    Happy Birthday Indeed

    Midtown eatery lures ladies to birthday brunch with free mimosas and more

    Nov 17, 2023 | 12:00 pm

    Got a Dirty 30, Twenty-Fun, or Twenty-Nine and Feeling Fine birthday party to plan? Look no further than Pour Behaviorin Midtown, where every Saturday they're turning up the nostalgia with a live DJ spinning your favorite new and old-school dance and hip-hop hits during Ladies Brunch Out.

    Indulge in a brunch experience like no other, where delectable bites, wonderful company, and an electrifying party atmosphere combine to make special celebrations — or even just an ordinary weekend — a time to remember.

    Picture this: custom party presentations, sparklers, and confetti cannons, plus a free mimosa tower for every ladies birthday party of six guests or more (or you can redeem a $100 birthday discount instead).

    And your cravings are covered with a scratch-made brunch menu served from 11 am-4 pm. From mouthwatering classics to Instagram-worthy creations, there's something for every appetite.

    Start things off with a jumbo cinnamon roll, baked fresh each morning and dripping with scratch-made icing. Keep feeding that sweet tooth with The Best Damn Pancakes, topped with plump blueberries and bourbon barrel-aged maple syrup and served with a side of crisp bacon.

    Build-your-own omelettes utilize cage-free eggs and premium ingredients like Grafton Cheddar, caramelized shallots, and cremini mushrooms, and they're all served with a heaping helping of potatoes. The PB Slam is a hearty traditional plate of two eggs cooked your way, bacon, sausage, potatoes, and sourdough toast.

    If you're seeking something on the healthier side, try the avocado toast with Spanish chorizo and queso fresco.

    Ready to really indulge? Then it's time for Nashville hot chicken biscuits or breakfast tacos, a pair of house-made tortillas bursting with eggs, potatoes, Cheddar, roasted tomato salsa, and avocado tomatillo salsa. It is the weekend, after all.

    And good news for vegans: Pour Behavior has two vegan pizzas on the menu, available all day, every day.

    If you want a little more privacy for your party, book the glass-enclosed private dining room. There are also two large, greenery-covered and open patio areas for your group to enjoy.

    Nashville hot chicken biscuits bring the flavor.

    The bar boasts 30 beer taps, craft cocktails, and a seriously good wine selection, while two huge 250-inch HD LED video walls line the restaurant.

    Pour Behavior is located in Midtown at 2211 Travis St., and its toll-free phone number is 833-O-BEHAVE. Reserve your next Saturday Ladies Brunch Out now.

    Country star Koe Wetzel opens new location of his lively bar in Houston

    One of Texas country’s rising stars has brought his lively bar to Houston. Koe Wetzel’s Riot Room opened last month in Midtown.

    Located at the former Electric Feelgood space (2416 Brazos Street), the Houston location of Riot Room builds on the success of the Fort Worth original that opened in 2023. Known for his outlaw country swagger, including his 2022 release, Hell Paso, that debuted at No. 12 on the Billboard 200, Koe Wetzel partnered with Fort Worth hospitality veteran Emil Bragdon to bring the Riot Room to life. It consistently ranks as one of Fort Worth’s highest-grossing bars.

    At over 8,000 square feet, the Houston Riot Room has considerably more space than the original. Wetzel and his team have used that to their advantage, expanding on the country music dance hall theme with details such as:

    • A seating area made from a full-sized pontoon boat
    • A DJ booth in the engine bay of a Ford pickup
    • Photo ops in a “jail cell” and a life-sized bucking bull
    • Neon signs that display Wetzel’s song lyrics.

    A full kitchen allows the bar to serve a menu of Southern-inspired bar fare such as chicken wings, Texas chili, potato skins, Southwestern egg rolls, burgers, salads, and more. Signature dishes include smoked beer can chicken and the Trailer Park Sandwich, featuring two breakfast sausage patties topped with cheddar cheese and served on a biscuit with strawberry jam. Houston will also be the first city to experience the bar’s take on weekend brunch.

    Bragdon told CultureMap that the bar’s name references someone who’s fun to be around, as in a laugh riot.

    "It's about who Koe is and what he represents," he says. "He has a carefree party attitude, that whole persona, which is so infectious. He's a true Texas guy, a good old country boy who's hospitable and likes to have fun - that’s what the place is about."
