Whisler's offers a unique experience at their breathtaking indoor bar, surrounded by chandeliers and photo galleries, as well as, their dreamy patio with string lights. It’s a great daytime and nighttime spot that brings in a line on the weekends and can easily be a go-to weeknight spot as well.

WHISLER'S
Whisler’s prides itself in being one of Austin’s best craft cocktail bars in an old building on the eastside (built in 1917) that maintains that classic Austin spirit and atmosphere. And, their best-kept secret is their second level which is a very small and quaint space, Mezcalaría Tobalá, serving up so many different mezcals for tastings or infused into cocktails.
ATMOSPHERE
How does one blend classic Austin eclectic decor mixed with an intimate and cozy interior that a small NYC speakeasy offers? Well look no further because that is exactly what Whisler’s has served up in the middle of the eastside bars and restaurants. On weekends, this spot will attract a crowd but their big patio space leaves room for groups to hangout and sip on some craft cocktails.
COCKTAILS
In their main bar downstairs, they often refresh their cocktail menu. Season changes come with new menus but they also offer a full bar for any of your own creations. From mezcal to gin, to hibiscus vodka and Japanese Whiskey, you’re sure to find your new favorite liquor with a combination you’ve never tried before.
Whether you’re on the East Side or you’re making a special trip for these specialty cocktails, Whisler's will not disappoint. A cute post-date spot or grab a group of girlfriends for a Saturday night out and step out of your comfort zone to try one of their delicious cocktails.
