My friends and I went here on a Thursday night visit to San Antonio and were lucky to find this spot. The drinks are cheap (they have $3 beers and $5 ranch water), the bartenders are friendly, the ambiance is great, and the clientele is lively. The only thing that was not satisfactory that night was the karaoke host, Dale. He refused to play certain songs, including Fly Me to the Moon and My Way by Frank Sinatra. These are crowd favorites and karaoke standards, but according to Dale, they re not the vibe. In order to find out if he ll play your song you have to hunt through a spreadsheet. And it wasn t just the choice in music; as a technician he left something to be desired. The monitor and microphone levels were adjusted improperly most of the time until one singer corrected him in the middle of her song. Even after that he started turning the performers microphone down so that we all had to strain and scream in order to be heard over the music. You can see examples of that in the videos I took. His microphone was turned much higher than the performers microphone and he completely sang over one girl for her entire song a classic move in the book of karaoke hosts with small man syndrome. I m giving the bar a five star rating. The karaoke host I would rate much lower; you guys deserve better. I hope that either The Mix finds a better karaoke host, or that Dale cleans up his act. Until that time, I ll be back, but not on a Thursday.

This place has really fallen off the strip. It looks like an abandoned building during the day and the floors looked like they havent been cleaned in years. Theres still some really good bartenders and a few DJs that set up here but there arent very many good shows anymore, and the mix is really, really bad at promoting unless its emo night or cover bands. You can basically find the same level of entertainment at any sports bar in San Antonio. Their drink prices change on different days without notice or advertisement so keep an eye on your bar tab. With most other places on the strip doing so much more, this place is a last resort.

The thing that got me to try it out was the on site, free parking and the EDM music. The drinks frankly arent great. The margaritas are made with an ocean spray juice, which I dont like but can tolerate for the cheap price but last time I went there it tasted like wet towel; the bar tender said it was the bottom of the machine mix and then gave me a hand mixed margarita (which was thoughtful) but that too tasted like wet towel. I ended up barely sipping either drink and leaving it to be trashed. Anyways, I dont go for the drinks or to drink. I go for the music. I cant think of anywhere with a DJ moving 80s, 90s, dark music and J pop. There havent been any repeat songs from what Ive observed. I didnt realize the first Sunday of the months was hillbilly music, so that was a bit disappointing to expecting EDM, but now I know to skip that day. Im actually not sure what I could order next time and drink that would be good. Im trying to give them money, but they are making it difficult. Between the free parking and good music, Ill go back often.

As someone who used to go to the Mix in the early 2000s it is the sentimental aspect I love. Alot of the ambiance is the same but some aspects have changed. Great bartendresses, kind & friendly cozy, great music location. Parking is a challenge but hoping that gets remedied. All in all grab your buds and head over. The Mix is still the heart of SA live music scene.

Both bar tenders just ignored me for 30 minutes while they visited with friends or maybe locals who frequent the place. Out of mixers at 8:40 pm. Asked for a double and a glass of water so I wouldn t have to go back to the bar, but had to repeat the order 4 times because he couldn t understand. Not that he couldn t hear, he just couldn t remember 2 things at a time.

Like a small time machine. Many different fashions, ages, types. Always a friendly face though. Come down every weekend for a live performance that will sureley rock the house. Lots on draft, lots drinks, slightly short on liquors but they can make good shots with a beer to serve. Only complaint is parking, but thus is the St. Marry area.

This place has been good to me over the years. It s gone through many changes but some things about it will always stay the same. It s got good air conditioning. It s bathrooms are divey, but they appear to be tended to. There s a couch/chill area with a pool table. You re gonna get a different experience whenever you go. Last time I was there, I DJ was playing metal, hanging out at the bar, and then changing songs whenever they were over. There is this outdoor patio where I ve spent some good times. The lighting out there ain t too good anymore, and there are too few tables. The regulars sit in the patio and smoke, and if you so much as grab a chair when they leave, they ll come back with drinks and give you a sideways stink eye. If the Mix made the patio smoke free, I d bump up this review to 4 stars.

We have two lazy people that went outside to smoke weed came inside and decided to no longer serve me because they saw me on my phone and actually being very critical of how they serve.

Some of my favorite San Antonio memories are in this bar!!! My one suggestion to management: I like yall s black Mix logo tees (with the martini glass and the est. 1991) and I bought one. It fits super wide and it s really rough despite loads of fabric softener. I think you should consider new shirts... I d buy another one :)
