Small, chill place with a simple outdoor patio. Good selection of cocktails and beer. Nice happy hour. They make a great Old Fashioned and Sazerac. Service has always been good, though I tend to go when its less crowded, but even during busy hours theyve been fine. Enjoy hanging out here. Parking: Theres a small, shared parking lot behind the building, but it fills up quickly. Then youre doing the St. Marys strip parking search.

Really relaxed place with nice ambient low lights. They have a small patio which is great for people watching. They also have a TV that has movies on. Great for solo drinkers. Got a gin+honey+lemon mixture. Easy down the hatch, no unpleasant bitterness. Bartender was pleasant.

This place is nice. Sweet little neighborhood bar and if Patrick is behind the bar be sure to let him make you a cool drink. He has mad talent and their ice is, by far, the best ice in SATX.

My favorite hangout spot on St. Marys, always pretty chill with great bartenders who know how to take care of their patrons. Never had a bad drink here, they can do anything from the typical modern shots to the deep-cut classic cocktails.

The website boasts menu options - there is no food. The picture show beautiful and classy decor - the tables are cheap and old. Some people say this is a chill spot , I would say it s run down. The drinks are cheap though.

I work here so I have to put 5 stars. But honestly its a really relaxed bar. Never in my 3 years of working have I had to break up a drunk fight. Alot of regulars from the industry is probably the reason for that. Bartenders seem to know much about their craft. They Dont serve food like our sign says, so if you happen to come by for food no worries our neighbors to all side have food. Really great food to be precise.

TBA is alright. I like how everyone is sorta in the same party on the patio, very much on top of each other. I would say the only part I dont like is it feels like your interrupting something each time you go to the bar to order. There are a lot of regulars it looks like but the two times I have been there I have wanted to say excuse me just to order. Maybe dedicate a bartender who doesnt talk to the 12 people at the bar the whole time to instead handle the 50 people not at the bar. This reads overly harsh it is still a great place and maybe I can work on my people skills but I just always feel like the bartender would rather not help. I would still go back and I encourage everyone to go in and show me how wrong this review is. There thats it.

Pretty chill bar. I went on a Saturday night after work with some friends. Took us a minute to get our drink order in but it was a Saturday, so I understand. If I had one suggestion it would be to offer some combo of a beer&shot something. Small but intimate place. It s right on St. Mary s so bar hopping is not a problem.

Nice bar to visit on the strip, but nothing particularly remarkable. Some outdoor seating, but was tool cold for us to enjoy that weekend. The paired shots + drinks menu is nice. What stood out was their commitment to customer service: they were out of a coffee stout and upgraded me to a better one they had in stock for free.

This is the best bar on the strip in my opinion, very relaxing, quiet but not too quiet or dead, and the regulars are great and chill people. They have, i think, the best selection too without you having to spend your whole damn check there and the bartenders can make some very flavorful drinks, 10/10 recommend ghe old fashioned and trying one of the many import beers they got. Definitely worth checking out if you like good music and a relaxing ambiance to sit and read, write, or talk with the patrons.

I did like the inside it was dim and chill. The female bartender that was working at the time was very rude and didnt seem to know what she was selling. On top of that when we asked for a specific drink she gave my husband attitude, told us that they didnt have it and told him we could go next door if we wanted it so bad.

You cant go wrong with TBA if your looking for some good beer and cocktails in a neighborhood joint. The crowd varies widely from business folks and college kids at happy hour to industry folks during the week and people leaving the local music venues at night. Great place to meet friends or just have a few beers by yourself and get some small bites from their menu.
