5 reviews for The Mix
This MIx is kind of the perfect dive bar. I'm giving them five stars because what they do, they do really well. Don't get me wrong, you'd never confuse this place with the Four Seasons.
When we stopped in here on Friday night, we immediately felt at home. The bartenders couldn't have been friendlier, the beer selection was great, and the crowd was an eclectic "mix" (pun intended). Everyone seems really laid back and there just have have a good time hanging out with friends.
Coming from a non-smoking city, it did kind of make me laugh to see a cigarette vending machine. I LOVE the old-school Ms. Pac Man game and wore my arm out trying to make it to the next level. There is a small patio out front, darts and pool tables. This will definitely be a regular stop when in San Antonio.
I'm not really sure when this place changed from a college bar to rockabilly bar but I think it's great.
the drinks aren't crazy cheap but it's resonable. the bands that they bring are all locals and most of it is pretty great. the bar can get pretty packed but they have this great patio area. the bar can also get a bit packed with smoke so I would recommend some patio use and I'm a smoker. it's a great bar that I think all San Antonio locals and visiting friends should check out.
If you're looking for a no-frills kick-ass brew selection mix (pun sort of intended) and match good time, this is an absolutely fabulous place to start. Mix (if you will) one part easygoing and sharp barstaff, a twist of enigmatic if comfortably friendly regulars, shake with a bar band or two, throw a heavy pour in there and you know what I'm talking about. All they're missing are the sleeping bags. I could have forwarded my mail here and been perfectly okay for awhile.
Bathed in blue light with a side room full of pool tables, The MIx is just what it purports to be: a mix of friends and soon to be extended family, wrapped in the warm embrace of tonight, surrounded by the possibility of expanding smiles in the offing. I can't in all honesty say that I've spent countless nights here, 'cause that wouldn't be true. But these guys get the best part of what being a neighborhood staple is. And whether you're a bar or a friend, there will always be something special about that idea.
I loved going to the mix while I was in town. Cool atmosphere with no douche bags and cheap ass drinks. I guess compared to L.A. anything is cheap, but this spot is aight. Can't wait to go back
This is where my husband became a fixture while I was away in boot camp and the purgatory that followed (more training). I'd been there before and it was pretty cool but I never really saw what all the hype was about....but the crowd here knows how to get down.
Pitchers are so cheap here, there's no way you'll walk out sober....it's just fucking badass. There's live music every night, mostly local acts (good ones). There's also a couple of pool tables. Good luck getting a chance to play, I've seen the same people hogging them up for hours. Ladies, the restrooms are an AT-YOUR-OWN-RISK thing, There's about a 3 inch gap between the doors to the stalls so your business is pretty much everyone else's too. But who cares....this place just kicks ass.
