Be Kind & Rewind

This is a novel place with loads of fun throw backs to meander about and look at! I loved the 80s, 90s, and 00s music videos playing and the free arcade games. So fun and nostalgic!We went during a very slow time. We're in our late 30s and late 40s so we don't start our nights at 10. We usually end them then. Haha! So the bartender was quick, neither super friendly or rude. We didn't eat so I can't say anything about that (if they even have food, which I'm doubtful about), but we had two frozen margaritas. They were out of a machine. They were meh. This is definitely more of a club spot so not totally our style, but we really enjoyed checking out the nostalgic decor, playing a few games, and looking at the fun Christmas decor. I'm happy we visited, as I've been curious about this place, but I think I got my fill in the one visit.

I really wanted to have fun here but...This place really tried hard to be a different bar experience. There's pinball machines, retro displays, a ton of places to take some fun photos, and a bunch more. I understand they wanted a retro vibe and fun atmosphere, and I typically LOVE places like that, but this bar really just... missed. Instead of creating the cool aesthetic they were clearly going for, it made the place feel old. To be honest, it was lame.And then there's the alcohol. Never in my life have I had such a watered down drink. It was downright insulting to watch the bartender fill my 'drink' literally 75% of the way with water before adding any form of booze. I paid $15 for a whiskey sour to essentially get a water bottle sour? No thanks. I'd wanted to try some of the fun looking Halloween themed drinks, but after that I stopped at the one.If it wasn't for the group I went with, I wouldn't have stayed the thirty minutes I ended up staying before I bailed. 'Disappointed' doesn't begin to describe my feelings for this place. Biggest waste of my time this year. Unless you are going out of your way to find an 'older' bar with a slower vibe, find a better bar. You deserve better.

I have seen this place all over social media and we had a girls night and decided to come check out this place. Love the theme of it and they're currently all decked out for Halloween so it's that much cuter.This place is bigger than what it looks like, highly recommend you walk around the whole place (past the big dance floor) and check out the other rooms :)Bartender was great and got us drinks super fast.

One of the coolest bars I ever went to! I decided to pull on a weekday during happy hour to avoid the long lines and huge crowds. I was able to fully experience the bar and take my photos in peace. They perfectly encapsulate the 80's , 90's and early 2000's aesthetic giving you nostalgia overload. They had music from various eras playing which takes you down memory lane. The ambiance was amazing and very nostalgic. I liked the different sections throughout the place. This place is a must if you're ever in San Antonio!

This was my first time visiting and it was so much fun. The music vibing, it was crowded but every, but everyone was dancing and having such a great time. Will definitely be going back again.

Let's take it back. Wayyyy back!!! We're talking about that 70s, 80s, & 90s kinda vibe here. I imagine if I was old enough to hit the clubs back then, this would have been my experience. All the old school jams and decor, makes this place one to remember. For all the young people reading this post, "No cap..it's cool asf!" For the oldies, "It's super rad and far out!". Seriously though, it's a whole vibe. I'm not a huge fan of their drinks, although they aren't bad either. In my opinion, they are a tad bit basic. With that said, the bartending service is on point. Depending on the night, they can get pretty packed, but it doesn't interfere with how quickly they get your food & drinks out. Saving the best for last; decor! One word: WOW!!! I refuse to believe anyone comes here and doesn't pull their phone out to take pictures. Fellas..be prepared to be annoyed at your girl. She's definitely going to want you to take bookoo pics of her. Just letting you know in advance.If ever you're downtown, swing by and check em out!

I loved the way the security guards checked us out. Helps me know that we can party in a safe environment. The drinks are delish. The environment is crazy cool! They got games to play from the 80s they got different rooms to jump to, lots of cool bright neon colors . You can tell everyone is having fun with each other here. What an awesome night!

Fun bar with nice atmosphere. Good drinks and it was nice seeing the music videos playing on the TVs. A couple of the arcade games didn't work but the ones that did were a blast. Would go again

kicked us out cause someone puked on our friend but blamed her L establishment and they said they "found it on video" but was wrong

Went in and asked for specials and kept ordering those specials. I felt like the bartenders were judging us for only ordering the specials as if we couldn't afford anything else. Aside from that, a friend was accused of having a vape and he doesn't do any of that. They brought him outside and refused to search him and then accused him of being too intoxicated (as if everyone else in the bar wasn't intoxicated as well). Do NOT recommend this establishment at all as it felt very hostile and targeted. There are better places around the Riverwalk than this place.
