Houston, TXBest Bar
Poison Girl (PG if you're texting) gets a nod from us for its diverse clientele, entertaining decor and alcohol-heavy drinks. You're as likely to see a local musician enjoying a cheap drink on the patio with a one-legged Cabbage Patch Kid as you are a lawyer playing vintage pinball and drinking high-quality whiskey. (Did somebody say "Scavenger Hunt?") But the pours aren't the only thing generous about this place — we give the owners added props for stirring cool with consciousness. Every first Sunday, a portion of sales is donated to a local nonprofit organization, and every last Thursday, they lend the patio to local writers for the Poison Pen Reading Series. If Rudyard's is Montrose's living room, then Poison Girl is its equally-as-cool basement bar.

Houston, TXBest Local Reading Series
Good writers? Check. Alcohol? Oh, check! The folks behind the Poison Pen Reading Series took their cue from greats like Dylan Thomas and Hunter S. Thompson and set up literary shop in a bar. Normally, the idea of poetry and bars sounds like a surefire way to get stuck at an open-mike listening to some guy describe how his first time was like riding a unicorn out of a burning bush, but the Poison Pen organizers keep the mike regulated with their own selections — and you won't be disappointed. There's always a refreshing mix of upcoming and seasoned writers from Houston and beyond. And the ambiance allows for an experience that's as enjoyable for bookworms as it is for drunks (and even better for combinations of the two).

Posion Girl is an awesome bar somewhat tucked away between the Galleria and the Montrose District. Posion Girl is a great place to take a date or a place to get away from all the fake and trendy people of Houston. Here you will find an odd display of art and other various antiques and it also kinda has that Austin feel. This is without a doubt Houston's best bar. Anyone is welcome here and you will find a great mix of people.

Male / Houston, TXNot Poison!
This place is certainly not Poison... but on the contrary, it is a low key, mellow bar, and always a freindly staff on hand.. and they have Absinthe. For those daring types!
However the music tends to "vary"...

The "PG" is an eclectic watering hole on the Westheimer curve next to Taxi Taxi. One of the best features is the patio, which feels like someone's back yard at a party. Great atmosphere / music / people watching.
