Been out far too late and having hunger pains? Here are a few spots you can stop into for a quick bite and some fun as well.
The House of Pies (multiple locations) - Picture a roadside diner with its pie counter and wholesome (i.e. not low fat) menu items... now transport that to the center of Houston and you have a small glimpse of the House of Pies. Come in for a slice of strawberry Rhubarb pie (or any of over 35 others) or order a burger topped with chili and a side of tater tots (called the Chili-Size); either will banish your hunger.
Chachos - In the mood for quick Mexican food? Only have a little spare change? Big group of friends with you? Then head down Westheimer to Chachos. This bright pink building stays open and provides some of the biggest nacho plates and burritos you've ever seen - all for pennies. Bring an appetite and on the weekends, prepare to wait a while: the line can get pretty hefty right after the bars let out. If you get there before 2am, be sure to order one of their margaritas - you'll be smiling while your friends get thirsty!
Whataburger - Yes, it’s a chain burger joint located all over the city. However, when you want a fresh grilled burger or chicken sandwich, nothing hits the spot as quickly (and tastily) as a Whataburger drive through. Pull up, order a burger (go for the triple if you're really hungry) and wait for 2-3 minutes. You'll be rewarded with a happy stomach and be ready to head out for more fun.
