Coolest Drive-Through

6th Street Cool Store

What's the matter, yuppie? Find yourself on the Eastside without fast access to some locally handmade, natural body products? Fresh outta Stella and need to make a good impression, quickshape? Well, fret not, you tasteful scourge of Austin. You needn't aim your fully restored '57 Merc station wagon with the wood panelling over the Congress Bridge to get your fix: The 6th Street Cool Store's got you covered. And hey, if you're feeling a li'l slummy, there's still plenty o' 40s, Resurrect hangover cure, and pretzel rods at the counter – like Festivus – for the rest of us. And you needn't even park the Merc.
