tier! The frozen strawberry mezcal was recommended by a bartender and I'm so glad he did! It was perfect on a hot Texas day. Great ambience and music, as always. Definitely one of the best hidden gems of SA.

    Mezcal Margarita

    Stumbled upon this little gem after a night out with friends and happy I did. This little bar has such a great atmosphere perfect for socializing. There is a good selection of cocktails. I ordered the mezcal margarita which is kind of what this place is known for. So good!! The mezcal gives the margarita a nice smokiness that complements the citrus well! The staff is very friendly and inviting! If you're near the area I would definitely skip the crowded bars and give this place a try!

    I'm not sure how long this bar has been around, but it reminds me of old school bars where you could enjoy a night out without breaking the bank. I'm sure at one point that's what it was. They do have daily specials, but drinks can get pricy. The front of the bar looks a little run down. Once inside, you have your typical bar feel. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by the bar staff. It was during the day, so the inside of the bar wasn't busy, but the back patio was. They had a dj playing popular tejano, Cumbias, bachata. They also had a food truck on site which made it perfect for Sunday brunch. We took advantage of their mimosa set up. It included a bottle of champagne, orange juice, grapefruit juice and mixed fruit. I also wanted to try their $4 tecate light with Tony topper special. I'm glad I did. The tecate can is topped with tamarindo rim, a slice of pickle and Chinese candy. It does make for a good combination. Staff was always around to take your order. The only con is that the bathrooms were out of order and they had Porta Potty's. They were so gross. I held it and made it home, but that only meant that I had to limit my liquid consumption. Parking is street parking.

    A cozy bar I never knew existed. Tucked away on the corner of Brooklyn Ave and Avenue E. I've seen the neon sign quite a bit but never knew where those pics were taken. I think it's a perfect little bar for a quiet low key date night. I ordered a simple drink, staff was very friendly. The neon sign is very instagrammable. Worth the visit.

I'm visiting from out of town and I wasn't sure where to go to watch a boxing match. Thank goodness I came across Bar three twenty one! Plenty of seating and lucky for me it was not a busy night. Plenty of TV's including a huge (maybe 75 inch) in the middle. Not a bad seat in the entire bar. They have a full bar, my drunk was just ok, BUT I probably should have stuck with something more basic (I had a Henny sour). Definitely a good spot with a few arcades and a pool table. Check it out!

As I walked in, I was greeted by the lovely bartenders and found a seat at the bar. Inside is decorated very well with multiple TVs playing sports and music playing in the background. This is a full-service bar and remain open until 2am nightly 7 days a week. I went ahead and ordered a tall draft beer from the variety of choices they had on tap and also ordered a double shot of Lalo. The staff was friendly and kind while the operation was impeccable. Overall, I enjoyed my short time there that I just had to go back again and relive my unforgettable experience. Thank you, BAR, Three Twenty-One!

The food was not the best especially for the price. The drinks on other hand were amazing. My server Marah toke great care of me. Attentive, funny, and well knowledgeable.

Would come back for the drinks and her service. The food on other hand definitely could use some help.

    Update to first review below, rating updated from a 3 to a 5 star (drinks & bartender would get 10+…read morestars if we could rate that high): Saturday night: Went back for after dinner drinks at the Downstairs (a "speakeasy" throwback, look up the history of the place to see why). Drinks were AMAZING! Bartender Rob made the best Negroni I've ever had. I asked him to use whatever gin he thought best--result was an artistic smooooooth full-bodied drink. Told him when I was done I'd lick the glass if it wasn't considered so uncouth for a 'mature' lady like myself to do so Hubby's Buffalo Trace bourbon old fashioned was also outstanding. Rob was the bartender last night who did such a great job, and his work was even better tonight. We highly recommend The EsquireTavern for excellent cocktails. We love the long wood bar and high copper ceiling upstairs, but love the intimate speakeasy atmosphere downstairs even more. We'll definitely be back every time we're in San Antonio! First review, Friday night: Drinks were great (Manhattan and Bourbon Old Fashioned). REAL drinks, no complaints at all about those. And the bartenders were very friendly and helpful. Those aspects of the Esquire get 5+ stars from us. But the appetizers were not good, close to inedible. It was about 8:30pm or so, so maybe they were getting ready to close out the kitchen but the chalupitas with chicken tasted like rubber, and no flavor at all. The seafood platter had something in it that was breading with shell inside, but no meat of any kind. We couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be. The shrimp was good and the fish was good but those other things... We'll always love the drinks, the long wooden bar, and the ambiance at the Esquire Tavern, but we'll eat somewhere else and come here for before or after dinner drinks. (See update above to this review for when we returned the next night for after dinner drinks.)
