38 Best Cocktail Bars near Cedar Park

“We had the BEST experience from beginning to end with our larger party at Mags! We hosted our position dinner for the CPHS Linebackers and Coaches in Mag’s “Bullpen” and it was awesome!!! Jordan and Jill went the extra mile having everything ready when we arrived! Jordan made sure that the hungry guys had full drinks, their orders put in/delivered swiftly, and that the chips/queso/salsa was refilled before they could ask!😜 Jordan was an awesome server, had great communication with the guys, and as always was super friendly😊!! The food was perfect and the guys all said it was one of their favorite position meals! We will definitely be coming back to Mag’s and Jordan and Jill for future large parties!“

“Possibly the best churrascaria I have ever eaten at. The food was absolutely incredible, as was the service. I don't think I've ever had meat seasoned this well at any other steakhouse, but the grilled pineapple was the highlight for me. Great experience!“

“Oh my... Buy 5lbs, get the 6th free! Service was awesome, and the mud bugs were even better! With or without the Abby's Cajun recipe, the crawfish were full of awesome flavor and were easy to peel. I chose the hot heat level but will be choosing the next level up upon my return. If you like the spice of life, you may want to choose the top tier heat to start off with!“

“Apart from the undercooked pancake, everything was delicious! The shrimp and grits were amazing, perfectly seasoned and full of flavor. The service was great, the staff was attentive, and the restaurant was clean and inviting. Overall, a really enjoyable breakfast spot. I’ll definitely be back!“

“My wife and I had the best experience here for my birthday lunch, I'm so glad we chose this restaurant to eat at while in town for the Austin FC match! I can't say enough about the staff and the owner Joel who went out of his way to be extremely kind to us. Not to mention the food and drinks were so good. We'll definitely be back!“

“The rooms are clean, service is amazing and the atmosphere is peaceful and calm. My husband and I absolutely loved it and will be back! What a slice of heaven just a few blocks down from downtown around Rock. I highly recommend this hotel!“

“Excellent food and excellent service in a pretty cool building! Definitely would recommend!“

“Everything was delicious and the food came out very quickly on a Friday night. Great service and the margaritas were delicious. Highly recommend the fajitas and the barbacoa nachos. Their salsas are fantastic. Will definitely return and can’t wait for their new location to open!“

“We had the most beautiful reception at Wish Well House. Shout out to Maggie for making the planning, choosing vendors, and the wedding day absolutely wonderful and super easy. We love how the vendors worked together to make the day exactly what we wanted. The open bar with signature drinks was fabulous. The Wish Well House is gorgeous and looked incredible with the flowers and decorations. The light and bright setting made for beautiful pictures as well. We are so lucky to have celebrated our special day at Wish Well House.“

“The staff is so nice. I got the sliders(2) this second time I was here for HH and they're very decently priced(along with the rest of the HH) and they're really good. The first time i was here, I had the short ribs which were "off menu" but that was cooked perfectly as well. The bar area is huge, I do know it can get packed later in the night!“

“Delicious food, large portions and great service ! Definitely recommend !“

“absolutely love this place. Marcus (who i see every thursday for karaoke) has wonderful customer service. He knows my drink by heart and is always so fast and attentive with me, and all other customers, which i’m sure you can assume is difficult with that much noise. Really nice guy and he makes a mean margarita. Karaoke and bingo nights are THE best and the regulars are always so fun to be around. overall the best neighborhood bar in leander.“

“Max was a badass. All the drinks were fabulous!! The food was good too...especially the dynamite shrimp! We're Austin locals and this place is worth the visit weather you're from here or visiting.

We'll be back!“

“Love everything about it ❤️😍🙌“

“ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLE FOOD!!!! Incredible service, great atmosphere. BEST IN AUSTIN HANDS DOWN!!!!!!“

“they have amazing drinks especially margaritas 🍹with that best bartender Olga“

“Mike is basically a cocktail wizard. The man has the skill, wisdom, and creativity of someone who probably dreams in martini shakers and bitters. Meanwhile, my wife and I kept ordering vodka club sodas. Watching him craft these jaw-dropping works of mixology art for other customers while I pointed at a bottle of vodka felt like asking Picasso to draw me a stick figure.

When we first got there I ordered a Stella and quietly stared at the bar, questioning my life choices. Honestly, I felt like I was disrespecting his Hogwarts-level bartending diploma.

But here’s the thing—Mike still treated us like royalty and made our night at The Domain unforgettable. Do yourself a favor: go see him, ask for the “good stuff,” and prepare to watch him work magic that’ll make you rethink every drink you’ve ever ordered.

The hotel and the WXYZ bar are dog friendly so it’s beautiful to have a drink and pet a dog.“

“Bazille is our families new favorite place to enjoy a meal out. The staff is top notch and absolutely amazing! Ask for Susan S., she knows her craft and tskes such good care of her guests. The food is so good and worth every penny! If youre looking for wonderful food and views elevated above the streets at the domain, do yourself a favor and try Bazille!
Bon appetite!“

“Absolutely wonderful. The food was high-quality and very delicious. The lobster bites—a little pricey (it’s lobster) but AMAZEBALLS, as the kids like to say these days. I had the mushroom risotto with salmon: al bacio! Mwah! Great service (wish I could remember the server’s name, commendations to him). Small but cozy, pleasant patio. ROUND ROCK DONUT BREAD PUDDING WITH ICE CREAM…’nuff said. Best dining experience that I’ve had in a while. Can’t. Recommend. Enough. Thanks, guys!“

“Amazing happy hours and the sushi is great!“

“Came in today to celebrate my wife’s birthday. The staff were super friendly and welcoming. I had the patty melts and fries. While my wife had the Buffalo Chicken Gnocchi. The peanut butter cheesecake was excellent.“

“Really good first experience, good, and pricing.“

“We’ve been to The Water Trough a few times now and in aggregate it is a fun and lively place to dine at. The closest parking is the Orange Garage so the walk over is quick. Breakfast or dinner, it is a nice, clean place with a good vibe and good food. The setting at night is much better as they have live music most nights and put up the garage shutter so you can hear it from their outdoor portion as well.

On the breakfast side of things we sat quickly and service was okay. We ordered the Texas breakfast tacos and the pancakes, hash browns, and bacon a la carte. The breakfast tacos were good. We got them with brisket and the portion was huge, although we wish it came with three tortillas instead of two because it was more than we could fit into them. The eggs, cheese, and brisket all came together and despite what reads as a smaller dish, we were pretty full by it. As for the pancakes, hash browns, and bacon; all were pretty classic versions of them. The pancakes were good, thin and sweet. The hash browns were cooked well with a slight crunch and the bacon was the highlight of the three, full of flavor with a nice chew and crisp. We also ordered chocolate milk, but whatever we got was NOT chocolate milk. It was closer to a frothed drink and had cinnamon in it which was a bit strange. The waitress could clearly see we were not feeling it and she comped it on our bill which was very, very nice of her to do without asking.

The dinner here is much better than the breakfast admittedly. The live music certainly helps and the vibe with the low lighting gives it a very nice feel when dining. We had the country fried steak and LSC burger, both very good. The country fried steak was one of the better ones we’ve had here, extremely savory and the fries were good too. The burger was juicy and full of flavor as well. Beware the fries here are really home fries or cubed fries in case geometry is not your thing.

Ultimately, The Water Trough is a very good place to eat at and is probably a bit overlooked due to its location in The Domain, but between solid food and good live music scene, we don’t see why anyone wouldn’t want to stop by. We’d recommend this spot as an alternative to the hustle and bustle of the north Domain and for those preferring a more relaxed and intimate night of food and music.“

“AMAZING!! Favorite Mexican restaurant by far!“

“Awesome food and friendly staff“

“I was so not expecting this place to surprise me the way it did!!! I travel a lot and try new places and sometimes get used to restaurants not caring about the quality of food they serve. Happy Chicks not only provided me with HIGH QUALITY chicken, but top tier customer service! Matt, was so kind, from beginning to end!! I even caught him helping a homeless man get food🥰🥰 instead of saying they can’t give food away! That alone made me a forever customer!! Then I bit into the chicken and was like “Wait, this is real chicken!!” It was hot, fresh, crispy and packed full of flavor! They’re also on the inKind app, and my entire meal cost $0.89 w/ rewards from inKind app. I will definitely be returning!!“

“Excellent food and service.“

“My new favorite restaurant.“
