Harvard and Stone is all about the cocktails, forget the fact that Harvard and Stone is a dressed-up dive bar that hauls in a hip Los Felix audience for their burlesque shows, live music and low-key atmosphere. And remember the fact that Tales of the Cocktail rated it as one of the best high volume cocktail bars in the US. To highlight that, and to make sure their compadres come-a-knockin’ when they’re in town they have a very special RND space out back where the Top Gun of bartenders can come play and devise some sense-tingling drinks. Part of the Houston Hospitality Group, fronted by a pair of twins with a nose for a drink, who have a type (La Descarga, Dirty Laundry, Butchers & Barbers and Pour Vous), the carefully crafted and curated cocktails at Harvard and Stone are well worth the trip east of the 101.
