The assistant manager/bartender, Reed listens in on the bar talk and if he disapproves of a patron's conversation, he will ask you to leave. He seems to forget his place as a server. I don't know about you but it kind of muddies the waters to interject your personal opinion on private conversations. As a bartender, he is to remain neutral and has no place moderating bar talk. If you patronize this place, be prepared to be censored and be prepared to be treated like dirt, where the help acts like they are doing you a fucking favor. read more

Main Street Bar - Former Patron of Main Street Bar. - Sports Bars Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Cool place with a great patio. I recommend the drinks but the food all seems to be of the frozen/fried variety. The good thing is that the staff do not try to sugarcoat it, and it's priced fairly for what you get. The atmosphere is lively and the location convenient. read more

Great place great people, trivia on Monday nights. Cheap shit Mondays $2.25 wells & domestics

Friendly staff. Great prices. If you're hungry they also offer a great tasteful selection of fried bar foods. It's no restaurant, but that's not the point. But if you want entertainment, you definitely need to stop in. Come as a stranger and leave as a member of your family. A great neighborhood hangout. read more

Sierra is the best!! Cheap drinks and amazing atmosphere!! Service was AMAZING!!! Will definitely be back!!

Great service from Reed always! Great for a quick stop after dinner or to play pool. Love the vibes and people found there.

Hidden secret. Great pub food, exceptional good-hearted service, fantastic prices, if you don't come here you should ask yourself why not. Did I mention they have Yueng Ling on draft? I'm not special, but I don't review often unless the place is worth it, do as you please. read more

Main Street Bar - a pint of beer on the bar - Sports Bars Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Just met a friend for some drinks! Service was great. Just juke box music. Smoking outside on patio

I am happy to say that this visit in comparison to my FIRST visit on St. Patty's Day 2022 was a lot better. For instance, the staff didn't throw us out. Last time they asked my whole party to leave without any explanation but enough about that. This visit was chill, and filled with good vibes. The "Dude" bartender waited on us, he was cleaning the tables to make sure our area was clean, and brought us our first round and came back in good intervals to check if we needed refills. I ordered fries and they were what you would expect at a dive bar, served with the right amount of seasoning and cooked well enough. Couldn't ask for more. I was very much satisfied with the food and the service. I look forward to my next visit. I would have given a 5 Star but the dart machines were both down and couldn't be used at all. The staff explained why, and of course I understood. read more

Honestly, you can't go wrong with your local bar. Perfect spot for Sunday Funday or even after work or workout (usually in my case) spot! Friendly bartenders, great bar food! Those fries are amazing! Great live music and the outside patio is always awesome! Favorite bar to hit up any time. read more

Great drinks! The bartender made me a drink to my liking when they didn't have what I originally wanted. Chill vibe, read more

Main Street Bar - Peach Mule & Blue Moon - Sports Bars Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I had driven by Main Street Bar plenty of times, and it seemed small.. run down...almost too divey if that's a thing. Or more like it just wouldn't be my cup of tea. Boy.. was I wrong. It's a nice, quaint, neighborhood bar, that definitely needs to be judged once inside. The bartenders are prompt and super friendly. The inside of the bar has about 10-15 tables, and then stools around the bar. There is a nice large patio as well. They do offer bar food, which I did not try. There was a shuffle board table inside as well, and plenty of TVs. They have been around for like 30 years! They did have house infused liquors as well, but I just went with my usual, and ordered a beer. Which was served to me in a koozie! Whoa. You just won my heart, Main Street Bar! We came in on a Saturday night, they were going to have a band, and my MIL was looking for some good live music. The band had a nice little set up, there is a small stage where they preform. I am under the impression there is live music every Saturday, different bands. It was definitely busy for a Saturday night, but not too packed, still enjoyable. Definitely a dive bar. Different specials offered each day! And a comedy night! read more

This was a good little bar to finish of the night at. The crowd was thin and they had two bartenders that made sure you always had a cold beer in front of you. They also have an electronic jukebox that you can download the app for and control it from your phone. They also have cool coasters they put on your beer. Good place to finish out the night or just go and chill. read more

Do not let the quaint location of this place fool you. It's been around for many years and has quite the following. Word of mouth and hopefully my review will bring this place out! We went on a Sunday. They have happy hour all day. Different rules for different days. Food is limited to fried mozzarella sticks, fried pickles, fried chicken strips, French fries etc. One is allowed to bring your own food if you want. The noise level was very acceptable. Service impeccable, thanks to Sierra, the bar manager. My cosmos were very well done. Friendly patrons. Nice patio, except for the 102^ which made it unacceptable for me, since I don't handle the heat very well at all, with no fault to the bar! Definitively a place ( 3.5 miles from my house) I would return to, very soon....! read more

This review is for other bands that might be thinking about playing at this venue. Directions: Finding the place is pretty simple. Directions on the web appear to be accurate. It's located in the angle of the Downtown Wetmore Shopping Center. Load-In: Load-in is average to convenient, depending on how close you can park. You don't load in through the front door. There is a side door right by the stage. Use this. If you're lucky, there will be an open parking space right by the stage door and you'll only have about a 10-foot carry. At worst, you can park parallel to the Family Dentistry building in the middle of the shopping center. As long as you have some sort of wheeled conveyance for your heavier gear, this isn't a very long carry. Note that there is a ramp to the left of the wheelchair parking space to facilitate getting your gear over the curb. If you park in the wheelchair space, you'll be right in front of the door to the stage. Stage: The stage is on the small side. A trio should fit okay, and even a four-piece could make it work, but you will probably not be able to keep your entire PA on the stage. We ended up putting the stage left column on the far side of the stage door and the stage right column around the corner from the bathroom. This means that you will need to make some sort of provision to allow people to walk over or under your speaker cables. On the stage right side, we were able to toss our speaker cable over the top of the bathroom wall and have it come down behind the PA column. In front of the stage door we used a floor cable protector, firmly taped to the floor. The stage is well made, about a foot high and obviously built by someone who knew what they were doing. We found no soft spots, trip hazards or vicious resonances. Note that there are only four electrical receptacles: two on the wall in the middle of the stage and two on wall at stage left. This means you can only plug in a total of four cords. Lighting: The venue does have some stage lights, but you'll want to use your own since you have no control over the venue's lights and they're not very effective. Sound System: The club does not have its own sound system. Acoustics are about average. We noticed no serious echo or feedback issues. There were no problematic room resonances. Layout: The club is basically a standard rectangular room. Wisely, the stage does not face the bar, which is placed to stage right. This means your sound is traveling parallel to the bar and that helps with volume. One distracting aspect of the room layout is that the men's bathroom is immediately to stage right. This is distracting, but you can get used to it. Volume: We were able to bring our volume up to what we considered a comfortable level for a classic rock band with no issues. Comfort: We played here in July and the air conditioning was excellent. Very comfortable environment. Parking: Be aware that there is no tandem parking in this parking lot. If you have a trailer, you will need to park horizontally across multiple parking spaces. Miscellaneous: We attempted to do a Facebook live broadcast from this location but were unable to maintain an Internet connection. We had similar issues when one of our crew attempted to connect his laptop remotely to his place of employment. I suspect there is some sort of interference here. I don't think it has anything to do with the venue itself and it may just be a temporary problem. Venue Management: Pleasant and easy to work with. Overall: Main Street Bar is practically a San Antonio institution and one of our favorite places to play. The clientele is well behaved, enthusiastic and loves to rock out. We look forward to our next gig here. read more

Main Street Bar - Bar area - Sports Bars Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Sierra was the most hospitable bartender I've ever had the pleasure of meeting! We had a team outing for my company and Main Street Bar was able to host twenty plus individuals while still servicing their regular sfanatically! I would recommend this bar to anyone looking for a place with live music, pool, darts or even looking for a homely back yard feel. Bonus: The food was 10/10 read more

Love my little neighborhood bar! Not much going on during the week, but live music on weekends. Bartenders are always friendly. They have some in house infusions and cocktails, definitely check those out. Plus the usual 2 part drinks (whiskey and coke, gin and tonic etc.). There is a huge patio as well as plenty of seating inside. It's just a good neighborhood bar to hang out with friends. read more

Main street, is another institution in this NE side area. It may change owners and get the occasional make-over, but it will never go away. This place stays strong because of the regulars... you can tell who are the regulars. I haven't been here in over 5 yrs and I swore I still saw the same people from way back when. They revamped the outdoor area by adding pretty Target outdoor furniture with free flowing drapery. The inside is about the same, maybe they resurfaced the table tops. I remember they used to always have munchies, i.e. nacho bar, hot dogs, any kind of cheap fare. Tonight there was no free food, but hey if you're that hungry they sell bags of chips. The drinks are usual dive bar price between 3-5 bucks. Here's the worst of it, this is usually done because owners don't trust their bartenders............ METERED POURS. Oh how the bar industry comes to a grinding halt. Yep, no extra tip of the bottle, just a nice 1 ounce pour for your vodka/cran. So I suggest stick to beer. I know they have live bands and they have other activities, however, I'm pretty sure you have to call or go early to find out what's on the event board for the evening. I went on a Saturday and there were no bands, just the jukebox. read more

Horrid and nasty service. I can't believe how rude she was as well as substantiated by the older crowd who hold this establishment up. If you are a veteran don't expect amy respect from the new bartender. Never will we come back again. read more

This is a chill little bar... I kind of liked it. I came here with a coworker for a beer. There were not many people at the time, but it was ok, minus the shady older men eyeing me at the bar. Oh well, it was early. Maybe it picks up more later in the evening. read more

Haven't been here in a while, but stopped in on Friday night for a night cap before heading to the house. Even though the place was slow (about 10 pm) the bartenders treated us very well. Saturday night we are told is live music night, and we are planning to return very soon read more
