This little bar is about as casual and easy-going as you can get. Located right off Capitol downtown, Sunny's was one of the few bars open in the area and it probably falls into dive bar category. Pool tables and foosball in back, regulars up front, just the type of unassuming spot to grab a quick one. As a first-timer I felt all the folks in here were quite friendly outside of the couple macking on the couch in back. BUT they were busy so I understand. So stop by Sunny's for a beer and little bit of sunshine... read more

Sunny's Bar - Dive Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

This is THE Downtown Houston dive bar. That's really all that needs to be said. Cheap drinks, served cold. If you need to know more than that, Sunny's probably isn't the place for you. read more

Great locally owned businesses. They took great care of us. Best prices downtown . Worth the stop!

DOPE ass bar. Drinks and customer service are a 10/10. Definitely an affordable and phenomenal hidden gem downtown. Check them out!

What a great place. Matt the owner is personable, kind, and his wife is lovely!!! Saw the sign from the street and knew it was my kind of place. You can tell the locals absolutely love it and appreciate the great service, drinks, and cleanliness!!!! read more

I like the convenience of a bar around the corner. That's about it. I asked the bartender to make a simple drink and when I told him my friend and I didn't like it after a sip, he charged us anyway and made us pay for the next drinks we ordered to replace them. The drinks taste horrible and watered down. Not only were our drinks and service terrible but also his attitude and professionalism. All in all, this is where you come WHEN you're already drunk. Disappointing to say because when I lived downtown, this was a regular place for me. read more

This place doesn't look like much but what a fun dive bar! Friendly bartender, great people at the bar and strong drinks. We even enjoyed some Jell-O shots and a slushy vodka drink. We will be back for sure. We may even partake in the super affordable buckets of beer. We felt like part of the locals. No pretension here! read more

Sunny's Bar - Slushy cocktail and Jell-O shots. - Dive Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

Great diver bar. Even though I was introduced to it by a woman that broke my heart and totally gutted me I love the place. Jell-O shots are awesome. Do not do the Ray Charles. Also, stay away from "brother in law". read more

What a great place in downtown Houston TX!! The owners are great. Best beer prices in town!! If you don't stop and check it out shame on you!! read more

This place is super divey in a classy way -- the excellent location, beautiful staff, friendly patrons, awesome karaoke sound system & jukebox, $1 jello shots... what on earth more does a person need!? OMG I was so impressed at the overall feel of the place. I was invited to come check the place out and ended up meeting a fabulous group of regulars and newbies for a great night of Houston fun. I am so going to return to this gem!! #TeamSunnys (In my Arnold Schwarzenegger accent: I'LL BE BACK) read more

Welcome respite from the over-priced and over-hyped pretentious yuppie bars in the area. Prices, attitude, and porch are all just right. And I stole a beer sleeve. read more

Sunny's Bar - LOL - Dive Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

Sunny's is a small dive bar in downtown away from the hustle and bustle of all the others ones nearby. It's a little tight in the front where the bar is but there's a little more seating in the game room around back. The drinks are solid and $1 Jell-O shots. read more

Absolutely fantastic gem in downtown Houston. Cheap drinks with tons of vodka flavors. White girls everywhere rejoice! I got fruit loop vodka (didn't know they still made it!) With club soda and my husband got a beer. Free coozie with a beer order...score! Awesome decorations with games out back and a small little patio to people watch. Icing on the cake...$1 jello shots. Your welcome. read more

I didn't know dive bars like this existed within city limits, but here we are. Sunny's is everything you would want in a little dive bar: - Cheap drinks - Awesome koozies with your beer - $1 jello shots - Games in the back - Tons of tacky yet well placed decorations Plus a ton more. Also enjoyed the small patio overlooking Capitol street. Whether you have a crew looking to stop in for a cheap round or if you want to slow down for one drink and relax, definitely would recommend popping into Sunny's. read more

Excellent service, no fluff. Great prices. Just a bummer that they don't serve food.

Great bar. Great prices. Amazing after-game spot to hit up. I got $15 buckets with 6 beers and $1 Jell-O shots. Love a good deal with a great staff. It might be a bit of an older crowd, but I think the free popcorn makes up for it. Great all around pre-game bar to go out for cheap drinks before heading out to the clubs. 10/10 read more

Sunny's Bar - Pic of the bar selection - Dive Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

Sunny's is a rare gem, a magical unicorn dressed up like a Jimmy Buffet fan without the cichiness. The patrons are friendly and the staff is ingratiating! I have a legendary "Bardar" that can smell out the right place to party in from a mile away. When I came along Sunny's my Bardar went off like a fire alarm! Booze Patio for smoking and drinking Foozeball More love that a crane game full of care bears! read more

Yay! I'm a fan of Sunny and I'm a fan of Sunny's Bar!!! We stopped in on a Sat afternoon right after opening. Sunny was a little late opening so I help pull down chairs from the bar while talking to her as she was setting up. Sunny bought me a couple of jello shots. She's so cool and so sweet! Pub Crawls were coming through. Someone bought me some more jello shots. We drank and couple of beers and started on our own crawl. I'll for sure be back next time I'm downtown... See ya Soon Sunny!!! read more

Cee B.'s review pretty much nails it - come here if you don't want to run into suits you need to glad-handle. You can actually be yourself here. Which is a good thing. Just like you probably "behave" on facebook because of family and peers, consider Sunny's to be your private tumblr account that you don't share with anyone who is going to judge you harshly for repeatedly reblogging Darth Vader riding Charizard. I'm not saying it is Mos Eisley by any means. But I am pretty sure this is where Han Solo would come for a drink - definitely not the Flying Saucer. Just like Warren's: this is a downtown bar that does it right. This is a monster jam for drinking after work. read more

Great environment! Came here early in the day before we went eat, got treated as family bartender even remember my name every time we came in out threw out the day! I highly recommend this place. DO NOT waste your time going to other bars around the area this place is it!! read more

Sunny's Bar - Saturdaze! - Dive Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

This bar is a must try. This bar have little speciality drinks that will get you "chocolate wasted" ! If you go here try the mixed frozen drink, pineapple bites(dipped in diesel), and the "ray charles"! With the Ray Charles you stand behind the bar(the side you normally sit on) and you are blind folded, then they give you three ice cubes and you throw them at the bar aiming for the alcohol bottles. Which ever three bottles you hit is what your shot is comprised of. give it a try!!!!! Also when you buy a beer they give you a beer sleeve to keep. read more

Sunny's Bar - Inside at the bar - Dive Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

Very reasonable prices and friendly bartender. We are staying downtown for the night and wanted to have a few drinks. It's so close to the Marriott we had to check it out. I recommend this place for some drinks. read more

Pretty neat place, while bar hopping downtown this was like my 3rd....er was it 4th stop? Pretty much brightly lit since coming from Warren's was the opposite. Lots of neat/comical stickers on the wall to chuckle at while your downing and conversation over a drink. Not seen from the street there are some pool tables and something else I could not remember. We had a few of the $1 jello shots then left. The shots were pretty good, had a little sweetness to it that some do not care for but I did. read more

Found this spot while enjoying a show downtown. Great little hole without the "hype" of downtown bar. Good people.

Sunny's is one of the best bars downtown, great priced drinks, a TouchTunes jukebox to control the music and the sweetest bartenders you could ask for. Take the time to read the signs they are hilarious AND did I mention there's jellyfish AT THE BAR!? read more

My friends and I wanted Jell-O shots and read we could get them here for $1. This bar was probably one of our best finds, the lady who owned the bar and her son were so friendly. Along with the Jell-O shots they had test tube shots, margaritas, and soaked pineapple for a great price! The only issue was parking but that was expected. We will definitely be back! read more

This was my first time really hanging out downtown and did a search to find a bar to go have drinks... Sunny's was the closest to where I was AND WHAT A GREAT CHOICE! PLEASE stop by and enjoy great drinks, nice staff and clean environment. Whatever you want to drink they have. Also, love the jello shots. read more

Changed my flight to three hours later because this is The Spot. Best place in Houston to have great beers, people, and games.

Sunny's is the best bar in downtown Houston in my opinion. It's fun, the prices are great and the owner and bartenders are very friendly. You can't beat it. A hidden gem. read more

Now, I love downtown Houston, but the best thing about the place is the most opposite of anything downtown has to offer and that's Sunny's. The only stiffs here are the drinks and Sunny will personally serve you one. read more

Such a fun dive bar in downtown Houston! You can play your own tunes and make sure to get their Jell-O shots! Owners are super nice as well!

Big fan of Sunny's. The most neighborhood bar you'll find Downtown. Matt will find the game on for you. Kobe BRYANT Rip

I love everything about this small cool bar. From the playlist to the dollar Jell-O shots (all day EVERYDAY OKAY) to the people that hang around here. Sunny's is usually a stop I make any time I'm near Main St and walking around. The bartender is always polite, and the service is always quick no matter how packed it may get from time to time. I don't love that their bathroom is so far in the back of the building, but you can't have it all! read more

To call this a dive bar doesn't quite capture the essense of Sunny's. Yes, it's a little rough around the edges (like Sunny herself). No, it's not fancy (again, like Sunny herself). Yes, the crowd is (to say the least) diverse. It's the Village People of bars. Construction workers, cops, lawyers all united in their quest for cheap, strong drinks. On any given night people will hook up, break up, fight, fall down, make up, make out, get drunk, get lost. Sometimes the same person will do all of these things! I tell myself I'll never go back there. But I'm the Duke. Yeah..it's that kind of place. read more
