Fun on Belly Dancing Night (O.K. Crowd...)

by CosmoHunter2009

I used to go to the place often, but I went recently and wondered why I'd gone so much in the past. It's a nice place to meet a few friends, but it does have a slightly ecclectic crowd - and lots of college kids - more than I prefer..

The belly dancing night is fun. But the owner is not the nicest guy you'll meet. The staff could be friendlier, as well.

• Pros: Belly Dancing Night, Average Decor
• Cons: Mixed Crowd, Unfriendly Owner

Awesome Coffee House

by Krysti22gym

This place is so awesome! I go have coffee and occasionally a beer or glass of wine with friends. The atmosphere is great. In the evening, the lighting is dim and almost romantic upstairs. It's a good place to go on a date. Their coffee is delicious! Will keep going back.

• Pros: Atmosphere, coffee
• Cons: parking

A MUST place to visit!

by zoiPlat

I have to say I am really surprised by some of the negative comments about Agora. For one Agora is my favorite coffee house and wine bar. You should check out their beers; it?s not your run of the mill establishment. At night you can go and drink wine, chit chat with your friends, and maybe even meet a few people. They have this retro jukebox that has a variety of music from all over the world. I have been a customer for such a long time that over the years I have gotten to know the staff. It is not a Greek ONLY place. They welcome anybody that is willing to consume. If people are going spend only $5 in coffee and have been sitting there 6 hours, I suggest that you should find another place?..like McDonald?s!!! I hear they also have wi-fi!! There are 2 Greek bartenders and the rest are from a variety of places. It is a very international scene. You have college students to corporate lawyers digging the atmosphere. By the way, there was a comment made below calling the owner racista. Eso es pura mentira! He always treats them nicely. He also makes sure that the little Latina cleaning ladies that close up at night never walk home alone. He makes sure that some gives them a ride to their front door! There is all this drama from cheap people. The bottom line is that, they, in my opinion are the best coffee/wine place in Houston. BY THE WAY?..they also have belly dancing on WED. Check it out!

• Pros: nice place to study in the morning
• Cons: n/A
