IntheKnowHouston Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 (edited) 903 Hutchins St is situated next to Herrin Lofts at 2205 McKinney St in EaDo. It's also across the street from PNC Stadium (formerly BBVA Compass Stadium). I don't know if this is part of Herrin Lofts or not. If it is, merge with the topic for the loft, please.

IntheKnowHouston Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 King's Court, the sports bar and grill at 903 Hutchins closed. The space was listed for lease in March and recently unlisted. https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/903-Hutchins-St-Houston-TX/22398541/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntheKnowHouston Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 A bar or a bar & grill named Tulum leased the former home of King's Court at 903 Hutchins. I don't know who's involved with Tulum or much else about the bar. https://www.instagram.com/tulumhtx 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I remember he’s doing some Latin/Pakistan fusion here. This could all be out of date info by now but that’s what he told me at the time.

I get where you're coming from. It does seem, at least in the Houston area, anything pertaining to Tulum is the latest trend. I've noticed a few local businesses (brick-and-mortar, pop-ups, and e-commerce) selling Tulum-inspired goods. And on the dining and nightlife front, you have places like Casa Nomad (M-K-T), White Rhino (EaDo), and others providing Tulum-inspired vibes through the decor, food, and drinks.

IntheKnowHouston Posted February 22 Author Share Posted February 22 PaperCity published a piece about Tulum / Tulum HTX yesterday. It's the first local media coverage I've noticed. Tulum is a bar & grill located at 903 Hutchins in EaDo. Some details about Tulum from the article: "This new Houston restaurant is inspired in part by the stunning Mexican town situated on the Caribbean coastline of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula named Tulum, the site of an ancient pre-Colombian Mayan walled city. Tulum HTX is a 5,000-square-foot multi-level EaDo restaurant decorated with expansive photo murals, Aztec tiles and rattan decor." https://www.papercitymag.com/restaurants/tulum-htx-new-houston-restaurant-opens-eado-mexican-food 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonMidtown Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 (edited) Nobody here for the grand opening party yet (5:00pm) Edited February 22 by HoustonMidtown 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonMidtown Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Went for dinner last night - food was good - drinks so-so. They had sports on all the TVs but had extremely loud rap music playing - they eventually turned the volume down which helped a lot. It is also a hookah bar so lots of smoke.... They said they haven't had their grand opening yet and are still working through the menu which only has limited items right now 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do hookah bars get around the city ordinance banning smoking in indoor public spaces? Is it something like the "private club" loophole that some Heights establishments used to serve alcohol when the Heights was still dry?

samagon Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 (edited) they only allow it outdoors, at least that's the law. Edited March 20 by samagon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
