“ Came to this hidden bar the other day and it was super fun. They have games for everyone to enjoy, their music is diverse and they have a full bar. The environment is chill. The place is a decent size and there is plenty of room to sit inside and outside. ”
“ Really amazing service from the bartender. I came here on a whim with my brother on a random Houston visit and the vibe here is phenomenal. Really nice selection of bourbons, tequilas and rums. I guarantee if you step foot here you'll find something you like. I'll definitely come back next time im in town. ”
“ Ace here. Took me a few stops to find it, but finally found the bar I needed post work. This place is the perfect hole in the wall that’s situated on the tracks perfectly between the bougie and gritty. Friendliest bar tenders, big buck hunter, regulars, nice patio, and touch tunes. You’ll talk to regulars about the rockets, spurs, nba history, and their favorite bands. The Lone Star is cold and flowing. Bartender might throw on her own track on, and it’s Bullet For My Valentine, screamo music, and it hits the absolute spot. This is the place! The Railyard just west of Royal Oaks. The beers are cheap, and the vibes are even better, God is real in Texas. -Ace ”
“ The owner of the Railyard is a great human being, and the Railyard is a great bar. Closest thing to the bar from Cheers in Houston. We really enjoyed the Georgie's Paper Crane. It's a well-balanced drink with excellent presentation. ”
“ Pretty standard bar with some games and a great patio area in eyesight of train tracks ”
“ The staff’s beauty is only rivaled by their excellent service and friendly personalities. Come for the games and jukebox, stay for the delightfully pleasant patio. The whiskey selection is without competition in Harris county, and even for non drinkers like myself, the ambiance, music, and conversation with laid back well-meaning locals always makes it a fun time sipping a Topo, ginger beer, or red bull on the good ole “tracks”, adjacent of course to the beautiful sprawling world famous River Oaks neighborhood. ”
“ Great bourbon selection and decent prices! A must stop if in the area. ”
“ My car broke down in front of the Railyard. I walked in hoping to be able to buy a diet Coke and some waters for my kids. I ended up having a great conversation with a bartender about the local children's museum and he sent me away with our drinks a smile and no charge. Very thankful for the hospitality. ”
