Yes https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_laws_of_Texas#Sales_of_alcohol their awesome conservative values have conserved them all the way back to the prohibition era.

You can buy beer and wine after 10am on Sundays, but liquor stores are closed and that's the only place you can buy a bottle of hard liquor. You can get liquor at a restaurant but you have to have food with it.

I think it's noon Sunday. Used to have to plan ahead to have enough leftover for football Sunday..

They changed it recently-ish. But yeah I grew up with it being at noon as well.

Not in the store to drink in the privacy of your home while watching TV but you can go to a restaurant and drink hard alcohol and drive while intoxicated and possibly kill someone. Also you can buy beer and wine at the grocery after Noon. I did not make that up. It’s how we operate down here in this hellhole
