Founded as one of Houston’s first vegetarian-friendly restaurants in 1972, the Hobbit Cafe is still serving up veggie-packed eats, massive burgers, and fresh dishes like gazpacho, tropical chicken salad and mezze platters in a quirky old house dedicated to the work of J.R.R. Tolkien. Over the years the Hobbit has also gained a reputation for its wide selection of craft beers. Not a drinker? Try a fruit-packed smoothie instead.

A taste of Middle Earth, in the middle of the Bayou City. The nerdiest gem in the neighborhood. The restaurant plays host to classically Tex-Mex cuisine, with a Tolkienian twist.

Tolkien-themed quaint + cute old-school hippie restaurant. Be prepared for uneven floors, sprouts, and huge portions. Have some mead!
