I have only been to the McIntyre's in the Heights off of 20th so can only speak for that location…read more I have been to the Heights location probably close to 3-4 times now which is odd looking back that somehow I ended up there that many times. I wouldn't say it's a place I would seek out personally but I don't necessarily mind going there if others want to go. First off, the service is a bit on the slower side but I don't think that's the bar or bartender's fault. The bar area is small-ish compared to the amount of patrons that occupy the space. The patrons are typically there to pound some drinks too. It can definitely get a bit rowdy there; think overserved patrons, activities going on in the bathroom, people getting kicked out. It is unfortunate that cars being broken into in that neighborhood seems to be a regular occurrence too. If you're looking for a wild night out, McIntyre's Heights might be a good choice for you. There are also some clubs and other bars within walking distance too.

I had the Gauva L and my spouse had the Sandia. Service was good and overall, it was a good experience for a quick stop on the way to visit another place. We did have to wait about 40 minutes or so for crawfish as they had just dumped another batch in around 8:20 PM. I believe the pre-crawfish is from 4 PM and

From the outside looking I would not have know this place was a bar. I thought it was a tire shop…read morehaha, but once you go inside, it's a vibe. The decor is cool and they have music playing, its nice. To drink I got the Chiquita (blue pina colada) and my friend got the Tamarindito. The chiquita was very tasty, it was a great for being on the rocks. I loved whatever they used for the rim. The tamarindito was perfect for my buddy but not for me. It was a bit too smokey for my taste. We saw a lot of people ordering the espresso Martinis, so we wanted to give them a try as well. The espressos here are different than any espresso I've had in the past. The espresso martini here have a cinnamon taste to it, similar to Mexican hot chocolate. It was tasty The place was pretty popping on Saturday, seems like a lot of regulars come out here to drink. I like that, it gives a sense of community. FYI they charge 20% automatically and you can find parking in the lot across the street!

This place is a VIBE. Tucked away next to Iron Works, this bar has a chill atmosphere with drinks…read moreinfused with THC, mushrooms (the upper kind), or standard liquors. It's got a grown and sexy feel to it. The night we went they had a live DJ playing hip hop and everyone was having a laid back time. My friend partook of the THC drinks, the Capri Sun and the Strawberry Smash, while I stuck with classic cocktails. All of them were delicious and we had a great time singing along to the music. Would definitely love to come back!

Thank you so much for making a birthday/fifa watch party be such a standout event. I appreciate you more than I will ever express in person lol.

First time at TNP and I'll definitely be back !…read more Location/parking : I love that there are more and more things I'm discovering in east Houston! TNP is perfect as its own spot but also for a night cap after listening to music at East River (which is what I did) Parking felt a bit complicated. There seemed to be some street parking around but I wasn't sure if it was an option, so I tried to pull into a dirt lot I saw other cars parking in. Needless to say it didn't work out so well for me - my car got stuck in the mud and left me with a moment of anxiety as I tired to get out... That was the only negative experience for me though ! Venue: From the outside it seemed pretty small but it's much larger than expected ! There's and indoor and outdoor bar. The indoor bar has restrooms and some seating. Outside there is tons of seating and in back as well. Staff: I only ordered from the inside bar and the bartender there was awesome ! He also seemed very excited to make some creative drinks which was awesome and unexpected Other things to note: There was a dj for a while when we arrive It's dog friendly !

We ended up at Pearl Bar after leaving Beetlejuice Beetlejuice for our Houston Gayborhood meetup,…read moreand listen... this was not even part of the plan, but I am so glad we went. We got there early, so for a little while it was just our group in there, and that honestly made it even more fun. We had space to dance, act a fool, and just enjoy each other before the crowd came in. Once people started trickling in, the energy picked up in the best way. The DJ was doing their thing all night. We were dancing, singing like it was karaoke without the mic, and just having a genuinely good time. The drinks were good, and the whole vibe just felt easy and fun. Nothing forced. We even spent some time outside watching people play Jenga, which was way more entertaining than it should have been. I have heard mixed reviews about Pearl, especially about the crowd, but I can only speak on my experience. This past Saturday? It was a whole vibe. I have been before and it did not hit like this, but this time definitely did. Pearl is officially back in my rotation.

Unfortunately, I won't be returning to Little Woodrow's after my experience here…read more While the drinks are severely overpriced, the reason I'm leaving a 1 star review is because of the behavior/service from the bartenders. In my opinion, the bartending staff appeared to make assumptions about who they believed would or wouldn't tip based on appearance, and I found that incredibly disappointing. My guest and I waited roughly 20 minutes just to get a single drink while multiple bartenders spent time talking among themselves. When we were finally acknowledged, the service we received was noticeably different from the experience of other customers seated nearby, who were greeted promptly, checked on frequently, and treated with a much higher level of attentiveness. What makes this especially frustrating is that I was a bartender while I was in college many years ago. I understand the service industry, I understand that tip-based jobs can be unpredictable, and I also understand that not every guest tips the same. Some leave 20% or more, some don't, and that's simply part of the profession. Personally, I always tip well above the industry standard because I've been on the other side of the bar. The problem is that it's not a bartender's job to decide, before serving someone, who is or isn't worth their time based on how they look or how they're dressed. Every guest deserves the same respect, courtesy, and level of service. Great hospitality means giving everyone a fair experience and letting your service--not assumptions--determine the outcome. I also think about the couples who work 60-hour weeks and only get one date night a month. Imagine finally getting that one evening together, looking forward to relaxing, only to have the experience soured because someone behind the bar decided you didn't look like you'd tip enough to deserve good service. That's a pretty disheartening and disrespectful way to treat paying customers. I sincerely hope management reminds the staff that exceptional service should be consistent for everyone, regardless of first impressions. Until then, I'll be taking my business elsewhere.

Anytime I find myself on Main Street after 9 PM on a weekend, there's a high chance I'm heading to…read moreDean's. It's one of my favorite and most consistent downtown spots. The vibe always gives cozy-meets-classic energy(like what I imagine the Gryffindor Common Room would feel like if it had a full bar, vintage chandeliers, and a DJ that NEVER misses!) I wish I remembered his name, but he's been a regular for a while and knows exactly how to read the room. The set usually starts slow and gets progressively better, so by 11 PM, the place is packed. But if you get there earlier, you can grab one of the plush couches, which I love. In this age of "section culture," it's refreshing to find a spot where you can sit comfortably without paying a premium. The bartenders are another reason I keep coming back. Even when it's busy, they're attentive, friendly, and quick with orders. It's rare to find a place serving well-crafted cocktails under $15 in downtown, and Dean's manages to keep that energy, especially during happy hour. From the glowing red lighting to the vintage mirrors, curated menu, and easygoing crowd, Dean's gives you a lounge vibe without the pretense. Whether you're just stopping in on a spontaneous night out or for a thoughtful date night, it's always a good call.
