9 Things to Know About Kirby Ice House in the Woodlands, Home to Texas’s Longest Bar | Eater Houston

"Opened September 27 as the brand’s third outpost, this Woodlands beer garden features a record-setting 141-foot bar — nearly 20 feet longer than its sister Memorial/Spring Branch location — and room for up to 700 guests with a 10,000 sq ft interior and an expansive roughly 18,000 sq ft backyard patio. The beverage program includes 51 rotating beer taps, wines by the bottle and glass, sangrias and an extensive cocktail list (examples include skinny frozen rosé, a spiked frozen tea, cucumber-lime Moscow mules, blood orange palomas, lemonade Old Fashioneds and coconut-lime mojitos, with some cocktails even served on tap). Programming centers on themed nights and deals — happy hour, Wednesday steak night, Pint Nights, ladies’ nights, Texas beer and liquor specials and Sunday Fundays — plus on-site parking (and recommended ride-share). Décor is playful and nostalgic, with vintage celebrity photos lining the bar and a hallway to the women’s restroom featuring Hollywood leading men. Though there’s no kitchen, a rotating lineup of food trucks and local vendors (Satellite Pizza, Lupe Tortilla, Hearsay on the Go, Mr. Sizzles and Boot Shooters BBQ) supplies food and seasonal boils are planned. Sports fans get a built-in 300-inch jumbo screen and 61 oversized HDTVs, the patio is dog-friendly (with a prominent 30-foot live oak) and the location is walkable to the Waterway District, the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion and about a half-mile from The Woodlands Mall. Hours are weekdays 2 p.m.–2 a.m. and weekends 11 a.m.–2 a.m." - Brittany Britto Garley
