Day 1: Arrival & a night out
After arriving at your hotel, unpack and unwind. Then get ready for dinner at Guard and Grace. This steakhouse is perfect for a date night or for group dinners. Amazing food and drinks will lead you into a fun night. Then head over to your favorite club to dance the night away.
Day 2: Shopping, mini golf & cocktails
Once you are up and ready, head over to The Post for lunch. The Post offers restaurants, shops, events and even a sky lawn to take in the views of the city. We then go to Puttshack for a fun, upscale, tech-involved indoor putt-putt golf park. Don't worry if you are still hungry and thirsty — they offer a full bar and food. To end the night, get dressed up and head over to Muse for dinner. This restaurant is a must-visit! From amazing food to club-like vibes to a private DJ, this restaurant is the definition of fine dining. If you want to continue the fun, walk right around the corner to the best cocktail bar ever created: Clarkwood. At dinner, someone told us about this place, so when we finished we walked over and we were amazed! The cocktails are AMAZING and the bartenders are so engaging. They decorate every drink over the top and it's so fun to end the night.
Day 3: Drinking, chilling & sushi
Wake up and grab breakfast, then head over to Cle, a day/night club. We saw Alesso perform! If you don't want to go clubbing but still want to drink and chill, head over to McIntryre's, where you can watch any sports game on TV. To end the night, head over to an amazing sushi restaurant called Soto.
Day 4: Brunch & baseball
Play ball! It's game time! Head to brunch at Osso & Kristalla, right across from Minute Maid. After brunch, now it's time for some baseball! Attend an Astros game at Minute Maid Stadium.
Day 5: Head home
Pack your bags and get ready to go home! But don't worry — this city will make you want to be back soon!
