    Astros playoff specials

    Cheer on your Houston Astros with these grand slam food and drink specials

    Let’s just take a moment to appreciate the Houston Astros success so far this postseason. A team that began the playoffs as a 22:1 underdog now stands four wins away from making back-to-back World Series appearances.

     

    It has achieved this success without the starter that won last's year Cy Young Award, the closer who saved 38 games in 2019, or the reigning American League Rookie of the Year. After limping into the playoffs with a below .500 winning percentage, the Astros have been breathing orange fire — using timely hitting (welcome back, Jose Altuve) and young pitching to triumph over the Minnesota Twins and Oakland Athletics.

     

    Even though fans can’t attend the games in person, now’s the time to root, root, root for the home team. Houston’s bars and restaurants have a number of specials designed to lift people’s spirits.

     

     The Bagel Shop Bakery
    The Meyerland institution is serving blue and orange Astros-themed bagels throughout the playoff run.

     

     Biggio's
    The Vegas-style sports bar in the Marriott Marquis hotel offers $10 Jim Beam highballs during Astros games plus happy hour from 3-6 pm daily.

     

     Brasserie du Parc
    The French restaurant near Discovery Green has two options for Astros fans. Get either an 8-ounce cheeseburger or a crepe-wrapped lamb sausage with fries and a beer (or glass of wine) for just $10.

     

     Bobcat Teddy's 
    The Heights ice house will feature $15 domestic beer buckets and $20 craft beer buckets for all of the ALCS games.

     

     The Burger Joint 
    Diners receive a free milkshake for every Astros home run. The coupon may be redeemed immediately or used on a future visit.

     

     Cactus Cove 
    The Creek Group’s Timbergrove bar offers $18 buckets, $3 pints, and their signature Hempstead Nachos during Astros games. In addition, they’ll be holding raffle drawings throughout the game; prizes include Astros swag, Creek Group gift cards, and free appetizers

     

     East End Backyard 
    Brian Ching's new patio bar in the East End is taking $1 off Crawford Bock, Bud Light, Bud Light Seltzers, and Michelob Ultra during all Astros games. Just opened last week, East End Backyard has installed a giant 10-foot by 16-foot outdoor LED wall for watching the games.

     

     Eighteen36 
    Head to this bar and restaurant in Upper Kirby for specials that include $10 bottled beer and hot dog meal combination, $12 draft beer + hot dog meal combination ($1 more for Beyond Dog), and $15 beer flights (three craft beer pints of choice, ordered one at a time).

     

     The Flying Saucer 
    Downtown’s craft beer destination will feature $4 drafts on Monday, October 12, as well as $6 Makers Mark Old Fashioneds during all Astros games. In addition, the establishment is holding a raffle to win pinatas of two legendary Astros antagonists: Mike Fiers, the former Astros pitchers who revealed the team’s sign stealing procedures, and Jomboy, the passionate Yankees fan who has tweeted extensively about the Astros sign stealing. A portion of proceeds from the raffle will benefit local non-profit Kids Meals Houston.

    Two week dining event celebrates Houston's Latin-owned restaurants

    A two-week celebration of Latin food and culture has begun in Houston. Latin Restaurant Weeks has returned for its seventh year.

    Held from Friday, July 11 until July 25, Latin Restaurant Weeks has more than 40 participants that showcase the diversity of Latin American cuisine. It includes everything from all four of James Beard Award winner Hugo Ortega’s restaurants — Mexican staple Hugo’s, seafood restaurant Caracol, Oaxacan restaurant Xochi, and street food favorite Urbe — as well as Brazilian steakhouses, casual taquerias, and bakeries.

    Unlike Houston Restaurant Weeks where restaurant serve prix fixe menus at set prices, each participating restaurant in Late Restaurant Weeks determines its own offer. For example, at The Lymbar, David Cordua’s Latin-Mediterranean fusion restaurant in Midtown, diners have the option of a two-course, $25 lunch or a three-course, $39 dinner. Next door at Late August, chef Chris Williams and Sergio Hidalgo’s Michelin-recommended restaurant, the options consist of a two-course lunch and a three-course dinner (pricing information wasn’t available at press time). In contrast, Urbe’s sole offering is a three crispy pork belly taco plate for $17.

    Those looking for more of a bar experience should consider Botónica, the recently-opened, Latin-inspired cocktail bar near River Oaks District. Aye Candy, a speakeasy-style bar in Spring Branch, is serving a $35 margarita flight with four variations on the popular cocktail.

    Married couple Karinn Chavarria-Luckett and Warren Luckett founded Latin Restaurant Weeks in 2019 to increase awareness of Latin-owned restaurants. Since then, the event has expanded from Houston to Atlanta, Miami, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York City, and Washington, D.C.

    “Latin Restaurant Weeks was created to spotlight the cultural richness woven into each dish and story,” said Karinn Chavarria-Luckett, co-founder of Latin Restaurant Weeks. “It’s a celebration of identity, of creativity, and of the people behind the flavors who make our communities vibrant and strong.”
