Per the press release, Heights Social is the first “fully indoor bar” on the West 20th Street strip.

“We are very excited to be opening the doors to The Heights Social and bringing a new concept to West 20th Street,” Assistant General Manager Kim Cole said. “Our goal was to introduce a unique destination where social Houstonians could find their new favorite martini, craft cocktail or try a glass of high-end champagne. We were purposeful in our design to create a truly one-of-a-kind experience, and we are thrilled to be introducing The Heights Social to Houston.”

In addition to happy hour, the Heights Social will feature “champagne hours” on Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m.-3 p.m., which includes a roaming champagne cart where patrons can purchase bubbles by the bottle and glass. There will also be a late-night DJ on weekends.

Chef Kyle Dennis, formerly of Crisp in the Heights, has crafted a menu for Heights Social consisting of items such as thin-crust pizza and charcuterie served through the bar's full kitchen.


The Heights Social is open Mondays-Wednesdays from 3 p.m.-midnight, Thursdays from 3 p.m.-2 a.m., Fridays from 1 p.m.-2 a.m., Saturdays from 11-2 a.m. and Sundays from 11 a.m.-midnight.
