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!“

“The food is amazing and the atmosphere is very pleasant. They are family owned and ran.“

“I honestly don’t understand some of the negative reviews because Abby’s Crab Shack has been one of my favorite seafood spots.

They have some of the best crawfish I’ve ever had, and their prices are very fair compared to other seafood places. The portions are generous, so I always feel like the food is worth the price.

Whenever I’m craving crawfish or snow crab, this is the place I want to go. I absolutely love their Cajun sauce—it has a unique flavor that stands out and tastes unlike anywhere else. My child loves the garlic sauce, and lately their garlic butter sauce has been even better—so flavorful, buttery, and delicious.

What I appreciate most is that this is a family-owned business. I can see they’ve been working hard to improve and make positive changes. Running a small business is never easy, and I truly respect their effort.

I’ll continue supporting them and hope more people give them a chance.“

“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!“

“I really recommend Juicy Claws 🦞 they have excellent food a lot of options it’s delicious 🤤 and the great thing about it it’s that even they’re a seafood restaurant it’s not fishy smelly 😅 so am glad 😃“

“Great drinks with low key atmosphere“

“We visited Moonshine Bar & Grill this weekend, and I can honestly say it exceeded every expectation. From the moment the food arrived, it was clear we were in for something special—chef’s kiss doesn’t even begin to cover it! Every dish was perfectly prepared, full of flavor, and clearly made with care and excellence. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the service was attentive, and the overall experience was simply top-tier. This is the kind of place that reminds you why great food and great hospitality matter. 10 out of 10— We will absolutely be recommending Moonshine Bar & Grill and can’t wait to return! 🍽️✨“

“Great little hideout in the Domain.“

“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!“

“If you’re anywhere near Archer Hotel and not sitting at this bar… you are already making the wrong decision.
Wyatt and I came in to celebrate our anniversary (and casually said it was our anniversary too because… why not 😌), and BABY—within FIVE minutes, Jake came back out with cake and ice cream like he had been waiting his whole life for this moment. No hesitation. No “let me check.” Just straight excellence.

Now let’s talk about Valery —because when I say “bartender in chief,” I mean she is running the whole experience like a CEO. She is locked in. The level of detail, the attentiveness, the way she listens AND observes… it’s giving elite. You don’t even have to ask—she already caught it. And on top of that, the conversation.. 10/10. Engaging, natural, not forced. The kind of energy that makes you sit longer than you planned and order one more round just to keep the vibe going.
Jake—so kind, so smooth with it, and clearly about the guest experience. That quick thoughtful gesture is the stuff you don’t forget. It wasn’t just service—it felt personal.
And THAT is the difference.
They didn’t just serve drinks—they made us feel celebrated. Seen. Taken care of. Like we walked in as guests and left as family. You can’t train customer service like that —you either have it or you don’t. And they BOTH have it. We will be back… not once, not twice… but a smooth 1,000 times Give them all the snaps. All the raises. All the recognition.

Because THAT is how you create an experience.“

“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.“

“Bobby and Juanita are wonderful servers, the chicken tortilla soup, floutas, enchiladas, queso, and tacos a la betty are fantastic, and the back patio, especially when there is live music, is a total vibe! These pics are from my birthday dinner last night, but we are regulars and fan favs!“

“The Bartenders are professional and knowledgeable. Each member of the staff always has a smile. The DJs that are hired play music that everyone can enjoy! This place has a fun party atmosphere.... Always a fun time!“

“Great service, delicious food and drinks!“

“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!“

“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.“

“This hotel restaurant is 5 minutes from our house. It’s been there for approximately 2 1/2 years and I had no idea it existed. While running errands at five in the evening I decided I didn’t want to cook so I googled restaurants in my zip code. This restaurant popped up with 4.5 stars. The reviews were impressive so we decided to try it. I’m so happy that we did. The hotel and grounds are beautiful. The restaurant is lovely, well appointed, and has great ambience. The bar tender, Ray, was so attentive and helpful with the menu. Probably the best martini I’ve ever had. I don’t say that lightly as our business was based in travel so I’ve dined in some very prestigious hotel restaurants as well as enjoyed fine dining during many business dinners. The drinks were stellar and the food exceeded my expectations. We enjoyed the lamb meatballs in an agradolce sauce and the brisket nachos. Both were superb. I am extremely critical of food as I’m a very good cook(aspiring chef)😊 This will be on our frequent flyer list from now on. The prices are very reasonable. In today’s economy we have experienced a sudden and universal decline in food quality with more than a few restaurants. This was such a pleasure, surprise, and all around delightful experience. Fresh ingredients with perfectly blended spices speak for themselves.“

“Amazing happy hours and the sushi is great!“

“Love everything about it ❤️😍🙌“

“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.“

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

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

“This was my first visit to Bazille, and as I told our delightful waiter....It will not be my last! I absolutely LOVED everything about Bazille. The food, service, and ambiance were superb. I personally ordered the Halibut & Chips and it was phenomenal!! Highly recommend, and am already planning my next visit!“

“Hoot & Annie was the perfect place to celebrate my NYE birthday! Thank you to Isaac for handling the reservation & serving delicious cocktails. I will definitely be back soon 😊“

“Had dinner here with a colleague based on their suggestion. We ordered a spread of items and shared everything which I would suggest to get a taste of many different items. We ordered the Pulled Pork Tostadas, Crispy Fried Thai Ribs, The Pork Belly, Brussel Sprouts, and Charred Broccoli. Overall, the Crispy Ribs were both our favorite. Pork Belly was really good and super tender. Pulled Pork Tostadas were good but nothing really special. Sides of Brussel Sprouts and Broccoli were both good but definitely would say the Brussel Sprouts were the better of the 2. We ordered all of that and each had a beer for $84.“

“This was of my favorite go to restaurants. I’m highly disappointed they don’t have my go to quinoa bowl.“

“Ended up at The Water Trough and it had that easy, outdoorsy feel right away. The open space and casual setup make it perfect for hanging out with friends without any pressure. Drinks were solid and the whole vibe just felt relaxed. It's the kind of place where you show up and stay longer than planned.“

“This was of my favorite go to restaurants. I’m highly disappointed they don’t have my go to quinoa bowl.“
