Academia - Austin

Amazing staff, felt completely at home. Honestly, almost one side that the cocktails are great because we had such a good time that the drinks were background music. A little biased as the turf is, but it's just one of my favorite bars. Plus best secret menu!

Have loved this spot since it opened for cocktails and a nice ambience. As we've always had a pleasant experience, we decided to host a 30th birthday party here for 35+ people during prime holiday party season. I can't say enough great things! The communication from weeks in advance was on point. The staff and manager rolled out the red carpet for us...almost literally. Great space. Great team. Thanks for a fantastic party!! We'll absolutely be back.

A really great place! The owner Chris is so hospitable! He chatted with us and gave us a whole list of other places a foody spots to check out! The bartenders were really good and wanted everyone to have a good time! Very Harry Potter vibe :

A nice place if you are pursuing additional knowledge on cocktails. There is also a wine range of spirits. The longer we sit here, the smarter we seem to get.

Loading delicious menu items including Plancha-Crisped Blue Crab Cake with remoulade blanc, Fennel Slav, Herbs, House made aioli. These were also heavily filled with fresh crabs. Also love the Devil Eggs with ulcered Texas Hill Country olive oil and smoked peppers. I also have the steak tartare with 44 farms beef, green goddess dressing, salted egg yolk, pickled mustard seeds on rye bread. My favourite drink is waiting for Chinola with Santa Teresa Claro Rum, Passion Fruit, Lemon, Becherovka, Lazy Day camp and pomegranate! Academia really increases the level with bar food and cocktails.
