This place is fun for all ages! Kids 3 & younger get free admission. You get a discount if you purchase tickets online. Parking is $10. The space center is in Webster so plan to be gone most of the day. It's a bit of a trek but we think it's worth it.
Super fun with or without kids! Multiple rooms with different activities and installments.
So much fun! There's a full bar and restaurant as well. We did a day date here and had a blast.
We have been to the zoo once during Christmas for the lights and it was great! The weather should be nice for a stroll.
We had a blast at this interactive play. The actors have to pull straws to see how has to drink and they get smashed! It makes for a very interesting display of a Shakespeare play. Adults 21 and older only. We recommend taking an Uber.
They have so many games! We recommend getting there earlier in the day because it can get very busy mid-afternoon. After 9pm it's 18+ only.
Check out the schedule beforehand to get tickets. Great intimate venue with plenty of well-known comedians doing shows.
Really good kolache's and you can get donuts too. This is a franchise as well and have many locations around the city.
Great little coffee shop! Do not go to Starbucks while you are here. There are a hundred different coffee shops to try in Houston. There are a few locations, including one on Shepherd.
This a great grab and go coffee shop. They have great pastries as well. A couple of locations around town, but there is one right by our house in Pearland. No fuss kind of place.
Great for breakfast and lunch! The servings are massive so come with an appetite or someone to split a meal. Multiple locations around the city.
We love this place! Best for breast fast or lunch. They make their own pastries (try the chocolate croissant or the pistachio croissant) and they never disappoint! Ashley's favorite sandwich is the tomato & Burrata.
If you're looking for a more relaxed environment we recommend this Mexican restaurant. There are a lot of locations around the city if this one is not near where you are staying.
When Ashley's family is in town this is the place they have to go to on the first night. If it were up to Katie we would eat here everyday. Very good choice for casual dining. We always go to the location in Sugarland but there are multiple throughout Houston.
This place is fantastic! Perfect for breakfast or lunch. The salmon poke bowl is a must. There are a lot of locations around Houston including West University (West U) and Bellaire Blvd.
Great place tucked away in River Oaks. Highly recommend the deviled eggs! Casual dining for lunch or dinner. Sits in a community park where you can let the kids run and play and even bring your pets.
One of our favorite casual lunch places!
You will pass this place up if you aren't paying attention! Great ambience and food.
Great place for lunch! The location is in Rice Village where there are lots of little restaurants and plenty of shopping opportunities.
Sunday brunch buffet here is AMAZING! Highly recommend even if it's just for lunch or dinner. Let us know if you plan to go, we may come meet up :)
Beautiful setting and excellent drinks! We almost had our ceremony here.
The name says it all! They even bring popcorn out instead of bread. So good and the drinks are stellar.
Excellent Sushi & Grill! Highly recommend this quiet little place, but get a reservation. Unlikely to get a table without one. Highly recommend the cold soba noodles and Texas Kobe beef skewers. Yumm.
If you want to go all out and have a fancy date night, this is the place to do it. By far the best steakhouse around. Dig deep in those pockets for this, but it is well worth it, in our opinion.
