Boneshakers Tap House & Pizzeria

Living nearby, I was hopeful prior to going to Boneshakers. This there new location, which I think has been open 3 or 4 months now. This review is based solely on service and drinks, as I did not eat.

The place was dead, although it was 10:30pm on a Wednesday. The bartender was friendly. She informed us they were lacking much selection tonight because they usually get new beers right before the weekend. We had a choice of 5 or 6 Texas beers or wine. The beers were fine but rather pricey, $12.50 for two beers before tip.

The atmosphere was lame. I like funky places, this place is most definitely that. Parking outside is questionable in terms of vehicle safety. Inside, the music was indie rock but it kept skipping.

Next time, I'll try the pizza but I may just do carry-out.

Goddam brah!

I keep getting amazed everytime I go back and try something new.

This place is a hangout for cyclists (don't hold that against them) but the people there are always pretty friendly and cool.  They have great bands and a good list of Texas craft beer.

Now.  Let me tell you about the food.  

I've been there several times and I keep getting impressed at the quality and taste-probably San Antonio's best kept secret.  It's a hidden gem that, well, I want to keep hidden for my own selfish ways.

Their pizza is superb, probably the best I've had this side of the pond.  Try their Wilburnia (prosciutto, arugula, black olives) or the Choke My Sammy (Italian Salami, roasted bell peppers, artichoke and goat cheese)

And for dessert, wait for it...

If you check in on yelp, you get a scoop of ice cream.  Not just any ice cream but Texas craft beer ice cream.  Yes.  I said it.  I know it doesn't sound good but, craft beer lovers everywhere, rejoice!  Oh sweet lord I'm home!  Definitely one of the best things I've ever eaten.  Give the Chunky Prison Dream made with Independence's Convict Hill Stout.  CRAZY GOOD.  If stout is not your thing, try the one made with 512 Pecan Porter.  This one has chunks of pecan and chocolate chips.  

Nuff said.  Peace suckas.

The pizza was damn good and so was the beer selection. Friendly staff and a chill atmosphere.
