“ This place was so much fun for st Patrick's Day. They had a DJ on one floor, a three piece band on the patio, dueling pianos in one room, and karaoke in one room. Drinks were cold and fast. So much fun. Thank you! ”
“ Had an awesome time at Pat O’Brien’s in San Antonio! Drinks were great, but it was the staff who made it so enjoyable! A BIG Thank You to Xavier, Mike, Quest, and Julia! You guys are fabulous! ”
“ Hands down it ended up being my favorite restaurant in San Antonio while visiting. Originally I expected Irish cuisine, but walking in and seeing German beer steins hanging from the ceiling only intrigued me further. Then when the menu had options like Gumbo and Jambalaya I was hooked! I tried both dishes and they are delicious. The Gumbo is a must try! The patio was great as well, with live music nightly. I had the pleasure of listening to "Island Mind" play while there. Service was amazing and attentive and was great at suggesting options. If I return to the area again, I'll definitely be visiting again. ”
“ We usually sit on the patio listen to live music. The atmosphere is lively, staff is friendly and attentive. There is a pub menu, we have not ordered but portions look plentiful and appealing. Bartenders are helpful and experienced, drinks are perfectly balanced. Beers are cold. There is a house specialty that's served in a HUGE hurricane glass that looks like would be fun to give a sporting try. We did see a table of 9 that were unsuccessful. Lol .. ”
“ Great place to get off your feet, listen to live acoustic music, watch a game on TV or order a light meal off the menu and try one of their tasty cocktails The hurricane is very good, it's made with 151 rum and balanced well with fruit punch, plus you can keep the glass if you wish to do so. The vibe here when I went was totally chill, people hanging out, having a good time The staff here is nice No parking Might be tight for wheelchairs or assisted mobility ”
“ Gabby and Mike are the best bartender I have ever had!! They were so accommodating to my every need, they open the doors so we could enjoy the guy at the piano, they made my drink perfect, got me chips when I said I was hungry, told us where we could get smokes and joked around to make us laugh!! This is the first time we are in San Antonio and the best bar by far! I would recommend this bar to anyone that comes here and trust me we have went to a lot of different bars here! I have never experience the hospitality they provide anywhere else and we have traveled many places in the USA! ”
“ Great food and service. We enjoyed the live music however, it was a bit loud. We would have preferred to sit outside on the patio, but the music was too loud for that. The musician was very good though. ”
“ Ordered grilled salmon - that one was the best one I've ever tried. My husband had blackened ribeye steak - he loved it too. The waiting time was about 15-20 min. Would definitely come back ”
