If you are a person who enjoys liquor forward cocktails, I would highly recommend going here. It our favourite bar in Austin. They have a $33 cocktail ( since I can't remember the name )on the menu. It's absolutely delicious! Every drink I've had here has been superior even if it was just a boulivadier or old fashioned.

Me and my girlfriends dropped in to grab a drink before our next destination. We were greeted and asked how we could be helped only to be told that they didnt have anymore seats. However we did notice some seats.

Absolutely phenomenal experience at Kinfolk! Cameron was the best mixologist we’ve had in this lifetime, the drinks he created for us were divine. We each had very different preferences and he knocked it out of the park for each and every one. Highly recommend checking this out if you’re in Austin!

Awesome experience! Enter through Moonshine and Hostess takes you through a gated basement to enter the speakeasy. Enjoyed listening to the history of the building/location, etc... Drinks were good but the experience/atmosphere was better.

Extremely good. Easily one of the three best cocktail bars in town. Great atmosphere, fun drink lineage, and everything is delicious. Highly recommend.

One of the best speakeasy cocktail style bars in the city. Staff is super engaging and making some of the best drinks in Austin! If you are a bourbon lover the selection of spirits is top notch.

Had an incredible evening at Kinfolk. We are visiting Austin from out of town and decided to stop by Kinfolk to check out their rare and limited bottle collection. Our server, Andy, was exceptional! His knowledge and enthusiasm truly made our evening magical. We will definitely recommend Kinfolk to friends who are in the Austin area.

Overrated (apparently, given the place’s overall rating!) as drinks are good but not great, and service is pretty disappointing. Pretentious with no real talent or personality to warrant it. Bourbon selection is really cool, ambience is great, loved the music, loved the charcuterie. But the attitudes and lack of service killed it for us tonight.
Awesome little speakeasy with incredible selection of spirits and great cocktails. Staff was very well informed and kind. Awesome little spot !!

Kinfolk Lounge & Library in Austin is a hidden gem, tucked away in a historic cellar beneath Moonshine Grill. This intimate, speakeasy-style bar offers an extensive whiskey and bourbon list that will delight any enthusiast. One standout is their Whiskey Sour, crafted with Four Roses Small Batch Select Bourbon, fresh lemon, gum syrup, Luxardo Amaretto, and egg white—perfectly balanced and rich in flavor. For something lighter and refreshing, the Jack Rose is a must-try, made with Laird’s Bottled in Bond Apple Brandy, Christian Drouin Calvados, fresh lime, pomegranate syrup, Peychaud’s bitters, and lime oil. The atmosphere is cozy, the drinks are impeccable, and a reservation is essential, which can easily be made on their website or through Resy. Highly recommended for a special evening out!

Very cool decor and nicely laid out menu. Drinks were just ok though and music did not fit and was way too loud to have any sort of conversation.

Such an hidden spot to have a very selected and passionately prepared cocktail . Their cocktail menu is beautifully categorized by taste. I love sour and had what l needed. Fantastic decor and polite helpful and discreet personnel. Will be back for sure.
