"What once was the Boom Boom Room is now the home of Johnny's Goldbrick. Johnny's is not a place where you're gonna have to wait in line all night. Pretty easy to belly up to the bar and order from a strong cocktail menu. Johnny's Goldbrick is a proper bar so you'll find several Texas beers on tap and not to forget the ever tasty wine list. Outfitted with retro furniture and top notch bartenders makes for a Houston Heights second home." - Manready Mercantile
"Much like a gold brick, Johnny's packs a lot of fun into its tiny little rectangular bar. Plus, it serves some of the best drinks in The Heights. Swing by any time for a dozen classics for less than $10—or $5.55 at Happy Hour—and more playful, seasonal cocktails for no more than $15. The menu here spans from fun tiki-inspired drinks that bartenders will light on fire to savory drinks with mushroom-infused rum. Johnny's operates with a come-as-you-are attitude, where neighborhood folks and anyone looking for a great drink or two can relax and not have to shout over any thumping music." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas, julie takahashi
"This Heights bar, open daily until 2 a.m., is a reliable neighborhood go-to with great music and a solid list of classic cocktails. Gimlets, Manhattans, daiquiris, and frozen margaritas are all $10 all the time. Find sustenance at the onsite food truck, aka the “snack box,” and stay keyed into the bar’s social media for information on pop-ups." - Brittany Britto Garley
"For the sixth year in a row, Johnny’s Gold Brick in The Heights is hosting their Miracle pop-up. This bar is decked out in holiday trimmings and features a sizable Christmas drink menu, including the Christmapolitan, where vodka, spiked cranberry sauce, and absinthe mist all find themselves in the same glass. Make a reservation and purchase a mug shaped like Santa’s head as a treat." - gianni greene
"The Miracle holiday pop-up has returned to Johnny’s Gold Brick, illuminating the Heights bar with Christmas lights and over-the-top holiday decor through December 31. Along with whimsical glassware and cocktails like the Christmapolitan, a Snowball Old Fashioned, and Jingle Balls Nog, expect countless photo ops to help you get in the spirit of the season. Reservations are available on Resy and are highly encouraged." - Brittany Britto Garley
