I wanted to do this post right before the weekend; in case, you were looking for a new place to try out.
Let me start out by saying: I have this weird hatred of “cool” places that are located in malls. In my opinion, malls are made for shopping, and the only time you should be at a mall is when the stores are open. They are not made for living or hanging out.
However, last weekend, I was meeting up with a friend, and we needed a place that was easy for both of us to get to. We decided to hit up Somersault Innovative Cocktails at The Domain.
Address:
11601 Domain Dr
Austin, TX 78758
I have to say I am glad that we ended up going there because overall I was impressed. I liked Somersault because 1) there are no loud TVs with annoying sports on 2) they don’t serve food, so you aren’t tempted to eat 3) there are enough places to sit, which means you can actually have a conversation with someone.
The only downside? The drink are a bit pricey for Austin. At $14/cocktail, I had flashbacks of many very expensive nights in NYC. However, if you are at Somersault, you are probably not going to be double fisting, so having just one or two drinks to sip on is acceptable.
I got the PearFlower, and it was amazingggg.
My friend that I was with got the Pacifica, and they light the cup on fire. You are definitely paying for the show, but it is kinda fun!
How could you hate a place that has such a variety of jello shots?
