Ski lodge vibes transform the rooftop into St. Henry Winter Wonderland, featuring private little lodges, outdoor fireplaces, and a Christmas cocktail selection headed by a Chai Tea Bourbon Snow globe.
Karmma & kocktails restaurant & bar
West Dallas • $$
Karma & Kocktails brings Nepalese-Indian fusion to Trinity Groves with momos, masala shots, and creative cocktails in a loungey, date-night-ready space. Daily happy hour keeps the Martinis and Himalayan Mules flowing cheap.
The Branca Room

Tucked away in the Bishop Arts District, The Branca Room is a moody, late-night destination dedicated to craft cocktails. It is the spot for those seeking a quiet, refined drink well past midnight.
The Wild Detectives - Stories
Bishop Arts District
Part bookstore, part bar, all charm: The Wild Detectives pairs locally curated shelves with coffee, cocktails, and a backyard made for lingering. WiFi cuts off in the evening, so conversation takes over.
POLANCO
Sundance Square • $$$
Polanco pairs skyline views with tableside cocktails and a dramatic Tomahawk Steak, then sends you downstairs to a reggaeton-fueled nightclub. Come for the presentation, stay for the party.

Frequently asked questions
How are these cocktail bars in Dallas chosen?
I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Is everything here still happening?
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
How can Outgoing help me find something I’ll actually want to do?
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.
Do I need an account to use Outgoing?
You can browse these pages without an account. Sign in to save activities and help me learn your taste, so future suggestions have a better starting point.
Is Outgoing free?
Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
