Prélude | Cocktail Bar in Austin, TX
Our Journey Begins.
Prélude is a cocktail and canapé lounge by Chef Matt Peters, located in a historic house just West of downtown Austin. Our cocktail program showcases top tier spirits in a refined and playful way. With a menu of seasonal canapés, guests can enjoy their way through the full menu or enjoy a few bites before a night out. Our space is perfect for a date night, large group gatherings, private events, or just a casual drink with friends. Join us for LIVE jazz on our back lawn Thursdays, 3/13-4/17, from 5-8 pm.
Thoughtful spirit free drinks, wine, and beer are also a part of our evolving menu. Our wine program has been curated by an incredible sommelier and offers wines by the glass as well as a full bottle list.
Prélude is just the beginning of the journey for what is to come for 707 West 10th Street. The house is over a century old and Prélude will evolve over the next few years into a full restaurant as well as adding Chef Matt Peters fine dining concept, Maven into the space as well. We welcome you all to explore the home and come along for the journey as we transform the space into something never before seen in Austin.
