    This place a cool vibe with all outdoor seating. Definitely a great place to have a drink. Lots of beers on tap from TX breweries. We had a great time playing trivia. The host was fantastic! Downside the food was not impressive. We got a burger and fries to share. The burger was ok but the fries seemed like frozen fries.

    Dog friendly!

    One of our favorite dog friendly places near the Riverwalk! The frozen margarita with the White Claw is so tasty! Love that the patio has misters to keep cool during the summer

    Fun outdoorsy hangout spot! My friends and I enjoyed each other's company with food and drinks at Elsewhere. The workers were so sweet and friendly. My party melt was perfectly ooey-gooey, greasy, and comforting. That plus a frozen mango margarita just takes away Monday's stresses!

    Been a while. Little disappointed as we asked for three different drinks and they didn't have them. Spot, hard to beat on the river. Ambiance and vibe, always a 5. Food from 3rd party, mmm mmm mmm !

    I have nothing bad to say about this place--at all. I went one time for a mother-daughter day and all I have to say is I LOVE THE ATMOSPHERE! If you live for the vibes (because me too!) this is your place to be. There are so many photogenic spots, the bathroom is super clean, and even that is such a "vibe." The food is a bit up there, but you can't go wrong when you're buying something to eat to avoid getting "too crazy," while drinking. They do have a good selection to choose from for both food & beverages. I had the pretzel bread and that, THAT- was the-bomb-dot-com. I love that they have a selection to cater to all customers; delta 8/9 for those that want to drink for a high, alcohol for those that want a buzz, virgin drinks for those that want to take in the scenery, and they even include your furry friends in case your dog is thirsty (or hungry).

    This was a great spot for a meet up with some classmates. The venue has plenty of outdoor seating near the Riverwalk and is an open area with tons of tables, chairs, and places to grab very mixed drinks beers on top and generous portions of food. I tried the chicken tenders and the serving almost looked like it was a mistake . I assure you it was not. They are just great about making sure you get your bang for your book when it comes to food. My classmates and I had a great time, literally just sitting and chopping it up versus being in a classroom . By the way, there's plenty of soft drinks and also healthier choices on food. All you have to do is scan the QR code at the table. All in all, it was a great time and definitely worth a stop by if you are with a group of friends or just looking to take a moment from walking

    Swing by the river...
    Ken S.

    This is such a relaxing place to visit, I will definitely be back here again...and especially now that the temperatures are lower, I can see myself sitting on one of there swings by the river while enjoying an adult beverage...no need to get up from your sit just scan the online menu and place your order for some food or drinks...they provide ice water and ice for those who prefer to drink good old water or for you four legged friends as well...they seem to be pet friendly as well... This place has such a calm and relaxing mood to hang out...hopefully next time I visit will be in the evening...I can also imagine being here during the Christmas holidays with all the Christmas lighting...

    Super cool, off the beaten path, spot on the quieter section of the riverwalk. We were so glad we stumbled upon this place. The ambiance is fairy like and ethereal. They have cool decor, like giant dinosaur landscaping, hanging florals, and Chinese lanterns. Seating options include picnic tables, couches, swings, and hammocks. They also have a cool slide! They also had a band while we were there on a Sunday afternoon, which was awesome! They have a large drink menu, as well as food and a stuffed cookie and ice cream shack. I had a frozen strawberry margarita and it was boozy. A bunch of their cocktails are quite strong at 17% ABV. We did not try the food, but it looked good. You order at the counter or from a QR code at your table. It was a really chill spot to relax and enjoy some drinks along the riverwalk. Family and pet friendly. It is also super close to the museum of art (and the old town trolley stop if visiting the area).

    Great place to hang out with friends, grab a bite to eat, socialize, and listen to music. Friday and Saturday nights are all the way live. It's such a great addition to the community. Check their website for events happening Monday-Sunday. There's a whole lot going on and will keep you entertained. We ordered food from Elsewhere Kitchen and got the Impossible Not A Burger, it was pretty good. Loved the spicy brown mustard. And the Nashville Chicken Sandwich was amazing. Loved the red bell peppers and the Nashville Oil & Dust. Delicious. The surrounding area is beautiful, especially at night. It's perfect for couples who enjoying holding hands while taking a stroll. The twinkle lights, sounds of nature, and music sets the perfect tone. Or, if you just want to sit and relax, sip and beer and take in the scenery, Elsewhere has these cute swing chairs that give a perfect view over-looking the river.

    Omg this place is so nice and beautiful! It's a Thursday after noon and there's really no one here which is is interesting! It's such a nice scenery and the flavors are so amazing ! Everyone is super nice and informing

    The ambiance of this place really stood out to me first. It is so relaxing and chill. Loved the option for THC infused drink and the swings that over look the riverwalk. Everything is so whimsical and interesting to look at. I love the vibes here I could hang out here all day! Only thing is, the food is a tad bit on the expensive side.

    We decided to stop at Elsewhere Garden Bar & Kitchen as it was on the way back to our hotel from the Pearl area and looked like a fun little stop. The decorations are very fun and colorful and really draw you in. As we had a big breakfast and had dinner plans, we decided to split the grilled chimichurri chicken sandwich and then each have a drink (a margarita for me). There are two separate lines for food and drink orders so we decided to start at the food line. The line went quickly and the gentleman at the counter was very friendly! We then ordered our drinks and realized they also had games so we checked out a little card game to play. The drinks were ready first and we just picked those up at the window. For a plain margarita with just a salt rim, I thought it was an odd color and that it also tasted a bit weird but luckily it wasn't a bad weird. The sandwich and fries it came with were delicious (it's easy to get sauces and silverware at the self serve area). All in all, this was a fun experience and we were really glad we stopped in.

    Ask the Community - Elsewhere Garden Bar & Kitchen

    Do you serve food until closing time?

    Always 30 mins before posting closing

    Is this a 21+ spot?

    Nope! Family friendly! They even have a kids play area/slide in the back left corner

    Does this place have TVs to watch sports? I'm looking to get a group together to watch the basketball game and want to make sure there are good TVs?

    They have one spot where they typically project the current game on a large wall, but it's a bit out of the way and it's the only "screen".

    Where is there free parking?

    There are free parking spots along the street but you've got to walk a bit but not far.

    Do you have boiled crawfish?if so price per lb

    As far as I know, they dont

    Don't think so but daily drink specials

    Does this place allow kids?

    Yes, we are all ages, all the time

    Does the bar play music?

    Yes.

    Do they have big screen tvs? Hoping to watch some major sporting events here.

    We have a very big projector

    Is this where luxury used to be?

    Yes

    Any reservations needed?

    No reservations needed however it can get packed. We got there around noon right after they opened, by the time we left at 2:00 ppl were looking for places to sit.

    What's the parking situation here?

    Some off street parking. Pretty easy to find a space

    Do we need to make reservations?

    No 🙂

    Can you smoke cigars there?

There is a drink for every drinker here that includes non-alcoholic (NA) drinks as well so don't be shy. If you see something on the menu that calls you get it. Your drinks will be carefully created right in front of you and with the freshest herbs (like lavender and dry fruits) and juices you can find on this side of 281.

On a day when the restaurant had only two occupied tables, it was difficult to understand why our food took approximately 45 minutes to arrive. Unfortunately, the delay became more understandable when we discovered our order had been swapped with the other table's. Mistakes happen, but what followed was far more frustrating than the error itself. When we politely pointed out that our order was incorrect, the staff argued with us and insisted that the dish matched the menu description. In doing so, they made claims about menu items that were simply untrue. Rather than listening to customer feedback or attempting to resolve the issue, the staff became defensive and offered no meaningful effort to correct the mistake or improve the experience. We then asked to speak to the manager and that took another 10-15 minutes for her to simply come and remove our plates from the table. As for the food, it was acceptable at best. Nothing was particularly memorable, and certainly nothing justified the premium pricing. For the quality delivered, the menu feels significantly overpriced. Good restaurants are often judged not by whether mistakes occur, but by how they respond when they do. Between the slow service, incorrect order, dismissive attitude, and mediocre food, this was a thoroughly disappointing experience and not one I would recommend for tourists or locals.
