    Pens

    Love me a good stationary store! Huge variety of pens and a good price range too. They also had a large section of notebooks and sketch pads as well again in the large price range. It was also nice you could test items out on paper before committing. There were some super cute stickers and planners there too. Wanted to buy so much haha.

    Some options I was considering but didn't get. On my to-buy list

    This place is heaven for all pen and paper enthusiasts! There was so much to look at: stationery, notebooks, stickers, inks, fountain pens, pencils, EVERYTHING! The guys there were amazing! So helpful and knowledgeable and great at letting me try out literally every single pen I saw LOL we don't have pen shops like this in Miami so this was a dream come true to try out pens that I've only ever been able to see online (Goulet Pens I see you)! They have a large variety of pens from high to low end and an entire wall of inks along with an ink book with all color switches Left the store with a few bottles of ink, a beautiful Leonardo fountain pen and some recs for my next purchase. Would HIGHLY recommend! This is my official go-to fountain pen store whenever I visit Houston.

    WOW! Talk about a Houston gem!! I am sad I didn't know about Dromgoole's sooner. I found this store looking online for a Lamy Fountain pen. The customer service is exceptional! The gentleman who helped me was so patient in explaining everything I possibly needed to know about my purchase. He was extremely knowledgeable and didn't make me feel rushed at all. After answering all my questions and making my choice, I was able to have my pen giftwrapped. *It's very rare to find stores that offer this service these days* They even have a great selection of Papyrus cards in store! Overall, I am very satisfied with my entire experience with Dromgoole's and will absolutely be back. I have already suggested it to multiple friends. If you are ever in need of a gift, or want to treat yourself, a Pen is a lovely choice! Thank you Dromgoole family!!

    If you are even remotely a writing enthusiast, Dromgoole's is a must-visit! I'll admit, I was intimidated at first. I thought I would be judged for just wearing shorts and a Batman shirt, but the staff were beyond helpful. Every single person asked if I needed help and they are knowledgeable about EVERYTHING there. Gabriel, a gentleman who works "around the corner" from there and is a two-year hobbyist of the craft ended up being my guru and was an absolute well of inspiration, passion, and information. They might not have exactly what strikes your fancy when you're looking through their swatches, but they can all immediately recommend similar products off the top of their head. Genuinely, an amazing group of passionate and professional people - you're in good hands with Dromgoole's. I'll be back! The Sailor Nekoyanagi was on back order but the second they have it we'll be in!

    Ask the Community - Dromgoole's Fine Writing Instruments

    Do you purchase pre-owned fountain pens? (Visconti, Montegrappa, etc)?

    They do.

    Is nib tuning a service you still offer?

    For minor tuning, smoothing, realigning of tines, etc. that's usually something we can do here. More major repairs or re-grinding require a nibmeister, and while our in-house nibmeister hasn't been able to come in since March, we can send off pens… 

    Do you offer pen repairs and pen nib tuning?

    Yes we do! Minor pen tune ups and nib adjustments can be done any day of the week and major pen repairs can be done on most Saturdays, when our Pen Doctor comes in!

    They have a variety of pens and ink, hard to get journals, and even a "pen doctor" in house now and then.

I love supporting the arts, and visiting the museum has become something of an annual tradition for me, especially during June and July. I usually go with friends or family, and it's always such a nice experience. I love the atmosphere. There's something about walking around, taking your time with the artwork, and just enjoying the space. I've also randomly met some of the greatest and most interesting people while we're all just there checking out the art. Whether you're really into art or just looking for something enjoyable to do in Houston, MFAH is absolutely worth visiting. It's one of those places that reminds me how much Houston has to offer.

Pricing for the museum is $24. There are several garages in the area to park at and parking is charged a hourly rate. Unfortunately I was short on time but was able to visit the Frida collection, Aztec civilization, and Islamic Art collections. All of the art work was unique. The Frida collection was extremely popular and that's where most of the museums visitors spent their time. Overall I really enjoyed my experience here and wish I had more time to explore. They do have several dining options at the museum including a Michelin star French restaurant, Le Jardinier. The menu looks great and looks like they had a lunch 2 course option there for $45.

One all-day ticket was a little over $30. I went midweek, it wasn't overly crowded despite being a Summer day. You can get your picture taken as you enter, the photos are available for purchase upon entering. I saved the samples on my phone, there's watermarks, but I'll make My experience of witnessing the collection of NASA astronaut suits, prototypes, and rockets at SCH will forever stay with me. I took a free tram tour to the astronaut training facility on the NASA campus and saw a few projects in development. Afterwards, I went to Rocket Park and observed the Saturn rocket. It's MASSIVE and incredibly impressive. I made my way back to SCH's main building and picked up a cold brew at Grounds Control a cute coffee shop inside a NASA food hall. Next, I saw a film called Moonwalkers inside SCH's large screening room. The room was filled with wall-to-wall light effects and imagery! Lastly, I bought loads of NASA merch like shirts, hats, magnets, and pins. The front lobby has incredible medallions, I bought one of each.

There were a handful of theatres for guests to sit in and experience various historical moments pertaining to space exploration. We only watched "Moon Walkers" narrated by Tom Hanks. Independence Plaza: A quick walk from the Space Center Museum. It is about 3-4 stories high with exhibits inside of it (air conditioned). A lot of the tram tours are a first come first served basis. We didn't go to all the tram stops (complimentary with your ticket), but we did stop at George W.S. Abbey Rocket Park Tour. It was cool to see! Parking: The parking is charged separately on top of the tickets.
