Y'all - this tiny little bar has a delicious secret. If you visit before 7pm, they offer $7 single patty burgers with fries, or a $10 double patty burger with fries. We have zero photos because my brain was misfiring at how INCREDIBLE the food looked - PIPING HOT - melty, greasy (but not off-putting), cheesy, fries were crispy. Do not sleep on this place. I can't comment on the drinks - I don't really enjoy alcoholic beverages and they didn't have iced tea. The service was top notch - friendly and attentive but not overbearing. Ambiance is fun, colorful bar scene. read more

On my weekly walks through midtown, I got to watch Jethro's be built and come to life. First visit was a big HIT for me and I love finding time to come back. The vibes are immaculate! It's a little small inside and a small parking lot, but if you're lucky and can walk there, do! The quality of the drinks are really excellent and the burgers have been voted some of the best in town! I can't speak for them, but the drinks and the spot, are phenomenal. They have bingo nights, dj nights, and other themed events that keep the place packed out. Maybe once I try the burgers, it'll be 5 stars, but the smallll parking lot and lack of safe street parking keep me at 4. read more

This reminds me of a more upscale college bar with great cocktail specials and roomy booths! Apparently, dogs are welcome indoors, too. The patio is spacious and there's plenty of parking in the adjacent parking lot. The fact that they have happy hour on Saturdays until 7pm makes them an instant winner in my book -- the espresso martini was delightful and the frozen paloma was refreshing. The bartenders were attentive and nice, too! :) read more

I stopped here for a quick drink & bite before going elsewhere for the FIFA watch game. Had a beer and these ravioli as appetizer (reminded me of the Zios ones they used to have). Bartenders were nice and I loved the dark-grunge vibe on the inside. Will return soon read more

Stopped into this bar after brunch with my friends for my birthday. We had a great time. The vibe was great. The decorations inside are so nice and our bartender was phenomenal. It was my birthday, so the bartender asked what kind of shot I want to and my friend and I were like something fruity but cool. So he made up a drink that tasted like a starburst and also a cute little show by setting it on fire and sprinting. It was something that gave it a nice little toasted smell and taste. We liked it so much that the whole group ended up getting an order of them as well. We will definitely be stopping in again next time we're in the area. read more

Jethro’s Cocktail Lounge - Taking a round of shots with my ladies - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

We stopped into Jethro's Cocktail Lounge while we were out at the Vintage Community Market hosted by Faculty Club Never, and it ended up being one of those places you're so glad you randomly walked into. First, the vibe. It is warm, stylish, and very Montrose in the best way. It feels elevated but still relaxed enough to just sit, talk, and enjoy your time without feeling rushed. We came during happy hour and it was such a great deal. I ordered the Sweet Like Peach Tree, which was light, refreshing, and perfectly balanced with the peach and ginger. My husband got the Frozen Paloma and it was just as good, super smooth with the right citrus bite. We also shared the churros and they were honestly a must order. Warm, crispy, and paired with Nutella and caramel. What really made the experience stand out though was our bartender, Manny. He was incredibly welcoming from the moment we sat down, had such a great personality, and made the whole experience feel personal. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and that kind of service is hard to find. He also told us about their upcoming two year anniversary party on May 3rd with rotating live DJs, which sounds like it will be such a fun time. We will definitely be back. Between the drinks, the atmosphere, and the service, this place really gets it right. read more

Cool casual bar/ lounge/chill vibe. Dark, low light. Loud R&B music playing. Seating options are: Bar, bar high top, booth, couch & outdoor patio seating. Cocktails are unique and quite good. No smoke- loved the coconut in this. Actually a little sweet, a very tasty enjoyable cocktail. Yardy know - like a variation of a margarita. It's good. Well balanced. Not your dad's old fashion - it definitely tastes like an old fashion. The hibiscus is just an addition to the old fashion flavor profile. Matcha ma call it - would nvr have ordered this but someone bought it for me. I've never had matcha tea before so I can't compare but this drink was surprisingly just a tasty cocktail. I don't even like mint & I enjoyed the drink. I like the vibe of this spot. I popped in for pre-dinner drinks so I didn't eat. But the owner told me his smash burger was voted best in Houston. I'll have to come back & try it. Before 7pm, smash burger & fries are $7 everyday! read more

A fantastic, little neighborhood bar with free parking. Staff is welcoming and if you're lucky enough to get Manny at the bar he can mix up any cocktail you want... even the off menu classics! I had the HH chocolate old fashioned and then off menu Paper plane, loved them both. Tried the $7 burger & fries before 7p and... wow! Burger was well seasoned, great sauce, and the bun is excellent. The fries- hot, crisp, perfectly salted! This is a small bar, so be mindful. It's not another large, mega bar. The vibe is cozy, welcoming neighbor. I loved it and can't wait to come back! read more

Absolutely love the vibe, the hipster decor, the music and the drinks are phenomenal. Dropped in before valentines dinner and didn't want to leave. Their house Old Fashioned is a great twist to the classic cocktail. I'm a Mezcal fan and the two on the menu worked for me. The bartenders make you feel welcome and offer an explanation for anything you are contemplating. They have an inviting patio which offers a great open air experience. Parking might be a challenge if not lucky enough to find a spot on premise. Overall, Jethro's is worth going out of your way to experience. read more

Review #300! Jethro's gets the honor. A great neighborhood cocktail spot that's great for a date night or just a night out with friends. Parking is available in the small lot directly in front, the lot across the street, or along the surrounding streets. I've never had issues finding parking between these three options. Before 7pm every day, they offer a $7 special for burger and fries. It's a smashburger and is surprisingly decent for a $7 combo with fries, at a cocktail bar! I've told myself that I'm keeping this option in my back pocket for evenings that I feel too lazy to make my own food. Heck, that's even cheaper than fast food in today's world. The cocktails here are all great. The Cafe Con Ron is their version of an espresso martini and I've liked it. The Not Your Dad's Old Fashioned is their version of an OF with a bit of sweetness to it due to the whiskey being infused with hibiscus. Honestly not totally my jam so they were able to make me a Buffalo Trace old fashioned and I liked that a lot. The wine selection is also decent - on a night I wasn't feeling cocktails, I got a glass of their house red wine and had no complaints with it! The staff here has been friendly on all of my visits. Manny especially provides top notch service with a smile - I try to look for him to make my drinks whenever I come. Ask for him too - he's extremely nice! I have come here for Drag Bingo night (one Wednesday a month) and it is so much fun. Persephone is an excellent host and provides the best entertainment with prizes for the winners from the bar. Jethro's is a great spot to come chill with friends or a date over cocktails in a dark intimate setting. I'll surely be back often and while I love their $7 burger special, need to branch out one of these days to try other food items on their menu. read more

We came late on a Friday night, found street parking immediately, and were able to sit in a booth of our choice without waiting. I was surprised this place wasn't packed given all the recent social media hype about it, but wasn't mad about being able to hear friends across the table. There was a live dj that night, the drinks were made quickly at the bar, and I enjoyed the overall vibe. We got the No Smoke (smokiness added from the mezcal) and Not your dad's old fashioned (strong). I also appreciated the pricing. Specialty cocktails cost money to make but the recent spike in cocktail pricing when the output does not necessarily meet the input has been too damn high in Houston! So shoutout to Jethro's for understanding what market price means and delivering on it. Will be back! read more

Saw online that they were decorated for spooky season and couldn't wait to give it a try. Went for happy hour with coworkers and absolutely loved it! The decor was fab, the drinks were great, and the burger was deeeeelicious! I ordered the Sweet like Peach Tea and the Matcha-Ma-Call-It. Both so so good! Friend ordered the margarita and said it was nice and strong. We both ordered the $7 burgers before $7. The fries and burger were so good, I'm still thinking about them. The icing on the cake was the tarot card reader! We were about to leave when my friend pointed out the tarot card reader. Had an interesting $20 mini read. Great experience at Jethro's! read more

Happy Hour is so worth it!! Weekday Happy Hour from 4-6? Also, they have $7 burgers and fries before 7pm! We love the burgers.. they are so good and the service is FAST. We came on a Friday before 6pm and it wasn't crowded. Service in regards to drink was a bit slower, but the food came out quick. I probably could eat 2 burgers, but controlled myself. We brought our 6 week old and enjoyed a lovely dinner! Check them out!! Great vibes, indoor and outdoor seating and plenty of parking outside in their designated parking lot! read more

great happy hour. small plaza shared parking lot up front but plenty parking across the street lot. very good burger basket deal - $7 before 7pm. bartenders have always been kind. bar seating available, booths, high top tables, couch seating, and patio outdoor seating as well. chill spot. read more

So I came in on a Friday night and luckily got the last open seat, the bar was packed and old school hip hop was going. I loved it. The decor was Halloween themed and they even had a Halloween themed menu. I ordered a caipirinha and it was bad, it's as if the bartender forgot to muddle the lime or add lime juice and instead added water. I could also feel every granule of sugar. The bartender was a shorter Latin guy with his hat backwards with a beard. He was very nice, just the drink wasn't good in my opinion. I also ordered the burger that only came with Mayo, I added ketchup and mustard with no cheese. It came out quickly and was tasty and filling. I then ordered Not Your Dad's Old Fashion from a beautiful short African American women with long braids. I loved it, it was made really well. read more

Pretty nice spot, very quant and nice ambiance. Their happy hour is til 7, great cocktails and smashburger and fries for $7. The staff were pretty kind and constantly checking on patrons. Would highly recommend and will be back. Have a very nice indoor and outdoor space and we're also playing the playoffs on the TV read more

I can't say enough good things about this place. First of all the smash burger is really really good! The fries are great and their ranch is the best. The drinks are amazing. My favorite is the mi corazon I loveee mezcal! So if ur a mezcal lover this is the perfect drink. Happy hour prices you can't beat! The service is great and the ambiance is chill and moody. Great for happy hour. Parking is plentiful. read more

I have learned long ago, that preparation is key to a good event. So before we went to the C&I YEW (Yelp Elite Week), we hit up Jethro's for some food and libations. It was the right move, thanks to Justin T. Parking. It's a small lot, some assigned for specific businesses, but street parking all around make it easy. None of our folks had a difficult time finding a place. Facility. The have a god sized outdoor patio, and at 4/4:30, nobody had taken any spots. Inside, its a bit darker. Nice mood setting, and plenty of seating. God for an intimate gathering or a date night. Service. Our host was Felicia. She handled our group of around 10 with ease, and excellent service. Drinks and food came out fast, and were very good. There were others behind the bar managing the front end as well, but Felicia was our main point of contact. The goods GREAT! They have good happy hour specials. Some frozen, most on the rocks. I liked them all. Amongst the three I had I would rate them favorite to least: Tullamore Dew Irish Mule, Roku Gin Gimlet, Redemption Bourbon Chocolate Old Fashioned. During Happy hour they have a Smashburger and Fries for $7. The burger was good, and the fries were very good (Like McDonalds but not as expensive). Overall very good experience, and will definitely be back! read more

I went to HH and you have to try the cheeseburger and fries! It's $7 on HH and more than worth it. The best is toasted and buttered, burger smashed to perfection, and the pickles are fresh (more cucumber than pickles). Now I did have to rate a 4 instead of a 5 because the drinks were just Ok. They do allow children till 6. read more

Jethro's is such a cool spot to hang out. My friends and I came here after dinner in Montrose. Parking is a little annoying because majority is across the street in a fenced in area. The "lot" is literally just that with a grassy area. It can be hard to see what you're stepping on late nights, so use your phone flashlight. I love the indoor/outdoor concept as well as all the bowling decor. I come from a family of bowlers, so it was cool to see bowling pins and bowling ball lamps and trophies throughout. There's a couple TVs above the bar to watch the game. They were still doing college basketball at the time. The seating is intimate with the booths. It's darker inside than on the patio area. I would've loved to try some of their food, but we had just eaten. If you get there before 7 pm, they have a cool deal called "7 before 7" which includes a smashburger and fries. I enjoyed the mocktails which were a good price point of $10. I had the Watermelon Fresca and loved the fresh watermelon slice on top and tajin around the rim. The Perfect Tea was my favorite, though. I enjoyed the zero proof gin with the raspberry tea and lime juice. Overall, I would come back here with friends or a date night. I want those cheese curds!!! read more

Place was empty and chill very good to just stop in if it's not busy and grab some food or a drink. The burger was very fresh the only down part for me is this is probably the first smash burger I've had with way too many onions, layers of onions in between both patties and on top of the patties . I will probably order with no onions next time . Overall it was great . read more

Modern outdoorsy vibe + upbeat music + great burgers and drinks = Jethro's. I recently crossed this place off my Yelp list while catching up with a friend. The plan was to knock out a drink or two and move on to strolling down Montrose, but we ended up ordering burgers since we got hungry. That was the right move -- the chefs did a great job with the OKC smashburger ($12). They served me a well sized portion with a juicy patty and tasty crisp edges. I normally get annoyed at paying extra for fries ($4), but they gave me a large enough serving for 2 people. Get here before 7pm, and that $16 combo turns into a $7 special instead. What a bargain! I tried the matcha-ma-call-it (Tito's vodka base). Looks like it's only recently been added to the menu. I hate Tito's but love matcha, and the matcha did a great job at masking the strong vodka flavor without tasting too sweet. 5/5. The venue itself also deserves praise. It's a hybrid that surprisingly works well; the interior appears dimly lit and romantic, while the live music and openness with the outdoors suggest a casual hangout scene. Despite Houston wreaking its usual summer havoc, I felt comfortable sitting in one of the inside booths. This lounge does a great job at appealing to a wide variety of vibes. Bring a date, or some friends, or some colleagues. It'll all work. read more

Loved the vibe, the music, the food, and most importantly the Drinks! Drinks: (5/5) I had their twist on an Old Fashioned and it was amazing ! I had two lol . My best friend had the frozen Paloma and she was pleased as well! The price points were standard. Food: (5/5) This was such a surprise! Cocktail bars typically don't do that well with food, but that isn't what people go there for anyways. HOWEVER, Jethro's bites were SOOOO good! Freshly made and literally melt in your mouth good. No complaints at all ! This cocktail lounge has such a variety of seating options (inside and out).! read more

Jethro’s Cocktail Lounge - $7 before 7pm smash burger special - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

Weekday happy hours is just what is needed sometimes and Jethro's Cocktail Lounge does it just right! Came here with a crew right at opening. They have limited parking out front, a lot across the street as well as street parking. We all got street parking without any issues. There's a small patio out front, but we decided to hang out inside. Inside you have a lounge like area but mostly they have high top tables as well as bar seating. We set up shop at the bar and Felicia took care of us. She did an amazing job handling our crowd. Happy hour is what we came for and we partook in it all. What was supposed to be a one drink night turned into a few more. 8 bucks for a proper cocktail is a steal these days. I started of the Redemption Bourbon Chocolate Old Fashioned. This was a strong one but good. Tullamore Dew Irish Mule happened next. This was a really good drink. My Last drink was the Flor De Cana 12 Year Daquiri which was very good and my personal favorite. What I also heard about Jethro's is that they have a great burger deal and I had to try it. You get a Smashburger (my favorite style) and fries for 7 bucks before 7pm. That is a deal! It came out quick and you can tell it was freshly made. I shared as we had dinner plans after, but I wish I got one more myself. It was delicious. It came with fries that I thought would be an afterthought, but they were very good. My friend Jason D likened it to McDonalds fries and he hit the nail on the head with that comparison. You just can't go wrong with that kind of fry. A full burger meal and an expertly made cocktail for around 15 bucks is a steal considering that's what you would spend at most fast food joints these days. Overall, Jethro's has won me over and has shot up as one of my favorite happy hour spots. I will definitely be back! read more

I love the ambiance in this lounge, the dim lighting, the music, the decor & set up. There's indoor & outdoor seating & has a really cool garage like door that leads to the patio. It's a great lounge choice for date night catching up with frieThe service was awesome, we were greeted by one of the bartenders as soon as we came in. They shared the drink available for Cocktail Week. I just wish there were more options, they offered just one drink on the menu, that sounded like it was more of a mocktail. It sounded delicious, but not what I was expecting. We decided to choose different drinks instead & went with the Piscofragolistic & Yardy Know! We enjoyed our drinks & will be returning for one of their Drag Bingo events soon! read more
