"PH Cocktails in Wedgewood-Houston is one of the better cocktail spots in town that still feels like a truly accessible neighborhood bar. The bartenders recognize you after your first visit, and the bright, modern space feels open and communal. The drink menu is all about unexpected combinations, like their version of a Tequila Mockingbird that's less sweet, but still refreshing and herbaceous with Aperol and chartreuse. The food menu is a bit pricey for the portion sizes, but it includes tasty things like fried shrimp and okra alongside bar staples like wings and sliders. That said, the bar runs good Happy Hour specials, and it hosts a music Happy Hour every Friday where a DJ spins R&B, afrobeats, and hip-hop." - bailey freeman
