    Since this bar has opened I’ve never had a problem. Staff has been friendly and I’ve had an overall good time. Tonight has dismantled that. I arrived at 8 pm to meet up with a friend and was enjoying my evening for a few hours. Another friend decided to swing by and that’s when the problem started. Some guy I’ve come to know as Eric Andrews walked up to me with crazy attitude asking me if my friend had his ID. I suggested he ask said friend for an ID which apparently lead to me being a problem. He proceeded to become ridiculously confrontational and ask for my ID which I provided. When he returned my ID he felt the need to escalate the situation by insinuating I snatched my ID out of his hands and was giving him attitude, then threatened to “throw my ass out”. I saved him the inconvenience and proceeded to walk out. Being the person I now know he is, he decided to bring attention to the venue by following me out with an inch space between us and announcing to his front door staff his brave and bold accomplishment of throwing me out though I decided to leave at my own volition. I’ve never in my life had any issue at any bar in my history of attending. Never returning to this place, though I’m sure they couldn’t care less.

    Great atmosphere, great lighting and music. located at business area, which made parking easier. Great drag queen show, keep audience entertained. Even they r very busy, waiters still managed to take care of different tables. Thumbs up👍🏼

    Touch Bar was once known as The Mining Co. - A cozy bar nestled on the corner of E. San Antonio Ave and S. Ochoa st. diagonal from The old OP and new OP with great beats and wonderful memories that took place on the patio. Having moved years ago, this place has expanded and given Eastsiders a chance to enjoy the beautiful and elegant decor, including the amazing drag performers and staff. Touch Bar remains in the same area of James Watt Drive and has moved further down to Suite A-16 and has expanded with a spacious patio.

    8:45 pm on a Sunday. Empty bar. Kitchen is closed. "Most of the beer on tap isn't working and those that are arent working well..." response from the bartender when I asked what was on tap. What exactly was the $10 cover at the door for??? To say I'm unimpressed is an understatement, this place is downright disappointing with management that clearly isn't paying attention to the experience of its patrons. Why would you charge people to walk into an empty bar with no entertainment and no social interaction.

    THE bar is a awesome place to meet interesting people and their Drag shows are totally amazing. I would really recommend this club to any one who loves to see great shows. And if they ask for a cover charge it is very low like 2 dollars and there drinks are very reasonable price for as strong as they make them. In my opinion I rate them A+++

    Traveled to El Paso from Dallas to watch Willow Pill perform. Great venue. Friendly door staff, friendly bartender, the guy hosting is charismatic as heck and the local talent was phenomenal. Recommend 100% if you want a good drag show

    I Used to love coming here but the woman who checks ID is always so rude and rolls her eyes at you, it really kills the vibe! Although Lola and China kill it with great service the gothic looking girl ruins the vibes with her uncalled for attitude

  • 1/5 Christopher D. 9 months ago on Google
    LOVE the performers and staff, though had a miscommunication error with front counter that resulted bad. After the incident, I was warmly checked on by other staff, but the error never got resolved with front counter. I’ve always loved Touch, so it’s conflicting to feel disappointment in an otherwise top establishment in El Paso.

  • 4/5 Christina S. 2 years ago on Google
    This bar had an amazing drag show! Service was pretty prompt, we ordered drinks and food (tacos &tequila). We were able to get VIP tables. Only down side is you need the exact number of friends to purchase the tix so it’s cost effective. The table seat 4 and it averaged out to $36 pp.
