A great neighborhood hang out, focused mostly on drinks and the big screen for games. The food is rather decent as well , make sure to watch for your order number as it is self-serve.

Chris Vega

A nice selection of beers on tap and bottle will keep most people happy. The Micheladas were tasty albeit small but will give Taco Haven (my fave) a run for their money.

Joey Pawlik

Best beer selection and incredible atmosphere in all of San Antonio. Like the facebook page or follow their twitter account for word on all of the specials/draft selections!

Ron Jeramiah

Best outdoor spot in San Antonio to hang outside and enjoy a cold one (or two). Pro tip: the Micheladas here are da bomb.com 💣

HRH Green Beer

Very chill ! Family & kid friendly ! Playground ! Good drink variety & food! Sunday’s check out DJ El Gato!

Melissa H

Awesome beer selection , all outdoors. Would be a great place to hang out in the evening, just not during the day where it is scorching hot outside!

Ron Jeramiah

Cold beer , friendly atmosphere , tasty snacks ...what else more do you need! 😀

Erin Fagan

A wonderful place to enjoy a beer and a snack with your friends and a pup when the weather is fine.

ᴡ Perez

There were a lot of beers to choose from but the bartender we had with the taps did not really have a lot of beer knowledge . I ended up with an ale that was very hoppy that I did not like.

Sean Mcseansean

Delicious beer selection and sangrias . Get a spot in the front if you want shade. Bike -, kid-, and dog-friendly.

Andy Keil

Patio is next level for San Antonio. Wide range of craft beers on tap and the only downside is no booze.

Betsy Farris

Great place to catch a football game or movie outside on their projector . Wonderful beer selection , great snacks !

Go for the GREAT beer and outdoor atmosphere..if u get drunk and are extremely hungry eat the food... Otherwise ur better off eating convenient store burritos .

Jason Durbin

Kid and dog friendly . The two don't always go hand-in-hand. Kids have a play area . Laid back atmosphere . Ride your bike over.

Dave Fields

The atmosphere in the front is really cool, and they play Spurs games on the big screen !

Awesome beer selection , more than 40 taps and more bottles that you can count.
