Our first date! Alex got the americano and Kristin got the hibiscus tea! They have wonderful pastries and multiple locations throughout Houston
POST Houston is historic as it was the HTX Post office turned into a food hall and event center - check out the roof top for amazing views and gardens! Downtown Houston is home to several food halls, including POST, Finn, Bravery, Understory and the Underground Tunnels. Our food halls include multiple local Houston restaurants to accommodate different palates
One of 4 big parks in Houston - this is also located in the museum district and the medical center. Check out Centinniel Gardens or the Houston Zoo near by. You can also visit MFAH, Museum of Natural Science or check out a free show at Miller Outdoor Theatre. We reccommend going to Montrose before or after for amazing restaurants!
The Shops on 19th will give you that local Houston shopping experience - we LOVE Emerson Rose (clothing and home boutique), Man Ready, and Vinal Edge. Grab some tacos at Torchys then ice cream at Jeni's - all on the same block!
Want the high-end shopping experience? Head to The Galleria, the largest mall in Texas, for shopping, ice skating, and some delicious restaurants. TESLA is Alex's favorite, while Kristin likes to roam Nordstrom!
