Gin Bar

Great modern and hip bar, but not so great cocktails and sassy male bartenders looked like they don’t care about their job. Me and my bf was excited to try good selection of gins tonight but we felt it was not worth it to stay and get another round so we just left without even finish a glass of gin and tonic. Seriously, the drink was very blend and nothing special about it. I don’t know why Arrive kept those two bartenders there. They were no help at all. There’s so many bar selections around this place, so get out of this boring hotel bar and enjoy your time at other bars.

Gin is my go to alcohol, a good greyhound always hits the spot. However, The bar tender was incredibly rude, she was too busy talking to her friends at the end of the bar. I asked about the sloe gin and she was very unknowledgeable about it saying “I don’t know” and offering nothing else helpful. When it first opened the bartenders were great but now it’s gone down hill. Unfortunate, I won’t be back.

The manager Daniel was awesome! He answered questions and replaced my husbands drink when he dropped it right after purchase. Good atmosphere and 90’s DJ is on fire !!

A hidden gem with fantastic ambiance! Delicious drinks (gin focus on the menu, but they have a great spirit selection all around), good music, intimate setting tucked away from the hustle of E 6th St. Perfect for a date or group of friends. Getting there is a bit of a secret, but that’s part of the fun - take the back stairs at Lefty’s Brick Bar, or the elevator in the Arrive hotel lobby to the 2nd floor.

Refreshing outdoor space with a cool perspective of the immediate vicinity.

Guys come on…roach INFESTATION. Unacceptable. Visited 6 months apart, roaches remained center stage. Terminix?

For a place that was completely dead at 11p, I would've expected at least a single hi from any of the 2 bartenders while we waited to order after 2 girls. Girls took ~10 min to order and not a single acknowledgement from either bartender so we just left. Maybe it was an off night but given how excited we were to try this place, I'm in no rush to go back.

Giving a 4 star review only because it's IMPOSSIBLE to get to. Having said that, it's awesome Austin finally got a gin bar! They've got this incredible "tiki" cocktail that's PERFECT for the summer. Great balance of sweetness and is light and not as heavy as traditional tiki cocktails, would highly recommend. Only downside like I stated is that the stairs you see are not for use. So you have to wander around to the hotel entrance which is also impossible to find. Almost gave up trying to get to this hidden gem because of how difficult it is to get to

Decent gin selection, but I found the cocktail menu to be slightly underwhelming.
