OK place if you can find someone to WAIT on YOU!!
We sat in a table outside in the beautiful (ha ha) garden and were ignored for 20 minutes. There was a table of 8 that was served beers twice and quiche and the girl (can not call her a waitress) didn't even look at us. Finally we went inside and talked to the MAIN bartender, we ordered from him, got our drinks from him and paid him. There were as many people who looked like they were on the payroll as customers. So it was a very frustrating place for people who were really not in a hurry. /P

Once was enough...
Charming building, relaxed atmosphere, great Happy Hour prices on a few drinks on Sunday afternoon. But the two other customers was really more than the clueless and overwhelmed bartender could handle. It took several minutes before we could even order. And with the other customers, it was apparently "name your own price"...since she didn't know what things cost, and was asking the customer what the menu said. One old lady came in and wanted one of the pastries for sale under glass, which seem to throw the bartender for a loop...not know what the next step in the sales process was. Finally the lady had to spell it out,"I WOULD LIKE TO PURCHASE ONE OF THESE PLEASE". So the bartender reached in with dirty hands and put the pastry on a plate for her. Not real hygenic IMHO...they should have just been giving them away for free, and letting patrons serve themselves, if they're not going to serve them properly for a price. We enjoyed the drink, the atmosphere for a few minutes, and had a nice break. But, it gave us no reason to ever go back. If you live within close walking distance, it might a decent neighborhood hangout for you to go for a drink, since the Happy Hour prices weren't bad, especially if they can improve the service./P

who is running this place?
I have been to Boheme 5 times now. Sometimes it's not bad, but generally the service is slow, the wines are warm, and the staff cannot handle more than two customers at a time. /P

great atmosphere and music
was called out to check out the monday night music act, was awsome! the gypsies where on fire! my friend and i went the following night and got to sit in on the local performers open mic night, we had a blast! if you enjoy going to austin and hearing fresh music you will love this place! the coffee was great and by the looks of it so was the wine and beers. everyone there was having a wonderful time. i've been to many yuppie and trendy wine bars and this one is not that! this place is grounded and comfortable. i will tell all i know what a great time we had there and will visit boheme over and over! let the fun remain and all the stiff uptights go where they belong, at home alone./P

Free Tony
Alright, I had enough. Boheme is a great place. great wine list, great atmosphere. All this slamming against Tony has to stop. Tony is The reason why people come to Boheme. "[F]ake British accents?" You got to be kidding. Got something against foreigners? Then yes, stay away from Boheme. You don't like the electic wine list Tony puts together? Again, stay away if you prefer safe conventional wines. BTW, notice how these "reviews" are all written within a short time frame? I really like the one complaining about the health code standard. Boheme does not serve food. BR /

You call this a wine bar?
On a recommendation from a friend, we took a group to Boheme after dinner at a nearby restaurant. We never should have gone. I don't have time to list all the disappointments, but here are a few: (1) They ran out of ICE. In Houston. In August. This then caused a snowball effect, where bartenders/barbacks had to leave to go buy more ice, leaving the bar manned by 2 very slow bartenders who were then only able to serve very HOT beer and/or cocktails with no ice. (2) As has been stated before, the electrical systems there look downright hazardous. Is it really necessary to equip your outside deck with flood lights more suitable for interrogation of prisoners of war? My friends and I felt like we were in Guantanemo Bay, with hot blinding lights beaming down on us. (3) The unisex bathrooms have no locks. Really? Unisex bathrooms are fine...but unisex bathrooms with faulty locks are not./P

easy going place and surprsingly spacious
It doesn't look like the typical yuppie bar in midtown and the place has some old inner loop character. Wine selection is ok, but a bit pricey even for house wines. Beer and liquor prices are typical for the area so not too bad. Parking is bad, but at least they give you 4 or 5 spots which is better than some places that don't have any. A few complaints, you guys have wires and extension cords EVERYWHERE whether it's cable, phone, audio/video, or live power. I couldn't even begin to count all the code violations I saw there on the ceiling. Also, in the back it's way too dark to see things and there is alot of junk laying around everywhere to trip on. So if you fix those things so the place isn't a death trap, and the guy bartender decides to put on guy pants, guy shirt, and underwear so his backside doesn't show when he bends over, this would be a great little place./P
