Brad HagerJanuary 7, 2017BEST cocktails in Austin. They use fresh ingredients to make unique and delicious drinks you can't find anywhere else. Just tell them what you want or the flavor you're looking for, they'll make it.- Sabine AlamJanuary 19, 2013Unleash your inner flapper and come out to Peche to sample fantastic cocktails served up by the best mixologists west of the Mississippi. Favorites include the Sazerac and the Texas Mule.
Werner SeibertApril 21, 2018The Best Pisco Sour in town!!! They have many awesome drinks, but their Pisco Sour is like the ones I had in Santiago (Chile).
Bianca IslamJune 3, 2017Nice soothing environment. 100+ cocktails, lots of liquor. Exquisite cuisine. Lots of unique items on the menu, escargot and rabbit liver mousse
Austin Fine PropertiesApril 25, 2013A comprehensive absinthe list and a drink menu littered with cocktails from the show, Peche is the mixology bar. Our favorite is the NY Sour with Makers Mark, lemon, simple, and a red wine float.
Chris PellegrinoApril 4, 2013A comprehensive absinthe list and a drink menu littered with cocktails from the show, Peche is the mixology bar. Our favorite is the NY Sour with Makers Mark, lemon, simple, and a red wine float.
DavidDecember 28, 2014A big restaurant with a speakeasy vibe. Have the bartenders make you a drink, I got the lions tail, which was perfect.
Kerri FMMarch 16, 2013Where do I start..Butter Lettuce Salad with Avacado comes w a slice of the most amazing cheese. Meatball dish was slightly spicy & stuffed with cheese. Delicious. Tried to come back before I left.
Social News NetworkDecember 4, 2013The atmosphere of this place is perfect. The prohibition-style attire of the bartenders is spot on with the 1920s atmosphere of the bar. Try the French 77 - it's absolutely perfect.
ChristinaDecember 21, 2016Can't go wrong with their Sunday all day happy hour! Cocktails are great and we enjoyed our food choices!
Rachel HoovlerJuly 23, 2013The food is RIDICULOUSLY good. The trout with hatch Chile butter and chocolate torte with salted caramel mousse were my favorites. The Silver Monk cocktail is also amazing. Lovely atmosphere!
Pratheeksha KSSeptember 29, 2018An amazing selection of sipping absinthe and absinthe cocktails. Close to the downtown craziness yet secluded enough to get a break from it.
Social News NetworkJune 28, 2012If you’re a gin drinker, I strongly recommend the Bees Knees (gin, local honey and lemon). Even though Hendrick’s is my new favorite, the Cucumber Gimlet was a little too sweet for my liking.
One of my favorite restaurants in Austin. The duck confit is delightful, but it's hard to go wrong with such a wonderful menu.
Katie BrownDecember 24, 2018Extensive drink menu with lots of great choices, but also a good opportunity to talk to the bartenders about what you like to see what they suggest.
Lalia WilliamsJune 18, 2015Looks unassuming from the outside, but on the inside it's the perfect little spot to enjoy a drink. The adult milkshakes are fun and delicious. Read more
Patty RathbunSeptember 20, 2014Creative cocktail menu, ask your server for recommendations. I love the off the menu Periwinkle cocktail, not too sweet and incredibly refreshing.
Austin 360March 29, 2012Austin's original absinthe house has an extensive menu filled with modern and classic cocktails categorized by base spirit. Of course, there's no better place to have traditionally prepared absinthe.
Marisa WongApril 11, 2017Incredible cocktails with even more incredible food! Great presentation of the drinks too.
Norman EllisMarch 21, 2018Quite possibly the best meal I had on this trip to Austin! The escargot is outstanding. Their duck confit is the best I’ve ever tasted.
Amber NagleMarch 21, 2015The Mac and cheese and mushroom fritters are great. Order the mustache gun for your drink. Not on the menu, but it is AWESOME.
StefanieMarch 20, 2016Our group loved the mushroom app, the Mac and cheese and the short ribs. Great cocktails too!
Short rib with duck fat mash, French onion soup..ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING. All day HH Sun & Mon: $5 cocktails and 1/2 off apps with an *
Mindy NghiemJune 27, 2015Try the Half-Pound Burger with House Cured Bacon, Gruyere, and Whole Grain Mustard Aioli on a Potato Bun - (via @Foodspotting)
_March 4, 2016Love the extremely well made cocktails and delicious food in a mellow, but fun atmosphere!
Tiffany LeungJune 16, 2013Vintage cocktail? YES! This is the only place in Austin that serve legal absinthe (without wormwood). The bar tenders are knowledgable and they do take mixology to the next level.
Tammy GordonMarch 13, 2012Intimate artisan cocktail bar with great old school recipes (my fave was Spicy Bees Knees)... and absinthe. The farm salad with egg and pork belly were great.
Anybody who thinks Peche is overpriced wouldn't know good food or amazing cocktails if they came up and bit them in the face! Peche has ruined us for all other bars, the cocktails are amazing!!
Chloe CondonAugust 7, 2017Great music, great bartenders. Sit at the bar on a Sunday night with a book. Ask for a spicy bees knees.
Marissa WiseAugust 18, 2014Wow! Drinks are amazing yes the best for sure, but it must be said that the Food here is some of the best in austin also!
Arlette AcostaDecember 23, 2014Bartenders really know their stuff and are happy to share their knowledge. Ask around if you're not sure what to order.
AmateurConciergeJanuary 20, 2020Solid cocktails. Extensive whiskey selection. Place is slammed for happy hour on a Friday
Jason LockeJuly 31, 2014Trey is an amazing bartender! Extremely knowledgable and good at his craft!! Food is also very good even for Austin
Sue YangAugust 7, 2014Austin's first absinthe bar. The place to be for awesome scotch/whiskey and drinks. Love their interior and ambience!
Joey NowakJuly 31, 2018Order a couple types of absinthe and have them walk you through it. They know their stuff.
Lauren Helfer PattonJuly 30, 2014I asked for a wine menu, and they had to search for one. This is a true cocktail bar. I scrapped the wine and went for a dark and stormy.
Rebecca KuoDecember 23, 2011The French 75 is amazing and so is the salted cod potatoes. Sat at the bar with Mark as our bartender and he was interesting and informative!- Kathryn YuMarch 23, 2011Excellent moules in lemon broth with Tito's Vodka. Try also the charcuterie board. They also do a good riff on the Last Word using rye, called the Final Say.
Adam GambrelSeptember 18, 2016Great selection of unique cocktails. Kind of expensive but a great treat. The Silver Monk is delicious.
The Wall Street JournalMarch 1, 2013Reader tip: For some of the best cocktails in town, go to Peche on 4th Street. They make their own bitters as a sign of their devotion. Read more- Mindy NghiemJune 27, 2015Try the Braised Short Ribs with Duck Fat Mashed Potatoes, Wild Mushrooms, and Jus - (via @Foodspotting)
- Jennifer RuizJuly 17, 2018Cool bar with a ton of cocktail options, but you definitely need to try something with Absinthe
Teresa HarrisonNovember 15, 2011Most knowledgable bartenders and creative drinks, but the food is outstanding, too. If you order mussels, get extra bread for the broth. Very tasty.
Steve BasileOctober 18, 2011A cocktail bar for people who don't think they like cocktails. Don't bother asking for anything with Vodka. Branch out, let an expert mixologist make you a COCKTAIL & snack on some tasty small plates.
Ian SecviarAugust 10, 2018Ask for the Up in Smoke if you like mezcal. It’s off menu, but oh so good.
Elizabeth BursteinMarch 13, 2017Amazing bar to stumble into during sxsw. Lots of original absinthe cocktails
Ask for a mezcal sazerac and enjoy. Incredible service, especially Rene, Rico, and Caer.
