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The Esquire Tavern is the oldest bar on the San Antonio Riverwalk, opened the year, month and day that Prohibition was repealed.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 cannot recommend this restaurant enough! First of all, the vibes are incredible. The restaurant is smaller and feels more intimate. The service is wonderful (shoutout to you, Grace). Everything we ordered was incredible, so I don’t think you could ever go wrong. For how nice of a place this was and how good the food is, the price was very reasonable. This is our new favorite place to eat! This is some of the BEST food I’ve had in SA.

    Although the weather was cold and we reserved the balcony seating, we were provided blankets. The waitress, Delilah, was very cordial and friendly. The food, wine, drinks, and Valentine’s Day ambience was wonderful. The Rose and heart candle made it that much more romantic! Thank you!
