Local Houston MagazineFebruary 23, 2014Moon Tower is now the only bona fide brewpub Houston --yep, they brew beer on site. There is a covered seating area but the party is out under the sun/stars. The new tap wall has up to 66 draft beers. Read more
Debbie PhamAugust 12, 2013Try the stuffed jalapenos for suree! I ate the buffalo dog with onions, cheese, and dr.pepper marinated onion marmalade. Its extra for the marmalade but it would have been super dry without it.
EaterJuly 10, 2013As if the wild game sausages and creative condiments weren't enough, there's 66 taps of craft beer, weekly specials (2 for 1 burgers on Wednesday) and a highly entertaining FB page. [Eater 38 Member]
The Wall Street JournalAugust 3, 2014They have 66 beers on tap (a few of which are made on-site), a selection of wild game sausages and hamburgers, and a terrifically irreverent, often profane notion of what constitutes customer service. Read more
Angie OsmanskiMay 29, 2017Great place to chill and be laid back. Lots of outdoor space to grab a beer. They only downside is that they only serve beer. No wine or liquor
- EaterOctober 5, 2011They've got attitude, but they've also got great hot dogs made from all types of game meats as well as fun toppings. Great beer list too. All outdoors. [Eater 38 Member]
If you like to be edgy, When ordering a dog, ask for 'chef's choice'. If u wanna play it safe, when asking for 'chefs choice', just mention what you DON'T want. You won't go wrong. ENJOY!
Houston PressAugust 4, 2014Moon Tower Inn isn't a restaurant as much as it is a beacon in the night: Come here and we will comfort you with sausages and beer. Read more
- Craig ThompsonFebruary 6, 2015The pork tenderloin sandwich on the pretzel bread is the best sandwich I've ever put in my face. Beer selection is the best around. I dig this place.
- Local Houston MagazineAugust 3, 2014Relax, you might have to share a picnic table with other partiers, you might not be able to see your food if it’s dark outside, but this is all part of the charm. Read more
Chad CampbellOctober 12, 2015This is a great place to grab a craft beer or a growler to go. The food is also amazing! The Cheech or the Chong are awesome burgers!- Houston PressFebruary 11, 2015If you haven't trekked out to the East End wild game hot dog and craft beer bar yet, you haven't truly lived. Read more
William WalkerFebruary 25, 2023I loved the place very nice atmosphere and staff will give you lots of respect. 5 star environment and food is very good.
Andres ElizondoJanuary 12, 2017Gourmet burgers, a wide selection of beers on tap and good friends make this a good spot after a long week
Chuck DotsonOctober 14, 2014The beer here is amazeballs but the food is so good that is worth coming by even if you don't plan on having any beer!
Doris WilhoiteSeptember 14, 2014Jalapeño buffalo hot dog is great. Many beers on tap to choose from. Beers change daily! They also allow growler fills.
L bOctober 4, 2015Sausage dogs and burgers are unbelievably, impressively good. Line is usually long and slow but worth the wait
Best place for craft brews without pretentious attitudes. Seriously nice folks run this joint. Say hi for me and order a Cheech burger!- Craig ThompsonFebruary 6, 2015The pork tenderloin sandwich on pretzel bread is the best. Just had the Cuban rueban at it was delicious.
- Local Houston MagazineAugust 3, 2014What’s that? Never experienced the Moon Tower Inn? Well, hop in your t-bird and head over to Canal Street because it’d be a lot cooler if you did. Read more
*iVy DelizMay 14, 2015Everything is truly bigger in Texas, including beer gardens. Their yard is HUGE! Awesome spot.
They don't care much about friendly service, but they do care about good food and good beer.- 66 craft brews on tap and the best dogs and hamburgers in HTX. What more could you want? This place is Heaven.
Karen FryarJuly 13, 2014The duck hot dog is amazing! Can't wait to go back and try some of the other fare.- Houston PressMay 31, 20122011 Best of Houston Winner: Best Restaurant Atmosphere.

Rafael GuzmanSeptember 26, 2013Food here is great. Try the Chong burger or any of the hot dogs. Great local beer selection too.- Liza AbadAugust 22, 2018For pet lovers, be fore warned. Even though it’s a largely outdoor spots, no dogs allowed!!!
- Don't forget to try the sambal mayo. It makes everything better! Check in on yelp if you want a hug from Peter.
Jennifer HopkinsJuly 20, 2014If you're going to eat the dogs here, you MUST get the chef's select toppings.
Tony NguyenOctober 4, 2011Chicken sausage is extremely dry. Venison and Buffalo is where it is at! I almost love the lamb with goat cheese!
Jenn BacallSeptember 2, 2014The bartenders are patient when asking for samples and are forthcoming with suggestions.
Andrea LoqueMarch 16, 2013Great place. Try number 62, hard cider. :) and Horse is just the nicest bartender, ever.
- It's all good. Chong burger in particular. Be prepared to wait.
Lindsey GeorgeNovember 2, 2010This is Houston Hipster Central! Fresh Cilantro on a hotdog... has changed my life!
Natalie DiazOctober 3, 2016This place is okay but in all honesty, there isnt something special to keep me coming back. Also, I had high expectations on the food and It was somewhat of a let down.
free wifi, ipa heaven, good blues music, mayo and cilantro for the yummy hotdogs!- Houston PressJune 5, 20122011 Houston Web Awards Winner: Best Use of Facebook by a Restaurant. Check out the 2012 Houston Web Awards on June 28. www.HoustonWebAwards.com
Jon E GrooveFebruary 22, 2015It's either here or James coney... You'd be dumb to ton choose the latter.
