Recently we hosted our Morrissey After Party at Bang Bang Bar, following the former Smiths…read morefrontman's sold-out January 10th performance at the Boeing Center at Tech Port and honestly, we couldn't have written a better script. Morrissey hadn't graced San Antonio in over 10 years, with past cancellations and postponements haunting fans along the way. So when he finally returned, San Antonio Moz fans showed up and showed out. Despite multiple after-party options across the city, fans from Brazil, the UK, Canada, Japan, and all across the U.S. chose Bang Bang Bar as the place to be on a cold Saturday night. Hosted by local emcee Ricardo Moz and Apollo DJ, the night turned into one for the history books. Bang Bang Bar is easily one of Texas' best dive-lounge bars...the perfect blend of gritty and cozy. Great cocktail program, solid beer selection, and a vibe that just works. The décor leans heavy into a 1950s-60s lounge aesthetic, with intimate spaces like the Blue Room and Yellow Room, perfect for groups of 7-10. Low lighting, warm atmosphere, and zero pretension exactly what you want for a night like this. Bang Bang Bar consistently supports local and touring acts, spanning punk, alternative, and DJ-driven nights, and this Moz Smiths Disco was no exception. It was wall-to-wall classics all night long. Major credit to Phanie and the Bang Bang Bar management they rolled up their sleeves, brought in extra bar staff, and handled an overwhelming crowd like pros. Fans waited up to 45 minutes in the cold, with a line wrapping around the building, and the energy inside never dipped. As the host of Panic On The Streets, I'm incredibly thankful to Bang Bang Bar for helping us pull off one of the best after-parties we've done in years. Fittingly, 2026 marks the 10-year anniversary of both Bang Bang Bar and Panic On The Streets of San Antonio and what a way to celebrate. Bang Bang Bar has long been one of my favorite bars in town, and after this night, that reputation is more than earned. Can't wait to do another Moz Smiths Disco here. -- Panic On The Streets of San Antonio

We went back last Saturday and Lily was the sweetest bartender ever. She made us a Cosmo (strong as hell...like we like it). It's not a bar where you'll run into lots of people, it's a dive bar. Get to know your bartender and you'll find that they'll be very attentive. We're all people and deserve to be respected. Drinks are not expensive AT ALL unless you're cheap. That's it-Sorry. I can't remember any other bar where I spend less than $100 on two people and end up trashed. I love The Fizz Bar & Lounge

This was on a Wednesday and it was all walks of life and all types of music from classic to new. I walked in to an older gent who was killing it to some Al Green, "Let's Stay Together" and it was smooth as butter just like the vibes here. The night only got better from there. I tried it during the later afternoon and the vibe was even more chill. There were some regulars and we chit chatted about where we were all from and funny Cooteys stories. I played some music from my seat on TouchTunes and overall had a very relaxing time. Others were playing great jams too and wow I can't remember the last time I heard Beach Boys. But I'm here for it. Just a heads up.. This is one of those spots that charges a $20 holding credit card fee. But atleast they gave me a heads up instead of throwing it on me last minute and giving me the choice of cash. Bathrooms were very clean and well kempt. This place knows how to do fun right.

The Green Lantern was a pretty good experience overall, though it wasn't exactly my scene…read more The place has a more preppy vibe than I typically go for, and the drinks were definitely on the pricier side. That said, the venue was busy, energetic, and clearly popular with the crowd that was there. The highlight of the night was the live band. They were fantastic and brought a lot of energy to the room. The music really elevated the experience and kept the atmosphere fun throughout the evening. It did get pretty crowded, so if you're looking for a quiet place to have a conversation, this probably isn't it. But if you're looking for live music, a lively crowd, and a night out with friends, you'll likely have a good time. Not necessarily my favorite hangout spot, but still a solid experience.

There's a huge satisfaction in sitting right up on the barstools screaming for another round while there's good vibes and music blasting all around me. You also just can't beat these prices. There are specials almost every night of the week (Whiskey Wednesday, Draft Tuesdays, etc). Cocktail menu is diverse and delicious. Servers are just the right amount of kind and talkative. Also, live music??? Friday and/or Saturday nights. This is THE perfect bar for me. Whether I want to meet some cool people, play my favorite songs on the jukebox, listen to some local bands, catch the game, or ask the awesome bartenders to play family guy for me
