Captain Foxheart's Bad News - Houston

Great place. I'd say it's a speakeasy because there's no signage, but we were told by another bar owner that the owner is just too lazy to get a sign. We opened a door that advertised law services and walked up the stairs. When we got to the top, we saw a door that wasn't labeled on the left and went in. What a cool vibe! We had delicious drinks made by a really sweet bartender(we didn't get her name), and took them to the balcony, where we were the only ones for awhile. What a great view of downtown! We highly enjoyed this bar!

Coolest bar in the downtown area. Finding it though takes some skill and investigative work. Bartenders are fantastic and extremely knowledgeable.

The fact that this place is not 5 stars is completely insane to me. We were wandering around the area, popping into places, and two different bartenders told us that the real place to get a great drink is Bad News. So we stopped in to check it out and ended up hanging out with Drew for a few hours. All of the drinks we had were Drew 's own creations, and they were creative, interesting, and so so good. Bad News isn 't pretentious or showy--all you 're going to get are drinks that taste incredible, without a lot of fanfare. If that 's what you 're looking for, you absolutely cannot miss this place. And make sure to try anything with D.J. next to it! Also, Mezcal Mondays! $6 an ounce, $8 select mezcal cocktails)

Absolutely fun speakeasy. I will be going back next time me out for an evening downtown. Warning they are considered a Negroni bar. I hate Negroni so luckily the have other options

Love the balcony! Drinks are very well crafted. It's somewhat of a speakeasy with no signage so the atmosphere is pretty cool. Bar service was top notch and the private barrel bourbon was very good!
