Summer LeeNovember 13, 2012Wednesday is glass night and it is my fave ! Buy a beer and you keep the glass =) and try the pretzels theyr'e are soft and buttery.... not exaggerating, they're the best I've ever had !
This saucer location is great. The staff is super friendly and the beer is good and cold. The food isn't bad either. I usually sit at the bar and get helped out within a minute Regulars are friendly
Luciana MadrigranoMarch 3, 2016Found it by chance after walking by the downtown... I was hungry and the bar food was great, but it's a must go place for the beer lovers!
My favorite beer bar! I Come in for lunch and try to do evenings/nights out with friends. Trivia night is fun too
Cynthia NicoleMay 20, 2013Lots of microbrews on tap, w/ new ones coming in all the time. You can get sampler trays which are awesome! Join the UFO Club, get a free t-shirt. Reach 200 beers and get name plate & $100 beer party!
Ryan WyattMay 8, 2015The Friday lunch special rocks: bratwurst on a bun with just the right amount of mustard and awesome sauerkraut (speckled with rye seeds). Washed down with an IPA I hadn’t tried before. Yum!
Danielle NicoleMay 26, 2015They don't just have beer here- there's three super yummy ciders to try too. I'm obsessed with the pineapple cider! And food is way above typical bar food.
- This place is great. The beer selection is amazing and always changing. This is the place to come if you want to get something other than your everyday beer.
B.E.KMay 13, 2018Bira, bira, bira ve yine bira... Yemek eh işte, ortam çok iyi. Great place to grab a beer ( two page menu to choose from) after work.
Brandi MorganJuly 1, 2016Great beer selection. It is always changing and the awesome staff are always willing to help you find something. I love the Saucer Brazel! Sign up for the U.F.O card! It's worth it.
Don GApril 2, 2023Flying Bratzel was impressive and delicious. Great bear selection. Wife had a salad which was perfect for her
My Table MagazineJune 14, 2013This downtown joint is serious about beer and caters to those who feel the same way. The walls are covered with brass plates earned by diehards (here they’re referred to as “Masters of the Universe... Read more
The beer spot that caters to all! Want awesome newly released Craft brews? Got em. Want watered down mainstream beers? Got those too.
ELS Language CentersMay 25, 2012This fun spot has a wide variety of quality craft beers in addition to a full menu of sandwiches, wings, pizza, and fries. They offer hundreds of varieties of beer- literally! Meals $10 to $20.
Oscar EHAugust 25, 2015One of my favorite places in Downtown Houston, try Sour Beer, is not so good but the flavor is one on it's kind !!
Monday trivia nights are a great time. SCIENCE!! So many beers to choose from too! The saucer bratzel is tasty and comes with a spicy dipping sauce. Join the UFO club and get your saucer on the wall!
Men's Health MagNovember 15, 2011This hot sun makes a man crave something strong. The walls of this place are filled with taps, and not a Bud logo in sight. Go for the Saucer Black n Tan: Sierra Nevada Pale ale with Guinness on top.
Jason H.October 16, 2017Truly impressive array of beers. Come here and try something different than your norm. Food-wise though - the pizza was cardboard.....eat elsewhere.
Martin PullerAugust 3, 2021Point your phone browser at beerknurd.com and see the beer selection at any Flying Saucer. Lots of info about each beer too!
TopSpot Internet MarketingDecember 26, 2013Tuesday night trivia at the Saucer made Project Manager Niki's top geek places in Houston list. Find her there, where she'll won't be using Google for once.

Mike SeilbackDecember 29, 2015Amazing beer selection. Food is decent - a bit too much German food for my liking. Great atmosphere- Brandy M.December 29, 2014Hummingbird water and the Saucer Bratzel were amazing! Must try! And the chili was pretty good too.
VwEryVery nice place with big varaity of different beers, the food is also good
Axel LopezMay 21, 2013This is just amazing! I'm not a beer lover and I fell in love with the first beer I tried :)
I have one plate here in Houston, and one in Kansas City! My plate in Kansas City states: "Houston, we have a problem. I need another beer!" The Saucer is fun wherever you find them...
I K. HayNovember 10, 2017Huge variety of biers. Nice ambience. Just a bit chilling inside with the a/c turned on.
Batuhan"Bush" ANovember 16, 2015Mac and Cheese is amazing. Lovers of it should taste it.. Just the right spiciness..
Roberta BornMay 28, 2011EXCELLENT beer! The Belgium Framboise one, served in a champagne glass is outstanding! Really cool atmosphere and great to just chill out.
Seth VongJanuary 18, 2016The atmosphere and service here is no where near the one in Ft. Worth. Had it not been for the craft brew selection, I would have left.
Huge tap list with nice rotation. Bartenders seem too busy to discuss the beer. Wait stuff doesn't seem to know the beer.
Giancarlo ZMarch 30, 2013Hands down this is the best brewery in Houston; good food; all around awesome spot.
Monday night 2.75 drafts. Try Victory's Golden Monkey, the most bang for your buck at a 8.5 or greater alcohol content. Sunday night 2.75 Texas Drafts and forget about that Shiner Bach, get with the b
Great rotation on their beers. The bratzel is worth every penny.- Briana RodriguezJune 21, 2015Kick ass chicken sandwich is fantastic. Same with the jalapeño tater tot poppers.
Laura GraceyJuly 12, 2015After 10 years, the beer cheese soup served in a bread bowl is still the best!
Really good craft beer bar. The food is good and the service great.
Aaron WieczorekJanuary 3, 2016Great place for a huge variety of beers, but none particularly interesting.
