Strolling through the renovated Broadway area, we came across Idle Beer Hall & Brewery and glad we…read moredid. I had heard about this place but didn't know exactly where it was located. It is next to the Make Ready food hall and makes for a perfect 1 - 2 punch of activity. We arrived right at the tail end of Happy hour, so I order an Old Fashioned and found a spot at their outdoor patio. The patio is pet friendly and they do have live music. My drink was made well and made for a nice evening as the weather outside was nice and the live one-man band added some nice ambience. I can see why downtown residents would like to hang out in this area. Overall, I really liked the vibe of this laid-back icehouse and look forward to coming back to experience more.

The interior of Idle is very nicely designed with good branding and a great setting to hang out. It's spacious so it never feels overly crowded. We talked to one of the bartenders once who told us they are connected to Golden Gopher in LA, which we had been to in downtown LA. They always have sports on their large TVs. You can also order food from Make Ready food hall and eat there which is pretty amazing. They have some snacks you can order as well and once I went when they had a taco vendor as a pop up. So cute! Family friendly and they have a large outdoor space where kids can run around. They do have a cut off time when they become 21 and up. Parking is either on the street or a surface lot close by.

I just wish they would replace the tables and chairs that are rusty and get iron stains on everything lol but small thing for a great place.

I liked that they have plenty of seating, different stations to order drinks and food and a nice playground for the kids. They had a full bar, a nice selection of beers and lots of other things. It looks like they have events here, unfortunately we were there earlier in the day. We had a really nice time here and the service was great by all of the bartenders that serviced us. I would definitely come here again if ever back in S.A.

They load it up with tons of birria and cheese. The consome is hearty and delicious. It was about $30 and well worth it. The green salsa has a kick to it too. The service was friendly and very quick. El Camino always has a chill vibe and is a great place to come with friends to eat and drink. I will for sure be back here with friends for another birria pizzadilla. I also want to try their mangonada drink next time!

Recommend: Yes!…read more Food: Soooo many options to choose from and they all look delicious! You can get Aguas Frescas, pollo asada, tenders, Dinorrito, alcoholic drinks, and so much more at the food truck park. I chose Los Weyes de la Asada. I had a Mamon Taco and the mini taco as de asada. The salsa was on POINT! The Mamon taco was my favorite. It was so flavorful and the salsa just put it over the top. The mini tacos were good as well. The meat was tender and hardly any fat. Service:Fast and people were super nice. Ambiance: this is a great hang out spot! There is something for everyone. Lots of food trucks to select from, beer, margaritas, aguas frescas, plenty of seating, area for kids to play, and plenty of seating. It's not far from several parking areas as well as Idle Brewery and other spots. Check it out!

Fam, if you are looking for a Doc Browns type of night out, Broken Oak is not it. Listen, I totally…read moreunderstand new ownership/new vision. Sometimes it works very well for places (see Cooter Browns - Stetsons) and sometimes it doesn't. Broken Oak is new and bright and shiny. They have a few slot machine games, a pool table, a pinball game, and a kids basketball game that doesn't need to be there. We wanted to go on Saturday because the website specified there would be a "DJ and dance floor." Score! We love to dance and let's face it, the area only has country dance places - which I do enjoy, but we definitely missed the energy and music from Doc Browns. My mistake for thinking Broken Oak would be similar. There was no DJ and there was no dance floor. There were long high top tables all over, and one bar. There was a weirdly dark little upstairs area I'm not sure what was to be used for. At one point I asked the bartender if there was supposed to be a DJ and where exactly the dance floor was, and he said "I just started last night so I have no idea." Meanwhile the drinks we ordered were not great. I know the place just opened and maybe it was an off night, but a brand new establishment shouldn't have off nights on Saturdays, imo. It felt like just another mediocre bar/restaurant. My advice? Find an identity and be unapologetically that. What's the area missing? What can you offer that might be unique? It's not what you're putting out now, I promise. You've got a big, beautiful space - use it to its advantage. And maybe a refresher to the bartenders on what exactly this place is supposed to be.

La Tuna Icehouse is a San Antonio institution and should be protected at all costs!…read more This beer house was one of the firsts if not the first in the Southtown area. Regardless of all the changes that have been happening in this side of town La Tuna has stayed present and highly supported by all locals. I have so many amazing memories in this business and I do hope it stays open forever. They carry a wide variety of beer and other alcoholic beverages. They have also expended and have built multiple indoor spots where you can watch your favorite sport games. They also have a beer of the day deal which is amazing, and sell beer to go. La Tuna is always a fun time and great for anyone that wants to support local!

There is indoor and outdoor seating, two bars to get a wide variety of beers and drinks, and a la tuna grill also (you can order in the grill building which also has indoor and outdoor seating or at the bar area, which is a separate but very close building).
