    Great chill late night spot for good food and drinks. For non-beer drinkers like me, they also have delicious cocktails. Plenty of seating. There's also WiFi, if you want to do work.

    Great bier garden with good beer selection and cocktails, and a solid kitchen. I got the Buffalo chicken sandwich with fries and it was great - not too spicy and good flavor. Kitchen is a little slow, but not an issue when you're milking a cold beer!

    I visited Heights on a weekday during a college football game. I will say that it is a very, very lively environment to watch games because of how many TVs are everywhere and people there get really into it. If that's your thing, this is your place. It's definitely a place you should go with a group of friends as opposed to something more intimate. They also have a very impressive drink menu with pretty much anything you could want and at reasonable prices. The outside area is all smoking-friendly so be prepared to smell cigarettes if you're in that section. Service is overall solid. Bartenders are knowledgeable and professional. Wait staff made sure that empty glasses were taken care of quickly.

    It was darn hot in July but, love the vibe & character of the place. Nice band, not too loud to enjoy company we were with.

    Heart Center

    Very cute place to come have some drinks with your friends. There are plenty of seating options to choose from and the place itself is decorated nicely with all the lights and greenery. The music isn't too loud thankfully so you don't have to scream to have a normal conversation. The drink menu is quite extensive and there's something for everyone as they divide the menu into different flavor profiles. I tried the heart center and it was a refreshing, tart, and citrusy drink that was easy to sip on. The bartenders make your drinks pretty quickly so you don't have to wait too long in line. Parking is a bit tricky though so I had to park a block away. Overall, I enjoyed the atmosphere of this place a lot, so I would love to come back another time.

    Aperol

    Very lively cocktail bar!! Bier Garten is a very spacious patio set up with plenty of seating. Parking is moderately limited, be prepared to park a little further away if you have to. The place is located in a very robust area of town which calls for generally a good set of crowd on weekends. The ambient music can be a little bit loud at times but definitely not as loud as inside clubs. You'll still be able to hear yourself and converse with your friends at the table. We had a Aperol, no complaints here. There's also quite a few fans place around the patio area for a good breeze in the middle of a summer night. Its well appreciated.

    Crispy falafel
    Talitha C.

    This place is cute and unique outdoor sports bar/lounge feel. It's a large space with most of it being outdoors. The outside area is in the middle of two bars and lounge areas. One side is beer and wine with a wrap around bar to enjoy drinks, food and the games. The other side, equally as big but serves craft cocktails and feels a little more lounge like. The space is great for big groups of people and I did see reserved signs so it appears you can sit anywhere unless you reserve a table. The drinks were great and is a good place to hang out if you want a proper made cocktail. I love that they have the drinks broken down into categories so you know whether you're going to get sweet vs boozy, etc. The food was the highlight of the show. We came for brunch and had a veggie quinoa bowl, bruschetta and falafel. They were all stand outs The veggie quinoa bowl was just the right amount of food, it was flavorful and fresh. I dont really care for Falafel but I added a few pieces on my bowl and it gave the perfect crunch. The falafel was a little on the dry side as typical and one of the reasons I don't like them but it paired well in the bowl. The bruschetta was in stiff competition with the bowl. It had the right amount of acid from the tomatoes and vinegar and the bread was well seasoned. It the best one I've had to date. That entire meal for two was extremely filling. This is an order at the bar and they bring it out to you so there's no waiters which was nice when you just want to relax and chat with your company without being interrupted.

    Cheeseburger with fries

    Came here for a happy hour with some friends and ended up grabbing this cheeseburger that was seriously tasty! 10/10 will come back for the burger plus the beer lol!

    Very cute outdoor beer garden! Tons of outdoor seating ~60 people's worth. There are also swings located in the back. Service was fast. I did not order food, but I believe this is an option before the kitchen closes. Very cute place at the center of Houston heights area. There is only Valet parking for the immediate parking lot.

    Ambiance: Extremely nice & open Bier Garten with multiple outdoor seating options including picnic tables, swing table sets, bistro chairs, & more. Industrial and trendy indoor bar areas overlooking the main outdoor space (one for cocktails, one for beer/wine.) This is a perfect location for bringing your dog and enjoying a nice day or for a birthday/large gathering with family + friends. Several Instagram-y areas and the cocktails are *chefs kiss* Multiple TVs in all areas for watching a big game - however, the outdoor lighting seems to impact the ability to view the screens substantially and it is difficult to hear any sound. Parking onsite - although definitely note that parking can fill up quickly and sometimes they only offer valet. Extremely expansive cocktail/beer/wine menu. IMO the food menu is a bit limiting and expensive, however I've always enjoyed what I've ordered. Bathrooms are always clean and each stall is fully enclosed. While there is indoor seating, majority of the space is outdoors - making your experience here largely dependent on the weather. They do have fire pits placed around for cooler nights and misters in the covered areas for when it's hot out. One of the more expansive & nicely decorated bier gartens around town, I do recommend this spot! I also really enjoy the fact they offer such a large cocktail menu.

    Cheeseburger with French Fries
    Kim T.

    Came for a sorority event and it was pretty crowded with lots of seating but mostly outdoors. There are a few seats inside so grab them when you see them. The atmosphere is cute and casual and they have extensive menu of beers, wines and different drinks. They allow dogs which is so cute. Wish I brought mine. I ordered the Cheeseburger - sesame bun, sharp cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomoatos, pickle and I ordered without the sautéed onions. It was good. Definitely a great place to go if you don't mind being outside and in Houston ... it's hot.

    Juan F.

    Great drinks and very good atmosphere. I like the outdoor and indoor seating selection and that they have beer and cocktails too. We came to catch up with a friend and this place did the trick! They have tons of different drinks so they will have something for everyone.

    Empty patio - only asked for one TV in the empty back area to be changed.

    Been here on several occasions, and always had a good time. Cocktails are great, bartenders are helpful and friendly, and the selection is solid and varied. However we came on a Saturday and wanted to watch the US Open Championship. Asked a couple times but the response from the manager was "college football is on, we can't put on tennis". Like, bruh, nobody cares about South Florida vs Florida. We sat in the back area that was completely empty and requested to change one of their many TVs to ESPN and the manager refused. This makes no sense for a venue that has 30+ televisions. I do not plan to return after this experience.

    $9 pints (Guinness) on a Monday afternoon seems a bit pricey for bar service. Beer selection is a 8/10 for choices on tap

    Ask the Community - Heights Bier Garten

    Are there non-water/soda non-alcoholic drinks such as mocktails and n/a beer?

    There are a few non-alcoholic beers available like Lagunitas IPA and Hoppy Refresher. I don't believe any mocktails are advertised on the menu, but you could always just request one from the bartender and they'd probably accommodate.

    Is this place smoke free?

    No, but people rarely smoke there in my experience

    Is there a menu for non-alcoholic drinks?

    Yes, they have sodas.

    Planning to go on Saturday night, is this place 18+ or 21+?

    They only ID at the bar when you're ordering drinks therefore I believe it's 18+ to just get in. It's a pretty open and laidback place. I think it would be difficult to card every single person that walks in because there's 3 or more entrances.

    Can you get in at night if you're not over 21?

    Yes you can! They only ID you if your trying to get drinks from the bar, but other than that it's pretty open to anyone. Very chill and laid back place and they also have movie nights on Tuesdays!

    Is it kid friendly?

    Kid friendly up until sunset when it gets dark and as long as they don't go running around without supervision.

    Is there wifi?

    Yes! They do have WiFi. No password- I think the name was HBG Guest or something similar. When we were there, it wasn't very crowded and the speed was pretty good.

    Is it kid friendly?

    I've never seen any children. King's Bierhaus is more kid friendly.

    Is I️t 21 and up only?

    Nope. All are welcome!

    Good place to watch football? Does it have a lot of TVs?

    They've got several inside and a few outside. Probably good for a hometown game but don't go looking for all the NFL games on at once. Better off at McIntyres if you're looking in that area with nice outside seating. But their French fries are… 

    Food available when you open at 3?

    Yes, and I recommend ordering the cauliflower!

    Is it dog friendly?

    Yes

    What time is happy hour?

    3pm to 6pm Monday to Friday

Overall, friendly atmosphere, relaxing vibes, attentive wait staff, not much more you can wish for from a neighborhood wine bar.

When my friend made the reservation, she received an email encouraging customers to visit the tasting room before or after dinner. We showed up an hour early to visit the tasting room, however the host had no idea what we were talking about. Turns out they weren't doing tastings. Luckily, we didn't have to wait to be seated. We initially had a table that was not near a heat lamp, however an employee came over and let us know that we could switch to a table near the heat lamp which was appreciated because it was chilly. Our server was Laura. She was nice and funny. They had $25 flight specials. I went with the Sayanara Flight which had white wines. I really enjoyed them and they weren't too sweet. My friend had an NA wine which she enjoyed. We ordered the Truffle Fries and Meatballs. Both dishes were tasty. I enjoyed the aioli that came with the fries. They had discounted wines for purchase. Not all bottles were 50% off, however the gentleman that we spoke to went ahead and gave me a 50% discount on both the rosé and pinot grigio that I purchased which was so appreciated! It seems like there are quite a few businesses around town that are closing. I'm sad to see Mutiny go, but I'm glad my friend and I got to dine in on their final night.

    "Closing time, you don't have to go home But you can't stay…read morehere." - Semisonic I have lived in the loop for 5 years now, and I'm sad to say that I finally tried Mutiny on their last day. I often pass by it going through a shortcut to I-45 and sometimes going home around the area. It's literally a 5-minute drive. I booked reservations Friday since I saw they opened up the 31st on Resy. It wasn't earlier in the week, but I knew it was the last day, and my friend and I really wanted to try. I'm glad we made reservations because they were at capacity (150 person capacity) and weren't taking any walk ins. We got there early cause Resy suggested checking out the Tasting Room before or after the reservation time. We got there about an hour earlier, and the host said he didn't know anything about that except that the Tasting Room area was used for events. Interesting. We were seated earlier on the patio on this freezing evening. At first, we were at a table that didn't have a heat lamp, but when one freed up, they were so nice to suggest that we move closer to the heat lamp since they saw us shivering. Lol. We were thankful for that. I wore fleece lined jeans and brought gloves and a beanie anyway having been in the below freezing winter in London. Laura was our server and was kind and funny. So was this other guy who checked in every now and then. He made light of their last day situation. The dining area is so beautiful inside. I love the limestone-looking interior and chandeliers. Reminds me of Fredericksburg or something. They had many large groups and a few small groups of friends or couples dining on this last day. Way to go out with a bang. A lot of the wines were selling out or already sold out around 7-8 pm. We tried the truffle fries and Sicilian meatballs with focaccia bread. I like the thick cut of the fries and the black garlic aioli. It reminded me of yuca fries. The Sicilian meatballs were a bit small, peppery and salty. I wish the marinara was a little more tart. The focaccia helped cut through the saltiness. I had 2 glasses of the NA Sauvignon blanc which was light and a little tart. They ran out of the NA red blend. My friend ordered Sayonara, one of their farewell flights which were aptly named for "goodbye". It was a great night on the patio but chilly. My friend purchased a rosé and a Pinot Grigio as part of their Last Sail wines. Actually, the Pinot Grigio wasn't part of the sale, and he was going to take off 20%, but he also made it 50% off. So nice!! I'm glad we got to try them on their last day. Bon voyage, Mutiny.

The bread was very buttery and nicely toasted. The frank itself was very juicy and I loved how the pico and mustard help cut through the fat. The thing that made this hotdog stand out was the cheese sauce. The cheese sauce was delicious and I could probably have just eaten that alone. One thing though, the hotdogs were a bit on the smaller size, you probably would have to order something else or a second hotdog if you were hungry. Would come back again just for this hotdog! Parking/Service: There was a small lot on the side of the building, but other than that you might have to street park in the neighborhood right next to it. The ordering system was a bit of a surprise for me. You have to walk in to the bar and order there.

The décor, wine list, menu, comfortable seating, and cozy atmosphere make it such a special spot. They offer wines for every taste and budget, and the staff is knowledgeable when asked for recommendations. That's why this is difficult for me to write. Despite visiting frequently, I've consistently found the customer service to be unwelcoming. The service has a strange tone, and it isn't limited to one employee they all seem to share the same indifferent, slightly annoyed demeanor. The experience feels less like genuine hospitality and more like, "You're here what can I get you?" On my most recent visit, others in my group noticed and commented on the same thing without any prompting from me. Since they had never been before, it confirmed that it wasn't just my perception. One small interaction captured the overall tone. We asked whether they happened to have a birthday candle, and an employee responded in an annoyed tone by pointing to the candle on our table which, realistically, no one would put on a birthday dessert. We completely understood that they might not have one; it wasn't an unreasonable expectation or request. A simple, friendly response like, "Unfortunately, we don't, but we do have some delicious desserts," would have been perfectly fine. It wasn't the answer that bothered us. it was the way we were made to feel for asking. It may seem like a small interaction, but great hospitality is built on small moments. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and inviting, but unfortunately, the service doesn't reflect that same feeling. People return to places where they feel welcomed and appreciated, especially in a city like Houston with so many wonderful food and wine options. I genuinely want The Library to thrive because it has everything else it needs to remain a true neighborhood favorite.

It was hot out, and there are mosquitos, so we sat inside. I ordered the salmon plate for steak night. The drinks here are ok, and since I don't really drink, I was looking for mocktail options. In this era, most places have mocktail options with brand alternatives like Ritual, Seedlip and Lyre's or at the least, something with juice, Topo Chico and simple syrup. The female bartender made me a NA margarita which was great. I liked that she didn't make it too sweet or too tart which happens with mocktails that don't have alternatives and are mostly juice or lemon. On the other hand, when I ordered a second, the guy bartender made it too sweet. I didn't like his version. For the alcoholic versions, they seem to have good cocktails, wine, beer and flights. They also have daily specials. Aside from the steak night, they don't serve food here. It wouldn't be my first choice of bars in this area.

    It's worth a stop for their $1 Tiny Tini's. I tried all three flavors; the Espresso martini, lemon…read moredrop, and Cosmo- and for just a buck, each 2 ounce sip packed with plenty of flavor. I also enjoyed a sweet frozen cocktail topped with a fresh mint leaf that was perfect for a warm afternoon. Fun drinks, great value, and a unique experience. They have a food truck outside that serves food, from what we were informed. Thank you Tre for inviting me here. They did not have any food menus for the truck at the time of my visit. Happy hour start at 2pm, and the $1 Tiny Tini's start at 6pm.

    I had the great pleasure of dining here for my birthday and it was an excellent experience. The…read morefirst thing that impressed me was the service which was outstanding. Within the first ten minutes of entering, we had met not only a wonderful host but our server and one of the managers. Their casual check-ins were appropriate and appreciated, never feeling fake. Their restaurant is an upscale casual and simply decorated with an impressive bar and food menu. The meal was a combination of individual and shared dishes. I ordered the Ensalada Mixta 5/5 was great but perhaps not large enough to share, so get your own. Sharing the large plate of Paella Mariscos 4/5 was delicious but the hanger steak 5/5 is absolutely amazing. The wine selection is great offering something for everyone with flights available. The overall experience made for a fantastic birthday celebration and I'm ready for my encore visit to relive that great vibe. I'm betting the staff will ensure it's a special treat.

The food was so good we started devouring each dish as they put a new item on the table. ‍ Food ratings: Focaccia bread- 5/5. Warm. Buttery slightly crusty too with soft insight. Yum. Roasted cauliflower - 4.5/5. In a Wonderful sauce. Touch of lemon flavor. Little crunchy. Good! Ensalata Mixta- 5/5. Salad dressing vinegarette was wonderful. Vinegarette dressing is terrific. Slightly spicy. Olives are soooo fresh. I didn't recognize some of the olives. They were super tasty. Beware they have pits. Hangar steak - 4.5/5. Flavor is great. Tender. Ordered it med rare (MR). Not even sure if it came out MR but it was just tasty. Spicy Beef Empanadas- 5/5. A touch of spiciness pepper that lingers in your mouth. Just right. Flavorful. Flaky bread. Really good. Seafood paella - 4/5. The seafood was cooked just right and flavors were good with the rice. Staff: The staff was great. Our server was attentive & gave menu recommendations. Several managers checked on us. The general manager, Andrew stopped by the table to ensure all was well. Zac, the drink manager, also was super helpful helping pick my wine. He let me sample 2 choices prior to making my selection. I decided to get a flight so I told him what I liked & he selected & brought me a sparkling, white & red per my description of preferences. Also, I saw where they gave a birthday sangria where you order sangria & they pour it down your throat. I wasn't close enough to snap a pic/video but it was quite a thing at one of the celebrating tables. It was my husband's birthday but that was not an option for him.Lol. The atmosphere is elevated casual. It's lively. It was a very enjoyable date night, birthday celebration night. I absolutely recommend it & will absolutely return!

Great ambience inside and large community tables if you're there with numerous individuals. Free WiFi for the first two hours. Heather biscuit and their spicy jam is incredible. Pro tip: You can download their app and get rewards Negative: While I appreciate the large community tables, I wish there were smaller tables for one individual, but this really isn't a dealbreaker as you can see Recommendation for the owner: With so many unique lattes, I wish there was an option to get a flight of them

I told her they need to update this information online because it says they're dog friendly. She said only the patio is dog friendly. I said this needs to be specified especially since you have to go inside to order and order at the bar. She rolled her eyes turned around and didn't respond to me. That being said, both times I've come here here I've gotten the seasonal pandana latte and it's been very good. I would like do come back and try the food but I'm not going to support a place that doesn't have accurate information online and has rude staff when you try to help them correct it.

We…read morestopped in during a crawl and ended up lingering longer than planned, which feels like the best compliment you can give a place. We enjoyed a glass or two of wine, tossed some darts, and soaked in the relaxed, unpretentious vibe. It is casual in the right way. Easy to talk, easy to stay, and not trying too hard to be anything other than a solid local bar. The real highlight, though, is Posty the bar cat. An adorable black and white cat who clearly runs the place. Getting to know Posty outside was an unexpected and genuinely charming moment that made the stop memorable. If you are a cat person, this alone will win you over. Even if you are not, it is hard not to smile. Great drinks, darts, friendly energy, and a bar cat that steals the show. Post Beer & Wine is exactly the kind of place you hope to find when hopping around Houston, and absolutely worth a stop even if you are not on a crawl.

The bartender recommended a really nice wine and we shared a bottle over dinner. Two of us had steak, one strip the other filet. We shared French fries and green beans. Everything was so good!!

For appetizers, I had the Drunken Garlic Bread, and I honestly don't know exactly what was on it, but it was SO good. Lots of cheese, garlic, and just overall deliciousness. We got a few different appetizers for the table, and everything we tried was great. For my entree, I got the Italian Drunken Dip Sandwich. It was WAY smaller than I expected. It was good, but compared to the appetizers, it wasn't anything mind-blowing. The menu said it would come on the drunken bread, similar to the appetizer, but the bread on my sandwich was much harder. Not sure if they ran out of the actual drunken bread or if that's how it's supposed to be, but it was a little disappointing. Overall, I really enjoyed the appetizers and the atmosphere, and I'd definitely come back for more of a happy hour vibe.

Everyone I've been with lately has enjoyed their food there. Didn't get the server we wanted due to availability for our party's size and the one we got was a bit lifeless and only asked two people at the table if they wanted a drink then took off so I was a bit miffed at having to wait until their drink was delivered so I could request a glass of wine but other than that service was good. The setting is great and it works for couples, families and large groups and they have a great back patio which is nice when weather is nice.
