Hey there, San Antonio! Get ready to kick up your heels because a brand new pop-up bar is shaking things up in downtown, and it’s all about the rodeo vibes! The Dusty Diamond pop-up bar has rolled into the High Praise rooftop bar, just in time for the exciting San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo. If you’re looking for a place to unwind while soaking in some of that *ranch magic*, this is where you want to be.
There’s nothing quite like enjoying a drink while gazing at the stunning skyline of downtown San Antonio. The Dusty Diamond terrace offers sweeping views that make for perfect Instagram moments. With a décor that captures the essence of the Old West, expect to see cowhide rugs, wagon wheels, and all the rustic charm that puts you right in the rodeo spirit.
One of the standout features that folks are raving about is the mechanical bull. This isn’t just any bull, though—it has red eyes and smoke effects that make it look super cool as it bucks. Safety is a priority, so there’s an inflatable crash pad ready to catch any courageous cowpokes who might take a tumble. Feeling adventurous? Give it a try! And don’t forget to practice your lassoing skills while you’re at it—there’s so much to do!
Now, let’s talk cocktails! The bar is serving up a delightful lineup of rodeo-themed drinks that are sure to tickle your taste buds. Pouring your new favorite cocktail into a boot-shaped mug, the “Truck on Fire” is a smooth mix of Pendleton Whiskey topped with whipped cream. For a sweeter option, try the “Girl in the Mirror,” featuring coconut rum, sparkling white wine, orange juice, and a fun cotton candy floater that will make you feel like a kid at the fair! Other creative concoctions are inspired by popular country songs, including “Boots Stop Working” and “If I Was a Cowboy.”
Don’t think they’ve forgotten about the food! Their Southern-inspired menu features mouthwatering bites like pulled-pork sliders with chicharron and jalapeños, truffle parmesan fries with cilantro-infused aioli, fried deviled eggs, chicken “lollipops,” and even a classy charcuterie board. Get ready to indulge as you combine food and fun in a fabulous atmosphere!
The Dusty Diamond is touted as the ultimate *Instagramable* experience, blending delightful rodeo elements with the vibrant nightlife of downtown San Antonio. With its unique setting and mouthwatering dishes, don’t forget to strike a pose, because this is a place to create memories and snap some great photos. You’re sure to be the envy of all your followers!
The pop-up is open Thursday through Sunday until March 2, 2025, so there’s plenty of time to head over with friends and family. Just make sure to grab a reservation to ensure you won’t miss out on all the fun! Plus, there’s even a Hat Bar where guests can have their hats branded and bandanas embroidered, giving your cowboy look that personal touch.
Want to take home a piece of San Antonio with you? The bar offers jewelry and handmade leather items crafted by local artisans. Every other Saturday, patrons can also sample Surtierra tequila and Stockman Wine in the hotel lobby, with proceeds from tequila sales going towards scholarships for local Texas students. So not only will you have an amazing time, but you’ll also help support a great cause!
With the Dusty Diamond pop-up marking the first-ever rodeo-themed concept for the High Praise rooftop bar, it looks like this could become a fun new tradition in San Antonio. So why not gather your friends, saddle up, and enjoy a good old-fashioned rodeo celebration right in the heart of downtown? Happy rodeo season, everyone!
