Double Standard

One of the best Lemon Drop Martinis I've had! The Signature DS Burger with bacon on top was INCREDIBLE! Easily one of the best burgers I've EVER had in my life. Brisket, bacon and beef blended in the patty with this magical combination of brioche bun, dijonnaise, and probably some type of enchantment in there somewhere. I'll be measuring other burgers against that one from now on! Atmosphere is somewhat moody yet inviting in its own way. Great date night location!

I happened upon this great cocktail bar on a recent trip to San Antonio. The mixologists and bartenders at Double Standard are world-class. They are true artists. The food is just as good. I love the scotch egg. The burgers were tasty and expertly prepared.

We visited Double Standard after a recommendation from a local tour employee and we loved it! Great happy hour including $1.50 oysters. We ordered about 3 dozen and they were delicious. Great drink specials and the cocktails were very good. Definitely recommend.

This place has a great atmosphere for relaxing in a sophisticated setting. The food is amazing! The White bean dip is a must have. I also usually get a dozen oysters. Their presentation and setup is great. The mixed cocktails are top tier, but you can’t go wrong with a schooner of beer or classic double. They don’t always have the game on, but I got lucky and caught a couple Spurs games here. It felt like a secret I shouldn’t have been in on. Also worth noting, you can get any drink to-go!

Yaaaaaasssss to a place to visit. We were visiting San Antonio and stepped out of our friend's hotel desiring to eat. Their slogan "doubles are the standard" was enough for me. 😆. Great atmosphere.... but you do have to get up to order at the bar. We sat at the bar. The first bartender Roland didn't give bad service but his energy DEFINITELY DID NOT match Alex's, Randy's, Bryan's, and the other men. The food portions are decent. EXCELLENT happy hour specials. The food didn't disappoint (we just had to "doctor" the roast beef po boy). We will be back before we leave!!! --------- Hubby and I ate here almost every day of our last trip, so this was our first stop on this year's return. Unfortunately the food did not initially "hit" like before. Hubby's steak was extremely tough and my fries were cold... however the staff was very accommodating. He ordered something else and it was like the "good old days" 🙌🏿. I got extremely turned off when our main server kept rubbing his hair prior to fixing my drink and then later touched his nostrils and then touched ice and fruit 🤢. The menu changed and some of my favorites were not on the Dec 2025 menu. 😭 [Some plusses- Brandon came in as we were wrapping up with that excellent energy and customer service and made a very good green tea and shouts out to Angel who kept checking in on us]

Sarah with Offline - We went to Double Standard for date night. Parking downtown is always a pain and can be expensive but if you’re patient you might be able to find a spot on the street- we did! The place was pretty busy when we arrived but we found two seats at the bar with no problems. Our bartender was so fast and gave us excellent food and drink recommendations. Everything was delicious! Highly recommend the burgers (YUM)!

Awesome spot with great food and even better drinks! Bryan was a great bartender and took care of us the whole night. Let us know the specials and kept the coming! Music was great too!

Drove by this place on the way to our hotel. We made the short walk back to this establishment after getting unpacked and settled in. Was definitely something different for me since I usually do sport bars. But the lay back atmosphere and the drinks made me realize I'd been missing out. The water bottle with shot glasses to self serve your water was something new to me definitely a good touch. We didn't do a plate but appetizers instead. The oysters were good and the Boudin balls were just as good . Me and my wife really enjoyed this place and the budget friendly happy hour definitely helps. We'll be coming back to San Antonio plenty with my son attending UTSA I do believe we found another must stop everytime we come back. Highly recommend stopping here

Thoroughly enjoyed the tequila mockingbird cocktail! & the shrimp cocktail 😋 the bartender Brandon was amazing and even put tajin on the rim which surprisingly not everyone will do at restaurants and bars. It’s my favorite! My hubby had the French dip sandwich and it was perfect as well. Thanks!

Live in Houston, in for the weekend. Found this place by asking someone for a reco. Good eats ✅ Good beer, cocktail and mocktail menu ✅ Atmosphere ✅ Cool. Humble. Authentic. Love the playlist. Rock, Americana beach vibe. Beautiful intentional thought and detail throughout the decor, menus, including the drink and mocktail menu. GET the Dreaming of you nod to Selena mocktail. It’s delicious coconut and SO FUN to drink! Also tried the pierogies, all American burger, and Fish & Chips (All a GO).
