Love the atmosphere and music. The staff are so chill ☺️ this is located on the 4th floor, past the cinema
The wax figures on display look amazing.
I recommend the Huckleberry drink if you loooove sour flavored drinks!

Can't say enough good things about the bartender on a quiet Sunday night - made an excellent marg, was very accomodating when I only had Apple Pay, and was clearly on top of his game! I'll definitely be back whenever we go to a movie at Alamo, and appreciate the excellent service and vibes!
Great bar with a nice view and chill atmosphere. It's lively but also not chaotic, just enough that you can have a conversation with company and vibe to good music. Decorated with many odd wax figures in glass displays, probably where this bar gets its name from.
I stopped in for a quick drink after seeing a movie earlier at the Alamo. Since I am a horror freak and consider myself quite morbid, I absolutely loved the ambiance of this place, in spite of it being a tad dark. Before sitting at the bar, I was pretty taken with all the amazing wax heads that they have on display. The bartender that I had was friendly, and he could really whip up a great and strong cocktail. They have a good-sized menu for drinks and reasonable priced, in my opinion. It's definitely a place to check out before or after a movie or if you are just shopping in the area. I will most certainly come back in the future.
Quirky little bar on the 4th floor outside of the Alamo Drafthouse, featuring several walls of wax heads and human anatomy. The bar itself feels like a speakeasy. You don’t need a movie ticket to enjoy the bar, FYI. Good, strong craft cocktails.
Met up with some peeps there and had a pleasant experience. Drinks were cool the wax figures are kind of creepy.
The bartender made our drinks with such care and finesse. it was wonderful to see how much he enjoys his job. Such a cool place to stop and have a drink and look around!
A bar in the cinema floor, just go to the fourth floor and head to the Wax. You will find a low light bar with a strange but interesting decoration. There are wax figures all over the place and the stage looks fantastic, I can image the Miss Piggy Lovers playing there.
The food is regular and the cocktails are very good.
It´s not a 5* review because I feel some menu options are missing, but please try the veggie buffalo wing…. Very, very good.
