DrinkWell

Cocktail BarAustin$$

DrinkWell is one of the best cocktail bar restaurants in Austin for date night, especially if you want a strong option in Austin.

DrinkWell has been doing something genuinely specific: running a serious cocktail program out of a 58-seat North Loop spot — 38 indoors, 20 on the open-air patio — where the kitchen actually earns its square footage.
