Smoke Skybar in San Antonio Blossoms, Opening Nightclub and Mezzanine Areas

In San Antonio’s dynamic cityscape, the downtown nightspot and barbecue dining hub, Smoke Skybar, is enhancing its offerings with the opening of a new nightclub and skyline mezzanine areas. These latest additions are part of a ongoing project aimed to magnify the visitor experience, and are scheduled to be operational from this Thursday onwards.

A City’s Landmark Amplifier

The Smoke Skybar, located at 501 E. Crockett Street, is not a newcomer in town. Since its grand opening, it has been a focal point of San Antonio’s nightlife and dining scene. This downtown establishment has been thriving for years, and its expansion entrepreneurial ventures signify its plans to further dominate the hospitality sector.

The owner of Smoke Skybar, Adrian Martinez, revealed the project plan to MySA in an email, stating, “My plan [is] to activate the entire venue, except the rooftop, starting Thursday, May 23. Kind of surreal, three years in the making and it’s actually going to happen.” The rooftop, still in the final stages of renovation, has reportedly passed fire inspections and has been fitted with a new transformer, promising a stellar attraction when completed.

Footprints of Smoke Skybar

Smoke Skybar’s journey began as an anchor of St. Paul Square back in 2016, where it remained a vital element until the onset of the pandemic in 2020. With the temporary shutdown due to COVID-19 restrictions, Martinez reopened Smoke in its current downtown location in November 2020. Since then, Smoke has branched out with several other locations, including Loop 1604 and Redland Road, La Villita, and even extended its reach to Corpus Christi.

Not Just An Expansion

In April, Smoke Skybar unveiled a new indoor dining area as part of its continuous enhancement project to offer an unparalleled food and dining experience for its patrons. Now, the introduction of the new nightclub and mezzanine sections adds another feather in Smoke Skybar’s cap. Martinez’s long-term vision in unveiling the entire venue promises an unmatched entertaining experience for San Antonio’s locals as well as visiting guests.

Adding to the excitement, Smoke’s culinary reputation holds its own, specializing in unique barbecue cuisine. From lovers of smoky, savory goodness to the night owls seeking an appealing ambiance and entertainment, Smoke Skybar continues to cater to diverse audience.
