Bond’s 007 Rock Bar — Restaurant in San Antonio

I will give it a fair review as I've been here a few times. Most of the time I come here for the music, or you can find me playing pool with my guy friends every month or so. I stay away from the bar.

On two seperate occasions I've been here and wanted to spend a fair amount of money. I've spoken to the owner about her bartenders but of course, I'm not the owner myself. And she's especially friendly. Be prepared to have a disagreement with your bartender. If in fact they want to serve you.

I've tried to order drinks twice, and instead I prefer to send a friend to the bar. There is a short and heavier bartending woman that has twice created an unpleasant experience. One night I was here and had a group of friends in from Austin, I was charged for an extra round of drinks we never received. On another night, I ordered shots and they were delivered minutes later... When me and my friends asked where the shots were, the bartender pointed to several glasses two barstools over. She then said,"I told you they were right there honey." I asked,"are you sure you didn't drop those off just now and maybe I didn't turn around for you to say anything?" She said,"no I looked right at you and said these are your drinks."

I looked at the owner and said this doesn't sound right... I turned around and said just close my tab. She responded,"well I need to know who you are to do that. What's the name on the tab?" At that point all hell broke loose. I told her,"after two drinks and ordering one round of shots, you think I'm lost here? You don't drop an entire bar worth of shots behind someone you don't even know which tab you're charging! Now give me my id and my card back. "

When she handed it to me, the owner apologized to me, and would you look at that... She handed me an Express Visa with a picture of another man on it with my Driver's License. Literally one of those cards that serves as ID... How about that?

After the owner saw what happened. She told the bartender to void my charge. I came home, charged....

I just found out about the upcoming closing of Bond’s Rock Bar. I wanted to share my experience. I’m from AZ and my fiancé is from NM. We traveled to SATX for a metal festival in the summer this year and we seen Bond’s was hosting a pre-party for the festival. Being unfamiliar with the area we still took the chance to check out the scene. We freaking loved it man. It was nice to actually be in a place that plays our type of music. Everyone was so nice as well. Felt as if we belonged even though we’re outsiders. Our bartender was the best. I wish I got her name but I hope her and all the other staff find a good place to be after the closure. Definitely hope someway somehow there can be a revival of Bond’s because best believe we will come back in the future if...
