Sophisticated lounge serving refined craft cocktails and Iranian-inspired bites
"Most of Austin's speakeasies are Downtown or on the East Side, but Daisy Lounge brings the booming world of secret bars to South Austin. It's hard to find unless you know to look for the daisy painted on the facade of the converted lobby that connects District Kitchen + Cocktails and Keepers, two Circle C Ranch restaurants. Daisy basically looks like the cutest library in town, with cozy chairs and shelves of hardback books built into the walls. The tasty cocktail selection is divided into classics and inventive mixtures like the Oaxacan Soda, an herby mezcal drink with lime juice and chili salt." - nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs
"While most of Austin’s speakeasies are nestled Downtown or on the East Side, Daisy Lounge brings the allure of hidden bars to South Austin. Tucked away between District Kitchen + Cocktails and Keepers in Circle C Ranch, it’s easy to miss unless you know to look for the daisy painted on the facade of the converted lobby. Inside, Daisy feels like a cozy library, with built-in bookshelves and inviting armchairs in its multi-storied floral-designed space. The cocktail menu features a mix of timeless classics and creative concoctions, like the Gold Hued Rush with turmeric-infused bourbon. Reservations are strongly suggested." - Darcie Duttweiler
"Included in a run-down of South Austin places that helped make the author spend more time south of the river; mentioned alongside cafes, ramen, and new restaurants that broadened the neighborhood’s appeal." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Offers high-class cocktails in far south Austin, according to the reviewer." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Most of Austin's speakeasies are Downtown or on the East Side, but Daisy Lounge brings the booming world of secret bars to South Austin. It's hard to find unless you know to look for the daisy painted on the facade of the converted lobby that connects District Kitchen + Cocktails and Keepers, two Circle C Ranch restaurants. A green velvet curtain on the other side of the door establishes the color scheme running through this narrow two-story spot. Daisy basically looks like the cutest library in town, with cozy chairs and shelves of hardback books built into the walls. The cocktails are divided into classics and inventive mixtures like the Oaxacan Soda, which is an herby mezcal drink with lime juice and chili salt." - Matthew Jacobs
