Whole Foods Brewing Co.

For some reason operating hours posted for this former brewery/bar still show even though Google accepted my edit 4 days ago, on August 22 that this business is permanently closed. Don't let Google fool you! You will not get service here because they have no products (nor any employees) in the bar. I have confirmed, in person, with Whole Foods employees that it is closed. Please check my photos. This is what the bar looks like, day and night.

Whoever had the genius idea of not only putting a bar inside a food store, but their very own microbrewery, deserves a huge bonus. Absolutely brilliant. Visited one in Dallas last week - and now this one in Houston. Bartender was super friendly, generous with the samples and the beer is much better than other bars. Wish the UK adopted this bar-in-supermarket idea

A brewery inside of your Whole Foods? This was the first time I had stepped foot inside one of these and I was transported to happiness. Their bartender was freakin great and the local beer selection was top notch as well. I got to try a few of their beers and my favorite was their Smores stout. The smell was so powerful and smelled good and the taste accompanied it as well.

This is literally my favorite brewery in Houston. If you're looking for craft beers that are not only well-made, but made with heart. Look no further! The brewmaster always has something incredible lined up on tap or in the fridge if you want crowler! The staff at the bar is lovely too.

Update: this is closed now. My beloved micro brewery added so much character to this Whole Foods. Solid options and perfect in so many ways. Will be missed. Hope WF sees business sense to bring back soon

I the beers are as hearty as when they first opened, I stop by if I'm in the area cause you can drink inside a grocery store. Great craft beers, cool like place and it's another one of those interesting spots in Houston.

Management ran the brewer off! No more Whole Foods Brewing here; it is now just a bar…come and get a pint or a 13 ounce of what they have left before it’s all gone. No more crawlers but you can buy a 64 ounce growler. On tap now they have Side Eye (9 ABV), a fruited sour, and the Defiant Pilsner…after that the Whole Foods Brewing branded beer is all gone. Whole Foods bars no longer exist in the Houston area so this former brewery, it seems, no longer fits into the Whole Foods business model. My suggestion is for you to get your butt here while it still exists because my instinct says they will shut this spot down too next year if not before. This place used to be incredible but the new model has had it out for the bars from the start, unfortunately!

Interesting spot. Sometimes they have internally brewed stuff but otherwise fill their menu up with very solid craft beer selections from microbreweries around the state (and country). Grabbed Zombie Break from turning Point, and they had stuff from Continental Divide and some Houston local stuff too. Guy behind the bar said you could buy a six pack from the store and drink it there while watching the game or just relaxing, which was pretty cool. Entrance is the main entrance for Whole Foods and then turn left.
