📊About BUZZ MILL

BUZZ MILL reported mixed-beverage sales at 1209 E 7TH ST, AUSTIN, Texas 78702 in Travis County. Its last reported month was November 2022, at $4,280. 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 $108,321 over 26 monthly returns, November 2021 through December 2023 (2021 – 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 April 2022, at $13,855.

The Texas Comptroller records the mixed-beverage responsibility for this location as having ended on 2023-12-27. 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, November 2021December 2023

26 monthly returns filed by BUZZ MILL. 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

13 of these 26 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 BUZZ MILL still open?
The Texas Comptroller records the mixed-beverage responsibility for BUZZ MILL as having ended on 2023-12-27, with its final return filed for December 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. 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 November 2022, at $4,280. 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 BUZZ MILL make? (November 2022)
BUZZ MILL reported $4,280 in mixed-beverage gross receipts for November 2022, -4.2% against October 2022 and -53.8% against November 2021. That is a single month, not an average: over its whole reported history the venue has filed $108,321 across 26 months. This is mixed-beverage (alcohol) receipts only, not total business revenue. BUZZ MILL also filed a mixed-beverage return for December 2023 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 November 2022, the newest month with receipts.
Where was BUZZ MILL located in AUSTIN?
BUZZ MILL filed mixed-beverage returns for 1209 E 7TH ST, AUSTIN, TX 78702, in Travis County. The address is taken from the venue's filings, the most recent of which covers December 2023.
Is BUZZ MILL 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 BUZZ MILL is. The closest proxy: by receipts reported for November 2022, BUZZ MILL ranked #1475 of 1670 Austin-metro venues that filed for that month, and #91 of 100 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 BUZZ MILL data cover?
26 reported months, November 2021 through December 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 BUZZ MILL'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. BUZZ MILL last filed for December 2023, 31 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.
