Their sangria is so good, but you will get drunkie lolDefinitely a fun dive bar. The bar isn't super big, but they do have a patio.

Not all dive bars are bad, and i wish this one was one of those.Inconsistent service, un friendly staff, you know where this is going. I wish it was a good hangout spot, unfortunately its just not. I tried a few times here, and it just isn't service oriented.

This spot is definitely on my dive bar radar. It has all the things that make a dive bar great. It's small and cozy. It's full of regulars & locals. It's dark with a pool table and a couple video games. And the patio/parking lot is as cozy as the bar itself. I wasn't there for a long time, but sure as heck had a good time.

Finally made it to Sassafras and it definitely lived up to the hype! What a wonderful neighborhood dive bar, full of friendly locals who would love to chat. Parking in the front may be small but there is a second (connected) lot in the back, follow the signs around the block and you'll come straight to the second lot. Full bar options with excellent homemade sangrias, both red and white. If you're looking for an intimate, casual place to hang out and have a low-key evening with friends, this is the bar for you.

Perfect for group outdoor seating. It was mad people smoking cigarettes . But I sucked it up for the group. Nice sangrias. The inside was freezing cold. Would come back if I was forced and/or a smoker

I was actually disappointed today. I love wine bars and have generally had great experiences in these places. The place itself is a decent place. The location seems a little sketch but they have a good patio and the parking was full as their happy hour goes from 4 to 8pm. But lets face it, its a little better than a dive bar. So when my single 6oz pour of Cabernet was charged $13 I was a little miffed. In fact I don't even know if this was a 6oz pour. This place isn't worth $13 for a single goblet of whatever. There are way better places that are less expensive than this. Seriously disappointing. I would have come here more often if the wine was up to $8 for a glass. When I asked the bartender she said that the Cabernet wasn't on the happy hour menu. The décor on the patio is a little quaint. Read furniture is old and nicked at several places and the inside was like a grungy bar. Listen, I know with the pandemic and all its hard to keep a business going and so you don't want to lower prices willy nilly. Besides its been difficult to get waitstaff. But the bar was half full for people for the happy hour. I would have appreciated if the bartender had offered me a happy hour wine list or at least told me ahead of time that the cabernet was not on the happy hour menu. But either way the price tag is pretty stiff for a cabernet, for that kind of bar. It's going to be hard for me to go back.

I'm pretty sure Sassafras earns the proud distinction of being the first dive bar I've ever been to in Houston. Having said that, for a dive bar; Sassafras has a unique nuanced décor that you won't find in most bars that are considered 'dives'. Come for a good drink or two, craft brew and some easy bar talk but you'll also have a lot to look at when you take a look at the subtle attention to detail. Apparently they are cat lovers. This will become obvious once you take a look around and notice the live cats hang'n out, outside and the cat figurines inside. Cat's are cool, I can dig it.

I'm a sucker for a good neighborhood bar. Smoke-scented walls... dim, seedy lighting... bartenders that know your order just by looking at you. Sassafras is all that, plus some Hasselhoff razzle-dazzle.I usually only get a few hours out every other week, so I am that annoying customer who asks for creative shots to speed up the drunk process. The bartenders at Sassafras never miss a beat. They've whipped up some concoctions that would make even Baywatch-era David Hasselhoff blush (in a good way, of course). They're patient with my indecisiveness and always manage to send me on my way with a drink that's both potent and delicious. Two thumbs up for strong cocktails, chill vibes, and a staff that knows how to have fun.
