jimcas Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Looks like the old Champps restaurant near 249 and 1960 is going to be a Fox & Hound. This place is pretty popular in College Station on University Drive. Its more of a bar with food than a great restaurant with a bar - but overall it could be a lot worse than Fox & Hound (like empty as it's been for the last year). Kind of reminds me a bit of Baker Street pub and grill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfootball Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Should be popular. They've got them in the Metroplex and Lubbock as well. PS - I wish they'd put a Logan's here (I love those movie clips) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Got 'em here in abq too. I go watch football games there and have a coke. I don't really recommend the food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJones Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 We have a Fox And Hound on Westheimer also, glad to see they are expanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vertigo58 Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Got 'em here in abq too. I go watch football games there and have a coke. I don't really recommend the food. So what the heck is it exactly? There is one on Fuqua and I always wondered what the fudge it is? Place to get smashed, meat market or what? Reminds of that old Seinfeld commercial...Release the hounds (in British speak) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardygirl Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Fox and Hound is a great place, very pub-ish. Great place for pool, or watching the game. and the food isnt too bad either. The Westheimer location always pulls in a good crowd. I think the Willowbrook location will be a success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Their tv's are plentiful and have good locations for watching a game. That's why I like it. It's got a decent atmosphere too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pookrat Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Saw the sign in the window this weekend too. I've been to the one on Westhimer right outside the beltway many times. Nice place to hang out. Draws a good crowd. I'd say alot like Baker Street but with more to do like Pool, Darts, Etc. More like an English Pub/Sports Bar. I think it will work out great although Baker Street will suffer.

pookrat Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Yup. They had their invite only "practice" sessions for bar and wait staff Monday and Tuesday. Was invited but didn't go. Friends that went said that the interior was completely redone and it was nice. Should be open within the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had their invite only "practice" sessions for bar and wait staff Monday and Tuesday.Hmmm...a bar with practice sessions. I like it!Now that it's almost drinking season again (football season), I'm woefully behind on my drinking skills. My liver is nowhere near gameday shape. I may look a little rusty for the first couple of weeks of tailgating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pookrat Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Well I spoke with my friend who gave me the invite and they said they are open for business now but wont have their "Grand Opening" for a bit. I might swing by after work to check it out. I liked Champps when it was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manager was happy to show off the plasma TVs. This will be a good game-watching location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
