Been hearing about various speakeasies in Austin, and came upon this one.
Since one of the girls in our party has been here before, so we decided to come here.
To maintain the speakeasy-ness, you have to reserve ahead online. Once your reservation is near, there will be instructions as to how to get in. The place does not look like a bar like the others on Sixth Street, but once you get in, it is very much a bar.
We were seated in our booth, very interesting, it has a light for when you need your server, which match it's seedy backstory of the place.
They have a long list of house specialty drinks, and they also have a list of zero proof.
I got the Moontower, which match the red-light history here. I've never had Slow Luck 'liquor' before, but it has citrus and floral taste to it. That mix well with the Blueberry, Lemon and sage.
Overall it's a great place for a drink, it has a fun history and an added layer of fun with the speakeasy aspect.
Do make a reservation ahead of time, they give you a 90 minute time-slot for your session. They even make drinks in a cart table side. I will say, sitting in a booth at the back has its disadvantage, you do feel like they've forgotten about you. Our first round took 45 mins to get our drinks. We didn't have enough time for round 2. I do love the secretive aspect of the place.
