Located in front of Hobby gates 28 - 32, this walk-up Cocktail and Small Bites is just what you…read moreneed to burn an hour or so before your flight. At first glance it looks to be just beer, but never fear, they have a great selection of Wine and Spirits for your needs. I settled on a 9oz Pinot Noir, Sea Sun by Caymus which was delicious! Now... yes, the airport prices were in full swing because the 9oz set me back $32 w/tax!!! It was worth it tho... I gotta find that bottle when I get home. Lol

Dark setting, punk rock music, billiards and darts. Drinks are not expensive. This is definitely not a sports bar! This would be a good place to wait for a delayed plane, cheap place for you and friends to drink and laugh. Certainly a dive bar feel. You get the munchies I would order something, but I'm not coming here to eat dinner. If I'm stuck at the doubletree airport I would visit here again for a beer.

December 15, 2021…read more Came in from Galveston to go to the Houston Botanical Garden a few blocks away and had time to kill so we stopped at the local bar in the barrio. And, I use that word because I know very little (por quito) Spanish and, this part of town is predominantly Hispanic and this bar reflects that culture in the sense of it's patrons, it's decor, murals that support their heritage and their city, Houston, etc, definitely an ole school dive. It sold pork skins and kettle chips with many (every kind) of hot sauce you could think of to top them. Yes! It has TV, music and 1 pool table They have steak night on Thursdays that the owner cooks out back They sell only beer and wine but you may be able to bring your own bottle because I saw set ups but, I dunno. Nice people. Laid back. Support local

Axelrad is one of those spots that show up on every must visit in Houston list. After visiting a…read morefew times I can see why. 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.

Social Beer Garden just doesn't do it for me. I've been once or twice years ago and recently…read moredecided to give it another try, hoping for a different experience, but unfortunately I still left unimpressed. To start out, the concept feels like a blend of accents from other popular bars in the area - the hammock chairs from Axelrad, the Adirondack chairs from Truck Yard, and the string light back patio from 8th Wonder. This blend makes it hard to give the bar a true identity. While they do have a large selection of beers on tap, their cocktail menu leaves me feeling lost. I appreciate the attempt to create unique flavor combinations but the options are just...confusing. For example, mezcal with citrus and prickly pear, or a highball with black currant, tequila and apricot. I'm holding on for dear life with all of these ingredients! Going along for the adventure, I tried their pickle cocktail that was on the menu and it was honestly, terrible. While they do have a happy hour that goes until 8pm, the service this last visit just wasn't the best. The server who helped me told me it was his second day and was clearly struggling to keep up with the cocktail combinations, referencing his phone many times while preparing the drink. I ended up not liking this drink and brought it back to the bar with just one sip gone and rather than offering to make me another drink, they kept it on my bill. Ok, whatever. That being said, just before this happened, the couple in front of me went to pay for their bill, prepared drinks in hand, at 8:02pm and the bartender refused to honor the happy hour prices, just two minutes past the official end time. With these two instances, it seems like the priority is maximizing every dollar of profit rather than investing in the customer experience. Given the number of other original concepts in the area, I would pass.

Right under my nose, minutes from my house in South Houston. This is what happens when you think…read moreyou're to good for the hood. CHUTZPA! It could be defined as a dive bar, but we have had and have many of those in South Houston. People have always driven into this small city for night scene, remember the clubs: Hallaballoos and Rockys? Now-a-days we have many other places where locals hang out. The eclectic indoor area is spacious, they have a stage, and pool tables. The outdoors in front has a small raspa eatery feel to it, but a bigger, relaxed, and more gentrified area in the back. Are you a homebody? If you're a gamer or "I don't like people" type, then no worries come pick up your drinks to-go via the drive thru. They have a heavy hand. The menu has everything that tickles MY alcoholic fancy. Mixed drinks, Jello shots, stiff drinks. I felt like I was in EADO, come on my peeps, you'll enjoy this out of the way, yet in the way bar (club in our small town). I can really chill at this spot frequently and I don't say that about any spot!

07.30.26 - Stopped by here with my gf for breakfast this morning, before her flight. Construction…read morein the area is heavy, and quite a bit of traffic, parking was packed, yet we did find a spot close to the door. Service has changed since last I have been here many years ago. In the past they would bring out a bread basket, as a free appetizer like how some mexican restaurants bring out chips and salsa, however, they dont seem to do that here anymore. Service at the table was mediocre, our waitress took our drink order and on the way over, the waitress was spilling the drinks over the floor on the way to our table. After our waitress took our order, my gf did not get the mayo on the side as she had asked, and after we received our food, our waitress never came around to check on us, didn't refill our drinks or anything. The place was very loud, louder than visiting waffle house. I was trying to have a conversation with my gf sitting just across the table from one another, and we were having to literally yell at one another just to hear what each other were saying. My gf did state that the sandwich she ordered was a big sandwich, and was more than she could finish. Once we were ready to go, our waitress still hadn't been around to check on us. So I had to flag down someone else, to get us some to go boxes, and our check. Low and behold, when I was ready to checkout, the waitress appears out of nowhere, after all this time, I'm guessing because she thought she was going to get a good tip. I'm sorry, waitstaff only get a great tip from me, once and if they perform a great job duty, and this was not the case in this matter. Maybe, better luck next time, maybe Papas needs to hire better waitstaff worth hiring and keeping.
