Re: Going down to San Antone
I wish I could remember the name of the Irish-feeling piano pub that's on the Riverwalk where the pianist sings off the cuff and insulting tunes to the patrons. Damn good fun.
Re: Going down to San Antone
Yes the riverwalk is fun and if you are looking for a sports bar champions is great. The tower of the americas is also good (the resturant is amazing but it costs an arm and a leg). Historacly theres the alamo the mission trial and the witte muesum. the best burger joint would be longhorn cafe 5 minutes from my house:2thumbsup: then the Tex-Mex place is tomitoillios (SP). If you want real good mexican food go down to a street called zazamora keep following and find what looks like a house. It will be called mamacitias and it will be good
Prole is it: Dirty Nelly's Irish Pub thats the only one coming to miy mind
Re: Going down to San Antone
SFTS and I are both from San Antonio and we'll both tell you, it's fantasitc. The river walk is great for the night, but you can find many other things to do downtown. If you wanted you could get either me or SFTS phone and we'll help you out. PM me if you want it...
Hope you have fun! I go to Alamo Heights High School and SFTS to Reagan High School, so if you hear those names you'll know it's us two...
:2thumbsup:
Re: Going down to San Antone
Cool, thanks all. I'm staying in the inner, inner loop and I've seen several places fairly close by that are of particular interest. Hmm, dirty Nelle, I just like the name. Plus free internet at the hotel so citysearch here I come!

Re: Going down to San Antone
Dirty Nelly's! Thanks, SFTS. That's exactly it. The whole area is a bit touristy, but what the hell, it's not like you aren't going to be a tourist there. Have fun!
Re: Going down to San Antone
Remember to take off your hat as you visit the Alamo.
They really do ask you to do so at the door. Didn't mind myself, since one of my clansmen died defending it.
Re: Going down to San Antone
What I really need though is a good place to buy a hat. Even if I can't wear it there. If you go to Texas you HAVE TO buy a cowboy hat!
