    Finally got a chance to drop in to try Maverick Whiskey. We went to the upstairs bar, which is small but cozy, and I ordered Homestead Old Fashioned with their Rye whiskey. The drink was well made and their Rye had a nice kick and wasn't overly priced at $13 for a house made whiskey. We had tickets to a show and couldn't stay longer but look forward to coming back and trying the food and other spirits.

    This distillery visit was long overdue. My husband and I visited the upstairs bar on an early Friday evening. They did an excellent job renovating an old bank into a distillery. I wanted to try a variety of spirits, so I did the whiskey and white tasting (rum, gin, vodka, bourbon). The gin was my favorite, it had a slightly sweet, yet earthy taste with a touch of citrus. We were told the gin is infused with pecan, very unique. Next, I had a rye old fashioned while my husband enjoyed his beer and rye whiskey (boilermaker). Mike took great care of us and gave us a little tour of the upstairs bar area. The prices are reasonable for the great quality of the spirits. We will be back to purchase some bottles and try other cocktails.

    This was such a great experience! Although we came to go upstairs to the bar we were able to order drinks from the bar downstairs while watching football and playing games (which they had already on the tables). Customer service was great, and the bartender was fantastic! We did not order any food, but the experience alone was great! You can also take a tour and they will discuss the whiskey made there. We highly recommend and will be back for sure.

    My tasting, awesome.

    Fantastic tour and bartender. Great historic place to hang out and enjoy some great whiskey.

    First time visit. Loved the warm welcome and allowing us to choose a quick first floor talk through or head straight to the 2nd floor Bar. Very knowledgeable and.l enjoyed the Maverick Whiskey history and flight taste. Relaxed atmosphere and then heading upstairs. Michael was professional and cool attitude vibe! Custom made a couple of Old Fashions. Great place to head in and relax for a few. Will love to revisit.

    SAN ANTONIO, TX: you know we are always thirsty and we found another distillery to rehydrate. Maverick Distilling is located in a historic building and former bank and they serve up whiskey, bourbon, gin, and tequila! They even make their own beer! They have it all! We spent time in the main level distiller's lounge that offered an older ambiance and seating. Leashed dogs are allowed inside. Bring your own food and pair with a cocktail!

    I took my husband here for a private tour of the distillery for his birthday and it was well worth it! Our tour guide was fun and informative. We even got to see the barrels I the basement. At the end of our tour we got to try several whiskeys and went home with a cute engraved glass. The experience was so cool and entertaining that I would make this a regular place to drink and hang out.

    Cool place. The lady downstairs said cocktails were upstairs, so up the elevator we went. It was happy hour but it was quiet. Asked the bartender a question about the menu and he assumed a different t drink, so I clarified. Gave me a vague answer so I based me decision on trying something new and it was not great but I drank it all because it was expensive, they don't actually partake in happy hour.

    You can go on a tour or stop by for drinks. I didn't do the tour but still thoroughly enjoyed my time here. Went upstairs to their bar which was well ventilated with AC. There are some cute photo ops. Everybody working here was kind.

    Maverick whiskey flight glass
    Steve G.

    Overall good. Food was flavorful and the charcuterie board was quite good. Liked that it was not TOO fancy.... Good cheeses and meats, and fruit and pickled items were good! I liked my chicken and my wife enjoyed the salmon. Good veggies accompanied... The flight was also good. The reserve whiskey was good as was the triticale.... Never had that before. Waitress described it as a "happy accident". Tequila and vodka were just OK... All in all this is a very enjoyable experience and I can see myself coming back again. I will say the one thing that they could do a better job at is coming up with some sort of parking solution.... That was pretty awful... Other than that all good. The waitress was good but not great- I will also say that the music in here was very "vampire nightclub" and it was a shame that I was not drinking more and dancing.... Lol! Seems like it will be better when more people are here (we were here a little early).

    Seasonal flight
    Raven T.

    What a lovely place to stop in and get a drink. I found this place on a google search. Whenever I'm going to a new city I look up wineries or tasting rooms, distilleries, and breweries because priorities. This place is a quick jaunt from The Alamo so it was my first stop after touring the historic site. The bartenders are really friendly and the spirits themselves are lively and interesting. I was able to partake in happy hour which includes $10 flights and $8 crafted cocktails. If you're a whiskey lover like me you won't be disappointed. The drink menu is really really imaginative; everything is well balanced and complimentary to the spirit. I ended up ordering the seasonal flight and something that was essentially a reposado old fashioned. I would come here often if I lived in the city and I'll definitely be stopping in on my next visit to San Antonio.

    One inch punch!

    Live in Tulsa and have one of the best cocktail bars in the country out there (believe it or not),…read moreso I'm particular about cocktail spots nowadays. That said, this place is great. Had the Wild Duck which was the experience the bartender who came up with the drink said it would be. Can tell they were true mixologist that are serious about their craft. Was kind of busy and loud but it was Friday night so what else would you expect. Definitely coming back.

They had a bunch of different cocktails inside lots of unique options and some not so much but where it was all about was the specials one in particular the Dunkle Sandwich as it tasted like Peanut butter and jelly like it was soo good up there with one of the best shots I've ever had soo flavorful and just good like this was by far my favorite thing I drank this night! Our other drinks were yummy too don't get me wrong as each of them has key components that made them taste amazing while I did forget the names just know that each one of them was yummy! On this particular night they had a mentalist wondering around doing magic he was fun and added to our evening here so that was a nice touch! Our bartender was awesome and quick to get us our drinks and I must say everything was mixed very well! Overall awesome spot for date night we both enjoyed our time here and hopefully we get to make it here again at some point because you can't go wrong with a chill speakeasy!

Whether any of you who are reading this know about the history of the Menger Bar and it's role in Teddy Roosevelt's assemblage of the Roughriders in this particular establishment or not the drink which he had was a mint julep. When I ask for that drink for which The past president was known to imbibe in they did not have the ingredients. That was a disappointment. Beyond my disappointment was the reality of a service establishment that had great personnel that is bartenders who were quite service oriented and given the activity in the bar where quite efficient. I mentioned this to suggest that the ingredients for a drink are as much, a managers, responsibly, bartender, and so in fairness to what I think was exemplary service I certainly did not want my personal disappointment to reflect on how good these bartenders were. The ambience is also wonderful. It is the period appropriate or appears to be appropriate and hence gives you the comfort of being able to visualize Teddy drawing together a group that eventually went on to Victory over the Spanish in Cuba. It is romantic and comfortable. The bartenders explained that the round table at which Roosevelt sat has been moved somewhere within the hotel. This is an experience not to be missed. Nacho just for the historical content of such a visit, but simply for the contemporary service and ambience.

The acoustic guitarist here had a very good voice, played so many nostalgic 90s songs, and masterfully transitioned from song to song while weaving them together seamlessly with similar bars.

They have a great selection of whisky's and usually make a really good black and tan. Today I sat at the bar, I was greeted right away and got a beer in 20 secs. I've had the fish and chips here which were good. Bangers and mash I've had and enjoyed, Shepard pie is pretty good. Today I went with the BBQ burger. Food came out in about 10 mins from placing my order. Not bad, not great. My rating on the bbq burger. They did not ask me how I wanted it prepared, it was pretty much well done. The bun was a little hard, almost stale. There was not much bbq sauce on the bbq burger. With all the toppings, I'd give the burger 5 of 10. The hard bread took away from it for sure. I always like to try just the patty without anything on it to see how restaurants prepare their patties. It was about what I expected for a well done burger. Not much flavor, it tasted like well cooked ground round. I'd give it a 3.5. The fries were so so, I like fries more on the crispy side. These were more like thick steak fries, soft and limp. They were seasoned with salt and pepper. Not bad, not great. The beer I had... had an odd smell. It tasted ok, but I think the glass itself may have not been the cleanest. Hoping I don't get sick from a dirty glass. The bartender was nice enough to let me try their frozen Irish coffee. It was surprisingly delicious, like a boozy ice cream. It just seemed like a full glass would be too much. So I got a black and tan, which was good. If I was eating just this visit, I'd probably be between a 2-3, food was meh, and the dirty glass didn't help. If I include all my other visits I'm at 3-4, since this most recent experience I had to say I'm closer to a 3 than a 4.

For starters, we had the French Onion Soup and the Wedge Salad. The soup was good, it was on the sweeter side though which wasn't my favorite. The salad was fresh, crunchy, and light. Definitely a highlight! For the main course, we had the 8oz Filet, 16oz Ribeye, and the Char-Grilled Jumbo Shrimp. This is what made this steakhouse standout to me. Everything was season and cooked to perfection. The side of the Brandy Mushroom Sauce was a great addition to the steak. The Filet was soft, juicy, and just perfect in every bite. The Ribeye was full of flavor and overall was a very good steak. The shrimp was some of the best shrimp I've had. The seasoning was impeccable, it was juicy, and tasty. For sides, we had the Baked Potato and Broccoli. The potato was a 10/10 and you were able to add more or less of what you wanted with the do it yourself style. I loved it! The broccoli was cooked great it was just very saturated in a pool of olive oil. Finally, dessert was a huge highlight and I loved every single bite. We got the Triple Chocolate Double Fudge Brownie. It was like eating a molten lava cake as a brownie. It was soft, gooey, chocolatey, fudgey, and everything you would want from a brownie and so much more. If you have not tried this steakhouse and are in the area of San Antonio, you need to come here because it will not disappoint by any means!
