We accidentally ended up at In Plain Sight while looking for Here Nor There and what a happy accident it was! We met Chad, the bartender, and honestly, what a legend. We ended up staying for a few cocktails because he was such a great lad.
Coming from Sydney, Australia, we thought we were spoilt for choice when it came to drinks, but the cocktails here were on a whole new level, smooth, balanced, and absolutely delicious. The bar itself is tiny (fits about 16 people), which makes for such an intimate, cozy experience.
We even got chatting to a group of locals next to us. It’s such a rare and wonderful thing to walk into a bar and instantly feel part of a community. Chad really set the tone for that; his passion for what he does was just beautiful to see.
If I ever make it back to Austin, I’ll 100% be back. Thanks for a fantastic night, Chad. It’s one we’ll remember for a lifetime!

Unmatched cocktails and the friendliest bartenders.

Fun spot with delicious cocktails! Not a great option if you don’t drink/are with folks who don’t drink however. Only one off-menu non alcoholic item is available if you ask. I brought my partner who doesn’t drink so he basically just had to watch me drink a really fun cocktail which was fine once but this probably won’t be the spot I bring him/folks who don’t drink in the future

Such a fantastic hidden gem! In Plain Sight is exactly what you hope a speakeasy will be—intimate, stylish, and full of charm. The vibe is cozy but elevated, and the bartenders were absolutely fantastic—super friendly, knowledgeable, and honestly, not bad to look at either 😉. The drinks were crafted with care, and every detail of the space added to the experience. A cute little spot that’s perfect for date night or a chill evening with friends. Can’t wait to go back!

Awesome micro bar speakeasy literally hidden in plain sight (behind a window on the busy street). The bartender prepared great cocktails and the place was very cozy.
