On The Rocks Pub

Yelp Stars: 4 | Reviews: 85 | Miles from the Alamodome: 0.7
Sample Yelp Review: "Had a blast here. The drinks were good and the DJ was awesome. He played all the hits from today and back to the 80's, with videos playing along with the music. It took a while for people to start dancing but when they did it was a good time...they have pool tables if you wanna play or table tops to sit and relax. They also have TVs to keep up with all the games." (—Ron V.)
Drink Texas
200 Navarro St. Ste 100 San Antonio, TX 78205
Yelp Stars: 4 | Reviews: 82 | Miles from the Alamodome 0.8
Sample Yelp Review: "If you want a cheap happy hour place that lasts a considerable time, Drink Texas is your place. I will say it's a hit or miss when it comes to how strong your drinks are or whether or not the soda is flat...The place is divey but clean. There's ample seating — couches, tall tables, bar seats, etc. They definitely could care less about why you're there as long as you're a paying patron. That is nice when you're just catching up with friends over some cheap drinks...Drink Texas is also centrally located in terms of Downtown San Antonio so if you're ever in the area, this is a place I'd definitely recommend! Note there are "bar snacks" here but I definitely wouldn't recommend them unless you're starving." (—Mylinh H.)
