West University's Rice Village Walking Tour- Little Woodrow's

Shea Serrano
Head past the assortment of national chain shopping stores that make up the heart of Rice Village (Gap, M.A.C, Talbots, Banana Republic, American Eagle, Bath & Body Works and stores of that corporate nature), and turn south on Morningside and soon you’ll make your way to the steps of Little Woodrow’s, a great, neighborhood hangout type of place.

There’s nothing terribly interesting or original about Little Woodrow’s --it’s pretty much what every “We are so a neighborhood bar and laid back” looks like around these parts—but I think that’s what makes it enjoyable. The large outdoor patio and expanse of beers available don’t hurt its cause either.

Little Woodrow’s 5611 Morningside Dr Houston, TX 77005 713-521-2337

Other notables in the area: The Ginger Man, Brian O’Neils Restaurant and Irish Pub, Bronx Bar
