The Black Labrador - Houston

Very juicy British pub atmosphere on the first level with a piano lounge on the second floor Excellent farewell with a must try the Shephard's Pie! This is a beautiful place to get a date, dune alone or simply to stop after work and relax with a favorite drink from an extensive beer list. Quiet enough for cozy conversation and loaded with British artifacts. Friendly staff and comfortable environment. An outer area with lounge and a playable giant sash. Great for friends to gather and hang!

A nice selection of beer with a few favorites like Fullers ESB on tap. A mixture of British pub food, breakfast / brunch offerings and regular leisure food offerings such as a fish sandwich, shepherd cake, etc. the outdoor seating area is very nice in the evenings and the whole day in spring.

The lab has been there for a long time and has not changed at all, so I am happy to meet my friends here once a month. Quiet and comfortable, a fire to chat in winter...and they have a decent selection of British beer that used to find b much harder, but not so much more. I think prices are a bit high for food and liberation, but u r pay for atmosphere and location to some extent. Parking in the garage is comp’d, which is beautiful. It can b beat or miss w the menu at times, but the shepherds pie, beef Wellington and the main rib were always good. Some delicious sandwiches and soups too. You have a high personnel turnover here, which influences the service from time to time. It is hard to find a classic pub that is easy to get a seat or table for small or larger groups, which is another plus for this joint.

It's a little jewel in Montrose District. Friendly staff and amazing atmosphere, very authentic decor! I loved the chicken soup and salmon sand I ordered it was amazing. Will definitely come back!

Always a consistent favorite. Bartenders are excellent and food is still good after all these years of being a customer. The place feels very warm and homely. Outdoor seating is a nice option too in decent weather. Very highly recommended. UPDATE Closing for good in mid-December
