Town In City Brewing Company
Located in The Greater Heights, Town In City Brewing Company is the newest brewery in Houston. Houston’s first official suburb, The Heights, is known as the “small town in the big city,” hence the brewery’s namesake. Enjoy a completely private, cleared out space in the back (brewery) and beer garden. For a semi-private event, Town In The City operates like a restaurant, where you can call in advance to rent out the space or tables. For an intimate occasion, this brewery holds 60 to 100 people — with the outdoor capacity accommodating up to 150 people.
Southern Star Brewing Company
Choose from an open taproom table reservation during the regular Friday, Saturday and Sunday hours. A variety of beer services are offered at this locale including a cash bar, a keg, or a package per person. On the weekends, Russo’s NY Pizzeria provides concessions in the taproom as well as pre-ordered catering, with outside catering or food vendors allowed at no additional cost. A private taproom rental includes use of the taproom outside of the brewery hours as well as tables and stools and of course several bartenders to serve beer during your event.
