【ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━━┻ ┻━┻ ︵ ლ(-᷅_-᷄ლ) If you don't know you need to know this is the place to be at on the weekends. This retro club/bar is so unique that it feels like you're stepping back in time⏱️⌛ as soon as you walk into this establishment. Yet don't get me started on some of the classic free retro games they have at this club. Yet to be exact Pac-Man Street Fighter are some of the classic games they have here. Yet the music is definitely some heart pounding music from back in the day. And did I mention they also play 80's 90's, etc, and early two thousand music here. O' wait there's more this is two clubs/bars in one, thus meaning, you also get to jam out to some fire latino music and chill calm reggaeton music by simply walking over to their secondary; bar/club, that is within the same building. Although don't take my word for all I'm saying just show up and find out for yourself about this club. Also bring your friends and family for a great time at Be Kind & Rewind just remember this club is 21+ and up. Yet I'll end this review by giving a huge shout out to a few people I personally knew there, specifically (GM) Mr. chris and Assistant (GM) Mr. Adrian, as well as Managers, Alex, Camille, Jrod, Angel, Javi, etc. And of course a huge shout out to the current security team that keeps this place safe, I see y'all keep up the great work. ♀️ Yet also a major shout-out to the staff members, bar tenders, etc. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣤⣤⣄⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⡶⠟⠛⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⢻⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣧⠀⢀⣤⢤⠤⢤⣄⣘⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⠤⠼⡄⢿⣿⡇⣯⠭⢽⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠖⠚⠻⠾⠟⠒⢋⣀⡀⢻⣷⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣴⡿⠶⠶⠒⢒⡛⠋⠉⠙⢛⠋⠛⠛⠿⣶⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⢰⣾⠟⠉⠀⣀⣠⠶⣶⣻⠋⢙⣿⠿⣿⣻⡷⣦⣄⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣄⣴⠛⢩⠇⢸⡿⡟⠃⠀⢽⡛⠓⠛⢳⣈⡿⢻⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣻⣧⠘⣧⠈⠀⠉⠀⠀⡀⣁⣠⠀⢸⢿⣷⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠿⣿⠀⡇⠐⣶⠀⠈⡶⠇⢰⠇⢀⣾⢿⡍⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣀⡳⣄⡀⠑⠶⠴⠞⢁⣠⠾⢣⣤⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⡿⠋⠙⣇⣠⠉⠛⠒⠲⠞⠛⠁⢲⡾⢿⣶⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⣰⡿⠋⠀⡄⠀⠈⢹⣤⢤⡀⢰⣦⣰⡖⠛⠃⣆⠙⢿⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢀⣼⡟⠀⢀⣾⡇⢠⡶⠋⠁⢸⠉⠹⣏⠉⢛⣶⠆⠸⣧⣀⠹⣷⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⣼⠟⠀⢀⠎⣼⠀⠀⠉⠓⢦⡼⠀⠀⠹⣤⣎⡁⠀⠀⣷⣉⡷⠈⠻⣷⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠘⣿⣄⠀⠙⢦⣿⠀⠀⢠⣴⠚⡇⠀⠀⠀⢻⣼⠁⠀⠀⢸⡿⠁⠀⠀⣸⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠈⢿⣆⠀⢠⣿⡄⠀⠀⠙⢾⣁⣀⣀⣀⣈⣳⡀⠀⠀⢸⣁⣀⢀⣼⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⠋⠈⣇⠀⠀⠀⣾⠁⡼⢧⠥⡌⡿⢧⠀⠀⢸⠁⠈⢉⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⣴⡿⣧⣤⡿⠀⠀⠀⣿⣆⣳⣦⣤⣿⣷⣺⡇⠀⢸⣦⣤⣾⢻⣶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠙⢻⣿⠟⠀⠀⠀⢸⠿⠶⣶⣤⣀⣠⠞⠁⢹⣄⠀⠀⢹⣯⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⣿⠟⠛⠙⠋⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⣆⠀⠀⢹⣷⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⡿⠿⢷⣦⠀⠀⠀⠙⠛⠛⠹⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⡇⠀⠈⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⣷⣦⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣷⡀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⣾⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠿⣿⣶⣦⣤⣼⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣧⣤⠶⣾⣿⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⣠⡀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⣒⣶⣼⡟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣶⠊⣀⡽⣧⡀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣷⠀ ⣿⣶⣤⣤⣤⣀⣠⣿⠓⠤⢬⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣏⣁⠤⢿⣷⣀⣴⡿⠁⢹⡆ ⢻⣇⠈⠉⣿⣿⣿⠻⣭⣵⣾⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣶⠒⣉⣿⡟⠋⠀⠀⣿⠁ ⠀⠻⣦⣄⠙⠛⠋⠀⢀⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⡏⠻⢿⣟⣠⣤⡾⠋⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠉⠻⠿⠷⠿⠿⠷⠾⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠷⣶⡿⠋⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Came here in Saturday night for a friends birthday. As others have stated parking sucks but it’s what you expect when coming downtown San Antonio so nothing you should be surprised about. Our friends had a booth reserved. Servers were incredibly attentive and came by often we arrive at about 8pm and left around midnight. We had a pleasant experience with the gentleman at the door. No one was rude or difficult. The crowd was a mixture of ages and attire which was fine. The decor was nicely done. The music was a throwback but honestly in my opinion left a lot to be desired and that’s what I’m my opinion people are coming for. While the music videos are a nice touch I think that because of them the mix is pre done and they play each song in its entirety. The DJ’s can’t gauge the crowd and hype them up by moving on to the next song or focusing on the chorus parts. I’m guessing this because how seamlessly the video transitions from one song to another. Essentially the crowds excitement/dancing goes in to a lull for a period of each song. Overall we had a good night, there are small things they could do to fine tune and improve but I would come here again with my girlfriends.

Horrible experience!!! RACIST I was walking on the street and saw the "Be Kind &Rewind " sign. There are some stairs to get in the bar. So I stepped up the stairs and tried to see the atmosphere. And then this african american woman started screaming like crazy to me like I did something wrong. Apparently, she was a security or something like that, but when I stepped up the stairs she was so busy having a conversation with someone else doing I don't know what except her job so she didn't even see me until I was up. She was really rude and I ask why you were screaming at me so badly. I didn't do anything wrong. I asked her also to respect me because I didn't do anything that she told me not to do it. It was definitely a racist act against my Latino ethnicity. She was just so loud that I would never go back here and I will advise all the people I know not to come and support this kind of business. Afte I ask why she screaming at me she call the police on me and she told me to go to and to sh.... th.... fk.... she also rece her middle finger to offend me. I really hope management picks better their employees and take in consideration that Latino are majority in the city and just as white and black we all need to be respected.
I went on a Friday and it was ok. I wouldn’t go back though simply because it’s really nothing special. Music imho is god awful. You have an inconsistent dj spinning the standard hits of 80s, 90s and 00s with very little mixing abilities and in the front room was rap, reggaeton and as I was leaving i heard some mediocre bigroom dance music. Drinks are ok and the staff is nice enough. It was nice to have a staff member walking around taking drink orders and opening tabs just mindful that you cant open a tab with that waitress if you have a tab open at the bar. The crowd is a mixed bag but everyone seems to be mindlessly happy which is good I suppose, just not my sort of crowd or scene, I sorta felt like it was San Antonio meets jersey shore. The decor and games is a cool feature and the disco balls over the floor. Speaking of dancefloor - it was small and I. Front of the dj booth you have people filtering in and out from the bar to the exit which isn’t ideal imo. The music was a little too loud for that small dance space. The bass was nice but again seemed a little too loud for the space.

Drinks were spot on, didn't order food here, so cannot speak on that. The atmosphere in this bar is neat, it's got a funky 80s vibe to it, the menus are in vhs cases, which provided quite the giggle when it came out. The music ties into the theme, adds a very retro vibe. The drinks are great, my buddy ordered the Weird Science, which did not disappoint, served in a mixing beaker served with a dry ice puck to add smoke/bubbles. I had the All my Exes, slight spice from the jalapeños, with a good amount of sweet to it. Most of the drinks are priced reasonably, all things considered, considering there are places in the area that charge the same or more for less. The bartender, Angel, was up to the task of "surprise me" and did not disappoint with minimal information. A simple "whiskey and semi sweet" was enough for him to bring out a great drink. The other bartender Erika is equally as knowledgeable about the drinks and was quick with tweaks or suggests to cocktail orders. Staff overall is super friendly and great to have general conversation with. Great place to just hang out and enjoy your time.

The place was super cute I loved the vibe and music but the bartenders and waitresses are DEFINITELY SCAMMERS AND THEIFS, we went for my sister's birthday and all of us had charges of separate 5$ charges for things we didn't even buy and the waitress was tipping herself and got a drink on my card and tipped herself again and while at the club the bartender said it was a mistake and that he would fix it but my bank statement showed otherwise the next day and also the place felt like they had NO AC,We all were soo hot and dripping sweat, I Also hate it so much that they have the bathrooms 2 flight of stairs down and they don't have handicap access when it was needed, Alone my bill came out to 97$ and all I got was a few $7 modelos and 3 9$ Blue Hawaiians, I definitely will not be going back to this place due to the staff but the place itself was awesome BESIDES THE AC problem to.

Wheelchair accessibility
They have no wheelchair accessibility and it was desperately needed
Came for the 1st time for a birthday party. We were not allowed in with the birthday gift which was a candle, an insulated wine flute ( EMPTY) & a mini bottle of sparkling wine. I understand the alcohol but the cup? The security guards were immature and rude and immature. We had to walk back to River Center parking to put the gift in the car. Once we got back we tried to find our party group & when we asked we were told to "walk around". When going out to smoke security once again stopped us & said we had to go to the front entrance though the street is not part of the bar. Ridiculous. The main room bartenders were professional and nice, the reason for 3 stars. The music was great in the main room. In the back bar the music was garbage, the bartenders were rude and the vibe was trash, both the people and staff. I was disappointed overall & do not intend to recommend or return. Very sad that Alamo Plaza has turned into such a ghetto place.

As a child of the 80's what can I say? This place is amazing. Super Retro and soooooooo many memories. This place is decked out in so much 80's memorabilia that it was hard to focus in just one area. Everywhere you looked, you spotted a different 80's gem that triggered another memory. We met some friends on a Sunday night and apparently it was karaoke night. Not just karaoke night but 80s karaoke. Let's just say it was fun watching/hearing 1) Millennials sing some of these classic tunes they were unfamiliar with 2) Tipsy GenXers sing songs from their youth 3) Someone really familiar with their choice of song and having them sing and act it out (dude, singing Like A Virgin, I'm looking at you) Not sure what I'm more impressed with, all the memorabilia they managed to collect, their amazing drink menu or their awesome playlist. I know one thing though, this is one of the best bars in SA. Pro tip: Ride share there cause parking is pain
Like many places in SA. This place has lost its soul. The promise of a retro experience has fallen to a bored DJ who only wants to listen to his or her favorite bad music. I’m down for whatever gets the people on the dance floor…. But the ignorance of the worker’s comprehension of the theme is insulting. I was told it was 2000’s night, yet we didn’t dance to his favorite hip hop from when ever. I love hip hop, Circa Drais in the Cromwell of vegas, but the blatant disregard for the patrons wishing to have a retro birthday party, and there are multiple, is just annoying and insulting. Be what you want to be, make all the money you can, but stop pretending you are a what the phrase ‘be kind rewind’ means to unsuspecting locals and visitors.

Atmosphere was great, music was hitting, was having a great time until I went to the bar to order 12 green tea shots, mind you they were $4 a shot. 12x4=$48 not including tip. The bar tender charged me $96 for the 12 green tea shots. I only found out about the actual price of the shots after my brother went up to buy another 12 green tea shots. Since I had paid $96 for the first 12 I initially thought that was pretty steep, but didn’t think about it at that moment and just paid. I asked my brother how much he paid and he paid $48 for the exact same amount of shots but got charged the correct amount for green tea shots. Bartender in question, working from about 3-9 pm wearing a tan/brown sweater.

The place is way too hot and needs more air conditioning in different places. It was dirty, everywhere. Bathrooms were disgusting. Dance areas are way too small for the crowds that go in. I really didn't care for leaving my drink with male attendant before going downstairs to bathroom, as women we are supposed to keep an eye on our drinks. I threw it out after.

Parking
Good luck with parking, closest garages are $35-$45 for the evening! Ladies, wear sensible shoes if you want to park further to save money. Costs more to park downtown than at Disney World!
I went in on Sunday night for karaoke! I had a blast! Taren and Angel was taking care of me and I truly adore those two! One recommended an orange creamsicle and the other recommended me a Weird Science! I was already feeling it after those two drinks, these two bartenders was always asking me if I was ok and if I was hungry and so on. I was very please with the service and they even motivated me to sing. This will be my new spot! Ask for them!!!

Very sweet and nice staff!
I am not too huge into the bar scene. However, we came to be kind and rewind simply because of the fact that it was our anniversary. We were walking along the Riverwalk and downtown and we saw it. It was interesting when in. Got myself a nice Curious George shot and my wife got a love potion number nine and we enjoyed ourselves. I don't know how to describe this other than this one simple sentence. It felt like for a brief moment. I went back to being a college student again.

I didn’t try any food but we went for my bachelorette party. The vibes were great! The drinks were great! Our hosted was AMAZING! Game is a booth seat right by the Dance Floor. Came to us to make sure we had drinks. Even offered me water when I was starting to feel a little too good. The people there were so chill & nice. They had music from all generations. It was such a blast! The drinks are really good priced. The shots were good prices. All in all a great experience!

This was my first time going and I was actually excited because of its 90s theme bar but I'm not sure that will go back. The bar was so hot I sweating the whole time I was there and could not enjoy myself. The 2nd issue is that the drinks so are redicously priced 7 bucks for a beer and 20 bucks for a simple mixed drink. I use to some bars charging a little more than other but this place Def over did the pricing on their drinks and I just don't think it's worth another visit.

First time on a friday night. 80's music videos brought back memories. Bar service good and bartenders friendly. Ordered nachos and fried pickles on point! Just don't understand why guys have to go outside to use facilities when there are working ones downstairs. Then portable restroom although nice and ac has only one side open for guys with two stalls. The kicker you have to stand in line to get back in from using facilities. Not ideal for guys.

Absolutely terrible experience. I came in for ONE drink while walking to my hotel. There’s a bathroom outside of their premises and I opened the door for a lady because I was being nice and I got YELLED at like if I was gonna abuse her. I did not walk in because that was not my intention and one of the workers told me I HAVE TO step away from the ladies bathroom event though I was outside. SUPER UNPROFFESIONAL. A police officer had to step in and tell him it wasn’t that big of a deal. Train your bouncers to be cordial.
This place rocks! One of my favorite Happy Hour Spots in SATX. Happy hour drink specials and the wings are on point! If you’re an 80s, 90s, 00s music and music video fanatic this is YOUR place. All the deco and entertainment is top notch, even has a little throwback museum of stuff I used to play with . Very instagrammable location. Did I mention the wings oh yea I did lol. Highly recommend to locals to come chill and tourist should definitely pay it a visit. Excellent staff and service! Come on down!
What a great venue and Bar/Club. I've actually tried getting in before during peek times and had no luck. Fortunately for my family and i, going during the afternoon after 4 on a Sunday worked out well! There's still a little wait at the bar even though it's not super busy so be prepared. Very kind bartenders and staff. Lots to see and do so come ready to enjoy. This might just become a regular Sunday afternoon, early evening frequent stop for us! Next time I'd like to try the food!
Be kind ?? Unfortunately we did not experience kindness from management and bouncers. My friends and I were denied entrance due to my friends ID not matching their photo (they are in their transition). Keep in mind the ID wasn’t even expired. They displayed acts of hate. Very transphobic. Managers had to be called to check the situation out. Bar inside is incredibly packed, hard to get around and takes a long while to get a pricey drink. Not that great of an experience.
Overall awesome vibes! Love the aesthetics and the different themes throughout the club. Drinks are fun. Love that there’s no cover. The one piece of feedback I would offer is with the music from the DJ, they should weave in some current dance hits and/or current remixes of some of the 80’s hits. I’ve been there three times now and it has always been 100% 80’s which is alright but I think a good DJ knows how to mix it up even in a themed bar. Overall very fun place
Great vibes good priced drinks. Karaoke was fun but rudely denied me to use the restroom before leaving, even though I asked the bartender before trying. And dude also said no rush but you have 2 minutes to finish your drinks. Guy with the tattoos on the side of his face could totally have a better attitude for people who are trying to use the facilities of a bar.

Really fun bar in downtown San Antonio. The service was good. There are plenty of places to sit, a good size dance floor with great music! The drinks are themed and very sweet, but they have a full bar to choose from. There are so many great photo ops. The only negative is that there were no inside restrooms. We had to walk outside and use portable restrooms (which were nicer than your normal porta potties, but still inconvenient.
We had so much fun celebrating my wife’s birthday Saturday night! Unfortunately, we had someone a part of your staff swipe our card number and use it at your bar again last night for $141.00, and in the Cibolo area yesterday. You may want to look into, as my bank has issued a fraud case and will be investigating. Such a fun spot, bummer we can’t visit again…

This bar is such a vibe! When walking in you're immediately hit with nostalgia being greeted by some old school TV's playing movies & such. There's an arcade room with most machines being free to play. Plenty of rooms with Instagramable decor left & right. The drinks were delightful with & cool twist for the menus. The serve food though I wasn't able to try any. Can't wait to go back for more Vintage nights
Didn’t have the food but they did tell me that they will be discontinuing the food. Place was freaking awesome a place where I saw NO one take pictures and so into the dancing! Some of the arcade games are FREE alot of nostalgia. Definitely worth it and coming back again! They do have security walking the floor and they do wand you down to make sure you have nothing!

Born in 1970 and travelled from Austin for this place. Totally worth it!!! I've been a DJ for over 30 years and these cats killed it. Mad respect!

I cannot speak to the food as I did not eat here. I also can't speak to the price of drinks since I did not pay for them. Don't drinks always taste better when someone else buys them?! The venue is absolutely wonderful with all its retro decor and the DJ spun a perfect blend of nostalgia and beats that make you want to get on the dance floor. I will recommend to friends!

Bartenders were really friendly, drinks were good, music was great and omg they play the videos to the songs! Lots of selfie/pic opportunities. Really took me back to my childhood lol.
Guuurl! We went to celebrate my birthday and we had the best time ever . They have several rooms with all kinds of music to dance to and oh how we danced. The beverages were also unique and tasty, and there was something for everyone. I highly recommend and can't wait to go back!!!

What a cute spot! Loved all the colors and the burger was AMAZING! not too too many places to sit so i would get there early/ with few people/ or grab some drinks only! They have a place for dancing but because of this there is little table space. Super cool spot! Women’s restroom is the entire downstairs, but apparently the men’s restroom is outside and around the corner?
This place is awesome and the staff is great. Lots of fun games and crazy places to take photos. Climb into a claw machine, check out the hallway of nostalgia, and lose at the Simpsons...for free.99. If I lived down there, I'd be a regular.

The drinks were okay, the music was alright, the staff were fine but lots of standing around on the dance floor. Definitely for an older crowd and I say that as someone in their mid twenties. The aesthetics were super cool but not worth the wait. I would say itd be a cool place to come in for during the day for a couple drinks than for a fun night out.
Great place, fun, no VIP, no bottle service, no lines, just fun and dancing. Great bartenders, food was great, the gluten free pizza was very good, affordable prices, no cover, super instagramable, careful, floors get wet and slippery on the dance floor and parking is a bit of a challenge, but this should not keep you from going, too much fun!!
Been comming here for a couple weeks (new to town) and my go to bartender is Joey. Love his attitude and work ethic. He's the best. He pays attention and is quick at what he does. He van take care of multiple people at once and hits it on the nail every time. Highly recommend this place and when you come ask for Joey! You won't be disappointed
Almost didn't go in because of the rudeness of the door guy. After some convincing, went inside and enjoyed the nostalgia and music. Baretender Elizabeth "Liz" made some really good drinks. Other than the rude door guy, not easy finding parking or navigating downtown either.

Girls night was soo fun here! I expected more variety of music, not sure if we went on an 80’s music night. But my gals and I were still dancing to it! I would say it was more of a 25+ and we are younger than that . They have free games and a different side that plays other music. I would recommend their Piña Colada was soooo good! …
The security staff is all misinformed. Telling its a city code that they have to scan your bar code on your ID. The proceeded to say it was company policy. So I really don't plan on returning due to this issue. Maybe the need to be retrained under tabc

Be Kind & Rewind is a retro club through and through. The decor, the music with music videos, full-size arcade games, boom box and cassette player wall, the colors, and the wall of video tape movies were all spot on - 1990's baby! There's even a Selena mural. Lots of nooks to hang out in too. Nothing but good vibes there!
I had a great time on Sunday. I didn’t know it was karaoke night, but it was so much fun. Taren was my bartender, she was great. She recommended a drink to me called “all my ex’s” and it didn’t disappoint. I will be back my next visit to San Antonio.”

Such a good vibe. We went on a Thursday and it was a good crowd without feeling crowded. Buuuuuut we went based off the Instagram profile expecting some cool drink pours. We ended up with basic drinks in plastic cups. Still had a good time dancing because the playlist was great. I'd still go back when I'm in town.
Loved this place. The music was great, the drinks were wonderful and the atmosphere was top tier. I do wish there were more places to sit other than outside and the one table we saw inside but nonetheless a great experience and I cannot wait to go back.

Play zero ‘80s music & focus on the worst R&B songs of the late 90s & 2000s. If you are looking for trash you’ve come to the right place. Backwards hats, skinny beards, bright white tennis shoes. If you are searching for the “why” people leave San Antonio this is your spot.
The hottest bar in downtown San Antonio! The vibes, drinks and music are unmatched. They even have arcade and table top games! The only gripe I have is that the bathrooms are very small with only have 2 stalls, so the line to use the bathroom went all the way up the stairs.
We took a party bus to this location for my 45th birthday and we weren’t allowed in because my wife was dancing as we walked in. She wasn’t even drunk. Congratulations, you just denied entry to a party bus full of people with money.

Awesome atmosphere with great throwback hits. Dance floor is always packed with people of all ages. Bar service is a little slow but the servers & bouncers are super friendly. One of the better spots to dance in San Antonio.

The best experience ever. Drinks were on point! Food was delicious and fresh. Staff were friendly and helpful. To the owner who created this place. You have an amazing imagination to come up with this take me back to the 80s theme. We will definitely go back
This was absolutely the best find in San Antonio. Every song was a banger. I don't know when the last time I had this much fun was. Highly recommend, will definitely be coming back!

Bartenders were cool!
By far the best 90s / Y2ks Night in town, perfect sound system, videos playing on the screens, and fun atmosphere! Love it here on Saturdays. They also have an 80s night on Fridays. Definitely a go to spot for a good time dancing with friends!
I came in for the first time on Sunday for karaoke. Taren was my bartender she was amazing. This place was awesome, definitely loved the vibe. Will be coming back for sure.

This place was amazin! A great throwback feel, even though the dance floor is smaller - it was bumping! Younger crowd too. Restrooms for ladies, only 2 stalls and a dirty mess. Bring your own TP!

I'm super sad. This place has changed. It's gotten run down and trashed. Bathrooms not functioning either. I used to absolutely love this place. Hope it gets cleaned up. It's still very cute but needs lots of love to get back in shape
No matter how nice a place is and how good the music is if the bar staff isn’t 100% it’s not going to be a good time. Luckily that wasn’t the case because the bartender Angel was quick and made some awesome drinks. …
Group of 5, we had a great time. Like that they take everyone’a safety seriously and check everyone for weapons at the door. Drinks were good and staff bartenders were actually really friendly! Music from the DJ was perfect.
Great music, and a wonderful crowd made this visit one to remember. Also the drinks were very reasonably priced. If you love the 80s, you will love this experience!

It is so amazing, the word amazing doesn't justify it. But if it's a place you must go, it's here. Plus the service is quick to attend you. FYI, don't give them a hard time. They have enough people to deal with.
This place was so much fun! Perfect way to satisfy my 80s/90s nostalgia soul! The bartenders are all very kind and attentive, atmosphere is amazing and picture perfect.

Such a cool bar! We went to 90s and early 2000s night and loved the throwback music. Nice area to step outside of ya need. Fun drinks and probably the coolest decor I’ve seen in a club!
We visited from Houston, and we absolutely loved it! They play 90' easrly 2000' throwbacks, and I was loving it. If you want to jam and party to that hood old school music go here!!
Drinks were good. Service and atmosphere also good... Was a pretty packed house most of the night. Had a great time. Will definitely be back.

Get a flashback! The steris, the VHS movies, etc. It's all nostalgic. The drinks are at a good price and they are good. Great way to travel to the 80-90's. IG- love_to_exist
