San Antonio's best attempt at a Man's bar
The Annex is a small dive that you can run to if you just wanna get away from the craziness of The Strip. Not the most attractive bar or clientèle (even by dive bar standards), and it's far from the best of its "genre", but this is as butch as it'll get in San Antonio. All of the bartenders are nice guys and are very good at what they do. The drinks are as cheap as they are strong. Plus, they've started doing monthly Gear Nights, which have been fun so far. Also, as expected, it can be a cruisy atmosphere at times. If you can manage to find something attractive to fool around with, this will be the place to get a bit "warmed up" before heading home. This is a bar that knows what it is and intends to stay that way. If you like an older, more laid-back crowd, this is the place to be. But please, if you have a Fag Hag, leave her at The Strip...this isn't the place for her.
Love to go here
great bartenders, good drinks, small place but busy on the weekends. it is the bear, leather levi bar for the area. there is a mirror behind the urinal so you can check your neighbors equipment :)
The Bear Attraction in SA
I visited Labor Day weekend and it was my first time in San Antonio and this bar was just ehh ok. Very much a small dive bar but I do like that they incorporate a pool table in a clear area. The patio is tiny and smoked out so non-smokers stay inside. The drinks are great, strong and priced well. Also the jukebox helps add to more of a personable feel to the place. No all night dance mixes here! Its a nice break from the other places but it's not a must see by any means.
nice escape from club scene
Small and dimly lit. On the corner of San Pedro, a few blocks from the gay strip. They have cheap drinks and they play good music from the jukebox. I go here when I just want a drink or two and to escape the club scene. It's a good atmosphere to chill with one or more friends. Everyone is nice and the bartenders and staff are awesome. I have never had a problem here.
Annex is Annex
