We went for NYE, and it was fantastic! We had many drinks and had the crab tacos & the pork sliders. They brought out hors d'oeuvre throughout the night and they tasted great! They also provided champagne to toast for midnight! The live music was good, she seemed a bit nervous or maybe not prepared, kept apologizing for her phone signal, kept asking for requests, played different genres, but overall she sang good. We definitely enjoyed the ambiance, the service and the entire night! read more

Unprofessional bartenders. The drinks are substandard. The service is pretty bad as well. Do not recommend this place.

This is a pretty nice place with relaxing music. It's just better with live music. It's got got a nice ambiance that's perfect for a smaller group because it's meant to be a quieter environment. Food, drinks, music, and staff were all fantastic. read more

Great, chill place for a drink. What makes it special though is the bartender! Rob was amazing. Not only did he make delicious drinks he also told us about all the other places we should try while in El Paso. He introduced us to drinks not on the menu based on our favorite liquors. Can't wait to come back to this place next time I'm in town. read more

The good is it's a nice place but we stopped in with two couples to have a quick drink after dinner. It was empty inside, but then they asked if we had reservations we didn't we advised them. We were only going to have one or two drinks they will not let us sit inside, even though the place was empty, saying that we needed a reservation, quite disappointing so we went to the hotel to have a drink read more

Excellent ambiance, great drinks and amazing lounge singer on the weekends! There's a few great spots in El Paso and this is probably my favorite! I was looking for something unusual to do while in town and I saw this on Yelp! After a fantastic meal next door at Barrio, I strolled over. It was quiet but the music and the atmosphere were exactly what I needed. The cocktails are creative. The Buena Vista is my favorite. Tequila, grapefruit bitters and soda was refreshing on a warm day and the Freshberry Margarita with blackberries and raspberry hit the spot. This place is casual but it is also a great place to dress up and to have a nice date. The phone booth is where you ring to gain entry. read more

The telephone booth buzzes a regular door the ambiance is low lit perfect for a date night with live entertainment. Drink menu is diverse with speciality cocktails worth trying I didn't have any of the food service is a little slow paced so be patient I think it's to create personalized experiences. read more

The food, service and atmosphere were impeccable! I highly recommended 1922 for an upscale date night.

Great drinks, very cool scenery it is exactly like a 1920s bar. The food was also very good. Live music and table service with some drinks. You should definitely make a reservation though, they do get busy. read more

Loved this place when I came a few months ago. Was dying to come back once I moved here. Standing in front of the place right now. Light was on. Rang the bell. No answer. Rang the bell, then light turned off. So I guess I'm just not allowed in?? 5 people have left while standing here. Won't bother coming back. Came downtown specifically for this. Won't do that again. read more

Excellent music, perfect drinks, beautiful aesthetic, and amazing ambience. Great place to spend the night.

Cool downtown spot with a cozy atmosphere and great live music. Perfect place to relax and enjoy the evening.

Loved everything about this place! Walking in the place was so cool, the drinks were amazing, check the website, we went on a Monday so lots of things weren't available on the menu but overall the mixologist was great, he knew the drinks and was able to recommend lots of amazing drinks! He was very attentive. Check this place out if you're in the area! read more

I. Love. This. Place. L.O.V.E. Where to begin? You have to use the phone booth for entrance. When I went, reservations were required. You ring yourself in and a hostess lets you through the door. As soon as you walk into this establishment you are transported out of El Paso and into the 1920s. The lighting, the furniture, the employee's attire - literally everything is transformative. I can't help, but smile just reliving the memory of being here. When you make your reservation, ask for a booth table. We didn't know about the booths and were sat at a small table in the center of the lounge. At first, I thought I would be uncomfortable, but the lighting is so well installed that even sitting in the center row it still feels very intimate and private. Our barista was knowledgable, flexible, and super crafty. She catered to our palates and even though we ordered drinks from the menu, she made alterations to make them more personalized to our liking. I really love this place. The fun part is also where this place is located. Excellent location to start the night and continue bar hopping. If you're in the mood for a night of time travel, then I'd suggest hitting up The Berkley & 1922 in the same night. It's about 7 minutes walking from bar to bar. Excellent spot for a date night. I think my review is very biased because I had such excellent company and such an amazing night. I'm glad 1922 is part of that memory :) read more

Awesome experience great drinks, food, and music. Different experience than what we are used to.

Very disappointed in this place! We will never go back there again!!! They advertise happy hour from 5 to 7 P.M. (See picture), making it appear like they have "happy hour" every day... They don't! Very deceiving, don't let them fool you! They're "false advertising." And if you make a reservation, they charge your credit card $10 to make the reservation... What is that all about? ‍ They're definitely not all that... Their menu sucks and their drinks aren't that impressive, just insanely overpriced. No wonder the place was empty when we went (On a Friday evening!), we should have known right then and there. read more

I will say the ambiance is what you are paying for when it comes to the 1922 location. It is intimate and beautifully decorated. The price range of the cocktails are on the higher end but if made with the proper punch then it should even out. We ordered The Goonies Punch Bowl for 2 at $20. The cocktail was delicious and very strong. I recommend 100% When asked if they had any appetizers the only thing available was a charcuterie board that was ordered next door. The wait for the board was over 20 minutes and when brought to the table the value did not match the quality. Do not waste your $20 on this! I attended an event dressed up as well and had the pleasure of seeing others dressed up which brought the place to life. My review is not solid, I will return on an active weekend to see if their services will be better. This will be in reference to drink, music, and appetizers. I do feel that locations downtown in El Paso need to remember that they are supposed to be higher quality all around than the rest especially if we pay for public parking! read more

We visited 1922 for the first time on a Saturday right at opening (5pm). I love the speakeasy/prohibition vibe and was super excited to try this place. You enter by pressing a button in an old telephone booth and when you enter, it's dimly lit with a 1920s vibe. The instructions to get into the bar are clearly laid out on the website, which is helpful! They do recommend reservations, but we didn't need one since we got there at opening. As far as ambiance, the music was a mix of older music with a more modern vibe. Think 20s, 30s, and 40s music but remixed. Not so loud that my boyfriend and I couldn't hear each other. The bartender who served us was really friendly and professional. I liked that he brought a bar cart to the table and made our drinks in front of us with fresh ingredients. I tried the Coco Chanel and the Lupe Vélez, which were both citrusy and tangy. Delicious! We had 4 drinks and with tip our total was about $60, which is about what I would expect for nice cocktails like this. They had a pianist playing around the time we left and had a food menu with things like charcuterie, crab cakes, cubano sliders, and even a Chicago dog. We'll definitely be back to try more drinks and to sample the food menu! Recommend for date night or night out with friends. As far as seating, it didn't seem like it would seat a large group, but maybe 6ish comfortably in a bigger booth. read more

Came out to this place on a double date, I was pretty excited because I love Speakeasies. I was a little confused coming in because the door was locked and I wasn't sure if the phone booth had a secret door or I had to call someone. Would of appreciated knowing that when I made my reservation because it was cold. But anyways not a big deal. The ambience was a bit too bright and noisy for a speakeasy. I didn't mind the noise as much as the lighting. Lighting is everything in a restaurant, let alone a bar. The service was okay as was the decor and aesthetic. I guess I'm a little biased because I have been to a lot of speakeasies out of town, so I guess my expectations are kind of high. I would of like to hear some cool music that went with the era, instead of today's hits lol, but I guess. Overall it was a cool little place, the drinks were good, nothing that really stood out to me or that I found to be unique. It was cool that they made the drinks table side, I did appreciate that. And I loved that they gave me the receipt in a bar book. I would come back for sure, maybe once they work out the kinks and stuff.... I came in with high expectations and at the end I just felt like the experience that a speakeasy should be was just missing and not there.... maybe next time.... read more

I REALLY wanted to love this place. Unfortunately we had a terrible experience. I even contemplated making a reservation online before we went but did not feel comfortable paying for a reservation (So strange..) but it was a Thursday so we figured we'd take a chance. When we walked in it wasn't very busy at all. There was one large party and maybe another 2 top. It took 30 minutes to even be acknowledged and another 30 before we ever got our drinks! Then when we asked for our check the book that they put the check in was literally tossed on to our table. I'm not even exaggerating. It was practically thrown at us. What makes matters even worse is that we were celebrating our wedding anniversary. So all in all a negative zero experience. I have no reason to ever want to patronize this place again. Thanks for a horribly memorable experience. read more

I visited not to long ago as a date. I truly loved the live music although it sucks you cant see the artist since they sit you in a secluded area. The music is not heard equally throughout the place unfortunately. Also our server Jordan was acting as if i was not there, i can count the amount of times she looked at me. I had to nearly get up every-time i wanted her attention before she could runaway from the table from asking my date what they wanted. She was rude at times. Not sure if she was having a bad day. I will not be returning, its expensive so i rather go where i will be treated nicely. Do yourselves a favor and dont go. read more

This is a great little hideout. The drinks are fantastic, and our waitress even remembered how I wanted my drink made. One of the few places where you can get very good drinks, and good food. read more

Very swanky spot! Word of advice though, do not let its abandoned outward appesrance fool you!! It definitely adds to the speak easy vibe of the place. I love how quaint yet fabulous its setting is. I mean, even their dang bathroom has a fancy ass toilet paper holder lol. Im sorry but it had to be said! So you can imagine how the rest of its decor would look! So im basing this off of my direct experience plus observance from friends. Customer service was wonderful and plentiful. The folks for table service or bar service are top notch! The drinks were also amazing and very elegent in their Roaring 20s vibes as well perhaps. There were plenty of nice booth tables, open tables, and spots at the bar that allowed enough space still for people in a party group to come together in. There was a cheese and salami platter which i didnt really care for. There was what seemed to appear and taste like toasted, plain white loaf bread. I feel it didnt compliment the salami and cheese. The way the parm was prepped was also to flaky to the point of crumbling. It wss difficult to add to your other fixings, let alone eat by itself. The prices also seemed very reasonable and happy hour is always a plus! I wouldnt mind having a night out the town starting it at 1922! read more

1922 - I mean, just look at this toilet paper holder! Lol - Cocktail Bars Near Me - El Paso, Texas

Great concept and ambience. The drinks were well crafted. The service was a little slow.

This place gets 4 stars for the drinking EXPERIENCE but fewer stars for the quality of cocktail. It's a luxurious drinking atmosphere and cocktails are made right in front of you at your table. But unfortunately, after two visits and trying multiple drinks, I must say that the cocktails themselves are not very tasty and are not as strong as I had hoped. The Coco Chanel and Harry Houdini were two drinks with interesting ingredients that I would taste great, but somehow the components didn't come together well. The Chicago typewriter is great for show, but the drink itself is mediocre. Worst of all is that they put "fresh egg white" on the menu description for some drinks yet the the mixologist pulled out a carton of pure egg whites in front of me to make my whiskey sour. I don't really care if it's fresh! But I do care when things are not advertised as they actually are. read more

1922 - Live Sinatra style singing by the Christmas tree. Wonderful and cozy holiday cocktail bar! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - El Paso, Texas

My girlfriend and I happened upon an antique phone-booth while strolling around downtown El Paso, and that's what led us to 1922! We loved the overall character of the lounge. Nice seating, well-dressed bartenders. There could maybe be a little more period-appropriate wall accents. The bartenders bring a wheeled cart to your table so they can make your drinks in front of you...but only if you order from the list of "Signature Cocktails!" For our second round, we ordered a couple of classic cocktails and were a little disappointed that we didn't get to see them made :( The drinks are interesting and well made, if not the *most* clever I've ever seen. Try the Al Capone - it's delicious. Maybe our one substantive gripe was the jazz musician playing during our visit. Don't get me wrong - he was quite good. But his selections were all very down-tempo, too-chill songs. In a lounge that is already dimly lit, a little more energetic music would go a long way! He did play a request of ours, and that helped! read more

My wife and I and another couple, decided to go out for a few drinks and ventured over to this new place (1922). We found it pretty interesting, and enjoyed the evening sitting in a comfortable booth and enjoyed our favorite drinks and conversation. The place seemed full with other couples having dinner. We found this place very low keyed, with good drinks and staff very friendly and attentive. We enjoyed our evening out. read more

Great place! Atmosphere was wonderful. Drinks were perfect, but it looks like there was only one waiter for the whole place, so there was a ton of sitting around. read more

Very cool place. The phone booth used for entry is a great touch. Tip: Order the Old Fashioned "smoked" and you won't regret it.

This place is worth going just for the experience. A "hidden" speakeasy with a 1920's feel, it doesn't get much cooler than that. It is a fairly small place, but they do take reservations. The drinks are good, a bit strong and pricey, but I don't think it's unreasonable since it feels like an upscale place. I loved that they made the drinks right in front of us, that was a really cool experience. I also love that they are always doing cool events here as well. I will say this place is probably better suited for more experienced drinkers, while our bartender was nice, it felt like there was an expectation for us to know more than we did. Overall a really cool place. read more

Very good bar that pours a stiff drink. A must stop if you're around the area. I will come in again if I'm ever in town. Thanks!
