Located in the heart of downtown, The Esquire Tavern is the oldest bar on the San Antonio Riverwalk, opened the year, month and day that Prohibition was repealed. Tending bar in the early days was a highly prized and much sought after craft. Bar keeps then created many of their own syrups, mixes and concoctions and used the freshest of juices with the intention of serving the best products. We at the Esquire have taken a serious approach to the old world of bartending and spun it with a modern twist. Combining classic techniques and new world flavors and culinary concepts, our goal is to lead and set San Antonio's emerging cocktail culture on the map.

I keep returning to the Esquire. We sat on the outdoor seating overlooking the San Antonio Riverwalk on a perfect evening. My friend and I both ordered a cognac French 75 cocktail (one of the best in San Antonio) and the Mussels (Moules Frites). The French 75 never disappoints. This was my first time to try the mussels. I will definitely order again! Service was wonderful and attentive. We didn't have to worry about making our show at the Majestic Theatre nearby.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing to return to The Esquire! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the outdoor seating with a view of the Riverwalk, and that the French 75 and Mussels hit the spot. We love hearing that our service helped make your experience even more enjoyable, especially with your show at the Majestic in mind. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another great time soon! Cheers!

Esquire Tavern has a cool, vintage vibe, and it’s clear they take pride in their history as the longest wooden bar in Texas. The dim lighting and old-school decor create a nice atmosphere, but it can feel a little cramped and noisy, especially on weekends. The cocktails are solid, but they don’t always live up to the hype. Some drinks are well-balanced, while others feel a bit off, either too strong or too sweet. The food is decent—better than your average bar fare—but nothing particularly memorable. The burger is good, but I’ve had better in town. Service can be hit or miss. Sometimes the bartenders are friendly and attentive, but other times it takes forever to get a drink. If you’re patient and enjoy the ambiance, it’s a decent spot to grab a drink downtown. Otherwise, there are plenty of other places in San Antonio that offer a better overall experience.

It was my first time dining here and it was good. Food was decent, south Texas quail legs and it was very bland, the kitchen omitted the honey-chili dressing. I had steak and fries which were good. Overall, it was decent and I would definitely recommend it and visit again.

I’ve eaten several times at Esquire Tavern throughout the years, and this recent visit was the most disappointing dining experience. Unfortunately, their updated menu doesn’t stand up to their previous food offerings (like the fried chicken sandwich). The shredded chicken that was added to the Esquire Salad was pretty flavorless, albeit the rest of the salad tasted fresh. My partner got the tomato soup with “freshly baked cheese toast”. Where he enjoyed the soup, the cheese “toast” left much to be desired. It came out with what looked like a runny cheese sauce, only to find out it was a flavorless melted cheese with a texture like chewing gum. The bread itself was very soggy and not crispy at all. When we sent the bread back the waitress seemed put out and annoyed. To their credit, the cocktails are pretty solid. And the Downstairs speak easy has a quieter, cozy vibe, if you’re looking for a cool space to have a conversation.

So dark inside you couldn't even see your food to eat! All tables around us were using phone flashlights to see. Food was quite good. Cheese bread was amazing.

With a cool, dark, rich wood ambience it makes this a very enjoyable experience on the San Antonio Riverwalk. Their drink menu does not disappoint and they have every type of spirit you can think of. The Buffalo burger is absolutely fantastic and their spin on tomato soup was equally enjoyable. They accept Reservations and the wait staff is very friendly. This restaurant is located right in the heart of many other fun experiences along the Riverwalk.

We look forward to your next visit!
