Monkey's Tail

Monkey's Tail is a Lindale Park neighborhood bar and cantina operated by Barrel of Monkeys Hospitality, the Houston group led by Jessie Gonzales. Known for Mexican-American comfort food (tacos, chips and queso, the Chango Burger) and a large dog-friendly patio, it also runs one of Houston's most-celebrated zero-proof programs: it won Best Mocktail List in the Houston Press Best of Houston 2025 awards. The "Free-Spirited" section of its beverage list features house-built drinks like the Tropi-Carajillo (espresso/cold-brew blend, fresh pineapple, baking spices, gomme syrup), the Penichill'n (Lyre's Highland Malt, salted honey, ginger, grapefruit, lemon, smoky tea), the Picka-Piña (pineapple, chamoy, Giffard grenadine, lime, dill pickle brine, Tajín), and the Viva Maracuyá (passion fruit, mango, tiki spices, lime). House sodas and non-alcoholic beers from Best Day Brewing round out the list.
