The Goose's Acre Bistro & Irish Pub

Tried this place based on the recommendation of a colleague. It's a small little place with a cool patio. The atmosphere is fantastic here. The food is overpriced, but decent. I think you're just paying for the scenery and location. The food was good, but not great. The deviled eggs were said to be the best around. They were definitely different. They put fried chicken on top of them. Weird but good. I received friendly service, but the server was also slow to come around. I was never offered a refill. Definitely a place worth coming to to try out. I understand they do karaoke on Thursday nights.

Stopped here for a late lunch early dinner. They have outdoor seating that faces the waterway walk. The menu had many options. We started with an appetizer of ahí poke nachos. Nicely done with a bite to it. I had the Atlantic salmon with roasted potatoes and garlic vegetables. It was tasty - the salmon was just a smooch too cooked for me but delicious. My husband had the tuna steak - he said it was quite good. Our server was excellent and we appreciated her attentiveness.

We’ve been coming here and enjoying it for years. Atmosphere is really fun, the service is always great, and the food is good. The portion size on the salmon is a little skimpy, but it is quite tasty.

I had the pleasure of dining at The Goose’s Acre in The Woodlands recently, and I just have to share—what a gem. From start to finish, it was one of the most satisfying meals and evenings I’ve had in a long time. Ambiance & Setting As soon as I walked through, I was struck by how warm and welcoming the place felt. The decor is charmingly authentic—there’s real character in the wooden bars, the artwork, the way it feels like a pub with soul, not just another restaurant. The view of the Waterway from the outdoor patio adds such a lovely touch, especially at golden hour. Dining outdoors while cool breezes roll off the water made everything feel more relaxed and enjoyable. Service Top-notch in every respect. Our server Blake was friendly, attentive, and clearly proud of the place. Small things stood out—the way they checked in to make sure our drinks stayed full, how they guided us patiently through the menu—even when we asked a lot of questions. It didn’t feel like just a transaction, but like they genuinely cared that we had a great time. Food & Drinks This is where they really shine. I tried the their signature salad —fresh and amazing and it hit all the right notes. Another standout was their chicken wings; there’s something comforting about the rich flavors, hearty portions, and perfect balance of ingredients. For drinks, they’ve got a solid selection. I had a cocktail that was well-crafted (not too sweet, not too heavy) and paired perfectly with the food. Brunch is also a winner—brunch menu items plus bottomless mimosas make it a treat. Value & Overall Feel Portions are generous but not excessive, prices are reasonable given the quality, location, and vibe. If you’re looking for a place for a date night, gathering with friends, or a relaxing weekend lunch, The Goose’s Acre hits a sweet spot. It feels upscale without being pretentious, comfortable yet polished. What I’ll Remember Most The genuine Irish pub feel, transplanted beautifully into The Woodlands. The combination of great food, great service, and a setting that feels both special and welcoming. Overall, The Goose’s Acre exceeded my expectations. I'll absolutely be back, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone wanting a memorable meal. If you go, I’d say don’t miss the salad or their chicken wings —and leave some room for dessert.

Absolutely love this place. Came here twice. Tried the fried chicken and shepard's pie and they were delicious. The atmosphere and the view from the outdoor seating is definitely a plus. 100% recommend.
