Captain Foxheart's Bad News Bar & Spirits Lodge

This place is intimate , classy , and just all-around great. You can tell the bartender the type of drink you want and he'd come up with something. 9 times out of 10 it comes out amazing. Love it!

It wasn't voted Best Bar for nothing! Try anything and you'll see why. Cheryl and the other bartenders are friendly and talented!

Cool space, but be prepared to pay for everything. You don't even get chips and salsa ! 2 people, 5 tacos , guacamole , 4 house margaritas , and a side of refried beans - $100.

Keep an eye out for Cheryl Gibbs, one of the finest bartenders in H-town. Creative, hard-working and beautiful talent. If she's working, she's my bartender .

Go upstairs to Captain Foxheart’s Bad News Bar & Spirit Lounge and order yourself a cocktail . Then step out onto the patio that provides a delicious view of downtown Houston. Pretty damn simple. Read more

Go up the stairs towards the attorney's office and look for the door with the small fox.

Probably the best feature of the bar (besides the cocktails ) is the balcony . Ask anyone who’s been to Bad News and they’ll probably say, “I love the balcony !” When you’re on the balcony facing the ... Read more

We suggest you explore the block yourself. And while you are at it, stop in and thank good ol’ Capt. Foxheart for going back to a place many of us had abandoned…downtown! Read more

Extremely unassuming space that you pretty much have to know about to find. Cocktails are wonderfully crafted; pricey though but honestly, what else do you expect?

One of my favorite bars in Houston! Amazing cocktails , and the atmosphere is perfect for happy hour or a night out!

We recommend you…just listen to the music of the traffic in the city…while spending some time on the Bad News Bar balcony . Read more

Great bar keeps and a beautiful space! Real perk is that the capacity is kept low so you always have space, even on the busiest of nights.

Great cocktails much like anvil. Little pricey but you do get what you pay for. Like of like 45 people in the bar so prob go on a weekday or get there early

Beautiful space with cocktails by the best in town ! Check out the patio balcony too.

Elephant in the room is a must try. Comes with a little toy elephant sitting on the rim of your glass. Excellent cocktails .

Went to Foxheart's on Saturday for the first time.... awesome place! it feels like you're not in Houston! Great drinks and Atmosphere....

When you’re on the balcony facing the building, you might be reminded of New Orleans by the ornate façade. Face the MetroRail side, and now it feels a little like Chicago.

Ask the barman to mix up a perfect $5 Old Fashioned and watch the records spin on the staff-stocked turntable. Read more

Previous review I left was not meant for here. I love this bar ! It's beautiful, and the bartenders are awesome!

Had the banana hammock and loved it

Ask any of the bartenders to surprise you with a cocktail . Be adventurous!

Balcony overlooking main street is pretty awesome. Great cocktails .

Aaron is the bartender to go to!

The horrible fact is two years ago you could have walked into Fitz on Tuesday night and gotten this, minus annoying 20 somethings, for 1/2 the price.

Ask for Cheryl . Anything she's making will be awesome.

The diablo cocktail is great

Love the patio , definitely worth a drink out here

Excellent Old Fashioned .

Best backbar in houston.

The cocktails are very good.

Get a cocktail over ice. Real ice cubes!

This is a bar – i.e. they do not have a kitchen or serve food, so drop by a nearby restaurant before you come up. The other important thing to know is that there is no sign – not even a marked door. Read more

Can get crowded on the weekends.

Lovely Space for craft cocktails

Great craft cocktails !

Great Moscow mule

Speakeasy feel. Cocktail bar . ????

Vieux Carré with a splash of Cynar. Every time.

The bitterest bar in town .

Welcome to the inner sanctum.

Bar owner is an asshole.
