    Shrimp Cocktail
    Travis D.

    This place has a casual, laid back vibe. Chris was attentive and professional. The food is top rate and comes in a great variety. Try the Mexican Shrimp Cocktail, it's delicious!!

    Cheap Happy Hour drinks. Yummy Shrimp Cocktail. Liked all cucumbers, jalapeños and avocados that came with it. Service was quick. We were one of the few customers at the time so it was quiet. I'm sure it would be more lively when it's crowded

    Happened to be in El Paso for a couple hours before flying out. One of the guys had been here before and said it was well worth the detour. We were the first customers when they opened at 11. This place is super cool. Love the decor and bombers. The inside is very nice the bartender was right on his game. He got our beers ordered and they were perfectly cold. I ordered a 1/2 dozen raw oysters and the fish and chips. He brought my oysters out very quickly. They were AWESOME ! The best part was the horseradish had a great kick too! The oysters smelled and tasted fresh. Extra stars for this. Then the fish and chips were just as good. Great crisp on the fish and tasted great. The fries were crispy and nothing special but they were good. Up to the very last one. Oysters, two beers and fish & chips - all under $40. Can't beat their prices. Next time I even drive through El Paso - I'll be stopping in.

    Great happy hour from 11-7 including some unique bombers and oyster and shrimp shooters. Chicken sandwich was solid! I wasn't a huge fan of the crawfish, they tasted like they were frozen and then dethawed which makes sense being we are in a desert. The sauce was also meh. Nice bartender and service was really good. Lots of TVs too

    First time, very happy. Went with a buddy and got beers, food and shots. Prices were great service was excellent, food was good. Low expectations, high results. x2 Fish & Chips Dozen half-shell oysters 1lb cold peel and eat shrimp It paired well with the Estrella cervesa lager We managed to eat it all. Happy about the prices!! I put malt vinegar on the fish & chips and Tabasco on nearly everything. Can't wait to come back.

    Not bad at all. The service was great!! David was our bartender that day and his attitude was amazeballs...Knows his music!! The bar is downtown somewhere on the corner where it bridges the fancy downtown and all the cool shops ( if you know then you know). I've been here twice. The first time it was a stop for the hash run and the second time because we were shopping downtown. I heard the food was good but I got tacos before we stopped there. I might have to try the oysters next time. It seems like there's a story behind the name. They're literally right across from the Paseo Del Norte. The sign on the wall said live music during the weekends. Give them a try and let me know if I need to go back for the oysters or stick to the drinks and that cool-looking bar.

    Drinks - YES! Food - NO! Oh my goodness...if you're called the Oyster Pub then one should order Oysters right? WRONG. I've never tasted such fishy oysters. I shouldn't have continued eating them, but I didn't want to be a pain. I did let my waitress know though. The Oysters were not good. At all. Fishy, Fishy, Fishy...like strong fishy...ick. And if you think "Well that's what Oysters are supposed to taste like" WRONG. There should never be a fishy flavor - that means it's not fresh and running on the "old" side. We ordered shrimp tacos. Tiny. Bland. You can finish them in 2 bites, but they are cheap. Now drinks - I think this place is definitely better for drinks. The drink deals are pretty good and you get a lot for what you pay for. With all that said... COME HERE FOR THE DRINKS! and stay away from the food lol

    Shrimp sandwich

    Fast service and the sandwiches are good and the fries are crispy like they should be!

    Tito's, soda, and lime please.

    I stayed at the DoubleTree and asked an employee at the front desk for a recommendation, and he said go here. It was pretty close the hotel, and getting here wasn't to bad, put the area is under construction, so I really couldn't see it . I parked on a side street, and got here about 9, on a Monday night. There were about 8 others here, with 4 playing darts, and a few at the bar with me. They had Oysters on special that night, so I ordered a half dozen, a nice Tito's, sat back and relaxed. Even thought they were not real busy, this place has a great atmosphere, and the next time I come back to El Paso, I will be back.

    The oysters were delicious! Absolutely will be back. Great spot to watch the game or pregame! The wings were delicious as were the fries and beer.

    I was realllly excited when I saw this place--they had me at oyster pub. The music was jamming from the outside. But I was soon disappointed. I really wanted and oyster shooter(I normally get these on the coast Louisiana, Alabama, Florida) I figured hey I'm only one state over should be right.. I was wrong. The oyster shooter here came with beer. I asked to change it out for vodka, they told me there would an up charge, I assumed the up charge was the totals price --nope it was $6 for the vodka I chose and another $2 for the oyster shot. I should have known the pricing was too good to be true. The oyster shot was interesting -- the cocktail sauce tasted more like hot sauce and the oysters were really crunchy! I've never had crunchy oysters. On top of that when I went to cash out the machines where down, they didn't know when they would be back up and they expected patrons to wait . I think this spot could be a really great place at night for a good time, my day time experiences as just a miss.

    Funny story: so, a guy walks into this bar because he reads some rather stellar reviews via Yelp on…read morethis place, right? Only he thinks to himself, "Self, I should really go check this place out; if, for nothing else, than for their wings and fries. And pool." Well, 2 out of 3 of those things ended up checking out. And I also managed to try out even more at this contemporary bar (albeit mostly food). However, the best way to do each and every item justice would be to rate each individually and accordingly. Since Brew's menu both impressed and overwhelmed me in choices all at once, I decided to do a sampling of sorts. So the wife and I proceeded to order potato skins, buffalo wings, a 7 inch cheese pizza and fries. The rating scheme ranks as follows.. I would give the potato skins a 6 out of 10, the wings a 9 out of 10, the fries a solid 10, and the pizza a 5 out of 10. Now that I've got the boring number stats out of the way, onto the part you guys care about; how I came up with such diverse ratings. First off, the potato skins immediately reminded me of the ones I had at Hudson's. Decent enough, but they could have used a touch of salt. Also, these particular skins were inexplicably served with a side of ranch dressing as opposed to sour cream. I realize that some folks believe ranch goes with EVERYTHING, but...I don't get it. Whatever. Moving on.. Second, the pizza. Look, I gotta be as generously grateful as possible that this pizza didn't completely tank my expectations. But...*sigh*...what is the best way to put this? Brew's so-called "brick oven pizza" is like what school cafeteria pizza would taste like IF the school cooks actually gave a crap about making half-way edible pizza. If you don't understand that, then let's just say...it didn't suck by any means. It just wasn't anything close to brick oven style or even being remotely epic. Clearly, pizza isn't this bar's specialty. Third, their wings. Sweet mother of mercy! These bad boys have some true potential. Again, whilst ostensibly being served with ranch, I requested some blue cheese instead and let's just say...Heaven ropes parted. Their fries are phenomenally perfect! I only wish I had noticed they also serve fish n' chips before ordering what I ordered. Ah well. Next time. Unfortunately, we didn't shoot any pool due to the fact that they harbor one lonely pool table placed inconveniently inside another room which looks like a third dining room of sorts. One caveat I must toss out there: this place is loud. Like...hella loud! Though, to be fair, part of that has to do with their in-built digital Jukebox; which can conveniently be controlled by a remote app called "TouchTunes". Also, their free WiFi is surprisingly fast, considering how crowded this place can get on a Friday night. Check it out! I'm not completely sure what menu item I'll sample next. But I DO know this place will be a definite revisit for date night. BSPE is worthy of 4 spicy buffalo wings covered in chunky blue cheese out of 5.

    I caught them on their second night after reopening. I'm definitely glad I did. I had almost…read moreforgotten what a great venue this is to grab a drink and a bite and just relax. They're practicing social distancing. The staff are wearing gloves and masks. Come out and support a great business! While you're there, try the Korean steak tacos! Thanks Lisa!
