Our chair and umbrella set-up.
Jenny C.

I took my mom on a short trip to Port Aransas. We were only going to be there for one full day and I wondered if there was a service that could provide chairs and an umbrella for some shelter and there were 2 to choose from. One closed for the season right before we were to arrive. Fortunately, Bron's Backyard was still renting. The first interaction was that I reserved the wrong day. I called to correct it and they were so happy to change it. On the day that we went to the beach, they texted a picture and let us know that our spot was ready when we were. It was perfect! Right next to the ocean and felt like it was an area just for us, out of the way. Sean came by to see if we needed anything and was able to sell us a beach permit so that we didn't get a ticket for parking on the beach! He was so nice. We spent the day there and just needed to text him that we were done. I can't recommend this place for this service enough. My mom and I had such a great day! Thank you!

This is a very eclectic establishment in the fact that it is a live music joint serving margaritas with some fire pits, swinging chairs, and add a little chaos and you get the picture. Seems to be a place where the tourists and locals come to hear a decent cover band and mingle. They also bring their children (and a dog or two) which are usually running about the place. There is a lot of seating, but the place fills up pretty quickly, and only half of it is covered in case it rains. As for the cons, if you're new here, you'll notice they do not have any menus. Ordering drinks can be quite chaotic and they do not have any table service. They do have some decent margaritas and daiquiris from the $7 to $12 range, but their craft beer menu is very lacking. As for the craft beer, you get a can of Karbach for $4.75 with no glass and nothing on draft. One thing that's important to know is that they do not have a liquor license as of this writing, but supposedly in May 2023, they will which should be a game changer. Their mixed drinks and margaritas are made with wine-based spirits that are around 20% Alc. Food here is lacking with no menu, but they did have a crawfish boil the night we were here. If you need to use the bathroom, the facilities are basically upscale Porta potty's. They have a ping-pong table, and a cornhole area, and even a hatchet throwing cage; 3 throws for $5 (rented for a period of time). If you're looking for an establishment sporting a party vibe, this would be a good local spot to check out. Photos below add more to the story.

The Golf Cart we rented

Live music was awesome!! Many games to keep entertained with; the fried mushrooms were yummy! The corn dogs were over cooked (for me) No liquor, only wine based drink's. They have beer. We rented a golf cart.... Oof the steering & alignment was rough and loose and would wander! Probably needs some suspension parts replaced as well... it was some rough riding. But, everyone was very nice, friendly staff! Overall pretty cool average service all around. Ps my friends loved the corn dogs... games they had; corn hole, ping pong, ring & hook game, lots of swing seating, set up was nice.

Cornhole, covered and uncovered sitting areas.

Always love coming here when in vacation. Been here every year for the past 5-6 years. Love karaoke night, always a lot of fun and the DJ does a great job. Love that my kids can come and just be kids and play around. So much for them to do, hula hoop, corn hole, ping pong, snow ones. Great drinks and the bartenders are awesome. This is a must whenever we are in town. Wish the video gaming area was still up like before the remodel but maybe it caused a lot of problems with the kids. But still love this place.

Drink menu at the bar
Jessica L.

Fun place with a great atmosphere! Swings, corn hole, ping pong, and several other games plus a bar and a togo drink window make this place so fun! There is a small food menu for those who also want to come and eat. I had the burger with fries, onion rings, and the cheese curds and all were delicious! The burger was one of the best I've had in a while! The kitchen does close at around 8:30pm though so don't wait too late to order something! Can't wait to go back next time I'm in Port Aransas

Snow cones on the patio

Fun atmosphere, welcoming for the whole family. The kids love all the games and the live music is great! All the food and drinks we have had were good. We stop here every time we are in town.

There's Caleb Navarro

Service isn't bad, it's just the food. Tastes horrible. Great games and they had a scooter.

Great bar/restaurant- we sat at the patio enjoying the weather. The food took a while to arrive…read moreprobably because they were full And busy, thankfully there was a play area To keep our daughter busy. Wife ordered a drink (can't remember the name) and I ordered a pina colada, strangely they both tasted exactly the same. Other than that the food was great. Loved my smash burger with bacon and extra patty added Will come back here if we visit port Aransas again

After searching for what felt like forever to find a highly recommended spot -- even Port A Escapes…read morelisted this place as a must‑try -- we decided to give it a shot. I've traveled all over the world and up and down the U.S. coastline, and I understand beach‑town dining can be hit or miss. But this experience left us genuinely confused about the glowing reviews. We walked into a tiny establishment where the bar was fully staffed and drinks were flowing, yet we couldn't even get served food. Alcohol seemed ready to go, but the kitchen was moving at a pace that made no sense. We were told food would take over an hour. For a place this small, that's baffling. It made me wonder if the rave reviews were written through "vacation goggles" -- sunburned, tired, or a few drinks in -- because from our sober perspective, nothing about the service or setup matched the hype. Maybe the "excellent" part of the name refers strictly to the bar, because the grill definitely felt off‑duty. We ended up leaving without ever getting food. Not the experience we were hoping for.
