This is my favorite place to go for happy hour! Delicious bites, sushi by the piece, and a slew of martinis to choose from. I don't even eat fish and I love this place. Coconut shrimp, edamame, seaweed salad, egg rolls...I could go on and on.

God I love eating here. So many good options. Vegan and vegetarian friendly too. Pizza, salads, burgers....all amazing. This place can get pretty busy during peak season and landing a table can feel like a sport at times. Dont go here on a weekend night in the summer if you are hangry.

Always a good breeze if you decide to eat outside. I love the quesadillas and burgers along with a cold local beer. They also have crawfish, shrimp boils, and other southern classics.

Pet friendly and fun for adults and kids too. We like to play the games while snacking on some yummy bites and enjoying a whiskey or a cocktail. No beer but plenty of good stuff to drink.

This is a fun place to see tons of cool stuff salvaged from local homes/estates and available for purchase. It used to be a brothel back in the day. You can learn about the history of the building while you shop for antique treasures. So much to choose from.

Sightseeing

This is free and its best to walk on during the summer to avoid waiting in line for cars. You can feed the birds off the back of the ferry and watch for dolphins playing in the water. You will also see giant ships moving up the channel toward the port of Houston.
