This is a great bar. Went twice. Ryan was the mixologist and I asked him to make me all sorts of obscure drinks with obscure ingredients. No problem. I love the ambience. Best grilled cheese sandwich I ever had. Definitely going back. They recommend reservations but the two times I went I didn't have a rezzy. First time had to wait 5 min. Second time they seated me immediately.

Upscale cocktails with a cool ambiance! If you like mixed drinks this is the place to go. They have a great mix of traditional cocktails and their own creations. It’s also very educational as the drinks are arranged by era from prohibition to today and ranked by boozy-ness! Lawerence was very friendly and patiently answered all of questions. Try the drink he created it - was sooooo good (it’s not listed on the website and I can’t remember the name)

A top-tier cocktail experience! The Roosevelt Room offers a classy yet comfortable atmosphere with expertly crafted drinks. 🍸 One of the best espresso martinis in town! 🍴 Great happy hour snacks—I haven’t made it for dinner yet, but I definitely will. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. A must-visit for cocktail lovers!

Excellent little tucked away spot. Very inconspicuous from the outside, but once inside the cocktail bar, it is very impressive! Extensive cocktail selection that is handcrafted by highly trained bartenders. We did not experience the food, but the menu looked outstanding. Highly recommended for a quick drink, group gathering, or intimate dinner.

After being out shopping on a very hot day, we walked past this place and decided to call in for a refreshing drink. It is a very cool bar with a very large selection of cocktails, all of which are responsibly priced for Austin. Our bartender Tomàs made the visit definitely worth it. He is very knowledgeable and recommended some really good cocktails but also made the time to have a chat with us and explain a bit about the bar. We are only in Austin for 4 nights but will definitely call back to this place before we go.

First time visiting. It was a busy night, but the nice folks at the front of the house found us a spot at the bar, which was perfect as we were able to chat with CJ the entire time we visited. My wife and I had the most enjoyable time visiting with CJ and learning about the drinks. He was hospitable, engaging, and exceedingly gracious. We swapped stories about Wisconsin and our favorite drinks/cocktail lounges in Milwaukee. Great time! We will be back - can’t wait!

Had an amazing experience at this cocktail bar and can easily see why it's considered one of the top spots in the city. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt refined yet comfortable, making it the perfect place to enjoy a great drink and good conversation. The cocktail menu is impressive, offering everything from timeless classics to creative house specialties. Every drink was beautifully balanced, thoughtfully prepared, and showcased a high level of skill and attention to detail.

This is my type of bar, and the craft of bartending is what sets this one apart from others and making drinks from all eras is awesome. Had the black pearl cocktail where they smoke it in a box and at the end I just sat in peace with some smoky peated scotch drunk neat enjoying the atmosphere.

Roosevelt Room has a vibe you can feel the second you walk in. Moody, dark, exactly what you want from a cocktail bar. We went specifically because they have N/A options — always a win. Decent selection, though I’d love to see it expanded. The Castaway was great. I also tried the sherry cobbler (not n/a) lighter flavor than I expected but I enjoyed it. Would go back.

The Roosevelt Room is hands down the best cocktail bar in Austin. If you’re looking for expertly crafted drinks, an incredible atmosphere, and true cocktail artistry, this is the place to go. A special shoutout to Laurence, who is one of the most talented bartenders and mixologists I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. His knowledge of spirits, classic cocktails, and modern techniques is exceptional, and his passion for the craft shines through in every drink he makes. Whether you’re a cocktail enthusiast or simply looking for a great drink, Laurence will guide you to something you’ll love. The cocktails are consistently outstanding, the service is top-notch, and the atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between sophisticated and welcoming. I highly recommend The Roosevelt Room to anyone looking for the best craft cocktails in Austin.
