50 Best Bars near Aldine

“This is an absolute gem of a place that we found on Eater and booked, mostly because the piece mentioned that they were 'not pretentious' and source ingredients from their local, urban farm. We ate there on a Sunday, early evening, to the backdrop of tango dancing and cool art. The cocktails were innovative and beautifully balanced and we knew that everything on the small, seasonal southern menu would be a great choice. LOVE IS REAL AND YOU'LL FIND IT HERE is not just a tagline - the team are clearly chosen family and care deeply about their craft. We had a chance to chat with the unassuming owner, Billy, who shared his story and passion for hospitality and sustainable farming and his partner, Candace, who was was the embodiment of the vibe. We can't wait to visit again and see their expansion.“

“I came for the Grand Opening & things have been nice & professional ever since. LD2G supports the local community by providing a nice laid back environment as well as opportunities to promote your own business at their monthly Pop-Up Shops!! I haven’t even mentioned the drinks!! Sometimes you can get a daiquiri & it be watered down or even give you a hangover…NOT THESE!! They are full of flavor & guaranteed to get you right, day or night!!“

“I was not expecting a spot like this in my neighborhood & its not a bad spot. I seen a spot similar that used to exist on Airline in which this spot has various local beers that one cannot find in many of the local sports bars & maybe on a rare occasion you can find a brand of local brews that is over at the upscale restaurants. From what I seen in their drink menu especially for the beers, there is variety not just in tastes but also where they come from not just in Houston, but other locations outside of Houston & even local brews that are not here in Texas

I went there once when they had a Steak night which occurs on a Thursday but also despite being not the biggest spot it can get packed but still good enough to move around, & if one plans to get food. Its mostly set up on the outside since the area does not have enough space for a kitchen

Also it helps the location has good enough parking to find though it can get packed so my best advice. Get there early to enjoy Cobble & Spoke plus this spot does not just have beers, if your into wine or other drinks outside of beer. Its a go to“

“They ALWAYS have a good bourbon selection and the staff knows bourbon well.“

Ambiance definitely upscale! Enjoyed chatting with Chayn outside the restaurant! Looks like they have a number of special events coming up to enjoy! We live in Brenham but we are looking forward to returning soon! Highly recommend this place for quality food, drink, and great conversation!“

“Amazing spot for daiquiris!

This place definitely exceeded my expectations. The drinks are perfectly mixed — not too sweet and not too strong — just right. The flavors are super refreshing, and they have a great variety to choose from. The atmosphere is chill, the music’s always good, and it’s a perfect spot to stop by and unwind after a long day.

And I have to mention — the lady who works there is super funny and kind! She really makes the whole experience even better with her great energy and personality.“

“This whole facility is card only. I happened to be paying with a PayPal card as opposed to a regular bank card and there were issues with the pre-authorization hold when I tried to open a tab.

EVERY staff member I interacted with to resolve the problem was extremely courteous and helpful. Pablo was particularly friendly and understanding. If you're in downtown definitely swing by. Also extremely good happy hour M-F. Don't know where else in downtown that you can get a 3 dollar beer...

Solid bar. 👌🙏“

“I been living in Spring since 1998 a d this place went through many natural disasters and flooding. I always thought it was some giant tree house lol and ownerships. I remember a famous wrestler came here too. but this is a cool place. pinball, classic arcades, slot machines, pool, and other stuff going on.on yeah and TouchTunes lol. gotta need my metal fix🤘“

“Relaxed atmosphere - especially after the lunch rush!“

“Great chill vibes, was able to have a conversation with my date and the craft cocktails were both reasonably priced and actually quite unique and intriguing. I tried the Trinidad James since I love black sesame despite not normally being someone who can stand Angostura Bitters but it was beautifully balanced and I'd order it again in a heartbeat. This bar is definitely now on my shortlist for when I'm downtown.“

“I had such a great experience at Sassafras Bar! The vibe is unmatched super fun, welcoming, and perfect whether you’re going out with friends or just want a chill night with good drinks. The music and atmosphere really set the tone, and you can tell they put a lot of care into making it a memorable spot. But honestly, what made the night was Micah hands down the best! From the moment we walked in, he was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. His energy really elevated the whole experience, and you can tell he genuinely enjoy what he does. Great drinks, great service, and even better people. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“We love this bar so much! Before 7/8 pm, it's giving artsy dive bar vibes with friendly bartenders, and late night it's an incredible music venue with the best mix of bands and performances. We've been coming here for years, and there's always a familiar friendly face to welcome us in. Oje is really a loving community. Come check it out and become part of the family!“

“Here for Thanksgiving! Great food! Excellent service! 10/10.“

“Absolutely love this spot! The daiquiris are always on point — super smooth, flavorful, and not watered down. The staff is friendly, the music is good, and the vibe is always chill. My go-to is the [insert favorite flavor] — it never misses! Perfect spot to grab a drink and unwind. 🍹“

“I was invited to host at this new sexy spot on Washington. It's a sexy tequila bar. Great for an event, friends' night out, or a date night. The dj is the highlight of the spot along with the service 👌. I'll definitely be back. Get you an espresso martini l. I indulged in 3. Smooches 😘“

“I have been going to Starduster since it opened, it has gotten nothing but better and better. The original cocktail concepts, friendly staff, well made drinks in a cozy atmosphere. There's not much more you could want. Weeknights are great for calm evenings, getting work done and happy hour. Weekends it's the perfect place to show your friends and get together.

They also make a mean Dirty Martini 🍸“

“Oh the magic... We celebrated my daughter's college graduation here last weekend. Alexis, the coordinator is wonderful. She was a dream to work with, and lightening fast at responding. She was onsite and I agree with other comments made of her. The lady is patience and grace. Never out of sorts, handled everything expeditiously, and with the utmost professionalism and proactiveness. The space was beautiful and the guests were all impressed with the space itself. Very little decor is needed as the Venue's design, decor and overall vibe is lovely all on its own. The bartender, Omar was top-notch. Our guests loved him. His knowledge of the specialty cocktails, and non-alcoholic hand made lemonade were delish. Finally, Christina, our day of server or hostess was incredible. She handled my crowd with ease, professionalism, and was always in sight and on top of the food, music, and guests.

If I could, i'd go back and re-do my past events at this venue as well. They only get 5 stars because Google's rating system wont allow a 10! Well done Alexis, Omar and Christina. My daughter loved and in my book, that is 100% SUCCESS!“

“step back in time. its a small place and everyone is your friend. this was a fun place to visit“

“I just want to give a big shout out to your establishment. I went on Friday for your $9.99 Burger Night and was very impressed with what all you get for that price. It was one of the best burgers with seasoned french fries that I have eaten in quite some time. The bartenders were extremely friendly and nice and went out of their way to make me feel welcomed. In fact, the nice gentleman who served us made one of the best Old Fashioned drinks that I have had in years. I definitely will be going back. It's one of my new favorite establishments.“

“this place is such a vibe. The ambience, the drinks and the amazing staff. Special thank you to Ian for going above and beyond to ensure such a pleasant experience :)“

“If you are considering a premium experience tonight, go to Tokyo Joe's. Some of the best drinks and atmosphere available around the area! The best bartender I've met in a while made me feel like the night was meant to last. Tasty Drinks, fun music, great food! Ask for my man Butters!“

“This place was sick! It’s a covered patio that’s been converted to an intimate, artsy and cozy space. It reminded me of the cocktail scene in Tucson or Mexico City. I’ve never been anywhere in Houston that compares. The food also delivered more than expected. We ordered the quesadilla and it was huge (big enough for two) and delicious! Let’s keep this gem alive Houston! Will def be back.“

“I have this place twice and I love it 🥰 really good service“

“It's a quiet small place with no food service except for frozen pizza but you can bring food in or order delivery, it's cozy & lots of TVs for sports events & they usually have free food during certain games, people bring food to share, pool tables, plenty of dart boards & dart tournaments, pinball machine, fooseball table“

“10/10 one of the best bars in Houston. This place is 100% a vibe.“
