Eden Cocktail Room
The list runs to the theme: Fruit of the Forbidden, Naked and Shameless, Lilith's Affair, poured in a room about the size of a large walk-in closet.
Good to know
- Getting in: a purple door in the alley behind Dirty Sixth. The reviewer's own warning is to make sure it is the right one and not the back entrance to the Voodoo Doughnut next door.1
- The room: small, dimly lit, old wooden floors and brick walls.1
- What the reviewer says:
Austin may not have asked for a biblical sin-themed cocktail bar, but we got one,
and then,now we’re regulars.
The Infatuation gives it no score, and that is the outlet's stated policy on bars where you cannot eat a full meal, not a judgment.1 - What is not published: no base spirit, no build, no bartender and no menu structure appears in anything published about this bar, so this entry names the drinks and does not assess them.
- Hygiene: no Austin Public Health record exists for this bar.3
- Not this business: BBG's, the Sunset Strip Comedy Club and The Parish all trade at 214 East 6th under their own facility_ids. None of their scores belongs to Eden.3
Verdict
could-visit — A small, dim, biblical-sin-themed cocktail room behind a purple door in the alley off Dirty Sixth, with a bar about the size of a large walk-in closet and a list of drinks named Fruit of the Forbidden, Naked and Shameless and Lilith's Affair. The Infatuation does not score bars that serve no full meal, so it is unrated by policy rather than judgment, and the reviewer says he became a regular. Nothing published anywhere read describes how any of the drinks is built, so there is nothing to argue about yet. No public inspection record exists for it.
