Pour Choices - Austin, Texas

As a bar on the weekends, this place does okay. The drinks are more expensive than average. The service is normally terrible and the staff always has some sort of an attitude. For awhile now this bar has been holding the Kill Tony sign ups on Mondays. Myself and every other comedian included absolutely hates this place. The atmosphere is horrible, the patio looks and feels like it's a few years from falling off. As I said, the drinks are way over priced. Nobody wants to drink here, they go to another bar to drink and come back for the sign ups. They just recently decided to stop letting dogs in which is absolutely silly when you are in Austin, TX and you hold the Kill Tony sign ups. Overall this place is crappy, the staff is crappy, the drinks are crappy and how a place like this ever got a hold of the Kill Tony sign ups is beyond me. They don't try and appeal to comedians, in fact they treat them like garbage so nobody wants to give them any business. As a normal crappy bar, it's okay, there's nothing special to it and it doesn't stand out. You are better off going to Shakespeare's, Buck Wild, El Chupacabra, etc. Going to pour choices is a major poor choice.

Was denied entry because I have a service dog. The front host was very nice as he was only doing what his supervisor told him to do. His supervisor advised him no service dogs when he texted for clarification. She wasn’t barking or being a nuisance in anyway to be denied at entry either. This is was early at 3 pm

Zack makes the best two dollar Mimosas. The happy hour on Thursday is what I target. Live music is a plus. 4 dollar lone star reds are not tall boys, but I don't mind at all. Two Lonestar 12oz and two mimosas is around 13 dollars. That's easy money right there.

Staff weren’t super helpful and kind of rude. Bouncer made sure to let three girls cut the (only like 5 ppl) line as if they were VIPs. Like there’s nobody in line just tell them to hop on line like everyone else. Super lame.

I recently visited Pour Choices with friends, and unfortunately, our experience was less than ideal. We were served water that didn't taste quite right, which raised concerns at the time. Unfortunately, the next day, a few of us developed severe throat pain and began feeling unwell. It's disappointing to think that what should have been a simple and safe part of our meal may have led to these health issues. I hope the establishment takes this feedback seriously and ensures the quality and safety of their drinks in the future.

I would really appreciate if the bartender wears a mask at least while taking the order, and if offers what's on the happy hour.

Great live music, 2 stars are for the band.

Walked in & ordered a round. Bartender charged me $57 for 3 shots and completely ignored me when I was trying to get her attention about it. Then the bouncer started to literally push/nudge me out of the way because he was trying to get other girls free drinks. I said excuse me I’m trying to get the bartenders attention and he says “well so am I and you’re in the way” .. ? Never again. I’m a bartender myself. This place is absolute garbage.

The place is a bit different during the day versus the evening. They had live music and a decent crowd. Good place to check for a drink and then visit other bars.
