    Our waitress was super nice. We arrived as the kitchen was about to close but we had no idea the restaurant closed that early .... Food was good. Fun atmosphere, will return in future

    Perfect neighborhood pub! The food is great, service exceptional. Dandy spot to catch the game. Big kudos to Christian Yonge, the best fella on staff!

    Love the place. Been a patron for many years. Good food, great beer selection but not a fan of the roach running under my queso plate at the bar. Best part about this experience is one of the bartenders witnessed this and didn't say anything at all. Will be a while before the wife and I come back.

    Great historic feeling space with nod to European Pub feel. Super kind service. Pizza is pretty good. Crust could be better, pizza could be bigger. Altogether a great visit. Lots of bugs did interrupt our dinner.

    We popped in for a quick drink while our daughter was at swim lessons. They have an excellent craft beer & wine selection. Our bartender was friendly and fun. Service was quick & efficient. They were very busy! Great patio with water views. We came here last year & enjoyed pizza chips, wings, & pizza. Definitely recommend this place for a delicious meal or quick drink.

    Best pizzas in all of Houston. Great atmosphere. Dogs are welcome on patio. Massive back whiskey room and patio to rent out for parties.

    My wife and I stopped in late Monday night. Google says open to 10pm but the kitchen closes at 9pm so we had to order fast. We went with the Monday BOGO pizza special and got the Tejas and the Jambalaya pizzas. Both were good solid and the had plenty of cheese. Overall they have a large menu with a large selection of craft beers. Staff was very friendly even though it was late and made sure we felt welcome. We would definitely go back again

    Great atmosphere. Bit of a brittish pub vibe. Drink menu is fantastic! Beer, wine, scotch, etc.... Food was all good. Sorry for the photo. But the fish and chips was so good I forgot to get a photo before starting to devour them. Heads up: the parking lot is very cramped. Can be a challenge to find a spot if it is peak hours.

    This place is awesome! It's family friendly. The food is great. There's a good selection of beer. Dogs are allowed on the patio. I highly recommend.

    Used to get great food and drinks here pre Covid. It’s never really been as good since. This visit the artichoke dip was just mostly cheese, kind of bland. The peppers were just ok, a lot going on and canned jalapeños. The mule was bitter, they didn’t have plain deep eddy so made it with Tito’s, I don’t like Tito’s. My second drink I asked for a Topo with Patron and that was delicious as expected. The bar staff are so nice and friendly and attentive.

    The worst Ruben I have had in my life. Paper thin corn beef that was as tough as leather. Sauerkraut was almost slathered on in a thin layer as if it were a condiment. All I could taste was the toasted bread. I understand corn beef is pricey these days but what I was served was not a Ruben.

    Good bar food and great atmosphere and nice beer choices. Found out there was additional space in the back for gatherings. It was nice and enjoyable without drunken rowdiness. Had a nice relaxing time with friends and looking forward to doing it again!

    Food is great. Good variety of options. Seafood,pasta and pizza. The best garlic mashed potatoes

    We love Boondoggles!! It's our go to place that we can take Elvis our dog with us. The food is great, drinks are great and you can't be the atmosphere & staff. The staff is always super friendly. It has become his favorite hangout as well. Follow him on his IG: @LifeofElvis2022. (shameless marketing moment!)

    It is definitely a favorite of mine. For many reasons, it was where my wife and I had our first date. It's where my dog and I share a beer 🍺 😎 and the food is great, and the owner is awesome.

  • 5/5 Timothy O. 8 months ago on Google
    Great pizza!! Yum! Staff was great too and food came out quick. Little pricey, though, but worth it for once in a blue moon.

  • 5/5 Janet G. 8 months ago on Google
    Great food, atmosphere and wonderful service. Would definitely recommend.... try the fish and chips. Kids loved the burgers. Everything was delicious.

  • 5/5 James W. 6 months ago on Google
    Great neighborhood hangout with a cool patio space as well as multiple indoor areas including a dining area, fun bar, and back room. We enjoy their gluten free pizza as well as a great drink menu. It is super kid friendly earlier. Last but certainly not least, their boat dock gives simple access from Clear Lake and Taylor Lake.

  • 5/5 Kathleen W. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome selection of beers! Crazy good pizza and a beautiful location with lots of parking. The staff are really friendly and take good care of you. I’ve been many times and gotten the same great service, food and atmosphere each time.

  • 3/5 Anthony P. 1 year ago on Google
    Cool place for a beer, maybe an afternoon snack. Not a great spot for quality food the menu was mostly bar food -sub par pizza-average wings. I likely would not return. Thought it was mostly a beer hall type! But the wait staff was very friendly and attentive! Tweak the food a bit and you’ve got yourself a glad slam! Right on the water with nice outdoor amenities !!

  • 5/5 Billy N. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food and I didn't know what to drink so I asked the server to pick me out a good beer and it was a great choice he brought me. Great atmosphere and plenty of TV's to watch games and shows. Also outdoor eating area that is pet friendly makes for a nice add on for the whole family. I love to see pet friendly establishments and will always support them. Great job Boondoggle's inside and out.

  • 3/5 Jessica A. 1 year ago on Google
    Great service, but mediocre food. If I ordered pizza or wings my review would probably be better but I order the Alcapulco chicken which had 0 seasoning or flavor.

  • 5/5 Robby B. 1 year ago on Google
    This restaurant and bar is a signature establishment for the area. There’s a reason why people from out of town ask me to take them there, otherwise they feel like they didn’t get the full experience on their trip. The food (especially the pizzas) is fantastic and it’s the type of place where I typically either make friends or run into someone I know. I’m also very happy to be able to host and perform a public show in their upstairs event room.

  • 5/5 J.L. Holubec I. 1 year ago on Google
    Super good place. Hadn't been here in a while for no reason other than distance from home lol but was in the area and still as good as I remember. Pizza is awesome. Kids enjoyed their burger and tenders and my girlfriend enjoyed her salad. Will definitely have to come back sooner. Definitely stop by. Oh yeah, they also are dog friendly(on the patio).

  • 5/5 G R. 2 years ago on Google
    Been coming since they brewed their own beer!! Pizzas are fantastic always and always a few great craft beers on draft. Friendly staff! A true gem.

  • 5/5 Manmohan S. 2 years ago on Google
    Pizza here is really great. The wings were also super crisp and flavorful. The staff was very friendly and doggy friendly. A great place to hang out with your human and furry friends.

    My wife and I were looking for a spot to hang out for a bit, we were on our way to see the fireworks at Khema but it was a bit early so we had some time on our hands to spare. We came to Boondoggle's and the place was very cozy, before we reached the door we were greeted and one of the employees opened the door for us to welcome us in. There was no wait to be seated, the place was not packed it being New Year's Eve we were lucky to find a place open so we were seated right away. We ordered fried ravioli to start which was amazing, it had just the right amount of spice to be enjoyed, I had a lemonade which was ok it was pink lemonade, I was hoping they had a more natural version with fresh squeezed lemons instead but the pink lemonade sufficed. My wife had a Margarita on the Rocks made with Patron which she Loved. To eat we ordered the pizza that comes with the four cheeses, I forgot the name but it was Delicious. We loved the place and look forward to keep coming here in the future, we recommend this place.

👍👍 Loved this, sort of hidden gem that’s open to the public now! Hubs and I were having date night and he asked if I wanted to try out a new place. I was hesitant b/c I was getting tired and chilly. I asked if it was inside or out, he said both. So glad I went with it and we have found a new place on t...
