Very cool, I took my mom and nephew here as a little adventure to escape the Texas heat. We had a great time looking around at everything, the background story of how this came along was very cool after I did a little digging online to find out about it. Unfortunately, the kitchen was closed by the time we got there for food but it was cool to walk around and check out the pool tables and photo machine. I will definitely come back again and hopefully get to get something from the kitchen! read more

Cowboix Hevven - Bar - Speakeasies Near Me - Houston, Texas

Fun hidden bar inside Meow Wolf's Radio Tave. Super fun place to explore and stumble upon this bar! Tried the Eloc's Tears (with tequila instead of vodka) and Ol' Fashion PB&J. Both drinks were good! Would say this is a spot to check out more for the fun experience and dive bar/speakeasy vibes rather than like super sophisticated drinks. Friendly service. There are a lot of cool features so be sure to explore inside! read more

Cowboix Hevven - Eloc's Tears, Ol'Fashion PB&J - Speakeasies Near Me - Houston, Texas

The self-appointed king of speakeasies is back at it. Another one. Cowboix Hevven...I appreciate the creative spelling of what could have been Cowboy Heaven. Yeehaw cowgirl! I stopped by this speakeasy that's located inside of Meow Wolf (you need a ticket to the museum to access this country dive bar with a twist) on a Sunday afternoon for a drink. Ambiance (4.5/5): Loved it. Think of it as a country Texas dive bar that incorporates the quirky vibes of Meow Wolf that you see in the interactive museum. There are a few seats at the bar (with backless bar stools which I always hate), some booths, and some tables. Plus one pool table. Grab a drink and walk around taking it all in. Service (4.5/5): I ordered from the bartender. He was friendly, efficient, and closed me out promptly. He also made some recommendations when I asked for some. Overall, exactly what I was looking for in a bar experience. They use those handheld devices rather than bringing you a physical bill. Maybe I'm old school, but I'm not a fan. Food (N/A): While they had an interesting menu that fits the theme, I was on a liquid diet. Drinks (4/5): Full bar and they have a list of six or so specialty cocktails. I went with their version of a margarita that comes with a twist. One of the ingredients in the marg is Big Red. This was a first for me, so I appreciated the trill of a new experience. The bartender fixed me a pretty stiff drink, which I always appreciate. If you're checking out Meow Wolf, definitely spend some time at Cowboix Hevven as part of your experience! read more

I knew Cowboix Hevvven was located inside of Meow Wolf because I did some research beforehand, but for all intents and purposes, it's a divey speakeasy. The only way to get in is with a ticket to Meow Wolf. Seating is first come, first served. We grabbed the first table we saw which happened to be right near the entrance. There's a cool photo op at the entrance, but it created a bottle neck because people kept stopping inside of the curtain entry to take photos. Inevitably, unsuspecting patrons kept bumping into people when they tried to walk in. We watched this happen multiple times. The bottle neck caused crowding around our table which quickly got old. I didn't get our server's name, but she was very sweet. The bar was busy because it was adult's only night. The server went through the menu and gave us some time to figure out what we wanted to order. None of the specialty cocktails on the "Fancey Shmancy" menu piqued my interest so I went with a G+T from the "Hooch" menu. I don't know what type of gin was used, but the drink was fine. Our server gave us lids for our drinks so we could take them with us through the rest of the exhibit. Two of my friends ordered the Hot Slop which is their version of Frito Pie. I didn't try any, and honestly there's not much to say about it because it's Frito Pie. The loud metal music that kept randomly playing was annoying. Our server told us that it turns on when someone presses a button (not sure where said button is located), however it is also on a loop so even if the button doesn't get pressed, it will eventually play. It totally wasn't our vibe. There's a lot going on with the art in Cowboix Hevvven. We didn't take the time to explore because we were pretty much over it by the time we got to the bar. The one thing that was apparent is the good vs evil theme. If you care to know more about the art and the inspiration behind it, you can read about it on their blog. read more

Cowboix Hevvven may be my favorite bar in Houston now! Catch is, its hidden and the only way you can get in here is with a ticket into Houston's newest immersive art museum Meow Wolf. It's exactly as the website describes it....."Cowboix Hevvven is an immersive futuristic take on a honky tonk dive-bar left in limbo inside Meow Wolf Houston." You walk in and you feel like you are transported into another galaxy. I felt like I was in the Guardians of the Galaxy set or something. You can sit with aliens around the bar or at a table, or sing some songs with some on stage. My whole squad took over the bar. Liz was our bartender and she took great care of us. Don't come in here thinking you're going to get a huge meal or fancy food. They serve bar food like hot dogs, chips and dip and sandwiches. We saw a bologna sandwich on the menu and had to try it. This sandwich was delicious and was served with kettle chips and bacon jam as a dip. It was a pleasant surprise and a nice snack amongst friends. They have legit drinks here as well. I had an Ol' Fashion PB&J. The drink was delicious and packed a punch. Since it's inside Meow Wolf, the immersive art is inside here as well. There is so much thought and detail into everything. Just looking around you can be entertained, but they also have a pool table, a stage where I would think they have live music. You can get up there and sing like I did if your heart desires as well. There's a jukebox that plays some honky tonk music, but look around for a code to enter in for a nice surprise. Take a pic in their photo booth for a small fee as well. Find this place is you're in Meow Wolf. It will not disappoint! read more

We were so hungry running around meow Wolf and then found this inside. The place is kid friendly and had a few scenes set up inside along with a pool table. The kids were ok with their food and the brisket sandwich was not bad. I got the PB&j drink, but didn't care for it and would try something else next time, but the sandwich bite was an interesting thing to add to it. The cost was pretty low compared to Denver and the service was fine, just don't sit next to the entrance because there is so much foot traffic it can be annoying. read more

Such a fun place. Good food. Kind service. And a neat jukebox! Would definitely go again. Even if just to eat. read more

Cowboix Hevven - Such a fun place. Good food. Kind service. And a neat jukebox! - Speakeasies Near Me - Houston, Texas

Liz!! Oh Liz, made our experience so awesome! Made some great recommendations on the drinks and made them fantastic! I went towards my usual vodka soda, but then I saw hypnotic at the bar and opted to add a floater, haven't seen that around since the Incredible Hulk days!! Also got to try the old fashioned which was made quite nicely! The one thing I really enjoyed about this bar is that it's hidden within Meow Wolf! It's a cool little find, and the vibe is one like no other I've seen before. It's a cool dive bar with lots of cool little weird things. If you look around close enough you'll find all sorts of odd treasures that just work in this place! This could easily be a cool little hang out spot! read more

Located inside Meow Wolf you will find Cowboix Hevven. I was with three others and as we sat down, we asked ourselves where have we found ourselves. Because this was an experience in itself, we took a look at the menu and ordered chili and hotdogs and a dessert and a sausage platter. Our waitress was amazing. The experience itself was actually pretty cool. I felt like we were in another world maybe a dimension of some sort. The food was actually pretty good and the pricing was very reasonable. We expected it to be more expensive than it was, it was super eclectic in there. It's worth a moment to sit and relax while walking around. read more

Cowboix Hevven is less of a bar and more of an experience--and you should go in knowing that from the start. Finding it is part of the adventure. It's tucked away and not clearly marked, so unless you already know where you're headed, expect to wander a bit and second-guess yourself. But once you finally step inside, it all makes sense. The space is immersive, weird, gritty, and intentionally over-the-top--in a way that feels curated, not chaotic. The decor is wildly intriguing. Every wall, corner, and surface feels intentional, layered with art, textures, and unexpected details. It has this surreal, alternative honky-tonk energy that's equal parts dive bar, art installation, and cosmic fever dream. You can't help but look around constantly because there's always something new catching your eye. Now, food-wise--this is where expectations matter. Food options are extremely limited, more along the lines of novelty bar snacks than actual meals. This is absolutely not a "grab dinner here" spot. If you're hungry, eat first. If you're just looking to snack while drinking, it'll do--but barely. Drinks are the main focus, and the pricing reflects the experience more than the pour. Expect to pay a bit more than you would at a standard dive bar. That said, you're not just paying for a drink--you're paying for the atmosphere, the creativity, and the sheer uniqueness of the place. Bottom line: Cowboix Hevven is a vibe-first destination. It's fun, strange, visually fascinating, and memorable. Go for the experience, the decor, and a couple drinks--not for the food or convenience. It's the kind of place you're glad you went to once, and might return to when you're in the mood for something completely different. read more

Kind of fun addition to the Meow Wow experience. Loved that the theme was continued in a sports bar with alien creatures. The menu fit the venue as well. Service was great once you were recognized. read more

You can't order at the counter really because they won't serve you unless you have a seat. When we got there all the big tables were reserved so we had to awkwardly hover near a family until they left. There are some seats in the middle are and they did they have some delicious looking empanadas but the kids wanted ice cream so that's what we got with chips. read more

Interesting bar/tavern within the Radio Tave MeowWolf exhibit in Houston. The vibes are fin with props to sit with and music that is upbeat; every now any then the lights will flash to black light revealing hidden words on the wall for a few seconds. The drinks are good and strong. They provide a list of signature cocktails and standard drinks as well. Price was standard for a bar. Food is lacking. Only a handful of items and most are... an interesting pick for a bar. 3 different types of chilli. I asked for a side of jalapenos as listed on the menu, no jalapenos. I was told there may be pickled peppers. Nope, did not have any either. Would have gone well with the chilli dog as it was a very heavy meal. Hot dog is lackluster, bun is your typical hot dog bun. The sausage sampler appetizer was great, however. The sausage was tasty with a good snap, served with spicy mustard and pepper jelly it was a great mix of flavors. The nachos were extreeeeemely subpar. Nothing special about it for how much you pay for and very bland. Hard pass. Otherwise you're better off going somewhere else within the area for food. read more

Cowboix Hevvven is a dive-bar-themed speakeasy hidden inside the new Meow Wolf Radio Tave immersive art exhibit. They are still in their soft-opening phase, but they have a full food and beverage menu! I assume you have to pay the Meow Wolf entry fee to access the bar, because it's located in the middle of the exhibit. Equipped with a functioning juke box and photo booth, every piece of the bar is designed by artists to fit the theme. Honestly, I could spend an hour just reading everything on the walls and looking through the juke box. Apparently, they had 30 custom songs performed by Texas artists, so what sounds like generic country or tejano music is actually part of the exhibit. Drink-wise, I got the Waco's Vacay & my husband got the Whisky Cola... both were good and seemed appropriately priced. We didn't realize they'd have food, yet, or we would have come hungry. Super excited to see if/how the place evolves after their grand opening, but it's pretty fantastic already! read more
