Booked 2 times today
A cozy, 12-seat hidden gem in Jacksonville, Texas, where craftsmanship meets cocktails. Founded by Bud and Anne Farmer, the bar’s name is a nod to Bud’s woodworking background—specifically, the half-blind dovetail joint, a mark of precision and expertise. That same attention to detail carries over to every drink poured at Half Blind, where craft cocktails, top-shelf liquor, fine wine, and quality beer are served with care. Intimate, inviting, and built on a foundation of true craftsmanship, Half Blind Bar is a tribute to both the art of woodworking and the art of a well-made drink.

    The beef Wellington appetizer was delicious. Also, my Thai Salmon entree and our churros dessert was perfect. We had a table of six. Sharing appetizers and dessert worked well for us. Our server, Christian was attentive and helpful with our choices. I look forward to coming again soon
