I went to Cedar Door with a large group of friends for a birthday. I'd been to Cedar Door a few years ago and was impressed by the wonderful service. Our server Nichole? was an absolute joy and was very helpful (definitely try the Mexican martinis). The bar was a little busy and crowded, but the atmosphere is great- very down to earth and fun, not at all pretentious like some places. The food was ok, but there are a lot more pro's than con's. Highly recommended for it's charm and great crowd.!

Pros: service, atmosphere, parking and Mexican martini's

Cons: food menu could use more healthy items

Went to the Cedar Door with a group of co-workers and sat on the porch. Fun crowd, good service and excellent drinks. A peer raved about the "mexican martini." Check it out.

The Mexican Martini is the same great recipe as the other location. I've been out of Austin for several years and was so happy to find this place still alive and looking and feeling the same!! Austin has changed so much but the Door has remained the same great neighborhood bar it has been for decades.

Pros: staff, inexpensive, parking

The absolute best. Fresh squeezed lime and the best tequila. You can't beat them!

Pros: great crowd, no mix - all fresh

Strong drinks at cheap prices. Service is great but most of the time the place is too busy for excellent service. Try the Mexican Martini, the best in Austin. The deck is awesome too.

Pros: friendly, location, parking

First time in at the new location. All good if not better than prevous location. Same great drinks and laid back atmosphere. A must see if you're tired of the same old clubs.

Pros: parking, tradition

We had a great time at the Cedar Door before and after dinner at Roy's. The Mexican's are always great and the atmosphere is more sophisticated than the Warehouse distrcit. Maybe someone should tell the guys that the women to guy ratio is 5 to 1. That's probably why the hang out at the Door!

Pros: nice people, parking, Mexican Martini

The Cedar Door remains a cool place to hang regardless of time. So many new trendy places that come and go but this Austin favorite has staying power. It's a simple, laid back joint that has more charm than any new bar could possibly duplicate.

Pros: prices, staff, deck

First time out to the new location. The deck is HUGE and the drinks are still affordable. The beer garden is great if want to get away from the crowd in front.

Pros: parking, Mexicans
