Puttery

We had a great time! The reason for the "just ok" review is because the score monitors didn't work and the Lodge and Conservatory (so you have to track your score manually. And there were no score cards at the Conservatory course...Also, the place was really toasty - they need to turn on the A/C.....Food and drinks were solid!

This was a really fun day date. The food was great and the atmosphere was amazing. There are three different courses you can do or pick from. I recommend doing all three. The library one was was my favorite though 📚

Super cute Holiday set up sister and I were able to enjoy our welcome cocktail, some appetizers and great conversation. Not too loud. The Mac and Cheese topped with smoked turkey burnt ends was soo good!! Hoping to come back for another theme and dinner.

Loved our time here! The decor is so cute! The holiday themed drinks tasted amazing! Many compliments to the staff member(can’t remember her name) who put it all together! We will be back!

I’ve been twice, once on the weekend and once on the weeknight. Vibes? Immaculate. Food and drinks? Fantastic. Highly recommend for a fun night out with friends. Yolanda at the welcome desk is so helpful and does a great job setting the tone for a fun time.

Went for the Frankenstein Mad Scientist Cocktail Lab. Fun and cute. Food was really good except the wings. Had to send them back. Decor & service was A1. Super fast and pleasant. Love that it was at the Puttery. Got a chance to putt & get groped by Frankenstein. Lol....

Food a drinks were great and the atmosphere was top notch. Beautiful decor and the music was a vibe. I went with my social club and we all said we will return!

Heads up: this is mainly a review for Frankenstein’s mad scientist cocktail lab (that’s hosted inside of Puttery) I went with my friends the weekend after Halloween which was also the last day that Puttery was offering the Frankenstein cocktail lab experience. Unfortunately, I can’t say I’d recommend it. We had reservations for roughly about a month in advance and when we arrived, we were told that they ran out of activated charcoal (which was the main feature of some drinks) and no dry ice which is also part of the experience. That being said, I decided to get the ‘It’s Alive’ drink which was recommended by the server when I asked for the sweetest cocktail. The drink was topped off with club soda upon request and it was a nice beverage overall. Thankfully, they comped a round of drinks for my group due to the shortage so I ended up ordering the Divination which was also a good choice but I enjoyed ‘It’s Alive’ better. Afterwards, my group was able to do a little bit of putt putt since it was running towards the end of the night and it wasn’t too busy. Putt putt was fun and my group had a good time. Overall, the service was good and the Halloween decorations were on point but both the food and drinks were quite expensive and it wasn’t anything special enough for my friends and I to visit again next year.

I've visited The Pottery before, but this time I came for their Holly Jolly Holiday Pop-Up Bar, and wow... it blew me away. My friends and I went right before Thanksgiving, and the moment you walk onto the first floor, you're fully transported into Christmas. The space is decked out--ornaments everywhere, twinkling lights, Christmas trees in every corner, and holiday music from every decade. It feels magical. And the themed food? Surprisingly delicious. My boyfriend and I arrived first and grabbed drinks while we waited. He ordered the Sugar & Spice Old-Fashioned, and I tried the Toasted Marshmallow. Mine tasted like a cozy cup of boozy hot chocolate--warm, sweet, and perfect for the season. Our deal included two free drinks, so those were on the house. Later, I ordered the North Pole Mule, which was a refreshing cold drink and honestly one of my favorites of the night. Once our friends arrived, we dove into food. We shared the Christmas Charcuterie Board--the cranberry jam on it was such a standout. I ordered the Cranberry Bacon Jam Sliders, which had good flavor but could've used a little more sauce to tie it all together. But the star of the night? The Smokehouse Mac & Cheese. We loved it--like, loved loved loved it. Our server, Denise, was amazing--super friendly, attentive, and always available to answer our questions or make recommendations. Overall, we had a wonderful experience at The Pottery's Holly Jolly Pop-Up. If you're looking for something festive, fun, and delicious this holiday season, I highly recommend checking it out. I believe it runs from November 22nd through mid-December, so take advantage while you can! Definitely add the Holly Jolly Pop-Up to your holiday plans.

The puttery is so cute!! Perfect for groups and hang outs with friend or larger parties. The brunch was really good. I was surprised it wasn't more packed. They had a really cute setup for the holidays downstairs by the putt putt course. I would definitely recommend coming with a group. Hopefully there is a better crowd Service was friendly attentive and welcoming. This place is situated right beside or behind B&B Butchers

AVOID THIS PLACE. NIGHTMARE EXPERIENCE. The Puttery in Houston completely ruined my birthday celebration due to total disorganization and a hostile attitude toward its customers. I had friends visiting from out of town and invited both them and local friends to play mini golf, have drinks, and eat dinner at The Puttery on 12/6/25. I made a reservation online in advance and even arrived early that day to make sure everything was arranged before my guests showed up. The hostess told me there was also a corporate event that night, but assured me we would still be able to play and have dinner. We played a round of golf and had two rounds of drinks before heading to dinner. That's when everything fell apart. We were told there were no tables available because of the corporate event. I explained to management that I had paid for a reservation -- they charge for a "play and eat" package -- and that I had confirmed this earlier. Despite that, we were ejected with no apology and no attempt to offer another solution. At least one other table, a group of well-dressed customers from River Oaks, was treated the same way and also forced to leave. Fortunately, we were able to get a last-minute table at B&B Butchers & Restaurant, where the food was excellent and the staff treated us with respect. But this debacle cost me an extra $700 out of pocket because B&B is far more expensive than what I had planned for. This week, I called The Puttery's national number and was told the local manager would contact me. She never did. I have never been treated this way by a restaurant or entertainment venue. It was deeply humiliating in front of my visiting friends, and I was completely unprepared for such a costly backup plan. I wouldn't trust The Puttery with another reservation to save my life. On top of that, the drinks were overpriced and the course itself was underwhelming. I see a lot of positive reviews here, and I honestly don't get it. This wasn't just a bad night -- their attitude toward us was absolutely toxic. Avoid this sham at all costs. There are plenty of similar places to go. Do not reward terrible customer service by giving them your money.

We popped into their seasonal Holly Jolly pop up tonight. Important to note: - RSVP is required, and is 90 minutes - but wasn't enforced - $22pp - Parking in the area is terrible so plan ahead for parking issues or car share Our RSVP was 6pm. Plenty of table top and bar seating was available - at this time.Decor was over the top as you would expect for this seasonal event, with plenty of photo ops! They have a select menu for the holly jolly party, but their entire menu is available. We had the Jolly Pear 75 - highly recommend. I would caution against the Toasted Marshmallow - unless you like knowing the waitstaff actually blows on your food. I watched one specific server light the marshmallows - for the toasted effect - then blow multiple times on the marshmallows - to put the flame out. The party next to us witnessed the same thing. So...that was yuck. Also noticed one of the bartenders playing with her hair, while behind the bar, then proceeding to make drinks - wo washing her hands. So decor and overall people vibe was fun. Waitstaff behavior complete turnoff...which makes going back highly unlikely.

Fun team building experience. Went for an event work event. Signage in the lobby and the hostess directed our group to where light bites were set up. Climbed the stairs to the private space reserved for our Women in Medicine party. The high tops and cozy couches were great. The food was also very good. Chicken sliders, chips with guacamole, veggie spring rolls and veggies pizza. Nice touch to bring to go boxes for lunch the next day as there still was quite a bit of food out as we finished the networking event. I had a sparking water with lemonade for my non-alcoholic beverage. The Lodge mini golf course was so cute. Got a few 2s, but some of the holes were impossible for our group of four. Still fun as were fumbled our way through the course. Team building for sure. Loved the Halloween creepy decorations that were still out. The bar was quite decked out for the holidays, but will come down in a day or two as it was already November when we had our event. Free parking was available in the lot across the street. Sort of a challenge to find the entry, but this also created a second layer of team building as I directed my lost colleagues how to enter. Loved this event, but if you were headed here for a date, the mini golf seems a bit steep. $18 for 9 holes. There are 1/2 mini golf after dark specials that pop up from time to time.

The service from Skyler, the bartender was awful. Clearly she has some anxiety today. And she took it out on the customers. It was all over her face in her tone. Johnny was a good waiter small issue with the food Tyrone. The chef came out and made everything better. very nice ambience.

This place is awesome! We heard about it from a friend and decided to check it out on a Friday night. Some folks had reserved the first floor for a Halloween party but we were still able to get drinks on the second floor and check out all the courses. Parking was easy, we snagged some street parking across from the building. We walked in and purchased the all access wristbands to check out all the courses. We made our way upstairs and loved the vibe - great music, a lively bar with many places to sit and lounge if you're taking a break between courses. We grabbed a couple drinks - the Tranquilizer was our absolute fave! It was fruit-forward, creamy and delicious. We were able to carry our drinks along the course. We made our way through all 3 courses - they were all so fun! My favorite was the Ski-themed one - some of those stations were really tough but we had a blast trying them out. You can keep score by marking on the tablets by each station. After some intense rounds, J. was declared the winner but I was a close second! A few of the courses had stations where the tablet wasn't working, but they had paper and pencil available if you wanted to mark your score. For a Friday night, it was predictably pretty busy but we didn't have to wait too long between each station. This is an awesome mini golf spot, the best I've been to so far! I really like that you can play the courses multiple times and the variety of themes. Their drinks are also phenomenal! As I was writing this review I saw on their website that they offer a Happy Hour which I'm definitely going to try - after all, the Tranquilizer is an option on there. Definitely check this place out!

Had the worst experience tonight at Frankenstein Mad scientist lab at the Houston Puttery tonight. Upon arrival although the ambience was cool, the place was designed so cool, and it was very themed the service was really poor they constantly forgot to bring me my order when I had ordered and the quality of food was extremely poor and very cold. I would suggest for you to save your money and not try this experience and also to not trust the ads on social media for this place. This place needs to invest a lot in training personnel in customer service as that's what makes or break a business. I do not believe I will be back.

Didn't try the food, but enjoyed the 3 mini golf courses--2 upstairs and one downstairs. Service was, poor--but ok at the bar itself--you must go to bar to order. Glasses were piled up everywhere along the courses no one bothered to pick up--like about 30-40 empty glasses/drinks, which is a bit much to just have lying around. Would've enjoyed this more if there wasn't children around (about 5-6 in front of us), but that's just me. I prefer adulting in adult places. I'm sure it gets busy at night so I'd suggest going earlier in the day. Cute ambiance, very large place, overpriced drinks. I did enjoy myself though, its just very pricey--be prepared to spend no less than $100

First date night here and it was bomb! Such a vibe and it was really fun night out. The library area was dope af and prolly the easier one for me. Until the drinks kicked in. We even took some really cute pictures and the lady brought back every last one in a pretty frame lol $20 only cash if you want it. We kicked it in the swings for a bit upstairs too

Review from September. I went to Puttery to celebrate my 35th and I had a blast! It was my first time here and I appreciated the chill vibe and the wonderful service. It wasn't uncomfortably packed, however there were a few larger groups that were also celebrating. The price point was reasonable as well, which is much appreciated. This is definitely a place I'd return to. We ordered a bottle of Prosecco and indulged in mimosas. Additionally, I had an espresso martini! It was on point! Worth it and definitely going back!

This place was a nice upscale vibe with great music, food and drinks. I wanted to order the salmon miso, but it was my "off day" so I ordered pizza and lemon pepper wings instead and they were so flavorful. And comfortable seating. They have two stories of cook put-put golf courses. We arrived late so only made it through one. Wish we had time to go through more, so highly recommend if you want to go through all three arrive sooner and give yourself at least 2.5-3 hours (if you want to enjoy food too and golf all three). Overall had fun and would come again! Highly recommend!

Great place for a date. I came with my girlfriend on a cloudy Friday afternoon. There was plenty of parking spaces at the lot across the street. It was $30 for the two of us for unlimited play across the three 9-hole courses. I'd say that's a great deal, especially if you like to take your time or also plan to drink/dine as well. I'd say I'm around average at mini-golf. My girlfriend has supposedly played before. Though I'm honestly a bit doubtful after seeing her play. I swear I saw her hold the club from the opposite end at first. Regardless, all three courses were fun in their own way with a unique theme - suitable for all levels! Library was probably my favorite. It was straightforward to play through. Conservatory was apparently the easiest one. Though there were some pretty hard holes. Lodge was easily the hardest. We stopped keeping score early on haha. Although these modern indoor mini-golf courses may not necessarily be the best for a traditional mini-golf experience, I think they offer their own fun twist. I enjoyed that there was a convenient screen to keep track of the score as you go through each course. They were easy to use. I'd imagine it especially comes in handy if you have a drink and have a lot on your hands. There were plenty of places to put your things down if you have a purse or food that you're carrying as well. Last thing I want to note is that the staff was nice. The gentleman at the bar upstairs was especially kind. We didn't get any drinks or food this time but it looks like there are many options that can suit everyone.

Puttery is a miniature golf course and bar located in the Heights. They have different locations around Houston with different courses at each location. There are 3 different mini golf courses with 8-9 holes on each course at this location. Each course has a different theme, and they are decorated well. The first course we went to was a Japanese-themed course with a bridge, koi fish, and cherry blossoms. The second course was library, dark academia themed with ghosts and spiders in time for Halloween. The third course was a ski and winter resort. There were three huge bars--2 on second floor and one on the bottom. Although the courses were decorated nicely, and I liked how each has their own individual theme, I do think the courses are very small. It's miniature golf alright. They put 80% more emphasis on the bars, as they are huge and take up more space than the courses to the point where there were more people waiting in line for the courses than the bars. I wished they had more courses or made them a bit bigger compared to the bars. The courses felt small, and there was not much space between each hole while we waited for the party in front of us to finish. Score are kept tracked on the machines. However, the machines on the library course had a technical difficulty, and our scores were manually tracked by paper. Overall, the place is a huge bar with a side of mini golf, but everything was decorated nicely and great for photos.

I was invited to a holiday showcase because I plan events for work. I got there early and the food was being put out. The event was from 4-7 and you could come and go. I was waiting on some friends to join but met a couple of nice ladies beforehand. I ate immediately, I enjoyed the chicken and the green beans. The sangria was good and they had a nice array of holiday cocktails. I am not a whiskey drinker but enjoyed the sangria. Of all the food choices, my least favorite was the salmon. It was dry. This was their holiday menu but my opinion is that the food is too heavy for a place like this. If people are playing golf, they want sliders, pizza, chips and dips, chicken fingers, etc. The holiday drink choices were good and festive. We met Chris and Emily was the bartender. Megan set everything up and our golf hostess was super nice. I didn't get her name. The servers were very helpful too. I actually enjoyed the pumpkin cheesecake too. The course we played was nice and we had fun. This course was on the first floor.

This is a great option for entertainment near downtown that won't break the bank. It is very spacious inside with 3 stories, 3 9-hole courses, at least 3 bars available (only 1 open during my visit), and friendly staff. The holes range from basic to pretty challenging. There are even a couple of funny holes. Obviously this is a cool spot for friends, family, company gatherings, or a Xmas party gathering, as I visited during the holidays and saw that numerous companies had reserved spaces throughout to hold their party. The parking is kind of strange but available at least. There is limited street parking behind the building (1 block off Washington), otherwise you are likely going to park in the large parking lot 1 block north and walk back to the Puttery. I didn't try the food during my visit, but they do have a full kitchen at least if you get hungry while playing or just come hungry. The layout of the courses and building is sort of confusing. I recommend walking it all out first to get an idea of the layout before starting to play. There are 1-2 holes where the next hole is not quite obvious, but the good part is the screens at the next hole each time will light up your parties current score to sort of guide you.

This place a great vibe for adults. My work hosted our Christmas gathering here. We had the upstairs for gathering, amazing food and private putt putt. All the staff were attentive and kind! They had the best playlist, and themed areas. They have plenty of parking as well so you are not fighting to park on the street or with neighboring businesses.

Was super easy to book a reservations online. Walked in and they asked up if we wanted to try easy, medium or hard. I feel like everyone just chooses medium so the line for those room was quite long. We made friends with the in front and behind us as they was a small wait at each hole and you waited for the group ahead to finish. But all and all we had a good time and the room was unique with some many things to look at while your going through the course.

Excellent drinks and service! Came here last week for a company Christmas party. We all had an absolute blast, and the drinks were on point. I had (several) spicy margaritas and absolutely loved them. All the bartenders and servers were extremely helpful and nice. The actual golf or putting area was smaller than I expected, but everything was super cute and themed. I would definitely go back, and our office is looking forward to coming here in the summer!

Really enjoyed this adult put put golfing experience. There's multiple rooms for golfing with various course challenges. It's a pretty efficient system to play on teams, coupled up, or solo. There were bars with ample seating at the top part of the venue indoors & outdoors. The food and drink choices are pretty diverse, with options for mocktails & non meat items. My friends & I had a really good time and the DJ was live. I would suggest getting the unlimited gaming. It's totally worth it. There is a big parking lot for FREE across from the entrance. Perfect for family, friends, & date night vibes.

Went for mothers day brunch. It was fun but seemed a bit disorganized as we got there at 10 for all you could golf and eat. Food wasn't ready. Service seemed a tad slow even though there were limited seating for the holiday. I would go back on a date night type thing though and try again.

We had a good time at the Puttery. It was nicely decorated and the courses ranged in difficulty. The downside for me was the wait time. I'm not sure I'd return as it could take forever to get through the courses, especially on a weekend. There were moments where we got backed up and there wasn't lots of space to wait. We ultimately didn't even go to the last set of obstacles in the library because it was taking so long and we just wanted to eat at that point. I'd come back to try the library but would just do that.

Great bar- horrible putting designs. Compared to many places we've been, these are the most poorly designed courses. It requires no skill or strategy- basically dumb luck. There's hardly a chance for a hole in one on any hole. Also, it does not cater to lefties due to the props & walls- literally no way to putt. This was $40 down the hole.

Highly anticlimactic and underwhelming. Minimal decoration, the staff provided average service and did not know the theme drinks nor provided any information about the activities of the night. Would not recommend and will not be going again.

Got here late on a Friday night, and I wish we were able to come earlier! There are two different courses (we only got to do one) and we were able to finish pretty quickly. We also got some drinks before playing. The drinks were super strong and they were quite large. It was pretty busy so it took a while before someone was able to help us set up our game, which was the only downside. The vibes here are great, and I love the interior!

Leaving a review for the Frankenstein Mad Scientist experience. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. Everything was half assed. It was literally just a decorated bar. All of the staff was less than friendly and definitely not playing into "the experience". There was no fun lights, it wasn't dark, no fun Halloween music or sound effects. SERIOUSLY DISAPPOINTING. I've been here for the golfing but I definitely never will.

I would not recommend Puttery. The service here wasn't great, and we couldn't actually play mini-golf all night. Me and a few friends made a reservation for a Wednesday night (for someone's birthday). When we arrived, the hostess told us that due to several (~5) work events, the times we could use the putt-putt courses were limited. Also - almost every single table in the business was reserved for work events (I counted 5 tables that weren't reserved). We couldn't find a table big enough for our entire group. What's the point of making a reservation if you can't actually play or even sit anywhere?? For the 3 hours we were there, we were able to play once.... Almost every course was reserved for a work event when we'd go to check on it... Some employees were nice to use, but a few were rude/impatient when we'd ask questions. The decor was nice though! Overall, I wouldn't go back here.

Took there time at the beginning, but the drinks and food where delicious! Very clean and nice inside and out!

Had a date here a few months ago and decided to do this spot since I love golf and she loves drinks. I arrived before she did and found a timeslot near her time of arrival which is what I booked. While walk-ins are allowed, it's best to reserve ahead of time for this since they get packed according to the host stand. The bar and putting are on the second floor mainly. The bar area has some cool cocktails and a solid food choices; although we didn't get food, we saw the plates coming out and they looked tasty. As for drinks, I started with an ol' fashioned which was tasty. During our putting activity, I ordered a Collosus of New York cocktail; strong but what I needed after our round. There's also a balcony area outside on the second floor where you can get a view of the Heights neighborhood. So the putting courses consist of three different themes you can choose from. We went with the Library theme since it had this elegant European feel with the bookshelves and furniture exhibits. We found it quite fun with the course at each hole; especially since I won against her! Only issue I had was getting our drinks out properly. My Collosus of New York cocktail and my date's margarita took a long time to reach us. We ordered those around hole 2-3 and we didn't receive them until after we finished our 9-hole course. I couldn't find our server until after we finished and seemed like he had this 'aha' moment where he realized I ordered something. While we had fun aside from our round of drinks taking a while, I found the cost overall to outweigh the value you get. Drinks, while tasty, are a bit pricy and you're better off ordering them at the bar instead of during playing. Also $20 per person is excessive for only 9 holes in my opinion. I'm open to returning to try the food and experience the other courses although it's not something I'd go out of my way for.

My first visit was on Valentine's Day! The place was romantically decorated. The ambience was sensual. We paid for the Valentines Day couple's special, which gave us one drink each, an appetizer, two entrées and shareable dessert. The food was amazing. My cocktail was the grand lemon drop which was exquisite. Hubby had the London calling. We loved our our cocktails so much we had more than a few. For our entree, I had the miso salmon, and my hubby had the creamy Cajun Alfredo. For dessert we had the peach cobbler and it was the perfect ending to our dinner. After dinner, we played the course which was specifically decorated for Valentine's Day. Although it did get crowded once we've started playing the course, but everyone was in a really happy mood. Everyone was patient and didn't rush each other. We meet a few cool couples while playing and we had a great time.

Fallen off management. The first two time times visiting were great! It was new and fresh and fun. The food was great, the service was great. The third visit was just BAD! Poor service, slow service, rancid dessert that I spit out and reported to the bartenders who removed the dessert from the bill. I ended up with food poisoning and I called the reception line the next day at 4pm to let them know which was likely a call center because they asked what location it was for. I received a call back confirming the location from the reception team and they stated a manager would call me back. 5 days later and nobody from this location has even attempted to call me back. I'm disappointed in the lack of effort from this location and hope it returns to a great place to visit and spend my money/time.

Recently visited this location and honestly idk what to say. From walking in the door I was not greeted. Made my way to the bar come to find out that the bar downstairs was closed. Made my way up to their second floor and sat down order some food and I really have good things to say about the food. But staff behind the bar was on their phones and not attentive to guest. My biggest issue was when I seen the staff eating food behind the bar and not washing their hands and making drinks right after. Looks like management allows those behaviors since I believe they were doing the same. The vibe seem nice if only staff was attentive. I rather go to HOLEY MOLEY or PUTTSHACK Will NoT be visiting this establishment

A blend of technology and interactive themed games makes for an interesting night. The venue itself is quite a piece of art! If you are an influencer, I can see lots of opportunities for picture taking here. The miniature golf area itself is also fun, but very crowded and could take some wait to get to your turn. There are a total of nine different mini golf stations within the room, and everyone have to take turns to sequentially go through the same nine stations to accumulate scores. I can see this being a fun activity for date night, but likely not the best idea to do with large groups unless you find a way to reserve the whole space to yourself. The people who designed the area obviously appreciate good details. Each station comes with a drink holder and purse holder and there are plenty of seating spread around the room in case you'd like to sit while you wait your turn. There's also a bar that serves themed drinks made to order; all you have to do is order through a QR code. An attendant will be surveying the area and able to help take pics for you/your group as well. Overall, it was a fun experience.

Had a date night here with my boyfriend and the three courses were very cool! You can schedule a time slot (which we did) and choose which order you do the different courses in. The only downside is the time we booked was veryyyy busy. The first course we did was the downstairs one which was really pretty and went by quickly and there are people walking around taking orders for drinks which I found very convenient! We went upstairs to look at the other two courses and that's when we realized how busy it was. Our time slot was around 9pm and we were stuck waiting for the putters to be restocked because there was so many people and once we were in there was a long line for every hole. We ended up cutting our time short in the third course because it was nearing midnight and we were still waiting in line which was a bummer since we did reserve a slot and paid for the unlimited mini golf. I will say though there is a lot of detail put into each course and finding the small cool things made the wait time not as boring!

I've seen the social media ads for this Puttery and always wondered when I would visit this place. Unbeknownst to me, while visiting Platypus Brewery, Puttery Houston was a stone's throw away. Soon after a few brews, we landed at Puttery. The interior of this place is absolutely captivating and it attacks you on all your senses. There are so many things to inspect, and look at even at the entrance/lobby area. There are two areas for you to do some putting, the library and the lodge. Needless to say, there is a premium price point of ~$20 per person for 9 holes. Each putting hole wasn't exactly hard or challenging, however it was very decorated and the ambience was quite cozy and welcoming. You'll have a server that will occasionally come around to tend to your food/drink needs. But with only 9 holes, it was quite short lived. People don't come to Puttery for putt putts, but more for the IG scenes, the booze, bar, food and hang out vibes. The putting is just another activity to do while mildly inebriated. Its all for the fun anyways, but get ready to pay a premium price for it.

Overall this was a fun place for date night, and I would recommend however, there are some things that can be improved for a better experience. They have 2 floors and each has its own bar and putt putt course. Service: We opted to have dinner prior to going to play. It took forever for us to get a server and when we went to the bar they told us we had to wait on the server. Once we finally ordered our food, it took forever for them to bring it out. We got the dessert first and once the rest of the food came out we had to eat our food fast because our game time was coming up. The drinks came out pretty fast. Food/Drinks: We had a pepperoni & jalapeño pizza, wings, margaritas, and the dessert jar trio. The pizza was just ok but a large portion definitely shareable, we really wings enjoyed the wings and the margaritas, and the desserts were good as well. Put Put Course: We chose the Lodge. It was smaller than expected but there were only 2 other couples there so it was fine. The course was fun and got challenging the further along you went. They do allow you to order drinks in the course which was nice.

Went here for my girlfriend's birthday and we had a blast! The service was outstanding (they take orders/serve while you put so you don't have to bother with going to the bar). The food was also awesome, especially the pizza with the white sauce! The puttputt was epic and the unique themes and decor of each course made it an extra special experience. My only negative feedback was that the drinks and food were on the pricier side. However, you are getting a great experience that you cannot find elsewhere - justifying the cost

Reviewing this bc I was very mislead by the other reviews. I like the concept, but execution was off. I've seen this place advertised and really wanted to try it out. The 3 short putt courses are literally right on top of each other, in a lot of cases one hole ending right where the next starts, so groups were standing on your course with no where else to go until they'd finished the next. It bottlenecks very quickly, sometimes had about 10-15min waiting between holes before we could go. The digital scorecards keep people from skipping around, but that almost seemed like a bad concept considering some groups were stopped waiting for another player to come back from the bar before they could move on to the next course. They strongly suggest drinking while playing (to distract you from the small, cramped putt areas probably) but you can stand at the empty bar with cash out in your hand and still be completely ignored by the bar tenders. I ended up passing on the $15 cocktails altogether because I couldn't get anyone to give me the time of day while literally standing right in front of them. My friend who arrived 10min after me was served while I was still waiting, but when he tried to get a 2nd drink at the empty bar no one would come over to him. Only 2 customers at the bar (a couple) and my friend stood around again almost 10min to be able to close out. Maybe this is just the normal here and this was considered quick service compared to a packed night. Decided to eat elsewhere because of all this, so can't say anything about the food. The people cleaning up the glasses and replenishing the balls were quick and efficient (hence the 2 stars vs 1), but only so much you can do when it comes to people constantly spilling drinks all over the courses. A lot of sticky and wet areas. Overall, this might be a good place for a private party if you get the courses all to yourself and it was nice that it was 18+. Appreciated the variety of drinks on the menu (didn't get to try any), but bar service was bad and would be a nightmare to deal with this on a busy night. If your whole business plan is to keep people drinking so they aren't bothered by the long waits on small courses, you need to be able to get them drinks instead of deterring it. Maybe the plan is to want them to leave quicker after already getting the $30 entry fee, not sure. Wouldn't recommend as a Friday/weekend activity or if you have a group of people. Bring your own hand sanitizer, all of theirs are empty and the putters get sticky.

Pretty freaking great spot, I'll tell ya. I came here with some colleagues for a work event and it was awesome. Drinks were a little overpriced but otherwise the vibe was awesome. Service was great too. Great for a date night. Will be back!

Fore! My friends and I had SUCH a good time at Puttery! We were a large group, so we started the day with shared plates and each of the food offerings was yummy. We also had some of the delicious house cocktails and they were well balanced and delicious. Our group broke into teams of four and worked our way through what I would call the Library room. Who knew that miniature, indoor golf could be so fun?! We laughed our way through the difficult holes and cheered one another on in the especially challenging ones. Be forewarned, the last hole is a literal bear. Once our rounds were complete, we transitioned to the bar area where the staff kept the party going and the music flowing. If we weren't their favorite guests ever, we had to be a close second. I grabbed a meal to go for later, and it was just as good as the earlier appetizers had been. This is definitely a stop that I'll make again on my next visit to Houston!

I had a wonderful experience at the Puttery Houston. I did make a reservation beforehand but it was probably not necessary since there were only 2 of us and not a busy night. If you have a larger group, I would definitely recommend making a reservation. The checkin process was quickly and easy and we immediately got to playing. I would recommend paying for all three courses because they go faster than you think unless you have a large group. We were able to order drinks while we were playing and had a very attentive server. After we finished, we ordered a pizza and chilled in the dining area. You can get a table and have full dinner if you like.

Puttery was so awesome! I normally don't enjoy mini golf as I find it boring. But coming here made it so much fun. We went on a Wednesday which worked out perfectly because they have a deal where you get to play in all sections for only $20/person! It was a blast. It was beautifully decorated everywhere you walked, whoever created it clearly put a lot of thought into presentation and detail. We didn't eat food but the drinks were awesome. All of the rooms are different themes and the holes are very creatively constructed. I loved this and can't wait to come back with friends or on another date!

I literal only came to yelp just to write a review on this restaurant because I'm pissed, SERVICE IS BAD, bartendes girl are very rude with you.But I'm honest, the guys on front were very nice and helpful and also the bartender guy that also took care of us, but not the girls, they are sloppy and rude at least the one bartender that took care of us.

I just had the worst experience with the waitstaff that served between noon and 3PM during a scheduled BRUNCH event today. The disgusting attitude, the dismissive behavior, and the complete rudeness of the girl behind the bar with the batwing lashes was horrible. Even her manager could not control her. I know that she was upset that she had to serve upscale black women on a Sunday brunch during a curated event, but her attitude made me cancel my entire order and go to my usual brunch spot. We are allowed to ask you if we can add fruit or bacon to our order. We are allowed to ask you what type of mimosas do you have? If someone asked you to add fruit or bacon, your response should not be, "I dunno" or "I guess". We do not know the drink menu or the juices you have for mimosas that's why we are asking you. The complete disrespect the slow behavior, the eye rolling, the hard breathing the inability to look us in the eye or answer questions without sucking her teeth and flapping her batwing lashes forced me to cancel a $40 order and go down the street to a much better establishment in Houston, where waitstaff is not rude. I understand that she's a server and did not want to serve black upscale women on a Sunday at a carefully created BRUNCH, but she needs to be fired before she insults the wrong group of people. If she does not like her job in this economy, she should quit for one will not be coming back to PUTTERY based on the poor menu, the overpriced drinks and her disgusting behavior. You really need to do something about these waitstaff recently the way they show up is disrespectful and rude and they take that out on us the customers. We were trying to do PUTTERY a favor by having an event there, but clearly our business is not appreciated. I for one will never return. There are many other golf experiences luckily in the Houston area, downtown midtown and elsewhere that will appreciate us and will not allow waitstaff with attitude to disrespect us.

Went for Holly Jolly and the drinks were "ok". Asked for an egg nog drink and got an old fashion instead. When I questioned the drink the waitress said that it was egg nog and it clearly wasn't. Some bar education needs to be had. Also most importantly the area is a total tow zone. Made the mistake of parking on the side of the street where others cars were parked and got towed. Seems like Puttery is in on it. They were quick to give us the info on how to get out car back. Someone was watching and towing. Not going back.

Our group of four was looking for something fun to do on a Saturday afternoon. Puttery takes walk ins, but if you don't have a reservation, there's a good chance you'll have to wait before you can play. We walked in around 4p. It took a few minutes of waiting in line at the main desk. Once we were able to pay, we had to wait about an hour before we could play. Luckily they have three different bar/dining areas to hang out in while you wait. We ended up going to one of the bar areas on the second floor. We didn't have any food, but we all ordered drinks. I had the Tasty Green and it was good. While we were having drinks, someone turned the music up so loud that we couldn't even hear each other. We thought about going to one of the patios (they have one upstairs and one downstairs), but it was a bit chilly that day. Once it was time for us to go play, we made our way to The Lodge (located on the second floor) which is a ski lodge theme. It's $18 per person per course (9-holes). They have three courses to choose from (the others are the Library and the Conservatory). Each course has it's own specialty drink menu. They have QR codes at the entrance that you can scan so you can see the menu. We were greeted by an upbeat staff. The two employees who we interacted with the most were Brandy and JT. They were both lit lol. They were dancing and cracking jokes, and just having a good time. Brandy explained the scoring system and got us set up with our equipment. The digital score card moves with the group to each hole which is cool. Each person gets up to 6 tries. While we played, I ordered a Tito's and Tonic from JT. It took some time for him to come to us because it was so busy in the room. The rooms are kind of small. It's amazing that they are able to squeeze 9 holes into the space. There were times when we would be standing in the way of someone or someone would be standing in our way. Everyone was really nice though. The course doesn't take long to play, but because of the crowd, we would sometimes have to wait for the group in front of us. As we were leaving the Lodge, they had a DJ in the dining area on the 2nd floor and people were dancing. This place is a lot of fun! It's great for small or large groups. I'm looking forward to coming back so I can play the other two courses.

Super Fun, New Concept! Wished there was more. This place is huge!! There is an upstairs and a downstairs. The downstairs area was closed when I went. However, that didn't take away from the experience at all. We had the option of choosing between the Lodge and Library courses to which the front desk suggested the Library. We headed upstairs to find a 2 massive lounge/bar areas each with their own balconies. It was absolutely stunning. We were encouraged to explore the space while we waiting for our designated time to play. The place definitely bigger than looks, great for big parties and social gatherings. They offer a full bar and food as well. Another notable addition is that servers are available all throughout the floor including the course, so they save you from having to make continuous trips back and forth to the bar. The course is as picturesque as the rest of Puttery. Each course is 9 holes, which we thought was a bit short, but was super fun nonetheless. I'd say The Library was more immersive, and The Lodge was more challenging. It took us about 30-40 mins to get through the course. Afterwards, we ended up taking a bunch of pictures - make sure to bring your best smiles because you'll definitely want to have your cameras out. I'd also highly recommend making a reservation before hand to avoid the wait. Overall, we really enjoyed this new concept. It was fresh and memorable. The staff was super sweet and accommodating. We'll be back here with all of our friends next time.

I had been wanting to try Puttery since before it opened. I saw it featured on Houston Life. A few of my friends from Dallas said they liked it. It's a cool concept with bars on multiple floors. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor patio seating. You can also order drinks as you play the game. Each area on the two floors has a different, unique design like art deco. The second floor had a large dance floor. There's three mini golf scenarios/courses - The Lodge, The Library, and The Conservatory. I went with my Yelp elite friends post a Yelp elite event. We originally wanted to go bowling but settled on this when the bowling lanes at Little Woodrow's at Shepherd weren't working. The mini golf scenarios/courses has 9 holes for $18. We waited about an hour before seeing the hostess at The Lodge. I had a non alcoholic cocktail called Spicy Piña Rickey. It had pineapple, lime, habanero, and soda. A little sweet and tart. I liked the dried pineapple on the top. The course itself was decorated nicely like you were out skiing somewhere. The scoring was electronic. Each person gets 6 tries before putting in the number. Person with the lowest number wins. I will say that it was tricky for me. It would get stuck on the edge which made it harder to play. Some of the holes were on an incline or around difficult obstacles. Don't get me wrong, but it can be done! I just don't have much experience with mini golf. I still had a great time. Shoutout to Brandi at The Lodge for getting down and dancing with us when we first arrived! It made it much more fun! The cons would be the tight street parking and loud music. The playlist was great, but it was so loud, you had to yell at the person sitting next to you just to have a conversation. I'd go back to see the other courses and maybe try the food. Since we came from a food event, we opted not to.
