Our Take

The Eleanor — Downtown

The Eleanor sits on East 4th Street with a wraparound patio and a pair of small inside rooms — easily Austin's most charming neighbourhood cocktail bar with a good Saturday-afternoon programme.

Cocktails lean classic with a Texas-ingredient slant — pecan-fat-washed bourbon, mesquite-smoked old fashioned, a celebrated grapefruit gimlet. Kitchen is small but does a strong charcuterie board.

Walk-in friendly Wed-Thu. Saturday afternoon books up via Resy.

What to Order

Pecan Old Fashioned

Pecan-fat-washed bourbon, demerara, aromatic bitters. The Eleanor's Texas signature.

Wraparound Patio

Tree-shaded outdoor seating. The Saturday afternoon move.

Charcuterie Board

Texas cured meats, local cheese. The kitchen highlight.

Grapefruit Gimlet

Gin, fresh ruby grapefruit, lime cordial. Their bright signature.
