Vibes are chill, beer selection is vast, they have some nice frozen drinks and cocktails as well. There's almost always some sort of event going on so it's a nice place to just stop by and check out if you have some time to chill. I've liked that there are random events and they can be hit or miss. Sometimes there's interesting musical guests, sometimes there are various vendors, sometimes there's a movie night. Regardless, I know I have a pretty good time and will be treated kindly by all the staff.

There are booths next to the window and a pool table in the corner on the other side. They have a booth to order tacos from too. If you go out the door behind the bar, you can access the outdoor patio, which has a few tables and a large area with comfy looking red couches. Going up the stairs by the front entrance, you gain access to a second bar, a big circular area with seating around it, a few more tables, and an outdoor balcony. Now that I think about it, this place has it all. I tried one of their daiquiris which was poured with a heavy hand. Bartenders and staff were friendly. Parking is the only challenge here. There is street parking all along the street, but you may have to go further down on a busy night.

Drink prices were fairly cheap, especially for Houston (select beers ranging from $3-6). During my first visit on a Saturday, they had a dj playing lively music at the upstairs bar.

We sat in the patio, which I love because of the atrium-style windows. And, even though it's sweltering summer, they had powerful fans blowing, so it was actually quite cold out there. Loved it! Service was welcoming, friendly, and very attentive. We all enjoyed cocktails. As for the food, the reactions were mixed. I absolutely loved the shishito peppers and French fries. Others at the table said their pizzas were "just okay " and even left a few pieces, opting to not take them home. The burger was also nothing special, but not bad either. We like this place enough to come back for the aesthetic and the casual yet upscale vibe.

Luckily our server was able to move us to the covered outdoor seating after a little while which was a little better. The covered patio has fans. However, bonus for sitting outside is that they're having a promo during HRW where happy hour drink specials are going on all day. The food and drinks were all yummy though. We got the yum yum fries for the table to share. I ordered the duck duck shroom pizza and the aperol spritz. The portions of everyone's food were huge so I'd say a good bang for your buck. We experienced multiple servers with our table switch and they were all nice and helpful.

Getting seated was a little chaotic. Indoor seating was pretty limited and not managed well. We end up sitting on the patio (still pretty toasty around sunset time). The giant pretzel we ordered for appetizer was excellent, highlight of the meal. The sourdough pizzas were pretty thin, overall I'd give the pizzas a 3/5. Of the 4 pizzas we tried, my personal ranking: 1. Spicy Goat 2. Duck Duck Shroom 3. Heirloom Margherita 4. Sweet & Spicy Pepperoni. Service was also disorganized and a little slow. I'd come back if I'm craving that pretzel.

Despite the result, the Moroccan supporters were nothing but class. Herb is an absolute legend.

The beer, the food, the team, the atmosphere, and the hospitality (even in the Texas heat) were all exceptional. Thank you, Herb!

Brewery #397 Under…read morethe Radar is a very small neighborhood style brewery. Lots of people just cycling and walking up to get a pint. I got my usual flight and for a small brewery, they had a solid sized selection of 14 different styles. I got a Hazy IPA, a Kolsch, a stout and a rice lager. The Hazy Town was my favorite, but I really liked the Koln Kolsch too. They also had a refrigerator for soft drinks and a few different nonalcoholic which was great for my buddy who no longer drinks. Most of the seating is outside but most of the seats are in the shade. The beertender (is that a word...it should be) was very friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely be a regular if I lived nearby.

And if you don't drink beer they offer a few nonalcoholic options. We picked four beers to try The Chosen Family (Pils), Unsupervised Dads (West Coast Pils), Beauhaus (Hefeweizen), and Saguaro (Saison) which were ALL bold, crisp, aromatic and refreshing. The ambiance of this brewery was simple and cozy, with both indoor and outdoor seating available. Dog friendly and there were families there including children as well. Parking is limited, but there is street parking on the surrounding side streets. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable of the beers, and very welcoming, making the experience even more enjoyable. While the brewery doesn't serve food, there was a Polish hot dog vendor outside grilling fresh sausages, which was a great bonus. If you're in the area and have the time, this brewery is definitely worth a visit and 5 stars.

The interior is dimly lit with a variety of interesting pieces of decor. One thing that I love is this used to be an old bank, and the location has gone through a handful of owners and bars, but the old bank vault still remains, and is even an area where you can play games and sit and enjoy your beverages They have board games, a lane for darts. There's also a popcorn cart in the middle of the bar with complimentary popcorn The staff is fairly pleasant and efficient. The drinks were fine. The ambiance just wasn't my thing. It was fairly dark and the bar, darts area, and a couple other spots just felt crowded and congested. This is also a Rice Owls bar, and many of the clientele are rice students or alumni, and when we went it was very "bro-y" for lack of a better term Come tips: If you can, get reservations for the speakeasy that is located directly above the Owl Bar. Much better vibes, drinks, and service Cheers!!

They looked up bars and suggested this spot. I had never heard of it but rolling up, I recognized it as where Kelvin Arms used to be. It was a cool spot back in the day and still a cool spot now. It shares a lot with other businesses and parking wasn't an issue when we went during the day. Inside is dark with an old bar feel to it. I believe this used to be an old bank and the original vault is still there. You can go in there and chill in a lounge like atmosphere. We ordered drinks and sat out on the spacious patio. I started off with an Old Fashioned. It was strong but tasty. What I didn't like was the used of regular ice as opposed to a proper, large ice cube. We then switched to espresso martinis which was done very well here. Overall, this is a solid spot in the Rice Village area. I'd come back if in the area.
