Been going here for a while, so I know everyone's mad about the changes. The staff is friendly and tries to upsell liquor. Overall, the quality is similar, but the pours seem to have changed from a double to a single, while the prices have stayed the same. Davenport is expensive, and the menu is huge, so wait times are long. The drinks are good but not at their current price point. The food is hit or miss. Sometimes there are freshly cooked items, other times it's just pre-packaged snacks that are $10. Overall, some drinks are really good, but be ready to open up that wallet.

This place is an absolute GEM. Our brunch was delicious and fresh. The tunes were on point. The staff was super friendly and the overall vibe was relaxed. We will definitely be back soon!

Should've done this review a long time ago but I partied too hard. JoJo was awesome at the Davenport when I went with a group of friends and I always love the cocktails here. The atmosphere is always so welcoming too

This business was such a safe haven for the LGBTQIA community of Hays County. Learning that the owner decided to cease drag brunch AND coincidentally fire the bartenders that are also a part of that community was an incredible disappointment. And the reason for this decision? “It’s just business.” Thats not business. Thats nothing less than despicable. I will not be supporting this business any further. I advise anyone with sound morals to do the same.

Had a good steak and some tunes on a Monday evening. The steak was good, the potatoes and Brussels sprouts were excellent. Was advertised as steak and jazz from 6-10, but the band seemed to set up around 7. Overall we had a great experience!

I would give more stars if I could. Kelsi was a phenomenal bartender, host. She kept us laughing, comfortable , and rofl. I was hesitant to come because a not so gentleman arturo had put me off to this place but I thought hey Jojo and Sam might be there let’s give it a shot. I was not disappointed by giving them a second chance. Drinks were on point and environment was lit and mind you for a few moments it was only us three. I would come back just to buy drinks from Kelsi.

Went there a few afternoons ago and the first thing I noticed was the atmosphere. Very modern, laid back, and accepting, which I am all about. But the reason for the lowered rating is the pricing. It's outrageously pricy and I almost left for the Golden Chick across the street. The drinks were generally terrible with 1 out of 6 being good. While I enjoyed my time there, it was 100% due to the company and nothing The Davenport had to offer.

I’ve been to Davenport a few times now. I’ve never had a problem with my dog. I have a 10 month old puppy tonight. The bartender who was drinking the whole time. I was there shots of whatever and more I asked her for a martini she refused to serve me unless my dog would stop yapping my dog yapped a couple of times when she got very excited about a dog coming into the premises she’s a puppy, she quickly calm down. The bartender was very agitated and ignorant. She refused to serve martini unless my dog shut up. At no time was my dog barking yeah she got a little excited at other dogs walking in, but she quickly calm down. This is the worst dog experience I’ve ever had. No one else complained about my dog only the bartender who was drinking the whole time I was there shame on her it was July, 24th between the hours of 5 and 8 PM. The fact that the bartender was actually drinking the shameful in itself and shame on her for being agitated because she was drunk.
