This was my first time at the driskill bar and it is beautiful! The bar is nicely situated. I ordered the cheese and charcuterie plater and it was delicious! The staff was really nice and even though we had a bunch if people and had to steal a bunch of seats. The drinks are true drinks. One drink is enough... More

Sat in the cafe bar to cool down and enjoy a cold drink. Place had an amazing dessert choices. Nice happy hour munches and awesome drinks.

You can't help but say "wow" when entering the Driskill. I prefer to have a drink rather than a meal or to stay overnight because the experience is in the lobby and grill/bar. It is definitely worth a stop.

As an Austin local, I adore this hotel! I have had the pleasure of staying here a few times and each time I absolutely loved everything about it. The rooms are beautiful, the beds are very comfortable, and the atmosphere is lovely. And I absolutely love the 1886 cafe for breakfast or brunch.

Attended a wedding rehearsal dinner and have bee to several association meetings here over the years. One of the oldest hotels in Austin but also one of the best. It was built 2 years before the state capitol and continues to be one of the best hospitality venues in the state.

We stopped into The Driskill for a drink before dinner. I was immediately impressed by how grand the lobby was. We headed to the bar and settled into a couch directly in front of the small stage where local solo acts performed. We enjoyed our drink and the service was wonderful until the artist nearly begged the audience for tips.... More

We were going for a late breakfast and decided on ice cream. I had an amazing home made ice cream sandwich. My wife had a spectacular banana split. We returned for happy hour and enjoyed the flatbread and quesadillas. Great environment too!

In the center of all the restaurants and fun. It is beautiful and filled with history. We did not stay there, but next time in Austin, we will!

I first stayed here while in high school and have stayed many times since then. right on 6th street, which could be good or not depending on the purpose of your trip. service is tops.
