EJ’s

 

Missouri City doesn’t know what hit it. A dope-ass sports bar right off of Cartwright and 1092 complete with more than eight screens and a hot DJ every night. This bar is tucked in the corner next to the Shell gas station and is a hole in the wall in the best sense of the phrase. If you come on Mondays, it’s Ladies Monday Martini’s where the drinks are only $4 all night. If you have a taste for wings it’s .50 wing Wednesdays, and don’t forget about Grown Folk Fridays where teachers, accountants, waste management specialists, hell anybody paying bills can go and enjoy sounds from the O’Jays and Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes. Don’t fear though, this isn’t just your mom’s favorite hangout. DJ Good Grief is just one of the special attractions. If you come in on a good night there’s all you can eat crawfish for $20, and people playing dominoes until 2 a.m. Friday through Saturday bring out the home folk from the Mo. Dress to enjoy yourself, but no baseball caps indoors. There’s plenty of parking for biker crews that come through EJ’s and occasionally there are motorcycle shows outside, but if you arrive in a vehicle with doors parking is limited after midnight. No cover ever and plenty of security, not that it’s needed. The crowd is relaxed and just looking for a drama free night. The owners, Enos Cabell and Jarrod Oliver, wanted to make sure there wasn’t a bad seat in the house and they got it right.
