Specialties

Wherever you’re from, Nomad Bar is a place for all those weary travellers out there to come in and take a load off. From our signature Nomad bloody mary to our Sunday brunch, or the variety of live music acts playing weekly; Nomad is the perfect spot to sit, relax and avoid the hassle of downtown.

Nomad Bar specializes in world drinks and world culture by promoting food and events that showcase the world from our wonderful little oasis, tucked in the heart of the Mueller-​Windsor Park neighborhood.

Nomad was created to be the anti-​dive, the anti-​mediocre, the anti-​stagnation. We offer a clean, comfortable, well-​maintained space with some food selections as well as an extensive world drink selection. So if you long for clean restrooms, a nice space to look at that’s free of swag neon, the general feeling you are cared for, come to Nomad Bar and drink some of the world. You will be back.

History

Established in 2008.

Nomad’s story began about a decade ago, when founder Miguel Jimenez first dreamed of creating a comfortable and lively lounge in his neighborhood. Being a world traveller and appreciating the many cultures he’s visited; Miguel dreamed of a place where all travellers, from every corner of the globe, could feel welcome. After months of acquiring permissions and permits, work finally began on the space that would become Nomad.

It’s hard to believe this wonderful little oasis, tucked in the heart of the Mueller-​Windsor Park neighborhood, started as a dreary office space in a little shopping strip. It took a lot of sweat and persistence by Miguel and his partners to get Nomad up and running.

Their hard work paid off. Just one year after opening, Nomad claimed the Austin Chronicle Best of Austin Reader’s Poll for Best Neighborhood/​Dive Bar; a distinction some bars wait years to attain.
