    Shot, shot, shot!!!
    Wilnesa C.

    So listen...I love a place that provides parking and plenty of it! Drove up and was immediately able to park literally a few steps from the entrance. Crawfish seems to be my go-to choice these days, so I'm always looking for a place that provides some deliciously seasoned crawfish. This place fits the bill! They partner with this business called "Hot & Buttered" that has some of the best crawfish and fixings in town. Just writing about it is making my mouth water. Sooo good! Don't just take my word for it though. Go see for yourself! Now it did take a lil minute to be ready, but in all fairness, they had a pretty decent amount of orders ahead of mine. Other than that, the drinks here are good, strong, and well priced. The vibe is chill and laid paid. Just don't sit next to a group of guys who've had too much to drink and get annoyed like I did. Check this place out!

    I found this place on accident. I was planning to go to the seafood boil place next door but after seeing the tiki huts with swings and all the people having a good time inside tikilas I had to stop by. It was a Sunday night and the astros were playing so there were groups watching the game and the bar had drink specials. I got the ocean water frozen which was on special for the game for $6 or $7. It was so tasty but very sugary. Also got a shot of patron for $11. We sat at the bar and the Dj played a wide range of music we enjoyed and danced to. The bartenders were very friendly and attentive. They have water stations for humans and dogs so you don't have to wait for a bartender for that. Indoor and outdoor seating and can enjoy the food from the seafood place (hot and buttered) or the taco truck outside. I'll be back! PS: they have a small parking lot (free) that was almost full when I arrived.

    This place has the greatest theme. Made me feel like I was in a far-off oasis even though it was cold! They lit the torches and fire pits, which made things more comfortable. Idk what happened that day it seemed as if the bar tender may have been overwhelmed that day. She did make some bangin tiki torches tho! There was no food but they have pop ups that sell different foods throughout the week... maybe an excuse to come back and try other things there while playing Jenga or cornhole! Just a quick tip they added gratuity to the tab automatically

    I see some 1 star reviews here and while that sucks, I can at least say my experience here was 5 stars! I believe Blake was our bartender. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to take too many pics, but I definitely enjoyed the vibe and drinks (on a late Sunday afternoon). Upon walking in, there are a few food trucks outside and the outdoor area was charming! There's tiki hut style seating and swings. You can order from the lil window outside. It was too warm so we went inside. I didn't think it was a sit-down establishment... So my friend and I just went straight to the bar and ordered drinks. Found ourselves a booth and sat. There were promo gals passing out refreshing infused vodka and everyone was friendly. If I needed another drink, I just went to the bar, no big deal. It's a bar/lounge, not full service restaurant. I see that there's a strict dress code policy and no Crocs allowed (per previous reviews). Not sure about the reasoning behind that, but I came very casual and had Vans on. A good chill place for cocktails especially once the weather gets cooler outside.

    Great staff, incredible decor, bomb crawfish and drinks... but the bees are a little bothersome.

    Frozen Mojito was a yummy quencher for a hot summer day.

Soon, we ordered another round of drinks but all switched up what we ordered to try something new. These drinks were great as well!

Drink: 4/5 Big Moe: it was a combination of sweet and tart but would get it again. Ambiance: 5/5 Relaxed and welcoming, just a nice laid back spot to come hang with friends for a nightcap or to kick off the festivities. You'll find yourself having a good time regardless.

Reviews stated that they offer $10 Carajillos starting at 10pm and both Yelp and Google Maps showed them open until midnight. We showed up just a couple of minutes past 10pm to find active construction underway inside. There was a gentleman working on the flooring, furniture being disassembled and lots of construction equipment outside. The seeming owner or manager reassured us to come in, however as soon as we took a seat we learned that they closed at 10pm. Ironically there was a young man assembling a large sign that states "open until 10pm" to prop outside. The bartender offered to make us a drink and since we had driven here just for this spot (I would call it a coffee shop and not really a bar), we agreed. The Carajillos were $15 and sadly, batched. Disappointing for a cocktail with only about two ingredients. We asked if they could add an orange peel garnish but unfortunately they were out. Definitely a one and done. Will not be back.

The bar tender was very friendly and makes a heck of a drink but as the evening progressed and more people arrived at the Cafe the service became extremely slowwww. This is also why tables weren't cleaned quickly. There needs to be atleast 2 personnel there. Now as stated the bevs were great and they had a lot of unique cocktails I'd like to try but I didn't want to have to wait all night so we left! Will I be back though?? Absolutely!

The drinks weren't bad and I think they have a nice selection of cocktails to choose from. The rundown for bingo: It was supposed to start at 7pm, but I don't think we started until almost 7:30. Not sure if that's normal or if it was just that night. They'll make an announcement for you to go grab a bingo board from designated spots and it was quite a fight to get a board, which is one per person. I think we played a total of 5-6 rounds with breaks in between and each round is a different goal (e.g. regular bingo, making an X, blackout, etc) with a different prize and the prizes gradually get bigger. Since the tables were all full, lots of people were either sitting around the stage, or on the turf, or standing on the back patio. Parking was super crowded. They have a lot which was definitely filled so I had to resort to street/neighborhood parking. They made announcements that if you park at the establishment next door you WILL get towed (they had tow trucks coming in the whole night I feel)

Inside the actual Annex there was standard bar seating as well as a few long tables. I really liked the decor - the bottles of liquor along the back of the bar created a nice focal point, and the low lighting combined with wood tones really set the tone. They have a vast selection of cocktails separated by flavors (smoky, sweet, tropical, etc.). We ultimately had three rounds and all of the drinks were quite good. The bartenders were great, they whipped the drinks up quickly and were friendly. Overall I had a great time at Worcester's Annex - definitely a place I would return to next time I'm in Houston.
