From the people that brought you Poison Girl presents, Poison Girl Part 2: Little Dipper Lounge. Basically everything that's about Poison Girl is now here in downtown minus the backyard patio and dark lighting, oh and a bit less pinballs. But one of the reason I like about this place over the other bars on the 300 Main blocks is that the price is pretty good as for $5, you can get a shot of Jager and a Lone Star to chase it. Yes, I know Jager is probably what you down back in high school but it brings back memories, right?

Jokes on her because I live seconds away walking distance of going to that bar. FOREVER LOST MY BUSINESS. And will tell my friends to NEVER go...
Read moreI had my worst experience ever in any bar in Houston at Little Dipper. The bartender was not friendly at all — she didn’t even smile once.
When I tried to order another drink before happy hour ended, she refused and said she’d take my order only after I finished my current drink. I explained I wanted to order before happy hour was over, but she replied, “It’s just 50¢ more,” which felt really rude and dismissive.
It was honestly the first time in all my years in North America that I didn’t leave a tip for anyone. She seemed completely discouraged and uninterested in her job.
Totally a bad experience for me. Whether you want to try this place or not —...
