La Carafe 813 Congress Street, Houston, TX 77002

"It’s old and charming. It’s a historical landmark. Lovely spot to sit and have a drink. We enjoyed the quiet cozy atmosphere. Nice staff."

"Great atmosphere very retro so if you are into that, this will be a luxury for you. I got 2 ciders (since I'm not a fan of bear) they were DELICOUS. I will post a picture of the exact ones I got. They ran me about 5 bucks each which made it very affordable for leisure drinking. Would recommend this spot for sure if you are chilling and want to catch a vibe. P.s. I didn't attempt to order food so don't know how that is or if they are serving it still"

"This building has been around since the mid-1800s, and I'm a sucker for any spot with history! This spot is beer and wine ONLY and offers munchies such as chips or crisps, depending on the noun of your preference. It's a cool spot to go and chill while enjoying a cold beer or a glass of wine. Yes, some of the wines and beers offered are local. There are two levels to this location, and both offer a very cool atmosphere as there are various oddities surrounding the interior. There is patio seating on both levels, which offers nice calming views. This spot is rumored to be haunted, but I can neither confirm or deny the rumors. Stop in, take a load off, and relax. Perhaps you may have a paranormal time? Or, if anything, enjoy a good time with good people and a cool atmosphere!"

"It is very small but decent. The bartender doesn't know how to use a card machine, but he is a nice and welcoming person. Not much beer options though. Hey it is worth stopping by for a drink"
