November 5 at 6pm +25
Rivas Coffee, Cocktails & Kitchen · Northside • $$
Grab your girls: Thursdays at Riva's mean Latin fusion bites and wildly creative cocktails in a chic Heights bungalow. The Spicy Guava Marg and Tres Leche Carajillo alone are worth the trip.
November 8 (This weekend) +8
Harold's Chicken & Sports Bar · Washington Avenue Coalition / Memorial Park • $$
Turkey Leg Hut rises again at Harold's Chicken and Sports Bar every Sunday. Load up on their legendary stuffed turkey legs while catching the game, with R&B and hip-hop setting the mood.
Jethro's · Midtown • $
Jethro's goes full haunted lounge for Halloween: spooky decor, themed cocktail specials, and the same expertly mixed drinks that made this cozy bar a local favorite.
Northside
This family-owned neighborhood bar knows how to keep regulars coming back: DJs spinning on point, generous weekly specials, and drinks that always have that little extra touch.
Montrose • $$$
A Michelin-starred bistro tucked inside Hotel Saint Augustine, serving elevated French fare that stays warm rather than stuffy. Come for the hanger steak with Anne potatoes, stay for a perfectly made Gibson.
EaDo • $
Boozy snowballs and Aperol spritzes taste better when you're overlooking a horse pasture. This East End spot serves classic cocktails, craft beer, and surprisingly good sandwiches at picnic tables surrounded by cornhole and chill vibes.
Browse Houston neighborhood by neighborhood, get ideas just for you, or ask me anything.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.
You can browse these pages without an account. Sign in to save activities and help me learn your taste, so future suggestions have a better starting point.
Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
