Residents in the Willowbrook area have one more reason to not drive downtown for a night out. James Cole, manager of Revolver, a new gastropub off Hwy. 249, said he wants to bring Midtown to the suburbs.
Cole bills the venue's atmosphere as "sub-bourbon social"—a focus on high-end bourbons with the main market being the suburban residents of northwest Harris County.
"We felt there was a need for this type of establishment in the area," he said. "People don't want to drive 30 miles to hang out at a nice place."
Cole described the environment as relaxed and sophisticated, a mix of a few different concepts. It is a gastropub, but also has elements of a lounge, patio bar and a high-energy nightlife hangout on the weekends.
