Our first time. The service was great, drinks were strong, and the band was awesome! We will definitely be back!
This place for live music is a local legend. No cover, good prices and people sharing their talent. Don't forget to tip the band and bar tenders.
This place is awesome. Good neighbor hood bar. The best staff of all bars I've been to in a long time and close by. Great selection of special and trendy liquors and beers. I'm not into blues but the artiststhat performs are phenomenal. Older crowd mostly mixed in with the young at heart or young in
Great, unpretentious place that has excellent Houston blues every night. We really enjoyed Sparky Parker Band on a Monday night.
We sat at the bar, with few patrons inside. We were served a few drinks and then the barkeep disappeared, returning to provide the check, not requested. Guess it was time
Best 'dive bar with music every night' ever! Good beers, good people, good music, and always a good time. A favorite spot in Houston, for this Chicago Blues guy, that I will visit anytime I am down here. Last night, I got to see and hear a note for note set of classic Jeff Beck material that was rea
Great live music! It's a really cool place that has awesome people and a very nice bartender. On Sundays around 11pm you can join in to play on stage if you have an instrument. Really great atmosphere!
Great live blues. Awesome bar, owner is on site most nights. Pool tables in the back, darts. And a decent patio. Come early Friday and Saturday, it gets packed. Been coming here for over a decade. Keep up the good work!
7 days a week live blues. $5 cover charge..worth it. Drink cost very reasonable for Memorial area.$ 2.50 to $5.00 for premium. This more of local not fancy watering hole
Best Blues bar in town period.
Judging this book by it's cover will steer you wrong. It's a true pub: small, darkly lit, plenty of beers on tap, very casual attire, a couple of pool tables, and darts. This place is a gem though for its music. There is a live band playing almost every single night. It's blues and zydeco here, so t
A good dive bar. Have been there many times on Friday and Saturday nights and will go back. All ages attend and older aged couples are there almost always. Bar and table seating is available. Blues music (???) on weekends by a different band each night.
Bar tenders aren't attentive to customers
Dive bar with a good (but rather small) craft beer selection and friendly staff. Good prices. Live music nightly which can get rather loud but there is a small outdoor area you can retreat. Bar games include dart boards and pool tables. Very clean restrooms
This is my favorite place to hear blues in Houston. It's a little pub, tucked away in a small strip center. Casual atmosphere, drink specials and no cover weeknights until Friday. Tonight I saw The Tony Vega Band who has been appearing each Wednesday. Smokin blues guitarist and singer. Really tight
Bartender tonight, November 9, was great! She was sweet and attentive, just a doll! My husband and I have been looking for a go to spot when we have a sitter and this place was by a land side our best option
Like blues, like alcohol? Look no where else...... No frills, no gimmicks; this place serves it up right with no filler. The atmosphere at Shakespeare's is part of its charm. Friendly service and great regulars. Unpretentious, just come as you are. Highly recommend!
