My husband and I went here for the first time last night to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We'd been wanting to try it for years and finally made the time to do it. The ambience is amazing. It was a time capsule that transported us to a slower pace, simpler living, and an easygoing attitude. The prices are reasonable, the service is exceptional, and we'd love to return for another visit!
The oldest commercial building in Houston. Constructed in 1847. Had such an old time ambiance. Including the machine that requires a coin to get cigarettes out of like back in the day. Such a cool little place. Only liquor and wine sold here.
Stumbled into this bar on our walk back after a show at 713 Music Hall. Ended up sparking up a conversation with John who has worked there many years. He talked to us about the history of the bar and even gave us a little tour of the place. We were honestly blown away by his friendliness and passion for the bar. Overall a great experience. Definitely going to try and stop by next time I’m in Houston.
