Post Houston, the transformed former post office, is a vibrant hub featuring a diverse food hall and an expansive rooftop park with stunning skyline views, perfect for gathering and exploring the local culinary scene.
"This entertainment venue is a bundle of activity, no matter the day. Post Market, its on-site food hall, offers a casual dining experience with multiple food vendors, meaning if you or your companion for the night are picky, there’s plenty to choose from. Find sustenance at the new sushi restaurant KWO, South American restaurant Andes Cafe, or lauded West African restaurant Chopnblok. Then, find something to get into. For a more serene experience, head to the rooftop to check out the Downtown skyline (be sure to check Post’s website to learn about special events), or grab a coffee at Eden Plant Co., a lush, plant-filled coffee shop known for its jazz nights. If you’re feeling more rowdy, be sure to check out Art Club, the city’s newest laser-filled media art museum that also features its own bar. There’s also shopping, with a vintage shop, plus skateboard and jewelry stores. Want to capture the moment? Book a session at FotoLab." - Brittany Britto Garley
