    The overloaded chickwich comes packed with shreds of tender, truly smoky BBQ chicken, crispy onions, coleslaw, and an oozing fried egg, all on a pillowy, eggy bun. Read more

    It's tempting to overlook a place like Beaver's as it settles into a comfortable middle age, but that would mean missing out a place that still has a talented bar staff making creative cocktails.

    During HH $1 off all drafts, $2 off cocktails, $5 carafes of trash can punch, & $4 house wines. Also, bar snacks like pimiento cheese risotto tots, hotwings, & our fav bbq-beef-loaded queso around. Read more

    Loved the Tots-N-Shots cool twist on tots. Any of the Mac-N-Cheeses! I had a Duck Reuben, but it's not on the menu anymore. Big portions, so splitting is a good way to try stuff out.

    The fried pickles are not to be missed. Pickle spears, not slices (makes a HUGE difference) are tempura-like battered and served with chipotle ranch sauce. Delish! Read more

    Work your way through the entire drink menu. Every drink is worth the wait (all drinks made with care take time) & the cash (although happy hour can help your wallet). Snap, Crackle n Mint = my fav.

    Chicken Fried Steak. Get it along with an app or addition side and you have a meal for two, easy. Super delicious, one of the best in Houston!

    It's quirky, it's in a cool neighborhood and it's got great food. Ironically, it was originally billed as a bbq restaurant, but it's the other stuff that gets them noticed. [Eater 38 Member]

    The BBQ sampler is a ton of great food. You can share it, or you can get drunk on interesting craft cocktails and drunk eat it alone.

    Great food!! I had the Chicken Fried Steak and Wifey had BBQ Mac & Cheese, both were top notch. Only negative was the service, very slow and not very attentive.

    Two things and two things only need to be ordered the Mac and cheese and beaver balls AMAZING!!!!!!! Everything else is really tasty as well but those two take it all

    This is comfort food: fried pickles, sausages, Carolina-style pulled pork. They use organic and hormone-free meats, sourced from local farms. Read more

    Place to-go orders extra early. Never been less than double the time they've promised. Great food! Service-lax and perhaps to a detriment. Love this place when the service is good.

    The mac n' cheese is awesome. The bacon biscuit omelet is wonderful and the gravy is super good! The beaver balls are a must try. Everything is DAM good! You won't be disappointed.

    Billing itself as a “gastropub meets Texas icehouse,” Beaver’s is really neither of those things and something greater than the sum of those descriptions. Read more

    Try the Beaver's Balls - Panko covered, deep fried brownie balls served with ice cream and white chocolate sauce. The Beaver Burger is amazing too. Get it with shrooms, cheddar and crispy onions.

    Located in a former icehouse, Beaver's maintains the tradition of these casual eating-and-drinking spots with easy-drinking "Front Porch" cocktails, "beer-tails" and terrific slow-cooked barbecue.

    Cool spot. Really nice, laid back staff. I had the shrimp and oyster po-boy, and it was delicious.

    The bbq baked potatoe is my favorite and no matter how full you get it is impossible to resist their amazing bread pudding.

    Carolina style pulled pork is on point. Mac N Cheese is savory and satisfying and the Beaver Balls are decadent and delicious.

    Get a pint of one of Houston's local brews, and order the brisket sandwich. It's a receipt for a great day!

    Smoked duck special was excellent. I'd come back just for the duck. Pass on the beef shoulder - tough and not all that smokey.

    Unpredictable service. Are frequently "out" of portions of dishes on menu, but you won't find out until something unexpected lands in front of you. Manager was less than apologetic.

    Made with four of the creamiest, tangiest cheeses, if you don't order the mac 'n cheese, we guarantee you'll regret it.

    A little pricey for diner food. Get the lunch specials instead. For less than many entrees, you'll get salad, drink, and more.
