I hate to write this, but I will never come here again due to a very bad experience I had last week. Tried to go there with my friend who is Black and was wearing brand new Jordan's, and he was denied entry at the door because his shoes were "out of dress code." Apparently Converse, Nike, and other tennis shoe brands are fine, but specifically Jordan's are against this place's policy?? Honestly this kind of racist "dress code policy" has no place in the city of Houston, among civilized people, or in 2021. The owner should be ashamed of himself. Do better. It's a shame, because in a pandemic I would be more drawn to outdoor spaces like this one, but my patronage here has now ended, and I will be sure to tell everyone I know (Black, White, and every other demographic) to steer clear of this racist bar as well. read more

This place's management is a joke. We were out here early on a dead night and their bus boy took our drinks when they were half full so they could get us to buy more drinks to replace them. Bad business tactic? Yes. The manager "claimed" they couldn't tap into the cameras to see what actually happened, which is ridiculous because we literally showed him how he was wrong. He said, "The customer is not always right." Bottom line: bad unethical business. Will I or should YOU come back here? NO. read more

The atmosphere is cool, but the dress code isn't. We went on a Sunday night, it was still fairly early in the day around 7ish. Someone I was with had on sneakers, we were told it's against their dress code but was still let it because it was early. Apparently the dress code is no sneakers, timbs, crocs, etc. but I did see some patrons with sneakers on so idk. All in all it's a nice spot to chill, grab a drink & listen to some music. They don't sell food but there is a food truck outside. read more

Me and my friends flew to Texas all the way from Tennessee for her birthday. We are all 23+ years up. They said they "didn't know" Tennessee IDs and denied us all service. We came with a good attitude and were confused why they denied us. Will never be back. They threatened to kick us out because we asked why we were being denied. So don't go here if you're from out state Just FYI!!! read more

This establishment and their staff (at least the ones we interacted with) are blatantly RACIST! We came here for a friend's birthday celebration. They allowed me in, but stopped my friend at the door for wearing sneakers. Another white woman, wearing sneakers with a sloppy outfit, was in front of my friend in line, and the door man allowed her to go inside. My friend (a black woman) was also wearing sneakers with a nice, themed outfit for the birthday celebration, and they turned her town at the door after most of our group was already inside. This happened literally back to back. I've seen the manager responding to other negative reviews of people calling out their racist behavior, and he's telling people to "come back next time in dress code", but that clearly isn't an option. My entire group of friends left the place for the simple fact that they are disgustingly and obviously racist. I asked very calmly why they allowed the first girl to go in but not my friend. They immediately got defensive. The doormen/security caused a scene over SNEAKERS. I wouldn't recommend spending a dime here. The aesthetics are nice, but not worth it. Whoever runs their Yelp page can respond however they want, but it's more serious than "dress code issues". I wouldn't be surprised if they are shut down soon. This is Houston and you can't run a business with this sloppy, arrogant business tactic. read more

Always had a great time there till last night, where one of the bouncers (the short one) was super rude not just with me but with my 6 friends. The tall bouncer was super nice and even apologized for the short bouncer's attitude. Management should definitely look into this! I asked for the short bouncer's name, not sure if he gave me the real name or not but i think it started with an "i" read more

Really cool spot. Has one of my favorite views in Houston. Has two different floors and a really cool vibe. Great spot for cocktails

Bartenders might make better tips if they weren't so rude and also not serving/ taking orders like sloths. Bathroom was clean.

Would give them zero stars if I could - showed up with my boyfriend, who was wearing yeezys, and my two friends one wearing Fila shoes and other one wear Nike Cortez and was told that we couldn't go in because it wasn't "dress code." The door guy was extremely rude and in the mean time other people were walking in and out wearing other sneakers and shoes that are not their so called dress code. He said we had to have on "proper casual attire". Meanwhile, a girl walked out in a bathing suit while wearing nothing else. If they want to enforce a "dress code" they should at least apply that to every customer :)) read more

Rude staff and overpriced! I was charged almost $13 per a mixed shot. Note, I've been here before and never paid this much for a shot. Still, I tipped the bartender since she poured it. I went to the manager to discuss if this was correct and he started off argumentative and defensive about the prices and his staff's experience. I didn't ask for free drinks or not to pay. After we discussed a reasonable percentage off and the manager went to the back, he decided to comp the ticket instead and ask us to leave and never come back for complaining. Why be in a customer service industry when you can't accept criticism? Why ask us to leave after we already discussed a remedy amicably? There's no point in spending money at a business that doesn't care about the customer or one that blows situations out of proportion. read more

77 Degrees Rooftop - a group of people sitting at a bar - Lounges Near Me - Houston, Texas

This is why we can't have nice things, Houston... The place has a dress code...yes, it is customary for ridiculously good looking people to sometimes slide by with slightly bending the dress code. If Adriana Lima tried to get in with flip flops, she is probably getting in with flip flops. If you are a woman and a mere mortal (and you know if you are), suck it up and dress appropriately. If you are a guy...unless you know somebody or are a celeb, it's prob a safe bet to dress to code. This stuff is not rocket science. This establishment is far from racist. There is an abundance of diversity in this venue, probably more than anywhere else in Midtown. Drinks are expensive, but weren't outrageous for Midtown (I think I paid like $8-9 for a whiskey/coke, make sure you clarify well or they might give you top shelf and charge you accordingly). Overall, this is probably the nicest rooftop bar in Houston as of writing this review and I've been to them all. If you think you can stroll in dressed like a slob, well, I guess you should have done your research before trying to waltz in and complaining about a venue you didn't even get into? read more

This place was nice.... Upon first view. Customer service is subpar. They make exceptions if your a man... you go first. People get really sloppy and push you around. Security does nothing. & bathrooms close 20 minutes before 2am. Save the grief and spend your well earned money somewhere else. read more

Don't go if it's raining or if it's going to rain, or if it will rain. Curious thing is, it rains in Houston a lot. The stairs are trash, and the bouncers get real rude. I've enjoyed plenty good bars, rooftops, and clubs. This place is truly a waste. read more

Awesome nightlife view of H-town and chill spot to just hang out and have drinks! I approve. read more

So we rallied a group of about 15 people together yesterday (Sunday early evening) to go check out this new place I'd heard so much about. Upon approaching, security stopped one guy in our group because he had a paper ID (a legal ID issued by the TX DMV when you go to replace / change your license). In this case, he had just moved from out of state and as anyone knows, when you got to get a Texas license, you must surrender your out of state license. They didn't like this, even though it has his photo on it. After producing a corporate Amex, debit cards and even company health insurance card all verifying his identify against his photo ID, the manager Kendall arrogantly decided they weren't goin to let this CPA for a Fortune 100 company into the bar because they don't like paper IDs. I highly suggest staying away from this bar. I heard on a good source that their opening weekend they were turning away throngs of people at the door for everything from dress code, paper IDs, etc. I'll still to facts here and refrain from even giving you my opinion about Kendall and his ideas for growing a new business in a highly competitive town. But in this case, common sense didn't prevail and after turning away a 26 yr old CPA because he "looked younger" than the age on his ID, they ran off a group of about 15 regular bargoers, none of which will ever be returning. I suggest you avoid this bar and save yourself the trip of god knows what reason getting you and your party turned away at the door. It's a pretty space that obviously had a lot of someone's money dumped into it, but it doesn't do them or you any good when your legal ID can't get you in. We frequent Rosemont on Sunday Funday which has a bad ass DJ, great space, polite security and a very accommodating space. We wanted to try something new but I guess stick with what you know. read more

0/10. This place was clearly created to serve ONE demographic...WHITE. There is no dress code listed on social media or on their website, yet I was denied entry due to having a camo jacket on. It's a shame that this isn't posted anywhere considering we drove 6 hours to visit this spot only to be denied entry over an unstated rule. The fake security at the door was ugly about the matter. Absolute trash. Will never try to visit this place again or any of the establishments associated with that owner like Wonder Bar who also has the same rules. read more

Not a bad place to spend a night out, but NOT a great one either. The bar is new to town and trying to establish a type of exclusivity similar to that of a club, so there are typically high-end cars parked out front. This applies to the "dress code" as well. My first visit I got in no problem, but was not so lucky on my second go around. The bouncers will ask you who all you came with in order to make sure the ratio isn't off (not a big fan on this). I was denied entry with my group of 3 guys and one girl on account of myself wearing Nike's. Can't believe my shoes would've been an issue had we come with more females. A little bit too much pretentiousness for me but to each his own. read more

Alright alright. So I may have been a bit hot headed when I wrote my initial review which was removed. Which is understandable because I used such vulgar language. But that does not excuse the fact that this establishment doesn't deserve a 1 Star. The bouncer is a bit aggressive with their patrons. They're the front face of the establishment, the first interaction with your guest, you'd think they'd have a little bit of customer service so it doesn't leave such a bad first impression with first timers. I doubt I'll be back anytime soon. Maybe if it was for a special occasion and couldn't persuade them to take their money else where. read more

Nice atmosphere and great drinks, was not really a vibe when we went.. people were out of control and doing the most, but overall i had a great time. read more

THIS PLACE HAS A DRESS CODE! Get over yourself, people. Just follow the dress code, be polite/respectful with the bouncer (not loud, argumentative or aggressive) and you'll have a great time. People in sneakers and jerseys - don't be offended, they cater to another type of customer. If you insist on sneakers or casual style - just go elsewhere, there's a ton of other bars around. No need to poo-poo a business on yelp if you couldn't get in, don't embarrass yourself. Who wears Nike sneakers out at night anyway?!? Personally, I like to dress up when I go out, and I like to see other people look nice too. Call it "pretentious" or whatever you want - it gets 5 starts from me! :-P read more

Okay so first off... it's a pandemic yall. At least have the decency to pretend you care. I understand that it's hard to make ppl to keep their mask on in Texas, especially in a bar... but at least enforce it better. EVERYONE... and I mean EVERYONE... was let in with no mask at all. The body guards were not wearing any masks. The entire staff were not wearing masks. I gave this place one star because this place is asthetically pleasing. The rooftop gives you a nice view of Houston skyline... the lounge chairs and white walls remind me of Miami. It has multiple floors and on of the rooftop areas is a little bit quieter so if you're trying to have a chiller night with friends and drinks, y'all could make it work here. But that's literally the only good thing about this place. My margarita was super watered down. The DJ only played house music and EDM Music and it was super trashy. Now I'm reading tons of reviews about how this bar refuses to play other types of music bc of "demographic they will attract". If that's true they should be ashamed of themselves. Other bars in midtown/downtown make ppl wear masks if they don't have a drink in their hand or if they're on the dance floor. And they must have one to walk in So go here if you want a good picture... but that's it. Literally that's it read more

Pretty neat semi upscale/casual place average age 21-30 group. The location is great lots of open patio space, drink prices are average. Nice views of the city, great music. Pretty chill spot, when I was here it was cold so the crowd was not as bad. I had a good time here will have to return when it's not so cold outside. read more

My friends and I were so excited to go here as we heard great things from friends but the bouncer turned my friend away at the door for wearing jordan's. gave us no explanation as to why they did this. read more

Clearly read the reviews wrong. This isn't a place to really eat at night. Club like atmosphere! Definitely a 30 and under club for the most part! For such a cute, eloquent place many people were dressed very casual. Crowd wasn't as diverse as I would have thought! read more

Really nice bar, great for couples and socializing. Very nice 3 story bar/ lounge. I absolutely love the hammock swings in the second floor. Great place to chill and vibe and drink. read more

My boyfriend and I went into this bar and decided to meet some friends outside after we got in. The second time around there was a white guy in the front, and he refused to let us in even though we were dressed well. Super racist. Definitely not coming back. The ambiance is kinda trash too. No one is parting inside. Do not recommend. Go to unicorn disco or wunderbar instead for a good time. read more

A little hard to find, above Wonder Bar but it's the perfect vibe on a cool night! I will give them 5 stars when they get a signature Bourbon cocktail on the menu read more

This will be an update to my previous review. Since my previous review will still be visible to the public, I encourage anyone looking for a description of the physical layout of 77 degrees as well as it's surroundings to read about my initial experience. However, this update to my review serves as more than a first-time experience. In the time since my last review, I have visited 77 degrees two more times. Let me tell you about both experiences: On Saturday, March 9th, the first Saturday since 77's grand opening, everyone in Houston must've thought it was a good idea to come and check out all of the hype. A group of friends and myself decided to wander back over here, mainly so they could experience the hype and see if my last review was all it was made out to be, and two, to get me my pineapple that I so desperately craved and sent me running over here to begin with. Upon approaching the building, there were easily over 100 people spilling out onto the street, waiting in a line that was not moving ahead of the bouncer. I thought it would be a great idea to, quite literally, skip the hundred people or so waiting, and go directly to the front of the line to speak with the bouncer. Why I thought this was a good idea will always escape me, but I'm glad I did. See, prior to my last experience at 77 degrees, I personally messaged the owner, Eric, to share my pre-visit excitement. Eric left his personal cell in his response, to which I kept on hand for my visit. I didn't actually have a reason to use it until then. I called Eric, after notifying the bouncer, and he graciously came downstairs and accepted my friends and I into the establishment via the back door. This was a very nice touch for my friends, and we thoroughly appreciated the ticket in. This was a very nice touch after the last experience. We had a great time that night. The place was super crowded, but electric vibes were felt. With one small exception: I went to the bar counter top, and tried to obtain my pineapple. I was told that the kitchen was closed. After all the hype, my friends and I left a little disappointed. Me, a little more than the rest. Twice tried, twice failed. Eric texted me about an hour after we left, asking if we were still around. He had saved a pineapple for me. Cue the "aww mans" cause I felt them all knowing I missed out on that pineapple a second time. Eric took it upon himself to remain gracious and invited us back, for a third time, ensuring that pineapple would be waiting. That Tuesday, March 12th, the original companion I took with me (from my first review) and I returned back, at Eric's request, and had the red carpet rolled out for us. Figuratively speaking, of course. We tried two of the drinks on the menu, both were extremely delicious (The "Chingon" and "Norman's Cay." Yes, I have both names correct.) We also had our pineapple delivered to us by the Kitchen Manager, who introduced himself, and told us a story about El Paso, his hometown, and how the chamoy, elote, and hot cheeto scene - something we are both familiar with from our upbringings, is a delicacy that is missing from mainstream restaurants, and bars. That was his inspiration with the CFO to create this dish - simply put, a pineapple filled with hot cheetos, candies, pineapple, melon, and drizzled with chamoy. It was very good, and satisfied all of my expectations, and made all the visits finally worth it. A few recommendations (although honestly, it's hard to improve on what you have): add more hot cheetos! Consider putting the little skewers through some of the fruit, so it's a little easier to eat, and add a bit more kick to the spiciness. Don't be afraid - us Texans can handle it! That said, I think the main reason for such skewed reviews here is a lot of unnecessary hype built into the media prior to 77's opening, as well as a lack of preparation for the amount of people that actually came out to support the opening. Having seen the transition over the first week, I think it's safe to say that 77 has found it's footing, and could use all our patience in providing necessary feedback, good and bad, as well as openly communicating with them about expectations, recommendations, etc. I have a strong suspicion that with a little more extra work, time to get comfortable, and all of our continued support, 77 will be all it was originally hyped up to be. Given all of the above, I will be back for another pineapple. read more

One year ago it was great ! Now all the furniture looks like they picked it up from the dumpster

Went here in the late afternoon with some friends for HH and had a great time! It was a beautiful, sunny day and the tropical drinks were a perfect compliment. Only giving 4 instead of 5 stars because there are no HH deals, the food won't fill you up, and the beer selection is sparse. I had the guac and it was fine, but not great for $9. The drinks I had were delicious and the atmosphere is so fun! Definitely recommend as a nice place to enjoy the weather, but maybe grab a bite to eat before hand. read more

Came here for one of my friend's after party for his Engagement and the main aspect that stood out to me was that the entire bar is outdoors! I am originally from Chicago and was visiting for the weekend so the entire outdoor concept was new to me but it was awesome! I got one drink from the bar and it was made well but a little on the pricey side. For the engagement, we got bottles and their staff took care of us by providing a seating/booth area for us to celebrate the day. The price of the bottles wasn't too expensive compared to Chicago prices and there was no cover coming in! Overall an awesome time and great atmosphere! read more

Nice place with great view. Just disappointed when the bartender( hispanic male on the 2nd floor ) was not happy when i ordered a cocktail drink from the drink menu that he provided. When i left my tap open and went back to get another drink he rolled his eyes and said "you again with your cocktail drinks.... can you just order something simple like the rest!" After a discussion here and there about how he didn't want to make my drink he ended up saying "go with someone else i don't want to make a cocktail drink." When i asked to speak to his manager he just said " i don't know he is somewhere around there" .... I ended up closing my tap with someone else and left this place. HORRIBLE SERVICE!!! read more
