Friendly bar with a lot going on
It's not in Montrose, but this bar is worth venturing out for. This fun bar caters to a diverse group, with weekly Bear Beer Bust, Gayme night, and amateur strip contests. The bartenders are friendly and the crowd is always having a good time.

      Wow, Underwhelmed
      New to town…Did a little research. This bar seemed to advertise Bear events and a fun atmosphere. I showed up expecting to see some bear folk….None were there….neither was the friendly atmosphere. Bartenders were inattentive….crowd was unfriendly…and the show was fairly lame. This is Pride weekend 2014….super underwhelmed I guess expected some interaction from staff.I really felt like this bar put on a bait and switch. Bear bar was in the headline and twink/drag central was the reality. Maybe this bar needs to focus on the truth of it's patrons and clean up it's service act, regardless if you fit their mold. Very disappointing experience…wish Map quest made it even harder to find this place…I might have wasted less time. I thought I might want to join Bears of Houston….not if this is the sponsor bar.

      Fun Bar
      Great bar and atmosphere. Tony, the owner is often there and is super friendly. The bartenders always have a smile on their face. The dancers are also very cute and offer an amateur strip contest is like no other in Houston. This is my favorite bar in Houston.

      yucky place
      I took two straight female friends there because I like the view from the back patio, but I was so embarrassed. A guy who was drunk out of his mind started rubbing on me and the people were scary looking. I can't imagine going back.

      TOURISTS: Go here! One of the BEST clubs ....
      1. Bartenders. EXCELLENT. The best in Houston; they match the professionals at the BRB or at the Montrose Mining Company! The bartenders at Tony's are always on point and recognize your drink the second time you purchase. GREAT customer service. 2. Dancers. INCREDIBLE. You will not find cuter, gay, str8 and bi dancers in Houston. And lets be honest here, JR's, SOBE and the Mine do NOT have gay or bi dancers --- their dancers are all straight. The dancers at Tony's are both in and out of shape guys ... and I LIKE THIS. Not all gay men have six packs, its good to see guys with a higher BMI stripping. Tourists, you will love the dancers here - they are fantastic. 3. The outdoor patio. Wonderful. 4. The bathroom. VERY clean with a nice big sign that says: NO DRUGS. And they mean it. 5. The owner? Never met the owner of JR's or SOBE you say? Amazing. The owner of Tony's is Tony's and I met him the FIRST time I came here. He is an incredibly nice man, with a HUGE smile on his face when he shakes your hand. Not only did Tony know me the SECOND time I came to TCP, but he came back to our table, introduced himself and asked up if everything was ok. I've never, ever seen a barclub owner do such a thing, come up, say hello, grab your shoulder and honestly want to know if your having a good time. Tony shows how CUSTOMER SERVICE is conducted in a gay bar environment. What? You say you never saw the owner of JR's or SOBE before? You won't. TOURISTS: if you are coming to Houston for the first time, visit Tony's Corner Pocket. It's not as pretty as Meteor or JR's or South Beach, and you wont have the high-minded, prissy, pendantic, brandwhore, rich, gay, white guys saching about with their martini's ... but real Texans (who are gay) dressed in blue jeans, boots and cowboy hats, ballcaps and tight t-shirts, the way God intended. TCP's is the best in Houston for customer service. Dont miss the drag show or strip contest!
