    Texas Renaissance Festival - Falconers hearth

    I have been coming here for years. I mean decades. If you, your partner, your family, your friends…read moreare looking for something cool to do that you don't get to do everyday. You should come to TRF. At the very least, this is the largest Renaissance festival in the US if not elsewhere as well. I highly suggest getting in early because the lines to get in throughout the day get longer. This place can get pretty packed, both at the gate and in the food and drink lines. They have a ginormous parking lot, it's dirt and grass. And it can bottleneck quite a bit at the entry point. Once you're in, they have hundreds of stalls of food, merchant selling different things, people putting on different types of shows, be it skill, craft, or comedy/drama. There's plenty of activities. The park itself is sectioned off into different themed areas, both the food and activities follow suit. They have tons of shows around the different areas in addition to the Central stage where you can see the king, jousting, sword fighting and the whole lot. Highly suggest going to the restroom before you leave, because you will likely be stuck in some traffic on the way out and you don't want to hold it. Trust me. In the last couple years I've taken to camping on their campgrounds. This requires an extra pass for camping, in addition to your entry. If you do things in groups it costs a lot less with a discount. They have porta potties throughout the campgrounds, and also a brick and mortar shower and restroom at the front of the campgrounds. The campgrounds are separated into two areas, the family the zone, which is closer to the main gate, and the non-family zone which is a mixed bag depending on what weekend you go closer to the festival area. This place gets pretty rowdy, and they are up late. If you intend to camp, this is the social area where a lot of things go. If you want a more relaxed, in civil area, stick to the family zone ( I don't). Highly recommend arriving early on the Friday before you're going in, as the camping area is first come first serve. We go in a pretty big group so we try to stake out enough space for all of our people. It's quite an experience, we really enjoy all of the people working there in character. They do a great job, and make it a great experience! Whether you're there with the family out for drinking or interested in shows and merchandise, there's something for everybody here. And the amount of different kinds of food is crazy.

    As a group familiar with the SoCal Ren Faire (go every year), we were very pleasantly surprised…read more The acreage is expansive, the shops are built into structures making it feel more realistic (as well as provides AC), the amount of shows is insane, the options for food and drink are fantastic, and the shops are numerous. We spent Saturday and Sunday there and don't think we saw even half of everything. We paid the extra for the Kings Feast and agreed we'd do it again in a heartbeat. It was an all you can eat and drink lunch with multiple courses and a hilarious musical show that emphasized including the audience. We went to several shows, comedy, musical, jousting, and fire show and enjoyed all of them, ESPECIALLY the fire show. Get there EARLY though as it filled up fast, even a half hour before the show. Prices, for us, we're about the same or slightly cheaper than SoCal so we weren't shocked at any price tags. I can imagine prices would likely be a little bit of a shocker for locals though. The only thing we didn't see much of a selection for was more ornate leather work. A friend was looking for carved or stamped bracers and couldn't find any. There were bracers, just very simple. Once we noticed that, we saw that was the case for just about all leather work.

    This was my first time coming to the Greek Festival. I was excited to try it when I saw all the…read morebanners attached to the gates promoting it as I drove along Montrose the past few weeks. I paid $10 at the entrance and got a wristband. Not everyone was given one. My friend came a few minutes after me and didn't have one. You can pay there in cash or card or do a $20 dinner plate, pastry box and ticket combo online. It was very crowded, but the lines for food like the dinner plate, souvlaki, and pastries moved quickly. The same for beverages like the Greek coffee, wine, water, tea and lemonade. Honestly, the food was just ok, and it was overpriced. For $15, you get one large skewer with meat and onions. It's $2 for one pita bread that was dry and had no flavor. It was another $2 for a small container of tzatziki sauce. I thought the beef wasn't marinated as well as other Mediterranean chains like Niko Nikos or restaurants. It was mostly tender but lacked flavor. The tiropita and spanakopita were $3 each. I thought the tiropita (puff cheese pastry) tasted bitter. I ate half of it. My favorite was the spanakopita. For desserts, it was also $3 each, and I got the baklava and kourambiedes. Both were good but not worth $3 for one tiny piece. The kourambiedes is similar to the snowball cookies or Italian wedding cookies. That was my favorite pastry. My friend had the $20 plate that included the pastitsio, a tiny keftedes (Greek meatball) cut in half, one dolmades that was more meat forward than rice, and kind of soggy tiropita and spanakopita because it was enclosed in a styrofoam container while hot. Bummer. There's a lot of tall standing tables, tables and chairs along the closed streets, and some covered table and chair areas. Some people chose to sit in the grass or steps, wherever they could find a space. We found a space at the end of one of the tables. People seemed happy and were with friends or family. We missed the shows but saw people dressed in traditional attire. The gift shop was fairly big with religious Greek Orthodox imagery, handmade rugs, handmade pottery, jewelry, olive oil, and other Greek herbs, figs and knickknacks from Agora. There were a ton of olive trees for $35, and I saw many people walking around with one. I wanted one and was on the fence, but my friend convinced me, so I took the time to look for a nice one. I like how they gave paper instructions on olive tree care. Now I'm in search for a rustic pot. I'm glad I finally got to check out the festival but wish the food was better and not overpriced. I would come back with friends but probably eat before and just order a few things like the spanakopita and kourambiedes and see a show.

    Greek fest is back! My favorite time of year…read more Something about bottles of wine + meat skewers really bringing people together. Honestly my favorite thing about this festival is the show. It's a must see. They have different showtimes so don't miss it. Parking is always a pain, it's montrose. We found a spot a few blocks away and trekked over. It's a $5 entry fee this year and they take card/cash ;) Had the usual suspects for food/dessert like every year. Get one of everything it's all so good. Lines are long as hellllll but work in a group system and you should be golden. It was a little warmer last night than I'd like for an October evening but we had lots of fun and way too much wine :)

    We came Saturday at 3p- the last day- however, it's open until 10p. It's posted as $10 entry fee…read morebut we were charged $11.50/each. Which was fine, it's a fundraiser- just weird to post one price then go to check out on Eventbright and it's $3/more. While I'm glad they apparently had a profitable weekend- they were sold out of so much by 3p on Saturday, it was really disappointing. There were no more Greek pastries - at all. No white wines left. No Greek beer. Just sweet red wine and Budweiser products. And every food stand had "sold out" over many of the items we came for. The pork souvlaki was one item they had plenty of and it was excellent. We would love to have tried more- it was sold out. Couldn't even get a Greek Salad. The market did have some great vendors selling some beautiful and hand crafted items. Unfortunately, there was a lot of junk too. People buying bulk evil eye glass ornaments on Amazon and selling them at a 1000% mark-up. We may try again on Thursday or Friday next year but I do not recommend coming on Saturday. Seems they should reduce the entry fee if by Saturday afternoon you're down to pork skewers and crappy (non-Greek) pizzas. Opa.

    This was my first time taking part in Houston Greek Fest but I have been to the original festival…read moreon Montrose. The festival is held at the Greek Church in the Energy Corridor and the entrance fee is only $3. Started things out by heading to the beverage area and I was happy to see they had Greek beer. The festival on Montrose only had Bud Light, Budweiser, etc. which was an outrage. It's a Greek festival come on! They also have margaritas spiked with a splash of uzo (Greek hard liquor) which is pretty hilarious. I didn't dare take the plunge. Then proceeded to stuff my face with gyros, tyropita (puff pastry with cheese), and loudamedes (I hope I spelled that right- hot donuts sprinkled with powdered sugar and honey). All the food was amazing and they have some seating under tents which help's with the Houston heat. They had some performers doing traditional Greek dances which was nothing spectacular but a cool cultural thing to see. Had to knock off one star because the souvlaki (beef on a stick) was $8 which is too expensive. I'm a big fan of souvlaki so I was hoping they had a better deal on that. I very well might be making this a yearly thing.
