If you’re looking for a pretentious and uppity place, Bastion is not for you. However, if you’re looking for excellent service and a friendly conversation at a neighborhood bar, you’ve found your home. Hidden at the end of Houston Station, Bastion is a perfect spot for a cold drink after work or a cocktail late at night. Playing tribute to the neighborhood’s Civil War history, the word ‘bastion’ is self-defined as “a place or system in which something (such as an old fashioned idea) continues to survive.” When you’re there, ask about their kitchen!
