Escape the Usual…….Make It A Night Out in Midtown
First…the Escape Room Experience!
The Escape Hunt Experience is a fantastic way to enjoy a night out in the Midtown area. They are the premier escape room in Houston and 5-star rated on Yelp, TripAdvisor, Google and Facebook. Enjoy an immersive experience that challenges you and a group of family and friends on a mental level to escape the room within 60 minutes.
Just opened this past summer is a very popular escape room based on NASA’s Apollo 13 space accident. You will be amazed with the detail and realism that they have captured in this escape room. They are not exaggerating when they promote this room as “The Most Realistic Escape Room in the U.S.”. Players who are chosen to be the astronauts are even given full size astronaut flight suits to wear during the experience.
You can choose other experiences such as “Theft of the Texas Lone Star” and “Murder in Marylebone”. Escaping requires mental fortitude, so be sure to save it for the period before you begin drinking! Worried about parking? Don’t! They offer complementary free parking in their covered parking structure.
Then….Enjoy These Nearby Great Food and Drinking Choices
125 W Gray Avenue
Oporto is right next to the Escape Hunt which makes for a very convenient itinerary to follow! This is a Portugese wine bar that specializes in small plates, so it’s perfect for sharing with friends. They feature creative dishes like scallop farrotto, curry chicken empanadas, and piquillo pepper rellenos. The cocktail menu doesn’t disappoint, either.
1517 Alabama Street
Axelrad is a beer garden that’s focused on leisure! You can choose board games, corn hole, and hammocks strewn about. It’s dog friendly, and local food trucks like Luigi’s stop by on the regular. What’s not to love? There are installations from local artists, and they feature a DJ on Sundays. There’s a ton of seating and space, so bring your friends.
3000 Caroline Street
If the diverse wine selection doesn’t excite you, the amazing S’mores bar surely will. The ambient atmosphere is perfect for relaxation. There’s also a decent beer menu for those who aren’t fans of wine. The staff here is completely knowledgeable, so feel free to inquire about their offerings if you’re having trouble deciding.
Transportation
If you’re planning on visiting multiple destinations in one night, figuring out logistics beforehand is always a good idea. This is especially true if you plan on drinking! When a group is involved, it certainly makes sense to reserve a party bus or limousine and Houston! You can focus on socializing instead of finding directions, a parking spot, or battling traffic with Houston Limos. Plus, when you split the cost among everybody involved, it turns out to be just as affordable as a ride share service, but with many more features.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
