Love it! It is like a combination of Lee Harvey's meets Cosmos . Had a veggie hot dog Fri night that was AWESOME! New place for me to go for Art Car Weekend. If you are from Dallas, you will get this.

2010 Best of Houston® Winner: Best Bar : 1 of the city 's most lively alcoholic redoubts. You can disappear in a dark corner, or you can hold court w/your drinking team on the dark back patio .

Cheap , no frills drinks. A dive bar at its finest. Great outdoor area that is perfect for hot nights, cold beers and an indoor area with Ms. Pacman and a punching bag strength game. Great beers !!

Check out all of the great Real Ale Brewing Co beers here. This bar has embraced the craft movement fully.

There are very few facedouches here and the bar is very divey with a decent patio .

Great place to meet like minded individuals. That is if you like minds that meet at great places.
