This is a super interesting and quirky bar near East River 9. The decor inside is funky old furniture. Its got a small couch, bar seating, and a high top area. There is outdoor patio seating and a covered bar. When the weather is cooler, it will be amazing. Its such a cool place in a cool area.

The drag show at New Potato was SO much fun. The drinks were great and affordable and the staff went above and beyond to suggest drinks wed like. They were wonderful. Yes, the patio is incredible. It was easy to find, there were dogs, kids, great music, and drag queens! The New Potato has it all!

All of there staff is amazing, especially Justin. At The New Potato I do not feel like I am at a bar, I feel as if Im HOME.

It was my first time there last night. I will definitely come back. The night weather was perfect with all their lights around the place. You can see the downtown skyline. Just gorgeous . The only thing I didnt like was their beer selection. Well, really, its because they didnt have Michelob. Not enough to take a star away, though

The New Potato is a gem in East Houston. I ve met some of the most friendliest people around this establishment. The owner Paul is a great person and he has an amazing staff that can shake and stir amazing cocktails for ya. They throw some of the most fun events and have good food trucks and food vendors there when possible. They also hold karaoke and trivia on certain nights as well as invite live music and DJs. I recommend stopping by at least a few times to check it out if ever in the area. Large backyard for dogs and friends to run around. It is a neighborhood bar for some so you will end up meeting some regulars, all who welcome you like you live in the area. Go on down and get you their famous old fashion and enjoy the day!

One of the best bars in the whole town. The old fashioned is the best youll find in Houston and they make a whiskey sour the proper way, not with some sweet and sour out of a gun. Frequently have fun and delicious different food vendors and always have something unique on the books for the weekend. It does not have the d-bag vibe of many of the highest rated bars you find in searching the internet. Has all the charm of a neighborhood bar and a view you cant beat. All the 1 and 2 star reviews have the sound of your typical Karen.

I wasnt impressed by the place. It needs more life to it in all aspects. The interior of the actual bar was very unique but accompanied by a lifeless bartender. He was slow, not friendly and once again lifeless. He didnt seem to want to be there which killed the vibe of the place. They have a large outside patio with a lot of space which is not well used. There is a large tent over most of the green space but its not utilized well. Maybe get some more outside games? I feel like this place has a lot of potential but more thought needs to be put into it. The white tent needs a good pressure wash as well.

This is a very unassuming pub but I really liked it. The owner is very friendly and quick to serve. There interior is only open to order and use the restroom, you cant stay inside. There outdoor seating is very large with lots of seats and shade. I found bug spray on one of the tables but you might prefer to bring your own, not that it was very buggy. Theres also a very friendly cat that comes to greet you when you go out onto the grass. Theres also some really nice views of Houston. I enjoyed this pub and would come again.
