Bar 1919

Nestled discreetly under the galleries at Bluestar, this genuine speakeasy bar exudes irresistible charm with its low lighting and intimate setting. The long bar top invites patrons to savor meticulously crafted cocktails by professional bartenders. We indulged in the Without A Trace and TI Pain; both drinks were excellent and delightful. In this pleasantly quiet atmosphere, marked by a classic allure and an air of exclusivity, the absence of unnecessary noise heightens the enjoyment. Amidst this sophisticated ambiance, cozy couches warmly invite lingering and intimate conversations, further enhancing the overall enchanting and amorous lure of the speakeasy.

Not for those looking for frivolous drinks. Don’t ask for a Cosmo here. These are serious cocktails for those who appreciate the finer things in life. One of the best bars in town and, in my opinion, affordably priced for what you get. Don’t look for a sign. Look for the red lamp hidden below surface level.

This little hidden gem was amazing! The cocktails were so good and intricate, and the service was helpful and reasonably fast, considering the complexity of the drinks. I would recommend this to anyone who is in love with great cocktails. I will definitely be back. The atmosphere is so appealing, and the decor is so much fun.

Really cool low key spot. Had trouble finding initially but reference the other reviews and you’ll be good! Had four different cocktails and all were exceptional in their own way. The service was great and the atmosphere inside gave off a really good vibe. Definitely recommend as I think it may be one of the best in the area.

Impressive. The barren staircase leading to a narrow alley led to a nondescript blacked out door, setting the stage for a proper "speakeasy" entrance. The door opens, and you are transported into another time. A bygone era of cocktail culture at its finest. They boast an impressive bourbon and whiskey menu and you should definitely visit for this alone. My tastes revolve around rum and I decided to try them out with a small test, a daquiri. I inquired about rum choices and much to my chegrin the bartender recommended one of my favorite rums for it, probitas. I knew this was a home run and every drink they made after was great. Try their house made concoctions, most are fantastic but can run sweet. This is a must visit in San Antonio. 5/5 will be back next time for more classics

Love the atmosphere here! Drinks are always great! Bartenders are awesome and super knowledgeable. Many have been here for a very long time so they know their stuff. No food options. I think they said you could bring food in. You could purchase nuts. Bar seating, we like to sit here to watch the drinks be made. Several high top tables and a booth or two. Outdoor seating as well. This is located on the lower level so you go down the steps to get inside. Perfect bar to go to if you’re in this area. Go for a stroll along the greenway when you’re done!
