Our Story

From Print Shop to Speakeasy

The Velvet Fox opened its doors in 2019 inside a beautifully weathered print shop building in the heart of downtown Austin. We kept the exposed brick, the old timber beams, and the quiet, secretive character of the space — and filled it with the warmth of candlelight, the hum of a live jazz trio, and cocktails built the old-fashioned way, one at a time. No neon. No tiki mugs. Just craft, patience, and a little bit of mystery behind an unmarked door.

The Experience

What Awaits Inside

Live Jazz

A live trio plays every Friday and Saturday night, filling the room with the sound of the era our cocktails were born in.

Hand-Crafted Cocktails

Classics and originals, built with house-made syrups, bitters, and slow-stirred technique. No shortcuts.

Dim, Intimate Rooms

Candlelit tables and low light throughout — the way a proper speakeasy should feel.
