If you want dive bar vibes but high-end booze, EZ’s Liquor Lounge in the Heights can set you up. Even though the inside of EZ’s feels like someone went a little overboard on deep-cleaning, the sparkling sheen doesn’t make the booze taste any different. What’s great is you can choose your own adventure at EZ’s. Get bougie with an expensive bottle of champagne (don’t do that) or the champagne of beers (do that). Or just relax and play a game of pool, double-fist a couple chili dogs, and admire the beer paraphernalia artwork or the fact that the music switches from George Strait to DJ Screw and back again. Like most places in Houston, the dirt and grime will settle in eventually.
