Great place. Great design. Just fun. The bartenders are nice and friendly. The security, laid back and professional. The first time I went, on a weekday I walked in and it was empty. I have since learned it I'd a wild and wacky weekend college bar. Pick you're times strategically and enjoy the ride. read more

This is the most disgusting place I've ever been. And Ive been some pretty bad places. No joke, disgusting clientele, awful music, it REAKED of weed, and I paid nearly $10 for a Lone Star beer. A LONE STAR BEER. So many underage drinkers, they should be shut down. One of the lowlifes at the bar tried to fight my friend because he "bumped into his girl". The only saving grace is that the bartenders were friendly. But they should find new jobs. They were nice and respectable, this venue was trash x1000 read more

I was asked to come to this, I was denied to come in with a Service Dog, I was asked by a host to come into the Bar and owner doesn't want Service Dogs in his place, a blatant disrespect and a federal violation of the Law. read more

We were drawn here by the music. DJ was good. It wasn't too crowded. Security checked bags and bodies. Drink prices were okay. On average 8 to 9 bucks. Bathroom was a disaster and had no trash can nor tissue. People were throwing paper towels in the sink. Bar staff were nice. Big beer pong table. read more

My fiancé and I were attacked here after I asked a group of girls to please be careful dancing on the ledge of the couch we were sitting on. Nobody came to our aid until the police arrived. Security never helped. People recorded us being beaten. We were there visiting and hoping to have a fun weekend. Instead we were met with unnecessary violence and lack of empathy. My fiancée left in an ambulance and I was beside him with injuries of my own. Do not come here if you value your safety. Not worth it. read more

I can't get a response from them to get an itemized receipt. Tried phone call, text, and email to no avail.

I will say that we were there in a Monday night and Monday's aren't typically busy. The guy outside who convinced us to go in offered us a complimentary drink, let's just say they could've kept it and if those are the drinks they are serving no wonder this place was empty. read more

Had the best time on 6th St in Austin last Saturday. The band was incredible. It was afternoon time and not many bands playing on 6th. Windows wide open to the street and music was loud! We sat right in front of the band. Many young people sing and dance. Great ambience! Ipa was super tasty. Best time we had. The band was super! read more

We were looking for a layover spot to wait on another establishment to open and chose to stop in for a few drinks. Being earlier in the day, E 6th had not yet turned into Dirty 6th, rendering this bar a good place for a few drinks. I would expect a loud environment here, just like in any other bar down the block. Along with the drinks we were easily entertained by the hoops game, but if basketball is not your thing, you may find the claw game more interesting. Either way the prices are reasonable, even for slightly watered-down drinks, and the atmosphere is manageable. Cheers! read more

Yummy drinks! There are a lot of options to choose from. I enjoyed the $4 Sex on the beach & Blue Hawaiian cocktails. A lot of their drinks sounded delicious, even their shots. A live band was playing. They had a few games you could play like Connect 4 & basketball. It was hard to find a seat at 2pm on a Monday afternoon!Bartender was busy but provided excellent prompt service. Peaky blinders was playing behind the bar! read more

Just one thought: $24 for a double Tito's and tonic that wasn't very good. Live band late afternoon midweek was fun. Bar seating and a few high tables along the wall, good location. But let's go back to that first sentence. read more

I was so amused by the barker outside that it lead me in. The hilarity ensued inside with the claw machine. Drinks were really good. read more

The fact that I am giving a good review to a place on "Dirty Sixth" is insane and reveals more #chaoticenergy than I want to divulge or recognize within myself. My friend and I came here early-ish on a Friday night and each ordered a drink. Kairo (?), our bartender, was very nice and recommended we each get the same drink, in a larger size, for a dollar less. This would be intriguing, but I am a huge lightweight. Somehow, I acquiesced. The shocking thing is that, while a typical bar would make its larger, cheap drinks weak in order to turn over money and booze quickly, NOPE. These were very strong. I could not finish mine, let alone come close, but the lack of upsell and shiftiness already separates this place from its counterparts nearby TBH. Also, the bathrooms were shockingly well maintained. read more

Being from Las Vegas, I expected more from this location. I purchased a drink ( the guy at the door said the first round was on them, but I digress). I gave my card and left the bar (not planning on paying then... I was going to run a tab). The bartender yelled at me to come to the bar and pay. I give him credit that he didn't ask if I wanted to keep a tab. However, I told him I was going to run a tab. Instead of ripping up the current tab (to be paid when I left), but, he stated, "OH, I'm sorry." Really?? Then maybe make it right. read more

We set up a venue weeks ahead of time, not only did they not adhere to the contract we had set they cut our bar tab short. Do NOT go to this bar for an event they sent us to an entire different venue because they double booked us I really do not suggest this bar. The bartenders were rude+the staff was rude even though we had a 10k bar tab. read more

nothing special but they had some $4 shots were quite tasty. would go again for the cheap shots but not for the atmosphere... read more

Came for a couple drinks when on a bachelor party. It was a good time on 6th Street! Didn't eat though. This review is more based on ambience and feel of the bar. Got a drink fast! read more

If I could give it a 0 star I would. My cousin and his colleagues came from out of town and wanted to experience 6th St. I, having been to 6th street many times, I found it extremely unsettling and sketchy that the bar charged an automatic 20% tip (for 1-infinity) patrons without disclaiming it before hand. This applies if you pay cash or card. Now, for context, what if I came to the bar with a $10 bill and drank exactly $10 worth of alcohol, then I receive the bill and it's $12.00. Then what? I only have $10 cash. Now had you told me that I would be charged 20% prior to drinking, I would have only drank $8 worth of alcohol that I could afford the tip. Don't get me wrong, it's not the tip amount, in fact, had the 20% not been added, my personal tip would have exceeded that. However, since you took that choice away from me without prior consent, it pissed me and my friends off. We spoke with management and they explained that it was some type of tourist tax (which is not a real thing in Austin). They had no written policy to show us or any credible explanation. Needless to say, we will not be returning. Oh and top it off, they stand in the front and advertise $5 pitchers of beer, when we got in they only had liquor because the all beer on tap was out of order. Smh. The drinks were sub par and it was dead. So basically a waste of time. In short, we believe it was not a tourist tax, but rather a black tax and mind you we are all well dressed professionals who just wanted to have a good time. I will say that prior to the check being given, the bar tender was nice. read more

Out of stater here. Group of us just scootered by & decided to pop in for a drink during the afternoon. Bartender was friendly. Prices were reasonable. No complaints. read more

A few weeks ago I went to Pour Choices with a large group of female friends celebrating a 21st birthday. The doormen called us in from the street advertising that ladies could come inside the bar for free (men would be required to pay a cover). After allowing most of our party inside, the doorman stopped my two friends, a lesbian couple, before they entered. They were asked: "Do you holla at boys, or do you holla at girls?" (asking about their sexual orientation). After my friends responded that they are attracted to women. Then they were told they would be treated "like guys" and were asked to pay ten dollars each. The incident was very upsetting for my friends, as they were singled out for being a lesbian couple. None of the other women in our party were asked this question or asked to pay cover charge. After the incident, I asked to speak to a manager. The original doorman we spoke to continuously cut into the conversation exclaiming that his sister is gay, and that he even asks her pay a cover charge before she visits Pour Choices. The manager made no attempt to correct the doorman's assertions. The manager simply said it was just the way things are- but that he could make an "exception" for my friends' 21st birthday just this once. The fact that the doorman asserted even his own gay family members were not exempt from being charged a cover for their sexuality- implied that this practice of charging gay women had been occurring for some time. Furthermore, when the manager made no attempt to correct the doorman and offered to let my friends in as an "exception", it further substantiated that this was a common practice. The ordeal left us all fairly distressed. My friends (the couple) had both turned 21 in the last week and were excited to explore sixth street for the first time. Instead they were met with discrimination and a horrible memory that will last a lifetime. We were expecting to enjoy ourselves, but instead left in tears. I hope Pour Choices puts forth a sincere effort to make this right. NOTE: I am posting my review again because my original review was taken down. I received an email from Yelp saying my review was removed because it was "motivated more by news coverage rather than one's own customer experience with the business". My review in no way is motivated by any press coverage. Every detail of this review is based on my own firsthand experience. read more

Loved the artists over the weekend that played at Pour Choices with their renditions of my favorite country songs. I recently heard that the owner requested that musicians cannot play country on the weekends though and I would like to ask the owner if he knows where he is? I thought this was AUSTIN, TEXAS?? Just stupid to be that picky. read more

Everybody knows I'm no stranger to Dirty 6th. Every noteworthy memory I don't remember can be credited to the badassness that is the infamous 6th Street in Austin, TX. The value that Pour Choices added to the Austin nightlife when it opened up earlier this year has completely BLOWN MY MIND. Pour Choices has seriously upped the ante in making sure that they set THE standard on how a bar should look, and how it should run. Any night of the week you can always count on them to make your night a great one. From the music, the accent lighting, the boujee drink selection, big ass TVs to sweat your favorite games, to the friendly (and good looking teehee) staff, it's just a place you wanna go to with your friends to shoot the shit, dance like there's no tomorrow, or just have a badass time people-watching. Sure at times when it's busy, service can be a little slow, or it's so damn packed you can't move. This is part of the business and for them being 4 months in, I think they're doing a damn good job at rolling with the punches while trying to be the best bar they can be on 6th Street. Kudos to the staff, to the owners of the bar for creating THE hangout spot that people want to flock to on a Tuesday night. Y'all are definitely a huge reason why Austin remains to be THE BEST CITY IN THE WORLD. read more

Came here to watch an Eagles game with the family, awesome atmosphere upstairs! Great spot to catch a game, bartenders were both quick and friendly. The drinks were cheap and we were able to get Victory Beer ( our local town brewery back home). Love this spot for a group outing, can't wait to come back some day ! read more

Pour Choices looks like a recent remodel on 6th Street, it lacks the layer of dirt that most spots do which is why you come to Austin. So in that regard it felt a little sterile. But overall it's actually quite nice inside which was a welcomed change. Live music at the front of the bar was a nice touch, it added some energy which we enjoy. A frozen marg and a beer was probably $10 which is a great deal. We were only in here for one drink while waiting for a table at dinner. Nice 6th Street bar to stop in. read more

I'm making this review particularly towards the lack of communication from this company. I went to this bar on a Friday night. Yes, it was busy, yes I had a great time. Drinks are always good, and the music is pretty good. Skip to the end of the night and I left my phone behind. So maybe, just maybe karma is in my favor and someone turned it in. So I call. I call the number listed on google around 3pm on Saturday, no answer. No voicemail set up to leave a message. Nothing. So I assume they'll call back or maybe I called at a bad time..... who knows. So I wait and try a little bit later, around 8pm... NOPE. NOTHING. I've emailed the company using their website, and have heard NOTHING. It is now Sunday, 3pm... and still again, NO ANSWER! I get that it was my fault for leaving my phone behind, but the very least they could do is call me and tell me they don't have it. I see that they might actually care about these reviews, so maybe this will be what it takes to get a call back. read more

This is by far my favorite place to party on 6th. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. Everyone always seems to be having a great time and I have NEVER seen any customer treated otherwise. We all have our own experiences but this is by far one of the best bars on the strip. Side note: order the crazy fire shot from Jeremy. You want be disappointed. read more

We had a private party buyout here with about 350 people. Makell was great to work with. They are clean and the patio area is a nice offering for a 6th Street bar. Lots of tvs. Cool atmosphere. And great drink prices. We'll be back. read more

I really enjoy this bar. Rooftop access available. Drinks are good. The real gem is that they have the cleanest bathrooms on 6th Street. Lol

Great place over all, but please do keep the receipt on your way out... and check your statement..I only had 2 drinks and 1 beer and was not even close to being drunk to not remember my tips amount.. P.s. I was there on 10/19/2018 at 8.07pm read more

We had been here several times and already loved Pour Choices as a hip downtown Austin bar in this historic district along 6th street. We asked if they would be interested in hosting our wedding there, and although they had not done this before, they agreed! And we were not disappointed. Their venue was naturally beautiful being in a historic building. The exposed and untouched brick walls, wooden floors, gorgeous natural lighting, and large covered outdoor patio overlooking downtown, contrasted against their modern bar and decor provided the perfect combination of old meets new for our design tastes. In addition, their top notch sound system provided a great party atmosphere. On top of this their staff was outstanding....the bartenders were friendly and professional, and management was super accommodating to our needs! Overall we had an absolutely wonderful experience having our wedding at this venue. You should visit this place even if you're just looking for a good drink, friendly staff, and a place to chill. Thank you Pour Choices! read more

Delicious lemon shot, and the bartender charged my phone. Plus they have Eastciders Freaking WATERMELON ciders. What more could you ask for?

Great name. If you go here honestly that would be the pour choice. Ordered a shot and the gave me a sip of alcohol. The bartenders are so rude, when I asked about the minimal amount of alcohol poured, she had the audacity to asked "would you like me to measure it?" So I said yes!!! When she measured it that "shot" wasn't even 3/4 full and she literally looked at me with a dead face and said "see it's a shot". I laughed so hard at this damn fool and walked out. They tried to tell me it's illegal to pour more than one ounce... first it wasn't even an ounce and secondly what about people asking for doubles or martinis. Get your business together. This is a bar not a church. read more

Great bartender (Jay). Great music. Great drinks. Out of great things to say about this place.

I somehow lost my entire wallet in the bar on Friday night and as soon as I realized I lost it, I went back to the bar while it was closed and they said they had cleaned the bar and they did not find anything. I also sent a message to them through google and woke up to a message saying they will look for it when they get in for the day. A few hours later they have my wallet ready for pickup WITH EVERYTHING IN IT! There really are good people in this world! Big thanks to Makel for making it happen! Best bar ever! read more

MY experience here was the worst and that's because that was the second bar I've been to ever because I JUST turned 21. I'm sure if you've been keeping up you know why I had a bad experience, if not just keep scrolling through the reviews. The fact that this happened to ME AND MY GIRLFRIEND is just as bad as it happening to every person being charged a "gay tax" or even for gender! But we have been told that's not the case for many LGBT bar goers, so if this happened to ONLY us then why shouldn't we feel victimized or embarrassed? The fact that this happened period is not right and something I have and never will stand for. So this is my first time speaking out because I have had enough of what this business is trying to do to make my party look like LIARS. That is not what we are, we are women of integrity and respect and that is not something we have gotten in return from the business or it's owner, Ryan Saunders, who has been very quiet about this whole situation since the start. Mister Owner, your business is messy and the way you have other people handle things is very "pour" on your part. read more

Girls.. if this woman is working good luck getting a drink. I waited at the bar for 15 min by myself:-)
