BUDDY'S in Houston

Cool place to visit. The bartenders for super nice and even explained that some of the restrooms were unavailable due to renovation. Great selection of draft beer. A nice chill vibe for some day drinking on a Thursday afternoon. I enjoyed the chill vibes and will definitely return.

Buddy's has become my go to bar in Montrose. It really is a place where every "Buddy's" welcome. They care about the community, and not just the gay folks. Its a place straight people, white, black, Asian, Latino, male and female, would all feel welcome in. They've been trying a bunch of things lately and the addition of a trivia night looks really fun. I wasn't such a fan of the "go-go dancer" thing that I saw last time I was there. Just seemed really weird and uncomfortable. Something you'd see at Tony's corner pocket....it just ruined the laid back vibe and brought the class down a notch.  But the set up is great, the bar food is good, the steak night is great, and the drinks are good and reasonably priced. Plus they have the best bar staff in Houston and the owner is a pillar of the gay community.  Definitely the best gay bar in Houston now.

EveryBuddy's welcome! Great bar! The music isn't blaring, the drinks are yummy and are a good price, and the employees have always been friendly and helpful. The owner, Christopher, is doing his best to give back to the LGBTQ community by providing a space where everyone can feel comfortable and welcome. The steak night each Wednesday is also a wonderful addition. Recently an in-house kitchen was added, but I haven't had a chance to try any of the food. Will update the review when I do so.
