I give them 5 stars because the bartenders Christy and Nicole were beautiful and great at what they do, they take care of their customers. What more could you want? I'm an Over Road Trucker, so I don't know when I'll be back in San Antonio, but when I am I'll be stopping in Bar America for a beer or two, or three.

Very nice bar. Clean and comfortable. Hip but not weird . Drinks are good and selection is great. We really liked the vibe in here. Music was good and the crowd is not rough. The kitchen is closed so they allow you to bring food or have it delivered. I liked that.

One of the oldest bars in San Antonio's historic southtown/King William district. The historic building still holds the same brick walls it did back in the 40s. The neon signs and a few of the bar decorations are all vintage and vibrant, date back nearly 4 generations, my favorite being an old Miller clock. The pool table available is also vintage and still only cost 50cent a game just like back in the day, whereas most places will charge you by the hour at a costly price. The dartboard is definitely new but it is one of the best dartboards in town, being tournament quality with all digital scoring. The new interior design has allowed more room for seating and gatherings. The new bathrooms outside also allow for more public use and less wait time. Also the upper outside deck gives you a calm view of the San Antonio skyline and just a great place to absorb the outdoor atmosphere all while having a cold beer or cocktail in your hand. The downstairs outside patio is also nice to get away from the inside, get a fresh breathe of air or even have a smoke. The happy hour menu is a steal, now including great craft cocktails to their menu. After happy hour, everything is still decently priced, although those who complain can drink at home! Once an old beer and cash only bar, it is now a full bar well equipped with craft beers, excellent tequilas and satifying whiskeys(just missing Wild Turkey 101 lol), 3 things Texans love the most! There is also a nice selection of gin, vodka, mezcal, traditonal domestics, and both red and white wines. The staff is excellent and exceed customer expectations. The owner, Brian, is a busy man but is very interactive when available. Kristi, the manager is very attentive and stern but provides efficient service none the less. The bartenders Charlie and Sofia are two hard hitters and deliver premiere and quality customer service with that hint of southern hospitality. The backbones of the bar aka the barbacks, Joseph and Edgar are on top of makin

Such a fun spot! Drinks are SO good, and bartenders always friendly. I had the margarita flight. We also had THE best view from the rooftop bar area.

Great place to get a drink and connect with people. The vibe was great from when we talked to the door man and then was taken care of at the bar. The bartendress was friendly, cute and made our drink quickly and they tasted great. There was a DJ and he was spending great tunes. I first came to this bar in the 90s. It has changed quite a bit, but for the better. I'll be back soon.

Stumbled upon this gem on a Wednesday evening and it turned out they have an amazing open mic. 🎤 hosted by Girl In a Coma’s lead singer Nina. Although we missed her performance we enjoyed the very delicious Raspa beverage! My new favorite drink! 🍹 we will definitely be returning

My experience at this establishment wasn't just about the food; it was about the incredible people! I celebrated my birthday with friends and chose this place as our final stop of the night. The staff surprised me with a cupcake, which truly made my day feel special. The real highlight, however, was when I lost a valuable ring during my visit. Not only did someone turn it in, but the staff went above and beyond when I called to inquire about it—they had secured it in their safe and understood its significance. It was my anniversary ring, and their kindness and honesty were profoundly reassuring in today’s world. I cannot thank you enough for your amazing service! Your establishment and the wonderful team you have truly make it a great place, and I look forward to returning!
