The Railyard - Bar - Sports Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

The bartender aggressively ask me to leave. I was ID for a water. I thought the man misunderstood me and I told him again it was for water but he still requested my ID. All my friends received alcohol without being ID through another bartender. I was the DD for all my girlfriends that were in their 30s and I clearly look 30. It was my mistake to leave my id in the car which I would have had no problem getting but the guy was super aggressive and even followed me out. Mind you I literally just got there and was sober. I am super laid back so my actions were definitely was not the cause of it. I didn't even fight or say anything back to the bartender I just turned around and went to get my purse and tell my girlfriends I was leaving and he followed me out. :( read more

Very basic bar. No food, quiet dark interior, and it's more like a large man-cave than your usual houston bar. But I love it for that. It almost always has the perfect number of patrons inside, I never have to wait to get a drink, and I love playing darts or shooting hoops. The drinks are priced very reasonably, and the patrons are usually a somewhat quiet/respectful bunch. But don't think that this is a complete dive bar. It gets quite a few professionals in it as well. It just has a very welcoming and relaxed atmosphere, and I miss being able to call it my neighborhood bar! read more

I lovvveeee this bar! Love love love bartender Brittany Amazing!!!!! The vibe is so chill! Can't wait for the reopening!

As a longtime fan of the Roll-n, it's hard not to be a little let down to see that the inside has been updated so much, but it still has a good vibe to it. Been there a couple times now and talking to the old bartender was good. Still the best bar in that posh of a neighborhood. read more

Great place for drinks, people and patios! Love that I can bring my dog and just hang out. Great bartenders and locals!

A couple friend of ours is in town from South Carolina, we haven't seen them in. Year (or longer) so we wanted to go somewhere we could all have fun but also just chill and be able to talk and hangout with one another...this place was exactly what we were looking for! Games for all of us, good music selection, bartender was incredibly awesome and friendly! When we first walked in, around 11, it seemed to be a bar of regulars...but that didn't stop anyone from befriending us and talking to us! TV set up is a huge thing to my fiancé, he is a CRAZY sports fan! They had a great set up for sporting games! He was impressed! SCORE!! We tried it last night (a Friday night) and it was a little slow at first, then hit packed in no time! We will definitely be back!! read more

Nice small bar. The environment here is not too rowdy. I like being able to walk here for a drink. The people working the bar have been nice. You don't have to worry about being surrounded by pretentious snobby people here. read more

This is a dive bar but it was a very good atmosphere. Maybe because the Astros was playing on tv in the world series. The service was ok until Amy came in. Then service was great! Pricing was just a tad bit high for a neighborhood bar but then i realized the neighborhood I was in, so all is well. Decor is what you would expect in a dive bar. Dive bar appearance but first class service. Must visit if you like dive bars. read more

The best bartender in houston resides at this spot. Local spots are the best. Cool people and great drinks. I love this place and you will too. Ask for Tony and he will take care of you. it's like that little hole on the wall without the drama of other spots. Have a great time and check the attitude near the galleria. Peace read more

We decided to venture outside of our normal Galleria neighborhood Dives to have a new experience with another Dive last night. It was still close by in the next neighborhood over from us in River Oaks. I found this place due to my awesome fellow Yelpers! It's right off of San Felipe & 610 across the train tracks, you have to look for their sign or you will miss this place. The interior is dark, nice bar, tables, plenty of TV's for sports, and a few games (Pac Man, Pinball, & skeet ball). Clean facility & restroom. Great indoor A/C on a hot day. An Everybody crowd. Nice little outdoor patio (there are no TV's outside though). We ordered a total of 6 CRAFT draft beers and the tab was only $34. Bartender was super fast & friendly. I heard the bartender offers $2.25 shots when the train goes by. Patrons were very friendly and struck up a convo with several of them. Plenty of them also brought their own food & pizzas. When I'm in the mood for some craft beer, I will definitely stop by here again. Thank you for the hospitality! read more

Literally this place SUCKS. Came in on a Saturday, tried to order and drink and received a simple "I can't serve y'all" from the bartender (brunette female, tattoos on the right arm). No explanation, just that as we waited 5-10 minutes for an explanation. Finally she came back and said we seemed too intoxicated to serve. False. We were totally sober, just tired from a long day and a long-distance couple that spends every moment possible being as together as we can. This bartender has to be the most ignorant and self righteous person I've ever had the displeasure of encountering in my life. If you're bartendering, I would be a little more open minded to the people that are in the establishment. read more

This is my first time here and it's a cool vibe. They have is music playing and the bartenders are attentive. The prices are a little higher then I want to pay. Great place for happy hour. read more

Classic neighborhood bar. The attentiveness of the bartenders is what makes this place enjoyable. Prices were reasonable and entertainment (TVs, darts, etc) were ok. Good selection of craft beers and liquor. Definitely would come back just for the service alone. read more

There isn't really anything special about the drink specials here. You get the feeling that this place is trying to be a hole in the wall kind of joint but when all of their patrons are wearing dress pants and long sleeved shirts it's kind of hard to respect it for anything more than just an afterwork happy hour spot. We stopped in but didn't stick around as the prices weren't as low as we had hoped and the patrons seemed lame. read more

I visit from out of town co-worker suggested this spot. Great spot for happy hour came back after happy hour after dinner totally different spot. Very racist far as guest .Not friendly atmosphere had two encounters while with co worker non black while just sitting enjoying a drink. Will not be back again workers saw what was going on but chose to ignore and said I'm sorry . First time ever experiencing racism but will be sure to spread word not to go here for any out of state people and for my company. read more

Been here multiple times and never been impressed. The staff is very rude here and never takes care of their customers.

I have always wanted to try this place but was hesitant. Melanie, the bartender, made experience so pleasant. She was so cheerful and attendant. She made my first evidence really pleasant. The crowd is diverse and chill. This may become a regular neighborhood spot for me, even though I'm not in the neighborhood. I'll be back again. read more

This place hires lazy waitstaff. They don't pay attention to people at the bar waiting to order. I wonder. Are they even old enough to serve alcohol? They can't tell when someone is frustrated about crummy service and drunk. My friend complained about being ignored. They threw us out. All 7 of us. Really??? Horrible experience. Such a disappointment. I'm telling everyone I can. Can you do no stars??? read more

Stumbled upon this bar while visiting with a large group in March. Walking distance, cheap drinks and beer, nice bartender, and bar games kept our 10+ group of 20-something's entertained. We went two nights back to back :) Fast forward a few months and I met up with a friend here after moving to the area. Bar was pretty quiet since we arrived around 6, but the bartender was the same friendly guy, beers were still crazy cheap and everything was super comfortable. I don't live close so I won't be a regular, but it's definitely worth checking out if you're in the area! read more

Ive been here twice now and thought the same thing both times. Its an ok bar nestled right before you cross the tracks to River Oaks. It is definitely a dive and most of the patrons are men. They have your typical selection of drafts, bottled beer, and liquor. It is a smaller establishment, so sometimes it can be hard to find a seat. It is definitely not lacking in customers. A big downfall for me is the fact that it does not serve food. As far as I know, I don't think it even serves appetizers. If I'm wrong on that, someone correct me. However, if its true that there is no food served at all, that is a definite no-go for me. Also, the parking situation is a little hectic. It shares a small lot with a few other businesses in the strip center that it is located in. During the day, this may not be a problem. However, on a busy night, you are pretty much screwed over trying to find a spot. Overall, I don't dislike this bar by any means, but its definitely more a guys kind of hangout. read more

Great neighborhood bar! Been going here for 4 years now. Just a simple walk from work. Great workers and just a chill place to meet up with friends. read more

This bar is the prime definition of your neighborhood bar. It's nothing fancy, it's a laid back bar that the "locals" go to. My experience here was great. We went on a Wednesday night the place had couple of people but it wasn't packed. They have an outdoor area and on the inside they have couple of tables and some arcade games that you can play. The bartender was super awesome and friendly. I kept asking her bunch of questions and she kept answering with a smile on her face. The other thing that made love this place is their prices. They have very competitive prices and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg for a top shelf drink. read more

This is probably one of tge best down and dirty dive bars in Houston. I have always had a good time here. They NHL hockey which is a major plus. read more

Nooooo!!!!! Someone bought the Big Buck Safari game! My one reason for coming to this place. Now they have a dumb arm wrestling game in it's place. Boo-urns!! read more

This is a decent bar and a good place to get a few drinks. It is convenient walking distance to my apartment, so I hang out here often. The bartenders have always been friendly. read more

Excellent little bar with a chill vibe. Patrons of all kinds from formal gowns to jeans. There's also a basketball arcade game. I mean, what else do you need? read more

Came here on a tuesday to watch the NBA finals and was fairly happy with it. Most people were pretty laid back and seemed like the typical professional happy hour type crowd. However despite being tuesday around 7pm there were no happy hour prices ( was 3.50 domestics, 4.50 imports). No food was a bummer (You can order food to be delivered there though) and the fact that drinks were a bit expensive were both turn offs. I will likely go again but I doubt I'd ever spend a whole night there. read more

Miss the old Stinky : "ROLL-In" it was the last stop on the way home back in the day.. I like the new place too. It is updates and FUN and several times we went with a group - SO not sure what it would be like with just 2 people? read more

Great Lil sports bar. Good bartenders. happy hour M-Sat 4-7. Cheap coors light pitchers and Shiner draft special. Great place.

A good little neighborhood hole in the wall bar with a lot of good beer choices. My buddy just moved in nearby and I have a feeling we will be coming here often. read more

Even though they are a "partner with the Dynamo pub groups" the feeling was not that when we attempted to watch the game that evening. The bar seemed annoyed that we would even ask to watch the game, despite having several tvs available. If you don't want to mislead clients, don't pretend to be a soccer pub. read more

I love this place. I was visiting from out of town and the bar tender was very friendly and went out of his way to introduce himself and introduce me to others at the bar. There a number tasty local brews to choose from. Drinks are fairly priced. read more

Love this place. Great for first kisseS. Or pirate skeletons on Halloween. Love you all. Thank you for such a convenient locAtion for *adult daycare* read more

This is an awesome bar with super cool bartenders! Nice and laid back with a sense of comfortability. Plenty to chose from for even the pickiest of drinkers! read more

Not a fan of this place which stinks because I live at the apartment right across from it. Terrible beer selection that is way over priced. Ordered 3 Dogfish 90 minutes and the bill was $27 before tip! If you like bud light and shiner than go during happy hour its much cheaper, but off hours will hurt your wallet. Service is friendly but not attentive. Bathrooms are creepy gross and really small. Some nights the place is packed others the place is empty. I do like the touchtunes though. read more

Great guest taps. And the fish tacos are to die for! I've been here a few times and have been consistently impressed.

Male bartender who didn't ask if we wanted to keep tab open and never checked on us. Walked by us 5 times without ever saying hi.

Great neighborhood bar. Relaxed crowd. Both outdoor and indoor seating. Always have good service. Nothing to fancy, beers on tap rotate so there is always something good. They play local sports on the TV's. Mixed crowd young and old, suits and sweats. Always a good time. read more

I have just found this gem and can say it's the place to make your regular watering hole. A big plus you will not find at many bars is the owner is frequently there and is one of the nicest guys you will meet including the staff who are all very accommodating. read more
