What we say

Houston's most popular gay bar
A young, trendy urban professional crowd fills this Houston standard both for happy hour and for "going out" in the evenings.

If you are in Houston you have to visit JR's. Simply because it's the place where most gays ( ages 21-35) go. They have drag shows, wich are the same week after week. On weekends you have some little queens with attitude...and no looks. Apparently ugly is the new hot in this town. But in general people are friendly and fun, especially early or during happy hour. The staff can be helpful, attentive and educated or the opposite. Good luck with that one!

***** If you have no choice...

This is "the place" simply because there is no other "place". I doubt this place could survive in any other city. It looks old and dark, the building is a mismatch of Texan/Arizona and...the old world?? Some bartenders are great, others (especially the old ones) tend to be rude with zero patience. Sundays are hell, it's like an open zoo. I'm not a big fan of crowds so my favourite day is fridays evenings around 5 or 6pm.

***** It ain't what it once was, but its as good once...

JR's is legendary, but it's not what it once was! George (bartender of old and current owner of George) made JR's legendary. George was what every gay bar needs...a bartender that realized that the profit is in how much you pour, not is measuring how much is poured. These day JR's is still a great bar, most nites. The happy hour crowd has dwindled, but Thursday and Sunday nites are not bad. Cheap drinks, nice bartenders, and a varied crowd...something for everyone. It is an S&M bar...stand and model!

***** It's all right.

Was here in Oct '09, and while it's not overly shiny or new, JR's holds to the standard of JR's everywhere. Good drinks, good service, and a diverse group of willing guys. Back patio area, strippers, pool table - this is a good place to hang, but not great.

***** Damn
Posted: September 08, 2009
This was truly sad! I felt like that snickers commercial - Need a moment? one hot foul mess after the next! drunk mexicans kept grabbing my dick most of the night (which I don't mind if your attrative,average or hwp) but none of the above applied. WAY TOO MANY of the arched eyebrows, made up trying to hard! and giving their best TJ MAXX/ROSS or Marshall Ed Hardy Finds This is such a cheap city I now get Y Dallas is the better destination in TX. If u are ever faced with the choice of going to Houston or Hell? You may want to choose the later at least it may be more interesting with hotter guys other than the dick dancers
