Chris was so very good at communicating with me. The room was very clean. Plenty of hot water. Every detail was thought of; shower gel, shampoo, ear plugs, small bottle of water and chocolates. Very good air condition for an older house. Very quiet, we didn't hear any other guest. Bed was very comfortable. I can't wait to come back and stay again. Highly recommend!

The Astin Mansion seriously could not have done a better job for our wedding (5/17/14). Throughout…read morethe entire planning process they were attentive, had great ideas, and they never once caused us ANY stress or grief. Stephanie took over the main coordination for our wedding and she did a stellar job. She always made sure information was passed quickly and helped make our day incredibly special. From pinning boutonnières to wrangling rouge flower girls, she was amazing. We served caesar salad, lasagna, green beans, and bread. I have to be honest, we didn't do a taste sampling (although it was offered to us), and I wasn't expecting anything great. However, when we finally got the eat the meal on our wedding day, it was phenomenal. I truly believe it was the best lasagna I have ever eaten (don't tell my mom that!). It was easily my favorite part of the meal. My very close second favorite part of the meal was the salad. MMM! Fresh, and just an overall tasty dish. The Astin also supplied our cakes. In our package we didn't get to choose anything that had to do with the cakes (which may be a negative for some people, but we were actually pretty glad it was done for us). The cakes were delicious. Soft cake and creamy icing on the brides cake and grooms cake. Chris, the florist, did a great job with all of the arrangements, too. I had a bouquet of blue hydrangeas for a 4 o'clock wedding. I got my bouquet at 3 o'clock and even in the harsh sun, they never wilted. Around 5 pm, I stuck them in some water and they were still beautiful when we left for our honeymoon the next day. Overall, if we had to do it again, we would choose the Astin every time.

The building sits well off of the main road, giving it a private feel. It is a relaxed venue surrounded by trees and facing a pond (with a fountain). Plenty of parking.

Steve Porter bent over backwards to make sure that everything was perfect for us. This is a great venue in a great location at a great price.

I remember having my Senior prom, and my graduation party in the outdoor pavilion here back in??? I have had many dancing nights here, some of them intoxicating weddings, quinceaneras, JL's Bargin Blitz, and etc.. Brazos Center was the place rent for events big or small. Recently I went to my cousin's quinceanera at the Brazos Center. I was surprised to see that the place is as I remember it; in tact and nice. A little out of date, but it was not run down. The ball room area is perfect for that time when the DJ plays some MJ and all the older people like me get on the dance floor to embarrass or hurt themselves. The Brazos Center has 4 different assembly rooms 1 with a stage perfect weddings or parties. It also has 3 other rooms available for meetings and lecture type events. Whatever the occasion The Brazos Center has a room for it. I recommend the Brazos Center for you events. I gave The Brazos Center five 5 stars; book your event today.

I want to give a full-throated endorsement of this business, especially as a Downtown Bryan…read moreresident, yet I have serious reservations. 1.) This historic venue deserves better historic interior decor. I recognize the current owners didn't make the renovations to the space, but as a single screen venue...it should feel special, distinct and one-of-a-kind experience from front door to lobby to theatre. It doesn't. 2.) The online website and programming of what's on screen is not extra special. First run films are better left to the cineplexes. This space would suit a well-curated art house, classic cinema, and rarely seen films for a large swath of audiences in the Brazos Valley. I live right around the corner and the 50th Anniversary screening of Bruce Lee's Enter the Dragon was the first film since their launch (in current iteration)...it was fun to experience on a large screen. 3.) What is unclear from the online presence is that food can be served to your seat. I looked extensively in the sight but this was not evident to me until we arrived. The menu is very pedestrian, burgers, greasy fries and more fried things, and standard salads. Again, nothing special or unique. 4.). Why are tickets for future screenings unavailable since they are already advertised? Also, there was a lot of noise in the lobby during the film and the house lights did not come up after the film concluded. I WANT to support a local one-screen experience Downtown, but how I miss the reopening days of this place when it was diversely curated and a human being sat in the ticket booth to welcome you into the Experience of The Queen. Her uniqueness is not being capitalized upon, regrettably.

We had paid in full by March '23. By the beginning of May we had not heard from anyone from The Barn. The bartender had forgotten our reservation and Stephanie had never called us in the months leading up to the wedding. We paid $4250 for our 6 hr reception AND we had to clean up afterwards! Stephanie yelled at me after I asked her what kind of a sh&t show was going on! She does not answer her phone and provided zero direction in our planning process. It took nearly 2 months after our wedding to receive our deposit and overpayment because it got "lost in the mail". Look elsewhere, brides. Much better deals and less heartburn at other venues!
