http://www.myspace.com/bbwolfs1 Stafford-area drinkers and sports fans could hardly ask for a more welcoming spot than BB Wolf's. This semi-smoky Murphy Road tavern sports a blue-collar vibe and bartenders who ask for customers' names before taking their drink orders. Weekly poker and pool nights fill up the multitude of gaming tables, and a stage in the corner hosts live music. Hockey fans will find a special breed of camaraderie here, as Canada's sport of kings is often in progress on the array of televisions. Read more about this Houston bar or club >>
http://www.babaloocafe.net Nestled in the rear of the Villagio center in Cinco Ranch is Babaloo, a sizable new bar and café. With the giant oval bar as its centerpiece, the large, solitary room has windows on three sides for a view of Villagio's massive patio area. Babaloo works on the tapas premise of doling out small dishes with drinks, but bar sales make up the bulk of the business. This well-stocked bar provides drinkers an ample selection, attracting a more mature crowd that takes the time to savor their libations. Read more about this Houston bar or club >>
http://www.sherlockspubco.com Within the Sherlock's family, every Baker Street Pub is the same, and every Baker Street Pub is different: heavy, rich wooden tables and chairs, comfy leather booths and plenty of nooks beckoning groups of friends to settle in for the night. The menu is loaded with standard pub fare, including some authentic British dishes, and the décor is bound to include a smattering of beer signs, England references and mood lighting. The Rice Village location caters to nearby students as well as folks from the neighborhood, and boasts a kitchen that serves grub right up until 2 a.m. When the weather is amiable, the welcoming front patio makes a fine hangout.

http://www.bambouhouston.com Careful: This Latin lounge on top of the Village Arcade building at Kirby and University is easy to miss. Find its two big glass doors on a Friday or Saturday night, though, and you'll discover a room full of movers and groove-shakers. DJs spin from an elevated platform facing the door, while an array of couches and tables ring the sunken dance floor. For those who decline bottle service, two bars dole out the goods all night long, while small outdoor patios allow folks to survey the goings-on below. Fridays are free, but be prepared for a cover charge on Saturdays. Read more about this Houston bar or club >>
http://www.barmunich.com In the midst of Midtown's bustling bar universe sits Bar Munich. The bar's Web site heavily touts its German leanings, a welcome change from Midtown's usual yuppie hustle and bustle - but don't get too excited, there are no busty girls in dirndls serving suds or oom-pah bands playing on the patio. Think modern Germany, where you might find Teutonic twentysomethings taking up WiFi space and watching soccer matches. Read more about this Houston bar or club >>
http://www.barebackbar.com Though its location off a fairly empty stretch of Kuykendahl Road makes it feel almost like the middle of nowhere, Bareback has its charm. The large warehouse has a full selection of beers and spirits in a saloon-like atmosphere. Large roll-top doors open to allow breezes to flow through the building when the weather's amicable, and the walls are littered with rodeo photos and old signs. A full kitchen offers up a selection of burgers and other bites, while pool and shuffleboard tables provide some entertainment. The dance floor in the center of the bar fills up when bands come through, and an additional beer helps draw off the overflow when crowds swell in the spring and summer.

http://www.bayoucitybar.com Right across the street from South Beach in the heart of Montrose is Bayou City Bar & Grill, a quaint and more intimate version of its neighbor. It gets a bit crowded on the weekends, but Bayou City is also one of the area's livelier spots during the week. A dance floor and a few places to sit surround the bar in the middle of the club, which serves up $2 domestic beers from 4-8 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. Tuesdays are also amateur strip night, and the ever-popular "50-cent Fridays" are still in effect. The black lights on the dance floor are harsh on white clothing, but with the amount of bare skin on display here, that isn't too much of a problem. Read more about this Houston bar or club >>
http://www.belvedereinfo.com A green sign above an oversized door heralds Belvedere, nestled unassumingly in the Uptown Park shopping district. Within, a long bar with minimalist décor stretches most of the room, with four big-screen TVs positioned among the array of bottles. The angled marble countertop comfortably accommodates the 20 stools and leaves ample space to stand amidst them. Opposite the bar, each of five alcoves can easily seat 20 to 30 people on the modern leather couches and chairs. Near the DJ booth in the back of the club, the VIP lounge features another television and can fit 40 people. The ivy-covered patio houses a second full bar and additional turntablist on duty on busy nights. Read more about this Houston bar or club >>
http://www.bferockclub.com For Inner-Loopers, BFE is certainly true to its name. (Those unfamiliar with the acronym should consult Urban Dictionary.) For residents of Houston's northwest fringes, though, BFE is a rock haven. This smoky bar boasts a stage and sound system big enough to melt faces while maintaining the intimate vibe of a smaller music venue. On Wednesdays, budding arena hopefuls take the stage for open-mike night, with stadium drums and delayed vocals prevailing over crowd noise. Pool tables in the back provide entertainment on non-show nights, and a photo wall displays regulars' faces. Don't skip out on the suggestively-named Sexy Kitchen, which serves up an array of grilled and fried delights, including a fried Honey Bun. Read more about this Houston bar or club >>
Big Daddy's is a quiet weekday tavern that becomes lively in the evenings - and especially on the weekends - by balancing a relaxed atmosphere with a crowded events schedule and budget-friendly promotions. Nestled in the corner of a shopping mall behind a gas station, the bar hosts men's and women's pool leagues, friendly Texas Hold 'Em games and a round-robin of karaoke, live DJs or open mikes on Thursdays. Fill up for free on the weekends with complimentary hot dogs on Fridays, queso on Saturdays and chili dogs and pool on Sundays. All week long, pitchers are $5; domestic longnecks, shot specials, Bloody Marys and wells are all only $2; and drafts are just a buck. Read more about this Houston bar or club >>
http://www.bigjohnsicehouse.com If you take pride in the Astros, Texans, Dynamo or any Texas collegiate athletic program (and LSU), then you could lose yourself admiring the original graphics, murals and banners of all sorts lining Big John's walls. Wednesdays are steak night, Thursdays are trivia, and Fridays bring live music to this self-described neighborhood sports bar. Saturdays and Sundays are devoted to whatever sporting event happens to be going on. Big John's full kitchen serves everything from chicken and steak sandwiches to "Sloppy Johns," shrimp po-boys and burgers. Read more about this Houston bar or club >>
http://www.bigjohnsbar.com Big John's has a new general manager and is undergoing a somewhat drastic facelift. Despite its gigantic size, it's a cozy bar where the live music isn't cranked way, way up, so patrons can actually converse with each other. The impressive pool hall in the back room - John's is affiliated with the American Pool Association - is likewise being renovated, with a dance floor on the way. Wednesday is trivia night, and DJs spin on Friday and Saturday. Big John's offers more than 25 beers on tap, $2 wells and $1.75 drafts; food specials include ribeye and salmon nights on Tuesday and Thursday (respectively), and fajita tacos are available upon request.
