Whether you're watching the Texans, Astros, or Rockets, here's where to go by neighborhood.
Downtown / EaDo:
- Pitch 25 (next to Shell Energy Stadium) — Best for soccer but has every game on. Great beer list, outdoor patio.
- Lucky's Pub (downtown) — Houston institution. Multiple locations. The original on Dallas St. is the best. Gets absolutely packed for Texans games.
Midtown:
- Little Woodrow's (Midtown location) — The quintessential Houston sports bar. Outdoor setup, cold beer, every TV has a different game. Saturday college football here is an experience.
- Christian's Tailgate — The name says it all. Bar food is above average. Wings are top-tier.
Washington Ave:
- Johnny's Gold Brick — More cocktail bar than sports bar but they'll put the game on and the crowd gets into it.
- Bobcat Teddy's — Dive bar energy. Cheap beer. TVs everywhere. No pretension.
Heights:
- Eureka Heights Brewing — Watch the game with a locally brewed beer. Laid back, dog friendly, good vibes.
