This entertainment complex is part upscale sports bar and part driving range. At 70,000 square feet, it's easily Houston's largest sports bar, but to call it just a sports bar would be an insult. Among its features are a rooftop terrace with fire pits, several lounges and bars and a from-scratch kitchen. Its three stories are home to 102 well-appointed bays that can comfortably accommodate 10 guests (six players and another four spectators). With an army of bartenders, bay "caddies" and food runners, you'll never go hungry or thirsty.

Hours: 9 a.m.-midnight Sundays-Thursdays; 9 a.m.-1 a.m. Fridays-Saturdays
