I'm sorry, but a beer garden should not provide parking. The literal purpose of the place is to sit and drink. 

 

Mandatory by the city. 14 spaces per 1000 sq ft. 

 

Please email your city councilperson and tell them to end this lunacy.

Long-awaited Savoy Ice House finally sets an opening date

Savoy Ice House, the Third Ward drinkery from the minds behind Turkey Leg Hut, has finally set a date for its soft opening.

A post on the bar’s Instagram page indicates that the business will open on Saturday, October 30, with a costume and cocktail party. The bar, at 4402 Emancipation Ave, Houston, has been in the works since at least 2019, when TLH owner Nakia Price teased in a Fox 26 news story about the Turkey Leg Hut’s battle with its Third Ward neighbors.

The Savoy is billed as the neighborhood’s “first urban ice house”, with decor that includes vintage motorcycles, street art-covered walls, and a large outdoor deck. The bar will also feature a VIP room with a private deck and private restrooms, as well as an outdoor bar in an Airstream trailer. Eater has reach out to the TLH team for more details, including whether one of the restaurant’s food trucks will be on hand to serve up stuffed turkey legs.

In February, the bar — which was unfinished at the time — was the site of an alleged assault in which TLH co-founder Lynn Price was accused of pistol-whipping and then threatening to kill an acquaintance. A hearing for that case is scheduled for October 21.

HOUSTON, Texas — March Madness is around the corner and bars across Houston are gearing up and getting ready for the mania.

One bar, in particular, is making sure everything is on point because it has special ties to one of the teams in the competition. 

On the corner of Emancipation and Wheeler sits a Third Ward bar that’s been around for more than 80 years. Today, its current owners, Black and Long Watson, have put new life into the location, reopening the staple as 'The Savoy.'
