Old guy behind the bar is always rude. they also don’t comply with TABC liquor laws given their restaurant status because they rarely are serving food until 12 pm

Cole was super rude and made unnecessary comments when asked super simple questions. Was not a good experience on my birthday.

I got thrown out because the table my party sat down at only had 3 chairs so me and my buddy pulled up 2. The general manager came up and put his hand on my shoulder and said there is only 3 seats allowed per table. Yall need to leave. I had spent nearly $500 inside at the bar. He ultimately was just hating that me and my buddy were having such a nice time with our amazing dates. Hes lucky I’m easy going, I can’t imagine someone else letting someone tell them “sorry buddy only 3 chairs” while aggressively padding them on the shoulder. I know more than 1 friend of mine who would have broken every bone in his hand. I will never be going back here (it was my 3rd or 4th time) and I will be posting all over my social media against this ridiculous place.

I normally don’t leave reviews, but I had such a great experience the other night I had to share! The drinks and food were amazing, but the bartender Brooke was even better! She was so welcoming, kind, and thoughtful. Made me this amazing shot I had never heard of and I loved it! Will definitely be back to for more recommendations.

An unfortunate misread of the Austin market. This isn’t West Hollywood. Too uppity and laughably overpriced — $40 for two basic cocktails. There are many many fantastic, locally owned bars in the neighborhood that are much more down to earth.
To give credit where credit is due, the interior is very well decorated and the lighting is nice

Lovely little cocktail bar in a fun old 'possibly haunted' building. Cocktails are great. They have great low proof and no proof options. The disco ball is so strange but cool.

Howard’s Bar was a nice place for a quick stop before dinner but it is pricey. We got two cocktails and it was 40 dollars with tip which is seriously California prices at this point. I did a low ABV cocktail spicy manzanilla sipper and my husband got a tequila based drink. They were nice but also not mind blowingly good. The bartender was nice, but the bar patrons were a little bro-ey and fratty to make me feel like this was a place I was welcome. Overall, I would probably come back again if I needed to kill time before a dinner reservation but I’m not necessarily going to seek out this bar as a hangout for me and my friends.

Stopped by after dinner at Clark’s to have a drink and spent $46 for two glasses of house Cabernet. I would estimate they were no more than 4 to 6 oz. Pours. Great atmosphere but ridiculous prices catering to the Austifornians I guess. I’ll pass on this place next time.
LOVE going here for happy hour and lingering until dark...their burger is crave-worthy and they always play great music! When I have the energy to stay up late, I have caught a few DJ sets and they are super fun and intimate....perfect for an old lady like me who doesn't want to go to a nightclub. They also have nice outdoor seating to enjoy the weather. Happy to have them in the neighborhood!

This place has so much potential but too much "too cool for you" attitude. Cocktails and food are surprisingly good but not good enough for the price point.
