Situated right along the parade route at 4402 Emancipation Avenue, you’ll have an unobstructed view of all the excitement, without ever leaving your seat—or your brunch!

Brunch Like a Boss

Let’s talk brunch. The Savoy’s menu is a delightful mix of Southern comfort and culinary flair, with over two dozen signature dishes that are bound to satisfy every craving. Whether you're a fan of classics like Chicken & Waffles or feel like indulging in something extra like their famed Lobster and Grits, the menu is a must-see (or must-eat). Red Velvet Chicken & Pancakes, anyone?

The Savoy also doesn’t shy away from the drink scene. Enjoy Mimosa flights with unique flavors like pineapple, lavender, watermelon, and blueberry! And for those looking to take the party up a notch—frozen drink towers and handcrafted cocktails will be flowing.

Vegan? No worries. The Savoy has you covered with options like Vegan Waffles and fresh salads with a choice of grilled shrimp, beef, or chicken. Not to mention, the house-made empanadas (filled with savory delights like slow-cooked lamb and crawfish) are enough to tempt even the pickiest of eaters.

 A Piece of History

Originally constructed in 1940, The Savoy has long been a staple of the Third Ward. However, after a complete renovation by Black and Long Enterprises in 2019, it was relaunched in 2021 and has quickly become one of Houston’s most beloved weekend hotspots. With its community-driven atmosphere, eclectic menu, and craft cocktails, The Savoy has solidified its place as a go-to destination for both locals and visitors alike.
