Longest bar in Texas, massive patio, dog-friendly, food trucks
"This Woodlands offshoot of the well-known Houston bar is a must-see destination in its own right, featuring a 141-foot-long bar that’s said to be the longest in Texas. The “bigger is better” theme continues with a bevy of screens throughout the covered main bar and a massive, dog-friendly backyard patio featuring a 300-inch screen that ensures prime viewing for sports and other entertainment. Belly up to one of the rotating list of featured food trucks parked at the rear of the patio. Quench your thirst with daily drink specials, which include $4 frozens and $6 house wines on Thursdays, five hours of drink deals on Fridays, and $7 craft cocktails all day on Sundays." - Laura L. Green
"A dog- and family-friendly watering hole with a massive outdoor patio and colossal screens, anchored by what’s billed as the longest bar in Texas; it’s a weekend-and-late-night favorite thanks to frequent daily specials and weekend deals (examples include $5 bloody marys and mimosas in the morning, $7 cocktails all day Sunday, and $4 Jameson and Fireball shots in the afternoon), and it stays open until 2 a.m." - Brittany Britto Garley
"The Woodlands outpost of this popular local patio bar chain prides itself on having the longest bar in Texas, measuring in at over 140-feet. Needless to say, there is plenty of room to stretch out with a drink, including on its expansive dog-friendly patio, complete with a 300-inch jumbo screen for prime sports-watching fun." - Megha McSwain, Sean Hekmat
"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
"With three locations in the Houston area, Kirby Ice House welcomes pooches of all sizes at its outdoor patios, which are a prime place for puppy parents to imbibe, socialize, and watch a game. Kirby’s newest outpost in the Woodlands is especially roomy, with 18,000 square feet of outdoor space, multiple picnic tables, and a 30-foot live oak tree for extra shade." - Brian Gaither
