No matter what the season, you can’t go wrong with a margarita. This tasty cocktail is loved by many, and, thankfully for us, several Midland restaurants know just how to craft the best margaritas. Thanks to the year-round sunshine in Midland, Texas, a margarita can be enjoyed practically every day of the year.
Some of these you might already know and love–and others might be calling your name once you discover their margaritas are begging to be enjoyed!
When the margarita craving strikes, many think of Gerardo’s first! Established in 1977, Gerardo’s has perfected the classic house margarita – whether frozen or on the rocks. Jalapeno cucumber and other fruity add-ons are available, along with skinny options, at this Midland favorite. For more on these delicious margaritas in Midland, check out their website here.
La Mision’s colorful atmosphere will immediately put you in the mood for a tajin-rimmed margarita. The drinks are large and refreshing down to the last sip and pair perfectly with their delicious chips and salsa, fajitas, or enchilada plate.
The Bar is a legendary Midland restaurant with great eats, cocktails, brunch, and live music. They’ve been around for over 30 years and have the clout to prove it. Test out one of their house margaritas and take in the fun atmosphere of this Midland favorite!
For more of an upscale margarita option, check out The Blue Door. Try Tommy’s Margarita – their house option – for a polished, refreshing take on the traditional margarita. Their refined yet unpretentious atmosphere will have you clinking your glass as you sip top-notch tequila. With a seasonally rotating menu, there is always something new to try!
When it comes to the best margaritas in Midland, Bubba’s 33 is anything but basic. This margarita haven features a pleasant variety of frozen and on-the-rocks margaritas. Choose from the All-American Marg, Bubba’s Marg, The Triple Crown Marg, and more! And, don’t forget to add the fan favorite rocker to any marg of your choosing!

You might come for their famous creamy jalapeño salsa or Boom Boom sauce, but you’ll definitely want to sample a tasty margarita while you’re there. Choose from the Grand Ma’s Rockin Rita, Strait Skinny Margarita, Pineapple Jalapeño Margarita, and more! And if you’re in the mood for something a little extra, keep in mind that Chuy’s is well-known for its Texas Martinis, too.
Many Midlanders frequent Clear Springs for the fried-to-perfection dishes, but the margaritas are absolutely worth it, too. Although there are a handful to choose from, including the Texas Grande Rita, the Rattler, and beer rita, Clear Springs has made a name for themselves with their Big Red Rita. And, just as you might think, there is Big Red soda in it. I stopped by and gave one a try and was pleasantly surprised by how flavorful and satisfying this margarita was. I highly recommend it if you’re in search of the best margaritas in Midland with a colorful twist!
Honorable mention: The El Presidente margarita from Chili’s Bar & Grill. It has stood the test of time as a fan favorite for decades.
