Absolutely amazing sans alcohol (free) bar in Austin Texas. Great Range of cocktails that are delicious. Try the Kobayashi Maru! Very unique. And an amazing Star Trek Easter egg.

The Nada Colada and Margarita are fabulous. I'm not much into the hipster crowd but that's not a diss on them, it's just the generation that's most drawn to an alcohol free bar. We'll definitely be going back every now and then to chill with some good mocktails.Dietary restrictions: Alcohol free drinksWheelchair accessibility: No stairs.

We stopped by this place our first night in Austin. Glad we did! This place is absolutely amazing. Some of the best drinks I’ve ever had, alcoholic or non-alcoholic. The Kobiyashi Maru was one of the absolute best drinks with so many unique flavors! The sidebar was also amazing. Chris is a genius innovator. Rivals some of the best bars I’ve been to in Mexico City and Chicago, giving unique flavors with each drink. Badly wish we had this in Chicago.The space inside is beautiful too and perfect for events.We are so thankful and glad we made it here!

Sans Bar is a great bar to visit. Whether you're sober, observing Dry January, or just looking for a new place to try, sans bar should be on your list. It's located steps away from the capitol but the quaint and moody interior quickly makes you forget that fact. The actual bar is small and filled up rather quickly leaving standing room only so if you want to grab a seat, head in early.The menu offers a good variety of drinks ranging from sweet drinks to those more acidic. They have a $25 all you can drink special that we took advantage of. The Kobayashi Maru was by far my favorite.Parking: Street parking near bar

Finally checked this place out after seeing a lot about it on IG, but I was a little disappointed. I had higher hopes for the drinks. They weren't bad, but they weren't great. I also wish the vibe was slightly more bar-like. It was pretty bright in there and I think softer, dimmer lighting would've provided a better ambiance. The music was also super quiet and hard to hear. I definitely didn't want it to be thumping, but a little louder would've been nice. It just kind of made the experience a little awkward. I would go back again, because maybe this was an off night, but I will have different expectations the next time.

Friday night and it's closed. Would be better if it has a schedule of when it's open so we can actually check it out

Wonderful service, Chris was so nice and welcoming. The drinks were fantastic and really nice to look at. The location was intimate and really well decorated.

What an incredible concept! Sans bar is a bar that focuses on non-alcoholic cocktails, beers and wines and building a community where people can feel comfortable no matter their relationship with alcohol.I came on a Friday night with two other friends and was surprised to see live music! The artist was great and added to the rustic decor. There were also a few games on the high top tables. I tried a sparkling wine and a red wine. Both were great at $7 a glass! It was wonderful to see so many people come and go and having great time.

Although a little bit smaller than I expected, this is such a cute spot to get your mocktails! For my non alcohol drinkers, you get all of the fun of the pretty drinks without that alcohol taste. And for the people that still enjoy the taste, all of the ritual "alcohols" really deliver in tasting like the real thing! And best of all, such cheap drinks compared to other places (thank you no alcohol!)I also really love all the events the bar has lined up, we enjoyed a great line up of comedians!
