From the elegant, timeless lobby, walk up the grand staircase and enter into old-world Texas, fit for a cattle baron. Named one of the 10 Best Hotel Bars in America by USA Today and The Best Bar in Texas by Southern Living, The Driskill Bar is, without question, as Texas as it gets for downtown Austin bars. With its rustic leather couches, cowhide barstools, cattle branded custom carpet, and the grand Texas Longhorn adorning the wall, you will have no question where you sit as you sip your whiskey cocktail. The Driskill Bar offers a relaxed atmosphere, bracing spirits, fine wines and good friendships.
Important Notice
The Driskill Bar is undergoing a remarkable restoration and will reopen in October 2025. In the meantime, we invite you to enjoy our signature hospitality in the Main Lobby.
Thank you for your support—we can’t wait to welcome you back!
