Bring Baytown to Downtown!
by htowncoog at Citysearch
This place looks like it's out in the county somewhere. By that I mean the place is old and it stinks. literally, it smells like sewage. I also noticed that true to their ad on here, they allow smoking despite the sign outside and the city ordinance.
We just went in, had a drink, and walked out. The people are nice, but if I wanted to smell like smoke and see a bunch of aging people I'd go to a Baytown bar. Their TV's are from the late 80's also.
Sorry to sound harsh but that bar just doesn't work for that location.
- Pros: Reasonable prices...nice enough guys
- Cons: Smoking permitted??
This Market Square pub is a favorite among the University of Houston set.

In Short
With 35 draft beers on hand, the Tap offers beer snobs a wide variety of pricey brews to choose from. The space itself is dark, but the huge wood tables give the Tap a charming, Old-World feel. Adding to the relaxed atmosphere, dogs are as welcome as their owners--as long as they don't bite. Jukebox offerings include a variety of choices from Jane's Addiction to Aretha Franklin to Jimi Hendrix.
Great bar!

This bar is really great with a nice easy going atmosphere. The beer selection is great and it is a great place to kick back, have a good beer, and play some darts or Golden Tee!
- Pros: Great beer selection, good atmosphere
- Cons: Downtown location makes parking difficult.
BT regular

I have been a Brewery Tap regular for 14 years now, and I have yet to find a pub that is as welcoming as the Tap. No fights, an eclectic clientele, stimulating conversations, darts, and a cigar-friendly atmosphere combine to make the Tap an oasis in the "new" Houston downtown.
- Pros: atmosphere, regulars, diversity
- Cons: parking sucks!
You gotta go

This is a great bar to go to, have good beer with friends, and not have to deal with the pretentiousness of other bars.
