Joey NowakJuly 31, 2018Order a couple types of absinthe and have them walk you through it. They know their stuff.
Lauren Helfer PattonJuly 30, 2014I asked for a wine menu, and they had to search for one. This is a true cocktail bar. I scrapped the wine and went for a dark and stormy.
Lauren MacJuly 28, 2015Extensive cocktail menu, but ask the waiters for help choosing. Fun place to meet friends.
Jason LockeJuly 31, 2014Trey is an amazing bartender! Extremely knowledgable and good at his craft!! Food is also very good even for Austin
Max SirenkoNovember 10, 2013Try the 75 or 77 cocktail, both are fantastic. Can't go wrong with any of the mixed drink cocktails here- Kathryn YuMarch 23, 2011Excellent moules in lemon broth with Tito's Vodka. Try also the charcuterie board. They also do a good riff on the Last Word using rye, called the Final Say.
Drew is absolutely amazing! Best service ever. I'll be back only for him...and the drinks. ;)
Mindy NghiemJune 27, 2015Try the Braised Short Ribs with Duck Fat Mashed Potatoes, Wild Mushrooms, and Jus - (via @Foodspotting)
You can't go wrong with a French 77.....And that Mac&Cheese.... To die for!- LynneSeptember 19, 2012The bartenders are alchemists. Try the devil's martini for a jalapeno kick! The Bee's Knees is also delicious.
Serious EatsFebruary 19, 2013La Condesa bartender Nate Wales told us that he likes Peche's emphasis on classic cocktails.
Yejee Arin ChoiApril 6, 2014Queen's navy grog is sooo good! Recommended for ppl who like limey, refreshing drinks!
Jeremey BarrettSeptember 19, 2014High on my list of great cocktail bars. The Fig Manhattan is fantastic.
Hilary McVayApril 12, 2010Great customer service! Even if you can't afford to do dine on their fabulous food which primarily comes from local sources. I highly recommend stopping in for a drink.
The Daily MealJune 23, 2011The spirit to seek out here is mezcal, tequila's smoky cousin. Cocktails made with this very-hot-right-now liquor aren't listed on the menu, so you have to know to ask (we hear the Scorned Conzuela an Read more
Sarah MithaniApril 20, 2014Absolutely divine! Get the mussels and a French 77. The staff is extremely friendly!
- Emily GroffmanNovember 11, 2011Fig Manhattan & French 78 are amazing. Then again, I get the feeling that anything these bartenders whip up is amazing.
Rachael J.January 23, 2012Best Absinthe bar. Have the bartender make you something custom. They seriously have uncanny instincts about mixing the right drink.
Great cocktails, go for happy hour on Sunday/Monday (all day)
Danielle CSeptember 11, 2010Best bartenders I've ever had. Ordered an old fashioned and irish coffee along with menu drinks. He made the sweet whipped cream on the spot. Earned his tip completely!
Eat: mushroom crepes. Drink: Corpse Reviver, Moscow Mule or Whiskey Sour
Off menu: St. Germain Sour, a foamy sweet deliciousness.
Niki TaylorApril 30, 2012Recommendations: Sazerac, Fig Manhattan, Steak Frites, and save room for the Peche Milkshake!
Bartenders are phenomenal. If you can't decide on something they'll make you something creative and unforgettable. Look for Carter.
DevonOctober 25, 2012The Fig Manhattan is the greatest incarnation that i have ever imbibed of this cocktail.
Amber BennettMay 26, 2012Tried the fig manhattan and the vieux carte both great; joe had manhattan henge awesome
Amanda FayerFebruary 11, 2012Talk to the bartender John and let him make you an incredible fresh cocktail! Or get a Bixby 75!
Arguably the best boutique bar I've been to. Awesome service.
Cheyenne RobinsonApril 27, 2012Great daiquiri! The owner, Rob is a character and is great at reading what your drink has your "personality."
Chrysanthe TenentesMarch 14, 2012Enjoy the ragtime music and a cocktail and don't miss the rosemary fries.
Amy CaoMarch 11, 2012Try the Texas Mule - Tequila shots: bad idea. Vodka, jalapeño and housemade ginger beer: good idea.
Rene Huey-LiptonNovember 19, 2009Amazing food, great drinks...old school style. Perfect for a great night out. Tell the waiters what you like and they'll recco--can't miss!
