The bartenders here are THE BEST!!! The book collection is to die for, and the whole place has such a cute, intimate feel.
It’s a perfect spot to grab a drink and hang out. The crowd can vary quite a bit depending on the day, but it’s usually a good time!

Fantastic drinks, Great vibe with excellent service. It was a little slow for the drinks, but it tasted delicious.
We were in a mood for after dinner cocktails and stumbled upon Babou's when we saw Saint Ann was empty. No idea this was here. At first I thought maybe were too old for this place (48-50). Nope we fit right in. Great cocktails, great music, great staff.

Babou's is a hidden gem for cocktail enthusiasts, offering an immersive speakeasy experience. Stepping through the discreet entrance on N Hardwood St, guests are welcomed into a cozy, library-themed room with dim lighting and books stacked along the wall. The ambiance is enhanced by plush velvet seating, a lit fireplace, and an air of mystery. The bartenders craft incredible cocktails like the Salvador Dali, catering to both seasoned enthusiasts and curious newcomers. The staff is exceptional—knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive, ensuring a memorable visit. The live jazz band and jazz nights on Thursdays create a lively yet sophisticated atmosphere, perfect for socializing, celebrating a special occasion, or a first date. The Lobster roll is very solid, and the vibes are immaculate. Visitors also enjoy chatting with staff about fun facts, such as details about the Salvador Dali pictures and bathroom tiles, adding to the fun night. It’s recommended to make a reservation, as walk-ins may find tables reserved. The place is absolutely beautiful, with a more formal attire suggested, and features fantastic cocktails, great music, and good food. Overall, Babou's is a must-visit in Dallas for those seeking exceptional cocktails, great music, and a touch of old-world glamour. It’s perfect for a girl's night out, unwinding after work, or feeling transported to another era.
