We love the Firehouse Lounge. The bartenders are artist! Could have better background music but other than that, we love having cocktails here.

WARNING! KEEP YOUR RECEIPT AND CHECK THE AMOUNT THAT POSTS TO YOUR ACCOUNT BECAUSE THEY ADD BIGGER TIPS FOR THEMSELVES!!! It's a shame too bcuz my friends and I had a good night but I just checked my card to see that they added an extra $10 on top of the tip I'd already given for 2 drinks.

Cool place with tasty drinks and a good happy hour
Expecting a firehouse but somehow ended up at a cute speakeasy where you enter through a bookcase in the wall? Just another regular Friday night in Austin.
In all seriousness though, Firehouse is a decent speakeasy where half the fun is in taking photos at the sliding bookcase and the other half is after you wait about 20 minutes for your drinks. We ordered the passion fruit daiquiri and old fashioned (they couldn’t make a strawberry daiquiri variation, not sure if they couldn’t or wouldn’t). The drinks are good and strong but in a dimly lit speakeasy with a strange floor plan it never really felt worth the wait. There is sometimes live music which we unfortunately didn’t catch so there’s likely nights where the energy is much higher and you wouldn’t even notice.
The speakeasy is on the far more accessible side (definitely not for parking, but it’s 6th so you should Uber anyways) which is good for those who want a casual find and might be fine with waiting for their drinks. It comes across as more of a lounge so be aware of that before expecting a lot of it. But in an area littered with other options, Firehouse feels a bit lacking. We’d recommend it as a warmup bar if you’re going out for a night on 6th but wouldn’t put it down as the highlight.

Fun little speakeasy, enter through a bookshelf of the hostel. Cocktails are good but nothing classy, a good selection of basics but feels more like a dive bar that gets busy late night (got there around 5 pm on a Saturday and the was no live music and still felt a bit slow).

The bees knees is damn fantastic. Highly recommend
