A neighborhood bar for kindred spirits
Back when Houston Heights was dry, the drinks kept flowing. Secret clubs. Low lights. Lively gatherings. You had to be in the know. We’re keeping that spirit alive, just without the hush-hush.
Introducing Bar Daphne — a modern neighborhood cocktail bar in the heart of The Heights. No password required. It’s everything you want in a neighborhood bar: welcoming service, bold cocktails, killer bar bites. Right on the corner of Ashland and 20th. All kindred spirits welcome.
The cocktails? They’ve got stories. Named after the original modern paintings hanging throughout the space. Come enjoy a beer, a glass of wine, and zero-proof options as well. And while you’re here, grab a bite. We’ve got something to snack on, something to share.
Our doors open at 5 PM nightly. Stop in anytime. Leave in good spirits.
