Eight Row Flint

Whiskey, beer, and tacos—you really only need to excel at one component of this holy trinity to survive in Houston, but somehow this Agricole Hospitality number manages all three at both its OG Heights locale and newer, bigger space in the East End. Hit either to find its 100+ selections of whiskey, including proprietary barrels of bourbon hand-selected by beverage director Morgan Weber. Sip house Old Fashioneds and Green Chile Ranchwaters, play games of ring toss for prizes, and fuel up with superior eats from Berkshire carnitas tacos to Sonora dogs that pair perfectly with house margs. And if you’re over in EaDo, also check out sibling establishment and breezy cocktail emporium Miss Carousel, where the vibe is domestic-chic, the drinks are seriously tasty, and the patio space leaves picturesque nights wanting for nothing.
