Sherlock’s Baker St Pub

Wasn’t croyded. Temperature inside was cool. Band was good Sugar Rush. Mixtrue of rock. Not much to say. Typical bar. Lots of drunks.

I live and work nearby Bakers Street in The Woodlands (waterway), so this location has been a frequently visited spot for myself and my guests of friends, family and clientele. After being a 3^rd party witness to rude and unresponsive waitstaff in past visits, I wondered how the staff stays employed and this place stays open. The location is great, but at every past visit, food has never been more than mediocre and service is usually quite terrible. I see advertising for hiring staff there regularly.
My last visit there a few weeks ago was the final straw. While in attendance, not only were two members of the waitstaff assigned to our area not serving our table within 30 minutes of sitting down in a half empty establishment, but when one waitress did finally did come to help us and we were not «friendly» (no yelling, name calling or any other unprofessional actions by myself or my guests… but clearly not happy) and we were then told we would not be served. After asking to speak to a manager, two male managers emerged from an office/​kitchen and without explanation, we were told by the one of the two managers I had never seen (he said he was the GM) that our business was not wanted and we should leave. When I asked why (again, not yelling… but clearly upset), the GM proceeded to get physically very close to me and aggressively pointed at the door while yelling for me to leave.
I have NEVER been treated so poorly and with no explanation. I immediately left feeling physically threatened and will never return nor will I ever recommend this establishment again.
I now fully understand while the majority of the patrons there are in their 20s and why there is trouble maintaining any decent staff. Any self respecting individual would not work under management like that for longer than absolutely necessary.

Would really like to enjoy the place as it has live music, they let smokers inside and out will not spend my $$$ for drinks there unless free drinks and food as they gotten better

I went bye on a Thursday afternoon around 5 because I heard that 97.5 the Blitz would be there and I really enjoy those guys. Apparently they were hosting a poker tournament. The place wasn’t very full considering it was Happy Hour. The vibe felt pretty good, the place was clean.
The guy checking IDs at the entrance was really nice and friendly. He waved a few people through before me and greeted them by name, so obviously the staff is consistent here and the place is good enough to attract regulars.
I’d definitely come back for a happy hour beverage anytime.

The afternoon crowd is where the Cheers atmosphere is. One of the only few pubs left to let in smokers. But really their air ventilation is fine. I never leave smelling smoky. I go for the company of friends I’ve made in the past two yrs. Its my go to pub.

Walked in, couldn’t find a table, walked out. So I can’t say much about the place other then it seems to have a nice little patio area and a chill vibe inside. The set up of the bar leads me to believe that it gets crowded and hard to navigate around. I’d give it another go if I’m in the area, but its not worth driving 30 minutes to get to just to go there.

It is way too smoky inside, but it’s a bar so… The potato skins are the best I have found in Texas.

We went back to Baker Street after about a 12 month hiatus. It’s safe to say we won’t be going back anytime soon. Couldn’t quite put our finger on what was wrong, it was just wrong, service was good, food was good except for fried macaroni balls, positively disgusting to grand kids and adults! It’s just didn’t have the atmosphere it used to have.

We went here for lunch so my entire party ordered off of the lunch menu. I ordered a soup and half sandwich. The soup was broccoli cheddar, which was the soup of the day and was similar in quality and taste to panera bread’s. The half sandwich I ordered was the turkey avocado. The sandwich was fairly decent, but the avocado seemed to be guacamole and not close to fresh avocado. The bar area is divided by a barrier and doesn’t seem that it allows for good passing and easy accessibility to get drinks. There are a few tvs around the dining room, so it was nice to watch some live college basketball during lunch. They hide the bathroom behind a door that blends in with the décor. Almost like a secret passage way behind a book case. Overall a decent place to check out.

I dont know why but most of the «Baker St. Pub’s» are quite disappointing compared to Sherlocks Pub’s. This place in the forest maze I like to call The Woodlands. Do they believe in parking lots? I’m unfamiliar with the layout of The Woodlands so it took me about 15 – 20 minutes just to find out how to get there from 45. It cost me 10 dollars to park in a garage across the street, of course I could have just driven down the road and walked for 5 minutes but I would have had the choice to park for free. Damn
I get inside and snag a small booth while I wait for my blind date to show up. I’ve never had any luck with blind dates, but I figured I would give it another shot. Turns out it worked pretty damn well. Anyways, I’m not Unilocaling Tricia (the blind date), Im Unilocaling the place. The beer was ok, kinda bitter what can I expect when I’m used to drinking dark beer, then I turn back to Michelob Ultra for my health.
I asked my waitress for a drink menu because I had no idea what my date would want to order, except that I know she wants something fruity. Not beer. Strike number 1! Im kidding. Well, the waitress informed me that they dont have menu’s for drinks. In fact they don’t have menu’s for anything anymore. They pulled them off last week. Im assuming they’re changing the prices on things.
The layout of the bar seemed very enclosed and cramped. Its not a small place, but the way it was designed doesn’t allow for much people to hang out by the bar.
Date: A+
Drinks: B–
Venue: F… for epic fail.
I will never go back.
