More Than a Restaurant—A Place for Family

At El Chaparro Mexican Bar & Grill, family is at the heart of everything we do. Whether you're gathering for a weeknight dinner, celebrating a special occasion, or simply sharing a meal with the people you love most, we're honored to be part of those moments.

For years, families throughout Tomball, Spring, and The Woodlands have made El Chaparro their place to connect over authentic Mexican food, warm hospitality, and memories that last long after the meal is over.

From our family to yours, we invite you to pull up a chair, enjoy your favorite dishes, and feel right at home.

  • Tomball – Just south of The Woodlands and the Village of Creekside Park.
  • Spring – At the intersection of Kuykendahl Road and Gosling Road.
  • The Woodlands – Alden Bridge Shopping Center, Kuykendahl Road at Alden Bridge Drive.
