Friday, September 25, 2026, 12:00 AM - 3:00 AM · Bar Hacienda, Rainey Street, Austin
Bar Hacienda hosts a Texas Cocktail Week takeover with guest bartenders from Svanen (Oslo) and Press Club (Washington DC), two of the world's top-ranked bars. Daniel Pappa and Karel Varga of Svanen join Will Patton of Press Club for a one-night-only collaborative pop-up.
This polished Rainey Street cocktail bar brings a tropical-leaning drink program that’s far more thoughtful than the neighborhood usually demands. Cocktails like a mango-cognac Sazerac layered with banana whiskey and watermelon cordial showcase the approach: inventive, unexpected, and remarkably restrained. One of the few spots on Rainey genuinely worth navigating the crowd for.
