Montrose Wall Murals To Check Out

Montrose Coffee Shops

Houston’s art scene is dynamic. And I’m not just talking about the local artists here or the actual Museum District (which is walking distance from me at Encore Montrose) boasting some of the best museums in the nation.

If you’ve been on Instagram at all in recent years, you know there are wall murals abounding in every corner of Houston, and Montrose is no different.

Here are some of my personal favorite Montrose murals to check out:

• Pictured above is The “Paint Drip Wall,” which is one of the most well known and fun walls in all of Houston, located at Biscuit Home (1435 Westheimer). This is right in the midst of all that Westheimer/Montrose has to offer so grab a coffee or spend a few lovely hours at brunch and then hit up this wall on a sunny day and you’ve got yourself a heavily liked Instagram pic!
• Of course we can’t skip the mural that screams Montrose, located at Revelry on
  Richmond (1613 Richmond Ave), less than a mile from our amazing Montrose apartments. Revelry also has a fun little bar vibe and above average bar food – it’s been a favorite of mine for years and also makes a good spot to watch the game.
• The Rose wall, outside of STRETCH Studio in Montrose (2205 Montrose). Though I’ve never been to STRETCH, the concept and idea fascinates me, so I guess I should probably try that spot out (and then maybe snap a selfie in my favorite workout apparel afterwards for proof that I actually did it).
• Check out this fun and colorful graffiti wall, in the parking lot of Pavement Clothing

  (1657 Westheimer). I didn’t know this wall existed, until I saw my friend Carrie post about it (I’ve linked her entire Houston mural guide below, it’s a must-see).

Also, be sure to check out my friend Carrie’s comprehensive Houston mural guide, which she keeps up-to-date and takes the most adorable and glamorous pictures. Even if you’re not a blogger, I promise a fun way to spend a beautiful afternoon in Houston is grabbing your bestie and hitting up a bunch of these murals for some photos. It’s a great way to learn the city or revisit some of your favorite neighborhoods.

This blog post is part of a sponsored series with Encore Montrose, where I share first-hand accounts of what I love about living at this luxury Montrose apartment as well as my favorite things in the neighborhood, like these Montrose coffee shops.

If you’re looking for a new Montrose apartment, add Encore Montrose to your list and mention my name (Jayme or The Blonde Side) for an extra little incentive (plus it helps me). Check out the A7 (1 bed, 1 bath) and B4 (2 bed, 2 bath) floor plans, which have the best deals right now.
