EaDo has quietly become one of Houston's best neighborhoods for eating and drinking — and its location right beside Minute Maid Park makes it the natural home base for a food-and-baseball weekend. Here's the lay of the land.
The brewery scene
East Downtown is the beating heart of Houston craft beer. A cluster of independent breweries sits within walking distance of each other, most with big taprooms, rotating food trucks, and easygoing patios. A weekend afternoon spent walking between a few of them is one of the best cheap thrills in the city.
Where to eat
- Tacos and Tex-Mex — Houston does this better than almost anywhere.
- Barbecue — Texas smoke, done right.
- International eats — EaDo reflects Houston's incredible diversity, from Vietnamese to Korean to Latin American.
Make it a game weekend
With Minute Maid Park right there, the easy plan is a brewery crawl in the afternoon, dinner in the neighborhood, and a game at night — all without moving your car. It's the kind of low-stress, high-fun weekend EaDo was made for.
