In Short – This lower Westheimer legend built its reputation on being a place where everyone can settle in for a cold drink and hot music. A cranking sound and light system, manned by Houston's top DJs, makes up for the dank interior. Music varies depending on the night, and the club has established itself as a venue for emerging and established acts. Bands like REM, the Stray Cats, Sheryl Crow, Oasis and Sevendust have rattled the rafters.
Must or Bust? Fabulous.

When it's good, it's really good. The first time I went there, I actually heard Pulp, Suede, AND Blondie, but never ever since. There are certain songs they play every single time, for instance, the NY song with Robo-Cop video or Headhunter by Front 242. Hilarity ensues. Pros include a lot of space to dance and no 'tude. No pretentiousness. I only wish they would switch up the repetitive music and throw on some Smiths, or Cult, or anything different. The drinks are no joke dee-lish and the bartenders make up for the occasional boring DJ moments. A gem in Houston ;) Very well air conditioned, good sound, lights are good, all around thumbs up; they just need to mix it up a little musically and also perhaps fix the toilets.
- Pros: air conditioned, spacious,good drinks,excellent crowd
- Cons: dirty banos, repetitive music
favorite club in the houston area!

I started going to numbers wayyyy back and it just so happens some of my best memories so far were in that place. I think it's pretty much impossible not to have fun unless you're just totally sober, in which case you'd probably just be a little freaked out. You find all types of people there so you defiantely have to be a tolerant, but I think that's what makes it so much fun. The music is amazing, drinks are cheap, and everyone is so friendly. You definately have to experience at least one night at numbers.
- Pros: Really great dancing music, drinks, overall atmosphere
- Cons: disgusting bathrooms
a houston classic

perhaps getting a little long in the tooth...certainly long past it's heyday as the splashy dance club on lower westheimer in the early 1980's before hiv changed a lot of lifestyles. numbers is always fun, and the more people the better. cover tends to fluctuate...so be prepared to spend between $2 and $10 or so to get in. i think the manager sometimes ups the cover to make up for an otherwise bad week. the place could use some sprucing up, but hey it's dark anyway and that's all part of the ambiance. one can only wonder with awe what went on in the concrete block toilet stalls in days of old. really, anyone's welcome here - tatooed goths, preppies, old timers, old rockers...young punks and yes, sort of weird folks too. the bar tenders are friendly, the dj shows are usually terrific, and the dance floor gets filled quickly with folks who love to shake to the groove. if that's not your thing, you can sit in the sideline seating, or visit an upstairs lounge. a word of warning: this place has 'character', it's not dangerous or anything. but if you're looking for a sherlock's-like experience, you'd be best advised to stay clear. parking is on the street though they do have a lot one street over. if you come early, street parking is a good choice but be sure you're legal (read the signs, dummy!)or you may end up getting towed. no atm machine and they don't accept plastic, so bring cash.
- Pros: great dance floor, upstairs lounge, great for people-watching
- Cons: gritty, may look 'dangerous', only takes cash, cover tends to fluctuate at manager's will
