In Houston today, does any Specs stand out? Are they all pretty much the same?

No, not all the same. Some can be pretty small. Still great, but smaller than the best one that's in Mid Town, which is awesome. You'll pee your pants.
eta- but going during the Holidays can be annoying. I was once there and saw a guy getting 12K worth of Cristal

that's the one
just fyi, you can get a pretty good meal there too for pretty cheap. We'd go for lunch at work all the time.

Yeah...downtown Specs is only one you need to go to. Go to the back of the grocery section and get you a sandwhich.

The one on Smith is the best. I went to a Spec's in El Paso and it was modeled off of the one on Smith. Just a massive place to get everything you need alcohol related.
I saw a guy getting one of the locked up whiskey/cognac/bourbon fifths that sell for like 5k. People spend money in there.

especially at Christmas. All those Oil HQ's and offices Downtown rack up- hence the 12k in Cristal. I was blown away. Put my $100 in different wine for Christmas to shame

You know how I know you're not from inside the loop?
Damn outside the loopers calling it the "downtown Spec's", it's in Midtown not downtown.

TBH, if someone told me to go to the "downtown spec's" I would have no idea where they were talking about.
There are 2 spec's just in midtown, so geography is important.

They had just built one in Rice Military, was a pretty nice one too, and had to shut it down. We were so pissed.
Posted on 11/27/12 at 12:55 pm to TexasTiger05
Why did they have to shut it down?
Posted on 11/27/12 at 12:57 pm to LSUBoo
School Zone or something like that. You would think that would of been brought up before contracts were signed, etc...
Posted on 11/27/12 at 12:58 pm to TexasTiger05
I thought Houston had no zoning?!?
Posted on 11/27/12 at 1:00 pm to LSUBoo
different for the sale of alcohol. And strip clubs? Before we left there was a big thing about strip clubs being shut down because they were in school zones, even if they were there before the school. Idk if that had to do with the alcohol or the nekkedness though.

Strip clubs are a school zone. They are all just earning money for college
