La Carafe

4.6

About this business

Housed in the oldest building in Houston, La Carafe caters to an eclectic mix of artistic and professional types. Musicians claim the jukebox has the best selection in all of Houston, and you will often see people dancing on the narrow floor beside it. This romantic spot is often the end to the perfect date. It is strictly a wine and beer bar, so you'll have to go elsewhere if you want other types of alcohol.

This place is a good time. Beer and wine , cash only. Sweet little throwback. The nostalgia is so awesome!

Great historical bar to visit. I use to go there when I attended the University of Houston back in 1975 and the bar really hasn't changed. Great wine and beer selection. — with Izumi Hara and 3 others.
