Please feel free to offer new locations for meet and greets. Also, label where the location is in relation to the center of Houston. North, South, West or Central. We dropped east a while back due to lack of peeps showing up.

Nomercy...have you been to the place? I looked it up on line and they don't include their prices (which makes me wonder), plus they said reservations recommended. Plus their webpage is not as down to earth looking as the flyer you posted...more high scale looking...cloth napkins/tablecloths, wine glasses...they list wine and sparkling water on their menu, but no beer. Concerned that they might be a little more upper class then this group is used to, lol.

Noah's Ark bar and grill in bacliff. Good food. Plenty of bike parking. And a great view of the bay.

Seafood, Crawfish, beer, great people.

This place has great BBQ.
Is it too far north for a north-side M&G?
(it is on the far south end of the lake)

In my opinion it is too far north for a week night M&G....sounds like a great place for a ride on a Sat or Sun lunch.

Mike, I am concerned that this location is too far south to draw enough riders to attend. Anybody else have an opinion?
-
I'd like to nominate a new place on the south side of town called Bone Daddy's. It's new, only been open a couple of months. It's a BBQ style restaurant with a service them similar to Twin Peaks. I ate there this weekend for the first time and the food is awesome. They also have dedicated motorcycle parking on the north side of the building. It's right on the east side of I45 just north of NASA Road 1 and south of Bay Area Blvd. They also play great classic rock and blues music inside.

Years ago, I always made it to the one in Dallas and Austin when I would visit some friends. If the one down here is of the same caliber, it's a good place.

here is a list of the 10 best burger places in houston for 2013.

It's too bad that Little Bigs will probably be gone by the time we get back around to it. The "La Di Da" restaurants have taken up the parking area and the employees and security guards take up Little Bigs parking. Doesn't leave much for LB customers. I expect LB will succumb to the parking war.

To add, Wednesday at MaK's is $1 Taco night. By Taco they mean Fajita with all the fixins. Beef, Chicken, Shrimp or Chirizo and they are fantastic. Nothing like 2 beers and dinner for $5.

Beach Bums on FM2920 by Rhodes (I think) has $10 Steak Night on Wednesday and it's damn good. It comes with a Salad, baked potato and 12oz T-bone for $10. It's a bar and feels like a bar but the food is excellent.
Concert Pub @ FM1960 and Kuykendahl is another one with food deals and usually not very crowded. If they are the Boat is next door. I had the $1 Hamburger there a few weeks ago. Fries were $2...LOL. Between the Burger, fries and $1 beer I spent under $10 and left feeling very thrifty. The burger wasn't bad....but wasn't great. They have other food which is much better but not $1.
These two and MaK's are the only places I have gone to on Wednesday on the bike. I am sure that Wolfies is good but I heard the one on FM1960 has gone down hill a lot so probably will stick to the one in the Woodlands. There is a biker bar on the feeder just south of Rayford Sawdust I need to check out, they had crawfish but don't know if they serve food regular. It's a real dive, good atmosphere. There is the place (can't remember the name) in Tomball just off the main road, outside seating and really good eats. I have hit that on a Sunday afternoon before and it was really cool.

I will locate these places and add them to the rotation to give them a try.
One thing to keep in mind regarding locations for M&Gs is that we need a place where the atmosphere is not so loud we cannot hear each other talk. We went to a bar/food place a few weeks back and it was impossible to communicate with each other...defeats the purpose of getting together.
Beer/drinking is a fun part of the M&G, but the main purpose is BSing with each other and if we can't do that then why have a M&G at all?

Just a few that were already here, some posted by others and some by me plus I added a couple. I am sure there are tons more but I don't know all the cool little hidden places in the Spring/Tomball Area. I know that Mak's and Beachbums are bars that have specials on Wednesday. Beach Bum's is a dump pretty much but the food is really good. I was surprised that Mel's wasn't already on the list, it's really hidden good but a LOT of people know where it is. Great catfish and lots of fried stuff.
