About Us

The Jewel is more than a bar—it’s a sanctuary of history, art, and culture. Housed in a beautifully restored historic building at 1102 S. Alamo St., our space reflects the charm and character of the King William Historic District. Originally built in the 1850s and expanded in the 1920s, the building retains its vintage allure with exposed limestone walls, original hardwood floors, and elegant chandeliers. Every corner of The Jewel is a celebration of San Antonio’s rich heritage.

At The Jewel, we pride ourselves on creating a welcoming atmosphere where guests feel like they’ve found their home away from home. Whether you’re here for a morning coffee, a midday brunch, or an evening cocktail, our thoughtfully designed spaces cater to your every mood. Cozy nooks, a grand piano playing soft tunes, and both indoor and outdoor seating ensure you’ll find the perfect spot to relax, connect, or celebrate. From our shaded front veranda to the charming back patio, our venue offers a variety of settings for every occasion.

We believe that great experiences come from more than just great drinks. That’s why The Jewel also serves as a hub for local culture and creativity. Our walls showcase the work of talented local artists, and our calendar is filled with events like live music performances, art nights, and trivia gatherings. We aim to bring people together through shared experiences, offering an inspiring environment where creativity and camaraderie flourish.

Whether you’re dropping in for an espresso martini, attending one of our curated events, or hosting a private gathering, The Jewel provides the perfect blend of elegance and comfort. Our team is dedicated to delivering exceptional service and making every visit unforgettable. We invite you to explore all that The Jewel has to offer and discover why our guests describe us as “a magical place” and “the hidden gem of San Antonio.” Let us be a part of your story, as you become a part of ours.
