Gulf Coast Distillers

Giant Texas deserves all the love it can get. The kind of place you tell your friends about. What a place! It offers many fun nights with great food and drinks. The bartenders here are awesome and fun, make you feel like a regular on day 1. You can also get select bottles engraved with your name or logo. They offer distillery tours as well and everything here is Houston made. Don’t even think twice about it, just come.

I just recently discovered this place a few days ago. I was in the area so i decided to stop by. Looks like i found me a nice little hidden gem that i will gladly be coming back to. Bartender Glen was awesome, the food was great and the whiskey was really good as well. I ordered an old fashioned but he was kind enough to let me try a few samples of different whiskey which were all very tasty. My fav was the 120 proof. Bottom line, i will definitely be coming back and im definitely telling my friends about this spot so come check it out. I highly recommend the high proof burger as well.

Excellent little distillery. Good food, super friendly staff and some excellent drinks. They offer tours, but when we arrived we had just missed it, so make sure you book yours online ahead of time. Don't forget to try the peanut butter and jalapeño whiskey (yes it sounds weird but it's actually delicious). Our burger we shared was great (bacon cheeseburger) and the sweet potato fries were some of the best I've ever tasted.

Our rodeo committee held a social at Giant Texas Distillers on a Thursday night and much to my surprise, it was DEAD! It was my first time there, so I thought... "this doesn't bode well..." BUT, it just showed me that this place deserves MORE credit and MORE crowds! The service, food, and cocktails were all top notch! Not a single thing to complain about. The vibe was totally cool as well, and...bonus! They had football on! We didn't get a tour of the distillery, but you can get a great view of it, and the aroma is outstanding. Do yourself a favor, and stop by this underrated place for dinner and drinks. Bring your pals, plan a party, have a social! You won't be disappointed.

From Mike “Big Chief” Hiatt – The Whiskey Trip Podcast If you find yourself on the east side of Houston and you’re chasing bold spirits, cold beer, and damn good food—Giant Texas Distillers is your spot. We had the chance to sit down with Distiller Julian, and let me tell you, the man knows how to craft a whiskey that hits with Texas heat and Southern soul. Every pour had character—from their straight bourbon to their special barrel-finished expressions. Julian’s passion and precision are in every drop. Mike Crosby, the marketing manager, is the kind of guy who makes you feel like you’ve been part of the Giant Texas family for years. He’s the perfect ambassador for the brand—genuine, knowledgeable, and just flat-out fun to hang with. The food? 🔥 Absolutely delicious. And the beer? Cold and crafted with care. The vibe at Giant Texas is equal parts industrial grit and Texas hospitality. It’s a one-stop shop for whiskey lovers, foodies, and anyone who appreciates a great local hangout. Giant Texas isn’t just a distillery—it’s an experience. From the still to the table, this place delivers. Huge thanks to Julian, Mike, and the whole team for the hospitality. We’ll be back, and we’ll be bringing friends. Cheers from The Whiskey Trip!
