📊About DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN

DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN reported mixed-beverage sales at 1630 E 6TH ST STE 100, AUSTIN, Texas 78702 in Travis County. Its last reported month was November 2023, at $27,906. The Comptroller record stops there. 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.

Across its filing history this location reported $1,801,095 over 48 monthly returns, December 2019 through November 2023 (2019 – 2023). That is a lifetime sum, not a monthly figure — the two are separated everywhere on this page. Its strongest single month on record was October 2021, at $58,169.

The Texas Comptroller records the mixed-beverage responsibility for this location as having ended on 2023-11-06. That is the state saying the permit period closed, which is stronger evidence than a simple gap in filings — but it still describes a permit, not a front door.

📈Monthly Receipts, December 2019November 2023

48 monthly returns filed by DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN. 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.

Return filed, no receipts

2 of these 48 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN still open?
The Texas Comptroller records the mixed-beverage responsibility for DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN as having ended on 2023-11-06, with its final return filed for November 2023. That is the state stating the permit period closed, which is the strongest closure signal in this dataset — but it describes a permit, not a front door. Its last month with receipts was November 2023, at $27,906. 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.
How much does DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN make? (November 2023)
DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN reported $27,906 in mixed-beverage gross receipts for November 2023, -27.5% against October 2023 and -36.8% against November 2022. That is a single month, not an average: over its whole reported history the venue has filed $1,801,095 across 48 months. This is mixed-beverage (alcohol) receipts only, not total business revenue.
Where was DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN located in AUSTIN?
DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN filed mixed-beverage returns for 1630 E 6TH ST STE 100, AUSTIN, TX 78702, in Travis County. The address is taken from the venue's filings, the most recent of which covers November 2023.
What did DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN sell?
Over December 2022 – November 2023 (the last 12 reported months), DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN reported 84% liquor, 4% wine, 11% beer and 0% cover charges. The largest share was liquor. Only alcoholic beverage sales and cover charges are reported to the Comptroller — food sales are not in this dataset.
Is DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN 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 DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN is. The closest proxy: by receipts reported for November 2023, DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN ranked #1030 of 1792 Austin-metro venues that filed for that month, and #73 of 108 venues in ZIP 78702. 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 DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN data cover?
48 reported months, December 2019 through November 2023. Mixed-beverage receipts publish about three to four weeks after a month closes; the newest month currently published for the Austin metro is July 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 DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN'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 July 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. DROPKICK COCKTAIL BAR & KITCHEN last filed for November 2023, 32 months behind it.

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.
