⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Experience at Houston Watch Company Houston Watch Company is an absolute gem. Juan and Will are awesome—attentive, personable, and clearly know their drinks. From the moment you sit down, they make you feel welcome and taken care of, and their knowledge and recommendations really elevate the experience. Great atmosphere, great service, and even better drinks. Highly recommend stopping in and letting Juan and Will do their thing.
Went with some friends and loved the drinks, the price is reasonable for the drinks and the bar tenders are friendly and knowledgeable. It isn’t very crowded and perfect to catch up with friends.
Love this place. Don’t sleep on the Espresso Martinis here. On nitro tap and made with coffee liqueur made right here in Houston. Bonus points for them being only $6 during happy hour.
Best eggnog ever. Perfect bar tucked away in downtown for a nice intimate time. Josh T. Is our go to bartender. He’s so easy to talk to and extremely knowledgeable with all things cocktail and liquor. Come for a great time!
Great cocktail place - especially for Whiskey ones. Great alcohol selection. Had a vieux carre. Awesome bartenders and cool / old classy atmosphere. Definitely recommend to stop by if you’re near!
Drinks are amazing. Met a great bartender, Will and we had a great ending to our date night! Will told us they are famous for their old fashions and yes! It was great!!
Gosh what can I say about this place? It's amazing, quaint, and has such a cozy prohibition vibe. They CREATE art here in the form of cocktails. The mixtures are flawless and tasty. You can choose whiskey from a mini barrel that adds to the flavor and is a gift to the palate. The gin mixtures are top notch and really pretty. Get an empress aviation for a purple colored concoction.
The drinks are incredible, the bartending staff know what's going on, and they have all the different kinds of drinks you could need.
My favorite cocktail bar! 🍸Everyone is always so kind and the drinks are delicious 🩷
Decor, people, drinks, fellow patrons...all extremely cool! If you're a guy, get a woman to escort you into the ladies room so you can see the giant safe in there! I'll be back here again!
Best than ever.

What a gem! They have a lot of great whiskeys. The cocktails are expertly crafted by friendly, knowledgeable staff. I’ve never had a Gin and Tonic as good as what they serve. Best of all, it’s on draft for $6 for happy hour! I love the elegant, yet relaxed vibe and it’s in a great spot if you’re exploring downtown.
Best bar I visited today. I busted around 5 bars for Halloween and this one was my favorite. Great vibes
Amazing cocktail 🍸🍹 and heavy spirits bar. You get to try new things for a very modest price.
Houston watch company has a great selection of drinks and the atmosphere is amazing.
The best selection and prices for allocated bourbon. Definitely check it out if you’ve been wanting to try some hard to find whiskey, as well as some private selected barrels. Excellent service, all bartenders were polite and open to chatting if you had questions!
For cocktails, this is my go to spot. Andy is a great bartender that knows his "ish". If he doesn't know a drink, he will look it up and give it a try. For the longest I was looking for a spot that could make a Oaxacan old fashioned. I found the spot! They have a wide variety of spirits. Ambiance is dark yet pleasant. This place is definitely for the connoisseur of finer things. It's a small and intimate place.

I had the Old Fashioned, Nitro Cold Brew Martini and Gin & Tonic (the latter two are cocktails on draft). They were pretty good, though I noted that the Old Fashioned was served with ice cubes (as opposed to an ice block) and the Nitro Cold Brew had notes of Chinese herbs (which was interesting, but not exactly to my liking). During happy hour (4 - 7 pm), the Old Fashioned and cocktails on draft go at $6 each, which is a steal. Note that this doesn't apply to the barrel aged cocktails. The retro setting and wooden interior created a nice ambience.
We came here the other night after seeing the reviews. I love a good Old Fashioned and they had good reviews. I gave my review 4 stars because they didn't use a large ice cube nor a luxardo cherry. That's everything for me when it comes to an old fashioned. It takes away from the drink, without. But the bartender was awesome. The place is very vintage feeling, old downtown vibes, cool spot. I like it. Good vibes. Hope they get big ice cubes & luxardos 🤞🏽

On the evening of our visit, we had a party of 12, and no member of that group was asked to present identification when alcoholic beverages were served. Later in the evening, my daughter and my employee joined our party. When I returned to the bar to order four additional drinks, the bartenders then requested identification only from these two individuals. My daughter presented valid identification. My employee—43 years old—presented his identification in digital form on his phone. At that point, service became unprofessional and confrontational. I respectfully questioned the inconsistency in enforcement and asked whether the bartenders intended to verify identification for the remainder of our party if they were adhering strictly to TABC regulations. No such effort was made. Selective enforcement of identification policies raises serious concerns regarding inconsistent compliance and potential discriminatory treatment. If identification is required under TABC rules, it must be requested uniformly and without bias. The situation escalated further when one bartender responded to a reasonable service-related question by rolling his eyes and walking away, which is inappropriate and unprofessional conduct in any customer-facing role. I own and operate a restaurant within half a mile of this establishment, and I am well-versed in alcohol service regulations and hospitality standards. The handling of this situation fell well below acceptable industry practices and resulted in a special family celebration being unnecessarily disrupted. Based on this experience, I will not return to this establishment and cannot recommend it to others.

We tried to acquire a night cap here but encountered extremely rude staff. We love to support small bars but apparently we werent the trendy type they wanted. 10 out of 10 DO NOT RECOMEND
