You would think all the great cocktail bars would be in the heart of the city, but the Clear Lake…read morearea has some major contenders. Getting to this area from Pearland is much easier than heading into Houston so I was more than happy to come here. I've been here a couple of times and the most recent visit brought me and a party bus full of friends here on a Saturday night. The place gets busy but parking hasn't been an issue on any of my visits. It's a narrow bar that may seem tight, but it keeps going towards the back with more seating as well as a spacious patio. Customer service is always great and the bartenders know their stuff here. They have a pretty extensive drink menu here and there is something for everyone's preferences. They have a long list of cocktails and they can make you anything you want as well. The staff are experts here. They also have an impressive bourbon collections with about 200 kinds to choose from. Along with their cocktails, they have a long list of martinis. I love a good martini and here they have so many options. You can't go wrong with my favorite espresso martini, but the one that wowed me here was the Cucumber Patch. Cucumber flavor profile is not typically something I seek out, but I was in the mood for something refreshing and this was suggested to me. Get it and thank me later. As far as food goes, they have a separate BBQ business on site that sells some food. Don't sleep on the Bay Area if you are looking for a nice cocktail. This place will quickly be one of your favorites. I will surely be back.

The Davenport Lounge Clear Lake has probably been there for years, and I somehow just now decided…read moreto check it out. I've driven by a countless number of times, and you'd never really know it's there. But walking in, you immediately get that local dive bar kinda vibe in the best way possible. I met up with some friends here for a chill drink after work, and to our surprise it was karaoke night! I have to applaud the regulars here because they can really SING! But don't be shy if you can't, they were welcome to everyone going up for a song. As far as drinks go, I had the Alimony. I was sold on it because it's gin, guava juice and elderflower liquor. Balanced, not too sweet, and had a little bit of sparkling effervescence. Pair that with a shot or a beer, and we were having a great time catching up with old friends. I don't remember our bartender's name, but she gave us great service. Overall 10/10 recommend the Davenport Lounge Clear Lake if you're looking for where the locals go, trust me they know best.

This would be a good place to wait for a delayed plane, cheap place for you and friends to drink and laugh. Certainly a dive bar feel. You get the munchies I would order something, but I'm not coming here to eat dinner. If I'm stuck at the doubletree airport I would visit here again for a beer.

The food here is hot, fresh &fast. Superior taste and value. And the brisket is soo tender.read more

If you're flying out of Hobby and want a spot that actually feels like a place to hang (not just…read moresurvive), The Rustic Houston Hobby is such a solid find. The bar space is perfect for getting work done, grabbing a drink, or just easing into travel mode. Comfortable seating, plenty of outlets (huge win), and an overall vibe that feels more like a real restaurant than an airport stop. Music was also on point! Food-wise, it definitely exceeded expectations for airport dining. I ordered the spicy salmon Caesar and fries. The Caesar dressing was the standout-super flavorful with just the right kick. That said, I actually think it might be better with chicken instead of salmon. The fries had a great consistency and texture crispy outside, soft inside, but weren't anything super memorable. Service was great, which always makes a difference when you're traveling. Friendly, attentive, and efficient without feeling rushed. Overall, a really great pre-flight spot that I'd happily return to-especially for the vibe, a drink, and that Caesar dressing.

I honestly thought I was…read moregoing to a hole-in-the-wall taqueria, but this is a full blown Mexican restaurant, and a solid one at that I don't claim to be the expert on authentic Mexican food, but this is some of the best I've had to date. I wasn't overly hungry, but I certainly ate my body weight in complementary chips and salsa. You are given a basket, red and green salsas, and refills for both. The green was especially delicious The exterior looks to have had a facelift over the years, and the interior is well decorated. There's also plenty of parking. We didn't have to wait at all for a table, and it was fairly busy As I mentioned, there are the majority of classic mexican delicacies on the menu, and some TexMex adjacent dishes, but again, I'm not the expert. I was in the mood for tacos, and that's what I went with. There are several proteins to choose from, and you can order tacos à la carte. I wasn't sure how big the tacos were (if they'd be street tacos sized), and I chose flour tortilla instead of corn tortillas, and the tacos were much bigger than I expected. My friend was in the mood for breakfast, and they offered that menu even though it was in the afternoon There is a full bar, but we didn't have any alcoholic drinks. They have jarrijitos and other drink options Everything tasted great, and I was surprised just how affordable my meal was. I think I walked away paying close to $8 for my 2 tacos Some tips: This is NOT TexMex. If you're a fan of Mexican delicacies this is a great spot for you. It also helps if you have someone who speaks Spanish. You can get by in English, but the majority of servers speak Spanish, and it definitely adds to the authentic ambiance Cheers!!

Everyone that works there is on some kind of drug especially the "manager " they really need to…read moredrug test them all but they won't because no one wants to work at a place where the manager is stoned out of her mind constantly. The owners don't want to hear this but it's the truth. Avoid this place. There's a lot more bars in the area that offer way more than this hole of a club. Poor management and worse owners because they obviously don't pay attention to all the cameras that are in there when the bartenders are drinking and smoking behind the bar which is completely illegal. Also they bring food that's cooked offsite and serve it in the restaurant which is 100% illegal. This place needs to be shut down before someone dies from a food borne disease. Prove me wrong, send a health inspector they will fail terribly. Nothing is labeled according to food service regulations. They never wash their hands between the bar and the kitchen. Even behind the bar the bartenders are messing with their hair and not washing hands after. Don't believe me go watch the cameras it happens every day and night. There isn't one person in there that's a certified food handler. I guess the shortcut that just like everything else food related.
