Where to Eat, Stay and Play in Montrose

Montrose is one of Houston’s most vibrant and creative neighborhoods, making it a fantastic destination for soccer fans looking for fun off the pitch. Just west of downtown and spanning four square miles, Montrose is famous for its cutting-edge art galleries, lively music venues, and global dining scene. Visitors can explore everything from neon-lit tattoo parlors, vintage shops, and colorful murals along Westheimer Road to world-class institutions like the Menil Collection and the Rothko Chapel, both essential stops for art enthusiasts.

The area is home to a bustling nightlife. After the match, unwind in one of the area’s many bars or catch live music at legendary spots like Numbers Nightclub or Anderson Fair. The neighborhood’s café culture is perfect for grabbing a morning coffee and people-watching, while local thrift shops like Leopard Lounge and Pavement offer a chance to hunt for unique, retro soccer jerseys or other treasures. Montrose is also renowned for its inclusivity, historic LGBTQ+ venues, and friendly atmosphere—every fan will find something to celebrate in this open, diverse area.
