Handcrafted cocktails and small-batch bourbon pours define our tavern bar service.

At Brick House Tavern + Tap on Northwest Fwy in Houston, we press fresh juices daily, smoke whole spices in heavy glassware, and build drinks for guests who care about real spirit measures.

12910 Northwest Fwy, Houston, Texas 77040
Daily 11:00 to 00:00
100 % Scratch Syrups

Every cocktail poured across our bar rail uses house-boiled demerara, hand-squeezed citrus, and honest spirits poured without sour mixes or artificial powders.

Our beverage program brings serious bar craft into a high-energy American tavern setting. When you sit down to catch a game across our 30+ screens, you get spirits measured with balance: small-batch bourbons, botanical gins, barrel-aged rums, and agave tequilas paired with scratch garnishes.

Prices depend on the chosen spirit tier, single or double pour specifications, and custom smoke wood infusers. Current drink pricing is confirmed directly in the tavern menu, with typical cocktail checks contributing to our overall venue average check of $20–40 per guest.

2 Ounce Standard Pour

Every cocktail recipe starts with a full two-ounce spirit base rather than a short measure masked with sweet mixers or melting ice.

  • Fresh citrus pressed every morning: We do not store pasteurized lime or lemon mixes in plastic bottles. Lemons, limes, and grapefruits are pressed on shift for clean acidity.
  • Solid crystal ice cubes: Dense, clear ice melts slowly and prevents your old fashioned from watering down during the fourth quarter of a broadcast.
  • House-boiled demerara syrup: We boil raw demerara cane sugar each morning to produce rich bar syrup without commercial stabilizers or corn syrup.
  • Honest spirit measures: Our baseline pour is two ounces of base spirit. No short pours, no artificial powders, and no syrups used to hide cheap liquor.

Who is this bar service not for? If you want thirty varieties of pre-blended sugary daiquiris in plastic yard glasses, we are the wrong tavern. We focus on balanced cocktails, great American draft beers, and hearty tavern food built for relaxed dining.
