Bay Area Brewing Company is a small, cozy property with their delicious brewed beer. We enjoyed their Peach Better Have My Mango. Aside from being unique, refreshing and delicious, what a great, fun name! And that's the whole vibe with super kind staff, like Selena, and a yummy pretzel. They have a cool, shady backyard area with a stage, playground for the kids, and a HUGE rooster strolling around. And, the perfect atmosphere for our favorite guys, Boo and Poo. They are originally from Louisiana and play fun zydeco tunes, shared with great, fun chatter. They have a very strong presence in this area, with a loyal, large following . It was a great time and I strongly recommend the Brewery and the guys. I look forward to returning very soon. Truly, Les bons temps (the good times)!

The railroad sauce is perfect for the shrimp and the onion rings. The bar needs a better liquor line up but the drinks are acceptable.

Nice place to eat. Try it.

A long time ago I remembered brewers from the now defunct "Lorelei Brewing Company", an excellent…read morebrewery suggested me to check out the "Rebel Toad Brewing." The thing is that they have interesting hours, which made it hard for me to go visit. And my only way of trying their beers has been exclusively, at the bar inside the Hilton Double Tree Hotel. Enter having Valentine's Day on a Friday, which opened up the possibility to finally visit it. One thing about downtown Corpus Christi is that it is small and therefore absolutely no parking is available. Making going to Rebel Toad a bit precarious. We were able to secure a spot in the front before it opened at 3 pm. Having passed by it before I thought it was much bigger but it is small inside. There are a couple of high tables and chairs, accompanied by counter seating. I believe the owners are a couple and they were very friendly. The taplist is seven-ish beers deep. Some places are weary about giving samples. They offered some with recommendations. But me, I opted for a flight. Their beers are good. I did enjoy their "Liquid Haze IPA" but I think it's laid-back vibe close to the beach is what I ultimately appreciated. In addition a really killer playlist of the 80's was in the background. Any place that plays "Depeche Mode" will get my patronage, all day. The parking situation leaves a little to be desired. And I think not having food or at least nearby options might be an issue for some. But not for me. I probably will come back here again. But I'd like to visit here at night. In my city of San Antonio the craft beer scene is a bit inundated at the moment. In my opinion the Corpus Christi craft beer scene is in its infancy and might remain there for awhile. Rebel Toad Brewing can only help build that community. Now if I can only get rid of my fear of the ocean caused by seeing "Jaws." Then again the city is so laid-back back, I'll probably run into him here. And the 1st round will be on him.

The reviews had us feeling a little worried but we decided to try this establishment anyways…read morebecause it looked too good not to. In the end we're appalled that there were such bad reviews. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by their brewery and a chalkboard with their current drinks on tap! We were seated immediately and pleased with the ambiance off the bat. I got the cerveza de la flor and my S/O got the sparkling kiss. I was impressed by the beer and she was very happy with her drink! We started with the ceviche fusion and we were skeptical at first. It is delicious on its own however the kitchen did not salt or pepper it seemingly at all. So in order to truly enjoy it you must be bold and salt/pepper it yourself. It brought the ceviche to life and made everything pop. Very good choice for an appetizer. For our main dishes I she got the Bang-Bang shrimp pasta. You are greeted with a half pound of popcorn shrimp covered in a delectable spicy sauce that pairs so nicely with the pasta. It is very filling so you will have leftovers (unless you've eaten nothing all day of course). I got the Crawfish Étoufée and I was very pleased. It came with 2 sides (broccoli slaw and maque choux) and both were good pairings. The broccoli slaw was tasty and I was very happy with how sweet and savory it was. The maque choux paired amazingly with the étouffée. So well in fact that I mixed the 2 dishes. There is so much value in what you get and we went home with full bellies and plenty of leftovers for the next day! We highly recommend Railroad Brewery!
