Rose Garden

Ice cold 2$ beers and the worst parking ever! I absolutely love this place! Don't let the parking throw you off, this is a great hidden gem. Great people, great atmosphere an absolute Houston treasure.

It's a really cute house turned bar in the middle of The Heights.My friends and I came here after dinner for drinks and conversation back in June. Really cheap beer and glasses of chilled wine (2 types). There's an old jukebox if you're in the mood for tunes, but we just wanted to catch up on the years I was out of state. Rose is such a sweet heart and made us feel welcomed as newcomers. There were some local regulars already there snacking on peanuts and drinking beer.CASH only! And make sure you bring bug spray during the summer months or else you'll get eaten alive out in the pretty rose garden patio!!

I was at Rose Garden tonight (for the first time), and I couldn't have had a more welcoming experience. Really cute place. This is the definition of a friendly neighborhood bar, and I believe these people are like a small family. Ideal place to take a friend to have a beer and just talk for hours. I may not go every day, but I'll be back to Rose Garden soon and often.

Rose Garden is a throw back dive that is slowing being surrounded by townhomes in Sunset Heights. The bar is of the last remaining ice houses that was purpose-built in the 1930's to serve the predominantly Polish (read beer guzzling) residents of the time. There's no booze, but you can bring your own.The owner, Rose Marie, is behind the bar and knows as much about the regulars as she does about her family. Newbies shouldn't be intimidated. She's accomodating. So show up with your buddies, but don't act like assholes. Rose stood up to a shot gun wielding bandit last Fall. She'll have no qualms about smacking you five across the lips.What you really need to know:+ the jukebox kicks ass+ good timing will result homemade Polish sausages on the house+ lovers of velvet Elvi will be in heaven+ ordering a Heineken will result in ridicule, get a Lone Star instead

We just moved from our old house that was down the road from the Rose Garden and it is a big disappointment not being able to walk a block to get to this place.Fantastic people welcome you in, with polka and country music playing in the background! Great service and conversation are abundant and you can now enjoy the outdoor patio while the mosquitoes are away.There is a small brisket buffet setup inside that is great for when you get a hankering for a snack.It is hard to describe this place, so visit, you will not be disappointed!

In a town like Houston - where EVERYONE is friendly - this place is not so friendly. Which makes me sorry to say. If you want a great dive bar, keep rolling. The regulars and the proprietress are all about keeping outsiders out and insiders in :(

A great "True Texan Dive Bar" atmosphere. Rose is friendly and I truly enjoyed coming here. It's a great place to meet people and in my opinion is better than other bars in the area. Beers for $2 and wine for $3 and setups for $2. A great bar!

I love the name "Rose." There's something about it, and anyone named it, that you can't help but love. The naive Rose from "Golden Girls," my childhood favorite cartoon, Rose Petal, Rose from Titanic ... uh, Axl Rose. And then there's Rose Marie, the sassy -- yet incredibly sweet -- owner of the local neighborhood dive, Rose Garden.Set in The Heights, this unassuming bar is perfect for a low-key night with the gang: seriously cold bottled beer, a jukebox filled with country classics, pool table and gazebo-like patio. Everyone certainly knows everyone here, and on my first visit last night, I quickly felt the love -- along with a good buzz with their $1.50 a pop (cash only) prices. And to end this review on an even more positive note, a relative of Rose Marie offered to walk us ladies back to our friend's casa. How sweet is that? I can't even get a dude to open a door for me...

Retro neighborhood dive bar. Great Juke box, pool table, bottled beer. Friendly place.

Love this historic Polish bar! Great owner and all of the regulars! Rose is an awesome bar owner and makes you feel right at home here.
