High Five

This is the last place I expected to find incredible craft cocktails. The people working here clearly care a lot. The prices are incredible. And the vibes are great.

The drinks are amazing! Truly craft cocktails. Will is the best part of High Five. I love meeting here during the day with my friends that have kids. The vibe changes after 8 pm and there are not many kids. Me and my husband like coming at this time when it’s just us.

I really enjoy trying new cocktails, and everything I’ve tried here tastes amazing: well-balanced, high quality liquors, creative combos. Current fave is Three Piece Suit, but don’t sleep on the Mezcal Negroni. Will and his crew always make us feel welcomed and I leave happier than I came in. Pretty hard to beat, even when it’s hot as hell outside (they have swamp coolers!).

High Five is an incredible bar with exceptional drinks, which is a stunning achievement considering that the bartenders craft each cocktail inside Houston’s smallest bar (a literal shipping container!). It’s been awesome to see how Will (the owner, a bartender, and an awesome guy) has created a menu that features over 20 original and delicious cocktails. I’ve tried everything on the menu—some of my favorites are the Golden Boy, Slapshot Regatta, and the Rum Swizzle. The bartenders can also make classics and drinks to order, but keep in mind they’re somewhat limited by the small space. No matter how good the drinks are, I won’t return to a bar if the service isn’t good. Will is an amazing bartender who is so much fun to talk to about literally anything, and his bartenders (Riley, Rojas, and Dom) are incredible in their own right and such a blast to talk with. In short, High Five is my new home away from home where I’m always welcomed as a friend. I can’t wait to return to try whatever new drinks that Will and his team are working on.

Amazing Bloody Mary’s with a homemade mix. It is a bit spicy, but oh so good! They have so much more than what’s on the menu so just ask. Everything our party had was awesome. Will is the owner/operator/bartender, and he is super friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend!

I love high five! Will, the owner, puts so much detail into the drinks! I’ve never had a bad drink, my favorite is the pina colada right now. It’s so delicious, the consistency is perfect, the flavor is on point. Nothing I would change. So go try one!!! Side note: they also offer mocktails!! 💗

Drinks were great! The bar tender gave me a great suggestion since I didn’t really know what I wanted. I had the Up Top Sunrise and it was great, very refreshing.

Great service. I asked what their marg was and the guy said it’s the real deal. He was correct. Fantastic drink, will come back for another.

Small bar, amazing drinks. You can order at the bar and sit among the kitschy astroturf and Christmas lights. It has colorful benches and seating in the expansive front yard. I had the orange foam drink. It was a perfectly balanced piece of slushy goodness. The service is super fast and really friendly. If you want something different, fun and a little quirky come here.

Great drinks and good vibes! There is a full bar so any cocktail your heart desires can be made. The bartender was really nice and has great suggestions for the surrounding restaurants.
