    The band
    Anna L.

    This place is literally across the street from the tattoo shop I was getting work done at so we stopped by. It looked like it was going to be empty until we walked inside and saw that the entire place was packed. There was a band playing apparently and we had no clue, we walked in while they were taking a break. We barely found a seat at the bar and were not greeted by either bartender nor did they make eye contact, it was odd. Finally the male bartender asked for our drink order then came back and said the total was $30...for two drinks, I was shocked. Without any explanation or even a hello..turns out he charged us a cover charge for a band we were clueless about...that was not a nice surprise and we ended up leaving before finishing the one drink each. Bad vibes for me and not my style of music either. Way over crowded and unfriendly, unfortunately I do not recommend this place.

    Came here for a date night and loved it so much my boyfriend and I came back for New Year's Eve. Great music, and atmosphere. The owners are a married couple they are very personable, & helpful. If u could give them 10 stars I would.

    Live music - great talent!

    I absolutely loved this place! Perfect little hometown bar that was once an old jail. Great live music on a nightly basis and the happy hour is awesome. Bartenders and patrons were fantastic and I really enjoyed just hanging out chatting with everyone. Owner is also a great guy! I highly recommend stopping by here if you're in town!

    a bar with a lot of bottles of beer

    Nice downtown Humble bar. Live music on the weekends and happy hour 4-7. Nice smoke free atmosphere

    Strong but yummy

    This place use to be a Jail in the 1930's and it has kept the original cell bars which is quite interesting.

    Where board shorts and bootstraps come together to create a laid back and southern experience,…read morewelcome Cowboy Surfer. Ambiance: 5/5 Nestled in the shopping strip center off 59 HWY from the outside it blends until you notice the sign and you see "cocktail lounge" I believe it's a first the front of Kingwood and I got excited and had to stop in. Plenty of parking and casual attire is welcome. But if you want to don your full on spurs, Stetsons and swagger or your surf threads, go right ahead! Although I'm sure shirt and shoes are required and you'll probably get cold since there is no sun or waves inside. Once inside the theme is as the name of the bar is, Cowboys and Surfers. Plenty of seating from booths, tables and bar. And there's also pool table and shuffle board. There was a live band "Pack of Strays" playing and was enjoyable. The lounge has live music on certain days and a Happy Hour everyday from 4-7, so I will have to come back to check that out. Service: 4/5 I sat at the bar and bartender didn't really engage much, though I noticed him engaging with a couple of select groups. No I wasn't on my phone when I walked in, if anything I make it a point to be mindful when entering any place as to note my surroundings and also be able to tell what the vibe is like. Though the service wasn't necessarily anything noteworthy, which attention & engagement would've made the experience/review a 5, the drinks were specially crafted which takes mindfulness to make. Food/Drinks: 4/5 Their menu has multiple options when it comes to drinks and also offer some food selections. I didn't get to try the food, but saw some items that looked interesting and want to try. They also have a list of beers and wine, so again, something for every taste. For this visit I only had two drinks. Beach Break: 4/5 with choice of Gin or Vodka (I went with gin of course) it has a refreshing taste as it is shaken with fresh cucumbers and lime juice, it also has simple syrup. It was more tart than I would think it probably was going for. I did appreciate that they didn't go heavy on the sweetness, but would've liked it with agave as the fresh ingredients would go well with it. For my next visit I will likely ask to substitute with agave as they do have it and it was in my next drink. The Kingwood: 4/5 crafted with my favorite "Hendricks gin" and named after the neighborhood we live in, this cocktail is also refreshing and enjoyed more than the Beach Break. It went down easy, bartender did ask if I was good with the jalapeño that it's muddled with and this time I opted to only have it with muddled cucumber. Again refreshing and not tart so maybe this is the alternative to Beach Break. It is made with topo chico and Tajín rim. Overall it is a laid back environment, live music and the drink options are promising, it's a cocktail shop (candy shop). If you live in the area or find yourself in the area, do yourself a favor and come kick up your boots and hang ten.

    This place has great drinks and nice wait staff. The food on the other hand needs to be rethought…read more We've ordered food here twice, once was a hummus plate. It was store bought hummus, which would honestly be fine, but instead of peta bread or chips they used bagged tortilla chips, which was odd. Second time I ordered beef quesadillas. The bartender said it would be ground beef which was fine. I was expecting something closer to burger, but what they had essentially done was take two tortillas, put chili and cheese between them and called it a beef quesadilla. Honestly I'd give this place 4 or 5 stars if they didn't include the food, but the food was just odd.

About five minutes before we passed Sabino's, I opened the app and saw the reviews. Great timing! We entered, and there was a customer standing in the front. We asked her if Sabino's was good and she began to rave about their food! She was right! Firstly, the service was extraordinary. Everyone is very helpful and friendly. We ordered mixed fajitas for two. Yummy! Hot, seasoned well, and the tortillas...amazing. The guacamole was SO GOOD, I thought about ordering some to take home, but we live two hours away. We have a ton of leftovers, which I'm probably going to break out around midnight. Don't sleep on this place! We'll be back!

It's located right off 1960, which is currently under construction, but it's definitely worth the stop! Satisfactory food, friendly service, and it feels good to help a local spot during a tough time. It was a pleasure to meet Mr. Sabino, also they have ample seating to compliment large parties inside & outside. Do not let the construction detour you. Stop by & give them a try #SUPPORT your local business owners.
