We drove from Houston to visit local family in Brenham and this used to be where we meet but not anymore unfortunately all thanks to the newley appointed manager Riley. We sat at the bar and watched the Astros game, had 5 beers in about 5 hours and when my wife FINALLY asked for another beer she was denied...Riley had said that she would no longer serve us as she saw signs of intoxication... I'm not sure what she saw ...maybe the talking with other patrons or the feeding of the jukebox, whatever she think she saw we are still in shock to say the least... After we paid our bill we left and our Uncle stood up for us and was also asked to leave. He thought he had built up a repour over the months with the staff but it seems things have changed.

I love this bar…read more Great place to meet friends. They host neat events (chicken shit bingo, anyone?) as well as some phenomenal musicians! Seating inside and out.

The wife and I were in Brenham for a day of checking out some antique shops. After some shopping…read moreand a bite at Must Be Heaven, I wanted to check out Brown Water. Upon entry, very surprised. That 1st smell of a good cigar bar is awesome. It's way bigger than it appeared from the street. I wondered into one of the two walk in humidors as the wife headed to the bar for a glass of wine. I selected a few Rocky Patels and then got me a rum n coke. I passed on lighting a stick up as I knew we wouldn't be there that long. Visited with the owner, who helped me select some of the sticks I selected. Nice guy. The wife and I had a good time. Next time I'll plan for a longer visit. Later.

The shopkeeper came out with a sandwich board and told the people that they had to move down the sidewalk so that he could put out his signage. He was not conducting business during the parade.

Hands down my favorite place to have a cocktail in Brenham! My 3 favorites, in this order, are:…read more 1. Lavender Lemonade Rose 2. Old Fashioned 3. Espresso Martini The second you walk into Floyd's, you are transported to swanky town! The vibe is out of this world! It's lounge-y. It's comfy. It makes you want to hang out and stay a while! And the back patio with the live music is just icing on the cake. Love the French bread loaf with salted butter and the small bites they offer, but if you want something more substantial, they've usually got a food truck with the BEST pizza in town. And the bartenders are some of the best in the business. They're not just servers - they're mixologists who love trying new things and getting it JUST right! Put the "pink door" on your next visit to Historic Downtown Brenham!

For a second there, I forgot where I was. Like whattt?! The decor is super cute. If I would have visited with a friend, we would have definitely taken tons of photos. I sat at the bar and met this guy who suggested a cocktail called "London Fog". I'm not a huge fan of gin, but I gave it a go and all I have to say is WOW! It was absolutely delicious. Went on to try a spicy margarita and dirty martini, and let's just say the bartender knew what he was doing. Koodos to Austin! So listen..a little birdie told me that this place doesn't get much traffic. Why? Idk, because if you haven't visited, you're truly missing out. If you happen to visit Brenham (Blue Bell Country), make sure you stop by and grab a cocktail.

Parking was great. That's always my number one concern anywhere but I forgot we are in the country…read moreso there's always extra land for parking. Here it is both paved and unpaved parking. Line was long but the ladies were patient in taking orders. Smaller orders came out fast and the pretzel was the best deal there. Easy to find tables inside and outside was a bit of a gamble because the sun was fierce but there was a nice breeze. Big kids play area in a field so far from the tables. 50% of the people were watching their kids which I was not impressed by. You don't get a vacation from parenting. Hot food from the food trailer took a bit to come out but the girl back there was working her butt off. The orders were coming in in large amounts because groups of people kept showing up. Overall a nice place and well maintained.

Brazos is one of these breweries. The beers are fun to try!! I genuinely looked forward to trying everything. I guess I've been to so many breweries, they start to run together and feel lackluster.

Story time: So my husband and I took my 4 kids in there...and yes, I know it's asking a lot from the waitstaff, and they are bound to be disruptive, but we persevere anyways! We were greeted by Sierra, who immediately found us a table that accommodated our Doona stroller, got the toddler a cup of water with a lid, told us the specials and what they offer for kids, brought my son a few LEGOS (she happened to have because she apparently has kids) and my daughters some fun cocktail umbrellas for their water, and took our order...all within the FIRST 5 MINUTES! Which is a big deal because these kids are impatient little gremlins sometimes! She was so attentive and patient and kind throughout our whole meal (which was so good!) that we never really felt stressed about the kids! The food was SO DELICIOUS that we didn't even have leftovers (a feat in itself with picky eaters), and we left feeling like we'd just made a beautiful memory eating as a family and ended the day on the perfect note. So Sierra, THANK YOU!
