Jose and Allison were very attentive and had great vibes! Everytime we come we're happy to see Jose and his bubbly attitude! My bestie and I come for HH of course and the drinks always hit! Definitely considered a regular by now!

Allison and Jose are the BEST! Literally love coming on days when they are working, it's preferred truly. They are always so kind and welcoming and I always end up staying longer than I anticipated because the food and drinks are so dang good! I'm so grateful to have found a place like General Public!

I used their event room there to just my brother's 50th Bday party. There was a total of 17 of us and I worked with Ingrid to coordinate all the details. I was thankful that she was a to work within my budget. The day of the event Alyssa our server did a fabulous job of making sure everything came on a timely fashion. Everyone loved the appetizers and all came out right on time! Alyssa then took everyone's order as they snack on the appetizers and food can out in a reasonable time as well. We did cake at a specific time and everyone was able to continue mingling and all checks were closed out so the entire group could walk over to the Music Box theatre for our 730 show time! Timing was very important for us to make it at 7 to the show get our drinks of choice and seated on time! Thank you Alyssa for a job well done and making sure all was executed flawlessly!! I couldn't have done this without your amazing service!! Until next time!!

Had a great time here.. the appetizers were good and so were the drinks! My server / bartender was Christian he was very attentive and helpful with ordering! The place is sorta like a sports bar but upscale! There's a lot of free parking, and a bowling alley next door so dinner and games ok and plus shopping!

Intro: I have now been to The General Public three times (twice in CityCentre and once in San Antonio). Both times in Houston have been for drinks. This regional chain is located in CityCentre which means your best bet is parking in the complimentary parking garage. Ambiance (4/5): The General Public is a visually appealing bar and restaurant. The decor is elegant and comfortable. There's seating at the bar and plenty of semi-circular booths. I have sat at both. Service (4/5): Not the fastest but they do the job. Above average service on both of my visits. Food (N/A): While I haven't had food at this location, I had their duck wings at their San Antonio location which I recommend. How often do you see duck wings on a menu?! Drinks (4.5/5): Interesting cocktail list along with a solid beer list. Wine too. I went with a tiki drink on my last visit. Overall, their cocktail list is pretty creative. And here's the coolest thing: at sundown, each day, if you're there, you get a complimentary shot. I have never seen another restaurant do this: awesome concept. The sun goes down and we celebrate! Overall: If you're looking for a bar in CityCentre, The General Public is your best choice.

Great ambiance especially for a happy hour. We parked at the garage and walked to the location since there's limited metered parking in City Center. We also made a reservation because it's busy on a Friday. They had some great choices for restaurant week and they were a good portion unlike other places that serve smaller. For an appetizer I got the Kung Pao chicken lettuce wraps which if you don't like spicy is doable but additive. The stuffed mushrooms are also good. For the main meal I had the harvest bowl with shrimp. For dessert they were small desserts in a jar. I got to try the lemon mousse and the cheesecake, which were both filling even though they were small because the harvest bowl is large. Overall the food was good and the service was friendly and attentive.
