I've been coming to NextDoor Bar & Lounge for years, and seeing the recent renovation completely…read moretransformed the space in the best way possible. I was impressed when I walked in. They managed to keep the same relaxed neighborhood vibe people love while giving it a much more modern, polished, and upscale feel. The updated design, lighting, TVs and overall atmosphere look incredible and make the space feel fresh without losing its personality. They still have the spinning drink wheel! The outdoor seating especially feels elevated now and makes for the perfect Houston brunch spot or night out. One of the best parts about NextDoor is that it's connected to Hungry's, which means you get full access to their menu while enjoying the lounge atmosphere. Being able to order everything from cocktails and appetizers to full meals while at a bar is a game changer. The food is consistently good, the drinks are strong (especially the frozen options) well-made, and everything comes out quickly. What keeps me coming back year after year is the consistency. The staff has always been welcoming and attentive, the crowd is chill, and it never feels overly pretentious or chaotic. It's one of those rare spots that works for everything, whether it's happy hour after work, date night, catching up with friends over drinks on the patio or a solo adventure. Love seeing a longtime Houston favorite continue to evolve while still delivering the same great experience that's kept me coming back for years. Definitely one of my go-to spots on Memorial Drive. My only suggestion is to tell the younger staff members to be conscious of their conversations while guest are dining nearby. I love people watching but I heard a lot of things. It appears Hungry's uses the bar area like a break/training room or to do other tasks like rolling utensils in napkins.

We stopped in here for a quick drink before a birthday dinner on a whim. And I'm glad we did! For…read morepart of time, we were the only ones there but our bartender Rosa made it fabulous! I can't say enough great things about Rosa. They had a Galentine's special menu and I ordered their version of the French 75 while my partner ordered a Long Island. She was personable, funny, and really made you feel like you're among friends catching up. The owner needs to put her recipe on the menu. She gave us a sample of what she created; it was a tequila based with hibiscus. It was smooth and we suggested she could add some jalapeño to spice it up. She served it with a tajin rim. Chef's kiss! If you want a place where to you can chill and talk amongst friends, definitely check this place out!

Interesting pub with, what seems to be, a heavy locals gathering. It's a very small but cozy bar…read more They had karaoke the night I ventured in for a quick drink. The service was good, and the prices are decent. They have a small patio right outside the front door. Parking is very convenient. I could see my car from the inside of the establishment. I would definitely return if I happen to be in the area again. I like small places with a good air.

My organization held an event here recently - I'd never been before so I had no idea what to…read moreexpect. The spot is actually really big. There's a split - one side is seating and a dance floor type atmosphere and the other side is more set up to have an event because there is a stage. Great ambiance, lighting and everything. The food is GOODT. We got the boudin rolls, sliders and fries for the group, all very good. And the DRANKS, not drinks are good and SKRONG for a very nice price. I don't know what the regular side is like but we definitely had a great time for our event and it's a definite return to spot for us if we hold anything in the future.

Came to Foxtrap for Valentine's Day with my boo and the vibe had potential, but the experience was…read morea bit of a mixed bag. We were greeted immediately by the host and seated right away--honestly, that was the smoothest and best service we received all night. After that... things slowed down a lot. It took forever for our waitress to come to the table. I tried to give grace since it was Valentine's Day, but the place wasn't even crowded, so the delay was confusing. Now let's talk about the lavender lemon drop--because when it finally arrived? Whew. Delicious. Smooth, flavorful, and dangerously sneaky. I genuinely couldn't taste the alcohol, which is both a compliment and a warning . The wait time for the drink was long, but the payoff was there. For food, we ordered the Trap Trio (egg rolls, chicken sliders, and wings). Everything tasted good, though we asked for grilled chicken sliders and received fried instead. Not a dealbreaker, but worth noting. Still enjoyable overall. I also had the shrimp Caesar salad. The shrimp were well-seasoned and not rubbery (thankfully), but the salad itself didn't really stand out--just okay, nothing memorable. Overall, Foxtrap is a nice vibe spot with good drinks and decent food. I really hope the service improves and that the waitstaff receives more consistent training, because with better service, this place could truly shine.

After…read morehaving two white claws, engaging in conversation with other patrons and Cathy the bartender - Cathy came over and made an inappropriate comment regarding my friend talking on the phone. She said that we were "disturbing" a group of men who were on the opposite side of the establishment as us. I proceeded to ask patrons if they were bothered by my friend talking on the phone and they all answered no and said if we were not welcomed here they weren't either. Cathy proceeded to make distasteful comments under her breath and to other patrons in the bar. As paying customers I feel the situation could have been handled differently. Cathy had been joking, laughing, and chatting with us during our 2 hour visit and could have easily came over and politely asked us to turn down the volume and we would have obliged. Professionalism is clearly at the bottom of her skill list.

The food is very good - a mix of pub fare and authentic Irish to match the atmosphere. We particularly love the cheese curds, potato skins and loaded baked potato soup, but the shepherds pie, corned beef and cabbage, and fall off the bone lamb shank are just as good. The true surprise is the pizza - by far the best in Houston! They recently brought in darts and pool tables, and regularly host trivia and karaoke! Rarely do you find a place that feels like home, but the staff is wonderful and welcoming and the vibes are right. We can't recommend it enough!
