Best after work spots tend to be Moxie’s in the Crescent, Bowen House in Uptown, and Happiest Hour in Victory Park. If you’re looking to stay downtown Jaxon Beer Garden is fun and casual when it’s nice out.

For more “post-happy hour social drinks” I’d look to Skellig in Lower Greenville and Lounge 31 or Monkey Bar in Highland Park Village. Late night clubbing tends to be more Deep Ellum - lots of options depending on the night.

Feel free to PM me if you want any more suggestions

 

As others mentioned, Moxie's and Happiest Hour are great spots for Uptown/Victory Park. Quarter Bar can be fun sometimes. The Skellig, HG SPLY, and Truckyard are all great for the Greenville & Knox/Henderson area. I'd throw in High Fives and Stan's Blue Note too for more lowkey spots. Chelsea Corner used to be cool, but covid kinda interrupted that.

77 Degrees is alright if you like 20 year olds.

Javier's cigar bar for classy, Honor Bar if you want milfs. Midnight Rambler is also a nicer spot but not sure when that will reopen. As already mentioned Skellig is good, and probably has the best talent right now. Drakes on Sunday with Jazz is a good classy vibe too. Go down Lovers from Drakes to Hudson House and they have a great happy hour. Get a spot at the bar and you'll have no issue meeting some heavy hitters from Park Cities. Harwood Arms that just opened is a great spot too.
