H-Town Man Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 We are so damn lucky that so many restaurant renovations got done before Coronavirus. Not only this but renovations at former BoA center, Houston Center, planned GFR at new highrises, etc. Retail is entering a great depression and these things would not get financed now. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now is the time to support them. If these proprietors can survive and eventually thrive along with the drivethroughs, that will help shift the narrative. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntheKnowHouston Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Signage for McIntyre's was installed in late July or early August at it's forthcoming downtown Houston location. This is the site of the former Spaghetti Warehouse at 901 Commerce. The photo was posted to its downtown Houston Facebook page in early August. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainJilliams Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Happy to see this one is getting near completion. When I was walking around downtown a few weeks ago, I got to see the progress at the street level, and it's looking good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s craze. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texasota Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Well. All signs are pointing to this being a terrible, terrible bar. Which is a shame, but the building looks good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbates2 Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Gotcha - just not your speed. I think the other McIntyre's does pretty well so we will see how this one does. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adr Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 This bar may not end up being my scene, but have high hopes for it moving the center of gravity for entertainment in this part of town. Especially for pre-post Astros game, I think they will draw big crowds considering how much cheaper and plentiful the parking is over here. Already lots of folks park and take the easy walk from here. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This location should do very well. The original McIntyre's is a destination in that part of the Heights/Shady Acres and is packed every weekend. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 New McIntyre’s location brings three-level bar to downtown Houston A second location of McIntyre's, the Heights neighborhood bar, opened in downtown Houston on July 1. It's located in a three-level space at 901 Commerce. Expect the same drinks and vibe than the Heights bar in a much larger setting, with a patio overlooking Buffalo Bayou, 65 TV screens and two giant LED walls broadcasting the games, foosball, cornhole and shuffleboard. Since opening last Thursday, McIntyre's Downtown has already received high traffic. "It's been amazing," said owner Kyle Berg. "We've had a really good response." The bar has 24 beers on tap; two cocktails on tap including its most popular drink, a watermelon sangria called It's Always Sunny in Houston; and a full selection of wine and liquor, featuring high-end bourbon and tequila. There are two options for food. The Grub City food truck will be stationed at McIntyre's five days a week, serving burgers, chicken tenders, quesadillas and fries. A permanent food counter inside sells pizza, hot dogs, nachos and popcorn. Thursday night will be steak night. There will also be live music on Wednesdays, Fridays during happy hour and Sunday afternoons. The historic building, which was built in 1912, has a history of flooding, said Berg. They rebuilt the space with that in mind, by creating an open-air pavilion with a split-level floor via the basement and street level, as well as structurally reinforcing the building so it can withstand floodwaters. "In the event of a flood, we can kind of clean it up and reopen for business with minimal damage," said Berg. The upstairs looks more similar to the original McIntyre's, with a three-sided bar and bell-shaped patio. Berg said he's currently working on opening two McIntyre's locations in San Antonio, and hopes to bring more to Houston in the foreseeable future, when he finds the right spot. https://preview.houstonchronicle.com/dining/new-mcintyre-s-location-brings-three-level-bar-16296682 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumbleweed_Tx Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 I did some work for McIntyre's on St Paddy's Day weekend. I kinda like the place. The first and second levels are open to the brutal north winds, but they have heaters, so it balances out. The weather was great on the 17th. Anyway, I had some lighting fixtures with very narrow beams. One of them was able to hit the Main Street Bridge about 500' away. This should happen more often.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
