I have been to this bar on three different occasions, and it only gets worse. There is nothing worse than enjoying a night out and encountering rude and cocky staff. After ordering a drink, the bartender proceeded to tell me that he did not want to make my drink again and to pick something else. I thought he was joking and insisted that I did not want anything but that particular drink. After wasting time trying to get me to choose something 'more fun to make' he handed me what looked to be what I ordered. Only after I had paid and walked away did I take a sip to realize that he purposely made a completely different drink. - Poorly made at that with a repulsively undrinkable strong watermelon taste. It was awful and ridiculously priced! After a short lived night at Spill due to the cocky staff, over-priced poorly-made drinks, and the young & aggressive crowd (several outbreaks occurred that night not to mention people constantly getting rudely shoved around) I would never go back and can only hope that a new bar will take over the hole in wall soon. Too many bars like this on 6th street will ruin the tradition of fun Austin nightlife. I suppose the only constructive criticism I can offer is to employ a more polite staff and treat customers like actual guests. The cocky kids you have at the door and behind the bar forget that they are there to serve the customer. The service overall would need to improve drastically for me to ever consider returning or recommending this place to anyone I know.
Pros: it is on 6th street
Cons: Service, drinks, etc
