Hidden speakeasy behind candy shop serving craft cocktails
"Hidden behind a vintage candy shop, this speakeasy mixes up sweet treats for Houston bar-goers. Sip on wine and spiffy cocktails like its Watermelon High, made with tequila, fresh watermelon, lime juice, and fire bitters, or the Cocosol, a tequila cocktail composed of coconut cream, lavender syrup, and mint. But be sure to dress the part, Aye Candy has a no hats, flip flops, or jogging shorts rule and the dress code is strictly enforced." - Marcy de Luna
"I saw that this Spring Branch speakeasy will celebrate Halloween night with DJ Jaime Martinez, chocolate-covered ghost strawberries and skulls, themed cocktails like Panama Spice carajillos and the Wonkatini (a decadent chocolate-and-cream cocktail garnished with a spooky chocolate eye), and a costume contest awarding $1,000 for first place, $500 for second, and $250 for third." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Behind a candy shop loaded with classic treats is this new Spring Branch speakeasy. Live music and a beautiful backdrop with snazzy decor make for the perfect ambiance to enjoy cocktails like the rich Wonka-tini, a mix of creme de vanilla, Licor 43, heavy cream, and Ghiradelli white chocolate garnished with fine chocolate, or the mezcal- and pineapple-loaded Gold Escalade. Wine, beer, and Champagne are also available, but if you’re looking for a quick launch to the night, start with its buzzy shots, like its Moraditas, made with tequila, orange liqueur, lime, and orange bitters." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Experience martini magic at this new candy-themed Spring Branch speakeasy. The Espresso Flor martini is made with Flor de Cana’s 12-year-old rum, espresso, and turbinado, before it’s garnished with a dash of cocoa powder and coffee beans." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Hidden behind an old-school sweets shop in Spring Branch, Aye Candy is the latest speakeasy in Houston. The Mexico City-inspired bar dresses up with dim lighting and plush upholstery and expects guests to follow suit (no flip-flops allowed). The cocktail menu features drinks like a vanilla Old Fashioned and espresso martinis to pair with the Butterfingers." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
