MORE THINGS TO DO IN HOUSTON

The historic Savoy, located at 4402 Emancipation Ave, was built as a neighborhood bar in 1940 and holds a special place in the community as a historic gathering spot for the African American community. From 1940 to 2023, The Savoy has only had three owners, the last of which is current owner Black and Long Enterprises, who purchased it in 2019, did a full-scale renovation, and launched in the fall of 2021.

Over the last two years, The Savoy has quietly evolved from a trendy bar with food truck service to one of the best gathering spots in the Third Ward for hand-crafted cocktails, Mega Drink Towers, amazing signature dishes like their renowned Lamb Sliders and Grilled Lobster N Mac, and a spacious outdoor patio with seating for up to 250 people.

The new owners of The Savoy are committed to revitalizing and expanding the historic Emancipation Avenue Third Ward neighborhood. Their vision includes adding more restaurants and venues to further enhance the community's vibrant spirit and provide additional spaces for residents to enjoy.
