Description:
DOWNTOWN. With City Hall and Bexar County Courthouse not far away, Cadillac might be the most law-abiding watering hole in the Lone Star State. But it's not just prosecutors and paralegals who belly up to the lengthy hardwood bar – a younger crowd takes over on weekends to catch live music and enjoy spring and summer evenings on the patio. Steaks, chicken, sandwiches, and salads dominate the lunch-only menu, along with Tex-Mex options. |

Description:
MONTE VISTA. Lounge music, jam bands, singer/songwriters, blues – there's no shortage of variety in Casbeers' near-daily musical performances. The longstanding Tex-Mex eatery is as famous for its live music line-up as for its food. Many sessions are open-mic; aspiring stars need only sign up a few days in advance to wow enchilada-eating crowds. Even on a rare quiet night, weekly events like bingo bring folks together. Gospel is up for grabs, too, but night-owls beware – it's a Sunday brunch affair. Kick back with some nachos and enjoy the show! |

Description:
RIVER WALK. Shrinking violets beware: With two dueling piano players, a raucous atmosphere, and audience participation near 100%, Howl at the Moon is a great place to let loose. Musicians keep things boisterous with witty banter, good-natured ribbing, and familiar tunes that all seem to be crowd favorites. Get your courage up with tube or jello shots or an old-fashioned mixed bucket of beers. A mainstay of younger crowds, the bar also pulls in business travelers on a quest for a good time. |
