ssullivan Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 I haven't been to Barnaby's in ages. Those burritos are good, but I usually go for one of the chicken dishes, the lasagna, or the meatloaf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 It's now ten years later, and the rumor is true. Construction is underway. It will be in 'the heart of Montrose'. Proposed opening is this spring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drecey Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 (edited) I was out in the gayborhood today with friends and we noticed the old Hollywood super center adult store under construction. The adult store moved next door into a smaller space. We went in to ask the worker what they were turning the old adult store into and he said a Hamburher Mary's. As we kept bar hopping we noticed the flyers everywhere. We even came across a Facebook page. https://m.facebook.com/Hamburger-Marys-Houston-1312081512169702/ Hamburger Mary's is a burger joint that caters to the LGBT community with various Drag shows and other forms of entertainment. I believe they started in West Hollywood, CA. Scheduled opening is February 2017 oh and this was the supposedly new (relocated) Hollywood Vietnamese restaurant.

drecey Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Bayou City is still up and running. With no signs of closing (went by there last night). The old hollywood adult store is going through a renovation. They have all the equipment outside and in the building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkultra25 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 It's certainly possible that they're still working out the usual new-restaurant issues, but Houstonia's review was pretty underwhelming: https://www.houstoniamag.com/articles/2017/3/13/no-tea-no-shade-at-hamburger-mary-s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntheKnowHouston Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 A bar from Guava Lamp is in planning for 2409 Grant St. Currently, Hamburger Mary's resides here, so I don't know if this bar will be its replacement or will be an added venue. Here's what I know of Buddy's so far: Their logo was added to their Instagram page around a month or two ago. Their Instagram is @buddyshouston And their website is http://buddys.bar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a former employee that worked at Guava Lamp some time ago that is opening the bar. Buddy's will actually be located on the west side of the building, where Mary's Alibi and Bayou City were previously located. Buddy's is said to be a country/western bar and are currently awaiting permits/licences with the city to open. Back to Hamburger Mary's - I did hear their lease is set to expire and may be relocating. Edited May 24, 2019 by ErickEdgar 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow news of the murder at Bayou City, its closure and reopening as the short-lived Mary's Alibi seems to have been overlooked at HAIF. A well-run bar with a courteous staff, adequate security, and reasonably priced drinks should do well here (and would be a refreshing change). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
