Have to say it saddens me to write this. I’ve been going here for a while now and really have enjoyed the place; till recently. They seemed to have gotten rid of a ton of their staff who truly made the place and now it’s just cold, lifeless and another Austin bar with expensive drinks.

I’m reviewing as a speakeasy and it misses on so many levels. If I was reviewing as a dive bar, my rating would be much better. The floppy disk company/redheaded stepchild speakeasy, (which is the same bar) in Austin was a huge disappointment. I’d even say it’s not even a speakeasy themed bar, if it wasn’t for the secret code to enter. That is actually the best part of this speakeasy. It is a well kept secret and you either have to know someone who will give you a code or sign up to receive a code via text. When I went, I requested the code the day of and when I showed up the code didn’t work. There was someone else there who said that code was from last month, although I went on the 16th. Once inside, it’s just a regular dive bar with loud music and expensive but poorly and cheaply made drinks. This was a sore spot because you usually pay more for a craft cocktail from a mixologist. This place charged easy prices for a regular well drink you would get at a shot bar. Talk about the $ markup. Truly a disappointment. The place was old and dirty although it did have a cool red light appearance. I don’t know if there was something about the day we went whether it was a DJ party, but I felt like this bar was more for someone in there early 20s going to any bar on dirty 6th. It doesn’t have the sophistication of other speakeasies in Austin or really anywhere. I cannot recommend this place. Outside of the secret entrance, this place doesn’t resemble a speakeasy at all and was a huge letdown. If you’re looking for a dive bar, just like the others on 6th Street, this might be your place. As a dive bar, you would really enjoy this place, except for the expensive drinks.

The mixologists at floppy disk repair care a lot. The drinks were worth the hassle. The price is worth the hassle. Get the code and join in the awesome. Visit cock fight next door, be a great customer, get the code.
New menu is up, classics you love, new addictions. 4 Old fashioned options. But the purple drank is astonishingly good.

Have had excellent repeated visits, killer cocktails, great staff, anyone I send here always has a great experience. Ask for Cici and Rennon. Amazing service! Created fresh skilled craft cocktails based on questions gauging interests and giving a great drink tour of the menu and options available.
If a haunted house, a dive bar, and your darkest sense of humor had a love child—it would be Floppy Disc. And that child would be weird, sticky, unhinged, and absolutely perfect.
This place is every horror fan’s wet dream—literally and metaphorically. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by an unholy army of creepy dolls and teddy bears staring at you with the dead-eyed judgment of something that definitely saw what you did last summer. Oh, and casually lurking in the corner? A full-on sheep’s head wearing Hannibal Lecter’s muzzle. Because apparently “Silence of the Lambs” jokes are not only encouraged—they’re taxidermied.
Let’s talk cocktails. The menu reads like a raunchy fanfic between Freddy Krueger and a bachelorette party. I nearly ordered one of everything just for the names. “Bloody Rim Job,” “Midsommargarita,” and “Satan’s Backwash”? Who’s writing this? Satan’s bartender? Give that person a raise and maybe a light exorcism.
But what really made me lose my mind—and possibly my bladder—was the women’s bathroom. Picture this: walls covered in smeared blood, “REDRUM” scrawled across the mirror, and the pièce de résistance—an axe handle on the bathroom door like you just Jack Torranced your way into salvation. I felt more emotionally seen than I ever have in therapy.
Floppy Disc isn’t just a bar. It’s a chaotic shrine to horror, humor, and hedonism. If you’re the kind of person who’d swipe right on Beetlejuice, sleep next to a Chucky doll, or decorate your house with Ouija boards and cocktail napkins—this is your mothership.
Rating: 666/10. Would sell my soul for another round. If you’re a freak like me, Sloppy Disc isn’t just a recommendation—it’s a bloody rite of passage.

Pretty expensive for the quality of what you got, we ordered 3 cocktails. two drinks off the menu ( no prices on menu) and a mezcal old fashion and it was 75 plus tip. My Black old fashion was ok. The atmosphere was good not great and bartender was alittle rude. My wife asked question about two drinks and he dismissed her and said just let me know what you want and they weren't that busy.

Really good drinks, we love their version of the pina colada. Bar is nice since it's never too packed and despite playing music, it allows you to hold a conversation without having to shout. Theme is kind of funky and their ambiance is really laid back and fun, only complaint is that the service is quite slow.

Chalay the bartender was AWESOME! I had no idea this was here until frie ds invited us. Not sure how you get the code but the bartender next door showed me in. The drinks were yummy, lots of options. REALLY dark, horror themed.
