“ Loved it all. Bartenders were very attentive. Cocktails were amazing. Ambience was great. It's a perfect date spot. There were a lot of couples there. Comfy seating for groups of maybe 4 or 5 but a lot of couple seating. Loved everything about it. ”
“ AyeCandy is a cute and quaint cocktail bar located in the Spring Branch area of Houston. Because I decided to visit on a weeknight, parking was plentiful, but I would imagine on a weekend this being a potential issue. When I made it into the Speakeasy itself, I was struck by how beautiful it was inside. The music was not too loud, the focal point in the space (the bar) was well lit and designed and I loved the overall ambiance. Bartenders made the drinks really well and I was able to try a few drinks including: The Gold Escalade- While Mezcal does not work well in most drinks, pairing it with the pineapple and egg white balanced out that strong smoky flavor. The presentation was beautiful and I'd definitely get this again. Cocosol- The hibiscus salt rim gives this drink a really interesting look. I am a sucker for anything coconut flavored and this drink did not disappoint. Aesthetically beautiful, especially with the flower garnish. A touch on the sweeter side, but overall another solid creation. Overall I had a great experience and would absolutely visit again. ”
“ If you're a single man, why are you not here? My church group came here - bare with me now - and we went for good ol' fun. Plus I introduced them to another speakeasy in town, so they wanted to impress me. Y'all, single ladies, I feel for you. There were so many pretty single girls and no dudes. The only guys there were with us or guys in my group who were not actively looking for a single lady. And they were so young and pretty! Or maybe this is just a place for girls, I don't know. While I think they could bother making a better candy store before the speakeasy and the parking is atrocious, the ambiance was so delightful I forgave it. We went and had a great time. My friend ordered this candy charcuterie board, which was super cute and tasty. I ordered a drink, and although I usually don't, the girly-frilly drinks won me over. No one was a sloppy drunk; everyone was just having a good time, and it seemed like every other group there was genuinely happy, and that's rare to see in bars/restaurants nowadays, an entirely happy place. With the happy-go-lucky vibe, the cute people, and the fun drinks, you should come here. It's too pretty and girly for you not to check it out, which is probably why guys don't come here, but they should! ”
“ Loved this speakeasy! Great ambiance and vibe. It can be easily overlooked when looking for the lot. When we arrived using the GPS it took us to the lot next door. They offer free valet parking which was great because the lot next door was definitely sketchy. We were able to book a reservation the same day. We went it and was seated at the bar until out table was ready. Service was great. I was waiting to get my order taken and the manager saw me and served us. We were seated shortly after and got our first round of drinks. Presentation was great. All the drinks looked beautiful. My favorite was definitely the gin and tonic and the lychee shots! Our group of 4 was able to catch up although music got loud from time to time. I can't say how impressed I was with the service. They were so attentive and condtantly checked in on you. Definitely recommend and would be back. ”
“ We didn't know that we needed reservations but now we do. Cute candy shop that leads into a very small bar. The people are nice but the bar staff could be better. We orders drinks with a waitress and it took almost 20mins to get our drinks mind you a couple who arrived after us got drinks before we did and they did not have e reservations. My espresso martini was good but not in my top 5. All in all I will go back but with reservations to see the difference. ”
“ This is an amazingly well designed look and feel. I love this speak easy vibe. It's kind of easy to miss from the street so make sure you look for the blue and white stripes. It looks like a little house in the front of a tiny shopping center. But it doesn't disappoint. Parking is valet only btw but I can't remember the amount (might be tips?). You walk into the candy shop and then you're taken in to the actual bar. I will say that it looks pretty upscale, but the patrons were pretty relaxed in dress. The music was chilled R&B and pop, which I enjoyed. Very laid back overall, but I'd personally dress cute. It's Instagram worthy. The craft cocktails are so pretty and really tasty. I liked everything I had but I don't think they're strong for the price. We ordered a charcuterie board and that was the only thing I didn't care for from a quality perspective. There are better meat and cheese options. Their focus is cocktails, not food so there were really only a couple of options, and the charcuterie board was the most substantial optional. So, I wouldn't go hungry; eat first lol. Perfect for a girls night or date night. And there was a large party coming in when I left so it might be good for a larger size group too. I'll definitely be back. ”
“ Aye Candy takes you on a thrilling journey into a candy shop that leads you to a hidden door to an enchanting speakeasy. Please do not be taken back by the area or placement of this spot! The valet is free, but make sure to give these guys a tip. They are awesome. This speakeasy houses a poshly advanced lounge/bar area I have seen around Houston in some time. My 2 friends and I were in Awe. The downfall is that it took over 25 minutes to receive our drink and charcuterie board. Lanry made sure to correct this, and he was a great help! Super nice and attentive. I ordered their vanilla old fashion. (Because I LOVE a good old fashion) I didn't taste any hints of vanilla, there was no signs of a smoked orange peel. The drink was "heavy." It's not my favorite old fashion, but it got the job done. The other drinks my friends ordered were also just okay. I did recognize how delicately the bartenders decorated each drink with care. Amazing how beautiful and unique they made each drink. Another huge plus! I would say what fully seperates this gem is the immaculate ambiance and amazing live saxophone player. 100% made us enjoy this night so much. Everything from the decor to fun, hidden entry way leading to this posh spot was something to remember. Highly recommended for a new and fun speakeasy vibe in Houston! Until next time, Aye Candy! ”
