Zombies Bar — Restaurant in San Antonio

Updated Female Bar Owner is EXTREMELY unprofessional and disrespectful to patrons. I've never heard so much toxic gossip as I did in that 5 minutes waiting to order a drink. It's completely disgusting to hear a bar OWNER, not just a bartender, belittling her own patrons to others. Aside from that the karaoke is far too loud but alright, small bar without much room, so nowhere to dance and only one pool table which is usually taken all night. Atmosphere is very full of drama, fights, parking lot altercations, no respect for safety, drugs are pretty common and sold by multiple younger patrons. Patron average age is all mid to young 20's so a very high school goth group feel.

All in all if you're into a small, loud, dramatic, very loner group type, emo/horror theme vibe with a bar owner who keeps tabs on you and treats patrons with anger and annoyance at the turn of the hours than this is the place to go. 0 stars isn't an option but this is definitely a bar I wouldn't recommend. Many other clean, safe, professional bars around San Antonio with similar themes and better sound systems/owners/bartenders and a dance floor to boot!

*Update, as you can clearly see by the response to an honest review that the owner has 0 respect and is not patron friendly, as bad reviews will happen and should be handled professionally. It seems like every bad review you receive on Google pertains to the female bar owner so general consensus would say it's a problem. As you can read in most honest reviews that are negative that the reviewer is no longer allowed to go. This bar has caused its own decline as it's not even a hotspot...

Ownership is very disrespectful to bands. If you are a musician be careful with this place. My band traveled an 1h30mins to play at this bar. When i arrived i was told by my bandmates that we were kicked off the bill do to an empty bottle that my singer brought in and was going to throw away. As far as i know it was non alcoholic. He had been sick with ammonia for 2-3 weeks and was just starting to feel better. Ownership kicked him out of the bar. We know and understand that you can't bring in outside beverages and had no intention to. Bandmates tried to talk to the owner but she seemed rather smiley and snarky about throwing us off the bill...Even told us we need to fire the singer from what i was told. We tried many different approaches to make the show happen and offered to play the show without the singer because he was the one that was rejected from the bar but they would not let us. All of us in the band are kind respectful people. The band was dumbfounded by the situation and could not believe we wasted our time, efforts, and money. Im not a person that rights reviews but for the situation to get that sideways over an empty bottle that was headed for the trash is ridiculous. So I'm writing this for future musicians looking to play here. My fellow musicians becareful because Zombies does not care about your band.

I never had a conversation with any of yall. Exactly aggressive behavior over an empty bottle. Dont give that new talent B.S. yall never once contacted us or promoted the show in the weeks...

I love this bar. I used to go often, and then I moved an hour away. Last night I came to town for my graduation celebration with all of my old friends and I immediately knew where I wanted to go!

I LOVE the drinks here. They have the biggest cocktail menu I’ve seen in SATX, from Harry Potter themed shots, spiked hot chocolates, horror and gore themed drinks like their Blood Bags and Specimen Cups (both delicious, and you get to take the cup home), and even a delicious painkiller. I also LOVE that they have 151!! I am a longtime service industry worker and a cocktail snob and I always LOVE my drinks here.

I usually get some of their snacks while I’m there, and they even have games and karaoke which i always love. Everything is so reasonably priced, which leaves more money for me to tip the wonderful staff. Every time I’ve been here their staff has been friendly, fast, and fun. I had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners, Heather, and she was such a delight and so accommodating and celebratory of my special day! I also found out they also just opened a smoke shop right next door and I can’t wait to check it out. And lastly, I couldn’t not mention that the zombie themed decor, down to zombie movies on the tv, is soooo badass and fun to look at. 10/10 environment. And there’s always parking!

I wish they had an Austin location so I could go more often! San Antonio is so lucky to...
