AUSTIN Bar Sales & Revenue Data
PICNIK
$4,690 in mixed-beverage sales, July 2026 (-15.3% vs. June 2026)
PICNIK also filed a mixed-beverage return for August 2026 reporting no receipts. A zero-receipt return is a filed return with nothing on it — most often a formality on a permit period that has closed — so it is not read here as a month of trade, and no percentage on this page is measured from it. The figures above cover July 2026, the newest month with receipts.

📊About PICNIK
PICNIK holds a Texas mixed-beverage permit at 4801 BURNET RD, AUSTIN, Texas 78756 in Travis County, and files monthly gross-receipt returns with the Texas Comptroller. Its most recent month with reported receipts is July 2026, at $4,690, the month before August 2026, the newest month published for the Austin metro. PICNIK also filed a mixed-beverage return for August 2026 reporting no receipts. A zero-receipt return is a filed return with nothing on it — most often a formality on a permit period that has closed — so it is not read here as a month of trade, and no percentage on this page is measured from it. The figures above cover July 2026, the newest month with receipts.
Across its filing history this location reported $1,682,692 over 121 monthly returns, August 2016 through August 2026 (2016 – 2026). That is a lifetime sum, not a monthly figure — the two are separated everywhere on this page. Its strongest single month on record was April 2022, at $25,492.
As a mixed-beverage permit holder (TABC Permit #MB955107), PICNIK reports gross receipts from alcoholic beverage sales to the Texas Comptroller every month, as Texas law requires. Food sales are not part of this dataset, and neither are hours, menus or ownership.
📉How PICNIK Is Trending
Each comparison names both windows. Where a comparison is not valid for this venue it is left out rather than filled with a zero.
PICNIK filed 121 consecutive monthly returns through August 2026.
📈Monthly Receipts, August 2016 – August 2026
121 monthly returns filed by PICNIK. Months with no filing are absent from the series rather than plotted as zero — a missing month means the venue did not file, which is not the same as reporting nothing. A month that was filed with no receipts is a real filing and is plotted, on the baseline and marked, because that too is a different fact from either of the other two.
A later return was filed for August 2026 reporting no receipts. It is plotted below at the baseline and marked with a ring, but it is not treated as this venue's latest month of trade.
Monthly Revenue by Category
121 months of data • Hover or tap to explore2 of these 121 months were filed as a return reporting no receipts — plotted on the baseline and ringed, because a filed $0 return is a real filing, not revenue. Months with no return filed at all are not in this series: the line skips them rather than dropping to the baseline, so a gap in filing never reads as a month of zero sales.
Annual Comparison
Calendar-year totals as filed. A year with fewer than 12 filed months is marked — a part-year total is not comparable to a full one.
📅Year by Year
Calendar-year totals as filed. A year-over-year change is shown only where both years are effectively complete — comparing a full year against a four-month stub would be a fabricated collapse.

Across every Austin-metro venue with enough history to measure (2017 – 2025), the strongest month overall is October, around ACL Fest and the weakest is January. PICNIK runs on a different calendar — its strongest month doesn't match the region's.

❓Frequently Asked Questions
- Is PICNIK still open?
- PICNIK filed a mixed-beverage return for August 2026 — that is the newest month the Texas Comptroller has published for the Austin metro, so the filing record is current. That return reported no receipts — a filed return with nothing on it, which is not a month of trade. Its newest month with receipts is July 2026, at $4,690. A current filing is strong evidence the business is operating, but the Comptroller publishes tax returns, not hours: check with PICNIK directly before you go.
- How much does PICNIK make? (July 2026)
- PICNIK reported $4,690 in mixed-beverage gross receipts for July 2026, -15.3% against June 2026 and -44.7% against July 2025. That is a single month, not an average: over its whole reported history the venue has filed $1,682,692 across 121 months. This is mixed-beverage (alcohol) receipts only, not total business revenue. PICNIK also filed a mixed-beverage return for August 2026 reporting no receipts. A zero-receipt return is a filed return with nothing on it — most often a formality on a permit period that has closed — so it is not read here as a month of trade, and no percentage on this page is measured from it. The figures above cover July 2026, the newest month with receipts.
- What were PICNIK's sales over the last twelve months?
- PICNIK reported $72,135 in mixed-beverage receipts over Sep 2025 – Aug 2026 (12 of 12 months filed, 1 of them a zero-receipt return), -34.7% against Sep 2024 – Aug 2025 ($110,419).
- Where is PICNIK located in AUSTIN?
- PICNIK files mixed-beverage returns for 4801 BURNET RD, AUSTIN, TX 78756, in Travis County. The Texas Comptroller lists the address on each monthly return; it reflects the permitted location, not necessarily a public entrance or current hours.
- What does PICNIK sell?
- Over September 2025 – August 2026 (the last 12 reported months), PICNIK reported 58% liquor, 33% wine, 9% beer and 0% cover charges. The largest share is liquor. Only alcoholic beverage sales and cover charges are reported to the Comptroller — food sales are not in this dataset.
- Is PICNIK busy? How does it rank among Austin bars?
- This dataset tracks mixed-beverage receipts, not foot traffic, so there is no direct measure of how busy PICNIK is. The closest proxy: by receipts reported for July 2026, PICNIK ranked #1701 of 2004 Austin-metro venues that filed for that month, and #18 of 21 venues in ZIP 78756. A higher-ranked venue sells more alcohol in a month; it is not a measure of how crowded it is at any given time, and that is a single month's rank, not a lifetime one.
- What time period does the PICNIK data cover?
- 121 reported months, August 2016 through August 2026. Mixed-beverage receipts publish about three to four weeks after a month closes; the newest month currently published for the Austin metro is August 2026. Every figure on this page names the exact window it covers, because a single month, a trailing-twelve-month total and a lifetime sum are three different quantities.
- Where does PICNIK's revenue data come from?
- The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts publishes Mixed Beverage Gross Receipts, a monthly record every Texas mixed-beverage permit holder is required by law to file. This page reads that dataset directly and adds no estimates, no modelled figures and no user reviews.
ℹ️How to Read This Page
What mixed-beverage gross receipts are
Every bar, restaurant and venue in Texas holding a mixed-beverage permit must report its monthly alcoholic-beverage sales to the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts. Those returns cover liquor, wine, beer and cover charges. They do not cover food, retail or non-alcoholic sales, so these figures are a slice of a venue's business, not its revenue.
Why every number here names a window
A single month, a trailing-twelve-month total and a lifetime sum are three different quantities, and averaging a venue's whole history produces a number that has never been true of any actual month. Each figure on this page therefore carries the exact period it covers. Where a comparison needs history this venue does not have — a full prior year, two complete twelve-month windows, three complete calendar years for a seasonal index — the comparison is omitted and the reason is stated, rather than shown as a zero.
How current is this?
Receipts publish about three to four weeks after a month closes. The newest month currently published for the Austin metro is August 2026, and every recency judgement on this page is measured against that month rather than against today's date — so a late publication by the Comptroller never changes a venue's status. PICNIK last filed for August 2026, which is that frontier month.
What a stopped filing does and does not mean
A stopped filing is not proof of closure — when a bar changes hands the new owner files under a new taxpayer and location number, so the old record goes quiet while the doors stay open. A gap can also be a remodel, a seasonal close, a permit transfer or a slow filer. This page never states that a business is closed; it states when it last filed.
