Still good. Still fun. Still the best bourbon selection in Rockport…read more Since I'm not local, dare I say North Padre? I always order an Old Fashioned first but find their version too sweet. But I'm always hopeful. My second is typically something on a big cube. Pours are good. Service is friendly. The night we were there, karaoke was in play. As one might expect, some better than others. Overall, a good night as expected. Then we bounced over to Rock Bottom for live music.

Terrible experience from start to finish…read more We came in after a long day of fishing and chose this place because it's right on the harbor--should have been the perfect, convenient stop. Unfortunately, that's where the positives end. There were plenty of open tables, so we sat at one that had just been cleaned. We waited nearly 20 minutes while multiple waitresses walked by without ever acknowledging us. Eventually, one said she'd find someone to help us, and a young server finally came to take our drink order. It took about 10 minutes to get our drinks, another 15 minutes just to receive chips and queso, and over an hour for our food to arrive. We ordered simple items--nachos, quesadillas, and two burgers--nothing that should have taken that long. To make matters worse, they ran out of sweet tea, so we were stuck drinking water while waiting for more to be made. About 20 minutes later, we watched them take the tea container next door to finally prepare it. The food itself was just average bar food at best--not worth the wait. On top of that, there were people smoking inside the restaurant, which made the experience even more unpleasant. Despite being right on the harbor, they didn't even open the garage doors to let a breeze flow through, which would have made a big difference. To top it all off, when the bill came, it was incorrect. When splitting the checks, items were put on the wrong tickets, creating even more frustration at the end of an already disappointing meal. We will not be back.

Generous sizes in kids meals, amazing fish blackened and grilled and awesome sides. Burgers were great, Fisherman's Platter was so good, Fish of the day with white sauce was excellent. We left saying we'll come back next time. Looking for a place for dinner? Stop scrolling and visit Coasters.

I think our waitress' name was Anna. She was great. It's the little things like bringing a glass of ice along with my tea because it was fresh brewed and still warm. I hadn't asked for that. She just did it. She explained the specials and ultimately convinced us to change our minds and go with them. Great choice. Friendly and professional. The food was the best we have ever had there. I had the chicken fried chicken and my wife had the chicken fried steak. These aren't the typical frozen patties you find in some restaurants. These were choice, juicy, excellently prepared and full of flavor. Mine was the best chicken fried chicken I have had in a long time. We will come back more often if this is what we can now expect. Highly recommend.

Once inside, I noticed sidewalks along the perimeter for my wheelchair, bonus points for that. Unfortunately, the sidewalks leading to the ordering area were completely blocked by giant advertising sandwich boards. Obstacle course aside, the bartender was friendly and incredibly kind, even offered us koozies and blankets, which was a big win since it was pretty chilly out. The setup is fun and casual with cheerful Christmas lighting. Near the bar there are TV's and standard-height tables on a large concrete area. There was a nice little crowd and every one of the tables on the patio were taken. Beyond that is more gravel with Adirondack chairs, a big raised stage, and picnic tables on the other side. I really enjoyed the live country band and would have loved to stay, but it was too cold. Adding some patio heaters would make it easier to stay longer in the winter. Overall, Sip Yard is a really fun venue with a side of adventure. I'll give 5 stars and will definitely be back, hopefully with a couple fewer hurdles and better weather next time.

Definitely time for an update. Long story short, Go!…read more Shortys was opened in 1946 and is the oldest bar on the island. But those are just basic dry facts and the history of Shortys is far from basic and dry. Most recently,Shortys survived yet another drenching by a hurricane. This one was one of the worst in Texas history. Somehow,this little wooden structure survived when cement ones down the street were totaled. Somehow,the person that owned the ground below Shortys decided not to renew the lease. Believe me when I say, it was controversial on the island, is an understatement. So,the owner did the right thing. Found another spot and moved the building there After months of closure,repair,add on etc. Shortys next life began. This is my first trip down since it reopened so I just had to go. Walking in,you just can't believe it's exactly the same after surviving a hurricane and being moved. Wow! The old original floor boards are there as proof and a constant reminder to never loose faith and where there's a will there's a way Definite Big GO!
