Drop of the Creator is a must visit spot for happy hour, book clubs, meetings, social events,…read morecatching up with friends, or simply supporting a local business. I've visited this hidden gem twice. The first time, I was passing by and decided to stop in because I wanted to see exactly what it was all about. My second visit was for an event hosted there, "Pride & Progress". During my first visit, I took the opportunity to try a flight of their in house spirits, including tequila, whiskey, vodka, and gin. They were all great on their own and also worked well in cocktails. I also tried a flight of beers, but unfortunately, they all tasted flat, which was disappointing considering how great the other beverages were. The service during my first visit was amazing. My experience during the second visit wasn't quite as pleasant, but I assumed the difference may have been due to the event taking place and the staff being overwhelmed. Drop of the Creator may look small from the outside, but once you step inside, it's spacious, bright, sophisticated, and beautiful. There are plenty of different areas to gather, making it a great spot for a variety of occasions. I haven't had the opportunity to try their food yet, but I'm definitely looking forward to giving it a try on my next visit. I've already recommended Drop of the Creator to many friends, family members, and colleagues because I genuinely think it's a great local spot that more people should experience.

We've been working on getting out here for months! Located in the heart of the Meyerland area, you…read morewouldn't know it existed unless someone told you. Which someone obviously did. A bunch of friends that are local, to be precise. We came out on a Wednesday, which is trivia night. Parking was easy at the time. We arrived, but could get a bit iffy during a rush. The interior is well decorated. The lounge looks very comfortable. We were in the back bar area where the events take place. The bar tenders were really efficient, we didn't wait long for anything. We did t play trivia, but wish we had. The host was hilarious, and the trivia topics were broad. We will definitely be back for this again. Drinks were very good. Average modern day pricing at $12-$15 a drink. Food was also very good, though a little pricey at $18/ 12"pizza. I'm not hating on quality, just a tough bill to swallow. Not sure if there's a happy hour but would totally show up for that. They have their own brand of liquors, and also brew their own beers. Like most breweries in the South, the have lighter fair. No stouts, or the like. The heaviest they make are likely the larger or amber. They have a red as well. I stuck to liquor this trip, but will update with a beer review. Overall great spot, a little pricey but you're also getting good things in a chill area instead of the heights midtown, Montrose, or some other congested inconvenient area (for us outer-loopers).

Also, during the night, I began to notice the various random pieces of art on the bar shelves and on the walls, which along with some dim lighting, added great character to the place. It's a cozy bar that serves beer, wine, and coffee, so we shared 1-2 bottles of wine (the Bordeaux and Sangiovese) and both were really good. I came with coworkers and another friend, and we took up two of their three tables inside. Luckily, they have some bar seating too, so other guests were able to use those. They had live jazz here this past weekend (which they do every other Sunday), and the band produced an enjoyable performance throughout the night. But the music was really loud, like club volume, so it was hard to have conversations in there... but maybe it's better so people can focus on the music!?! Either way, this was a really laid back spot, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Overall, we had a great experience.

They are definitely losing out on some potential business with the hours of operation. Hopefully they are able to grow to expand hours, get some refrigeration for cold items, and carry some more craft beer/cider/seltzer items

I couldn't believe Lulu Liquor was not on Yelp. This liquor store has been here for decades that I…read moreknow of. It has lots of spirits and many levels of selection. I can tell you just rum variety, it exceeded selection at Spec's. I remember there was another Lulu Liquor on Beechnut. It closed and sold and renamed to King Liquor. I believe this location at Bellaire is the original Lulu Liquor. Other than wines and spirits, they have soda, face covering, gaming machines, snacks, cigarettes, electronics accessories, knifes in locked case, and stuff you normally don't see at a liquor store. To me, it's like a bazaar inside. The store location is at the end of this busy strip mall next to the junky Valero gas station. There are lots of homeless people and transients at the corner of Bellaire and Fondren. It's safer to shop during bright daylight or get in and out of your vehicle as fast as possible.

I got a large boba milk tea for less than six dollars and the quality is one of the best I've ever seen. The boba was warm at the bottom and the milk tea was cold and sweet making the perfect contrast. I had such a hard time picking out my drink, because there were so many options. Not to mention, there was a large list of mouthwatering desserts that would go perfectly with any drink. By far this place had some of the most variety I'd ever seen in a boba place. From milk teas to dirty lattes, there were so many things to choose from. The seating was really cute as well. There were some booths, some tables and chairs, and some window seating as well. It was very well organized and not too crowded. There were two claw machines in the back but one of them seemed to not be working. There were many portraits and paintings of the sweets and drinks that kept tempting me even more. The service was super kind. There was a large crowd of people in front of us ordering at the tablet, so one of the employees offered to take our order in person to cut down the wait. He also gave us access to the restroom before we ordered, despite their policy! Overall, this was one of the best boba experiences I've pever had and I totally recommend stopping by!
