Meet Elizabeth Quiroz | Owner of The Drin-king Spot

We had the good fortune of connecting with Elizabeth Quiroz and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Elizabeth, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
I saw myself reaching the big 50, and that’s when I realized that it was time to begin the new beginning. I would like to retire from my everyday job to my own business. Most people retire and they just don’t know what to do afterwards. I thought about all of the opportunities and Opening our own business was the best thing for my husband and I. The Drin-king Spot is what makes us happy and allows us to do what we like (making people smile).

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
From Monday to Friday I am an Executive assistant for a Hospital, During the weekend I am promoting and running my own business “The drinking Spot” socializing with customers, Making Fabulous Michiladas, and Mangonada drinks but the best part is making people happy.
I am personable with my customer and able to connect with each and one of them, what excides me the most and makes me proud is when I see a returning costumer who tells me that they are here just for tone of my FUN drinks!

Reaching this point in my career was not easy but with lots of hard work, building and maintain relationship and continuing support from my husband, I am working towards my dream of being at the Drinking Spot full time.

Funny that you asked I learned that you can do anything that you set your mind too, mine was getting that TABC license. This process took extensive research, through that I learn that I was able to do it on my own for a significant lower price just took a fewer more months.

My passion is to make people happy! I want them to know that when you stop by the Drinking Spot you will not only get a drink but a place with a welcoming environment and a great Town to shop.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Here are my favorite Lake Conroe, Old Town spring, Tomball town, Galveston, Khema, lots of great history and for a great beer Thistle Draft house, Tapped, Fortress Beer works in spring, loose caboose, wunsche bros café Saloon Jax Burgers, for Sea food Drunken oysters, for Mexican food Chilas, prohibition Texas

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My sister and her husband, they have always been an inspiration to me their success in life has always been inspiring, she has always encourage me to open my own business and to reach for the stars, Definitely my husband who has all ways supports me and has been by my side for 30 years, with my 2 amazing daughter Ashley with her amazing creative talent and Nicole with the excellent social media skills, couldn’t be where am at without them.
