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)!

They had some reasonable music playing. Overall pricey experience for not a great meal. Famous nachos smoked turkey was Ratio of chips to everything else was probably 90% chips to 10% everything else for $16 .... the picture I attached makes it look very good on presentation, but all the toppings are on the top and there is tons of chips underneath those toppings.

For starters, their menu was extremely difficult to follow, sides are not listed making it a challenge to put your dinner thoughts together (nothing like website.) I Ordered an onion ring appetizer for the table, I do expect see a little grease on onion rings BUT not so much grease that it literally took handfuls of napkins to strain all the grease. So we decided what about a salad? When it came, my wife immediately saw a long black hair on the top it, draped over the side of the salad bowl. Our meal came and we all were expecting it to be like the website photos but it was NOT! It was cold and greasy, fish had lots of bones, broccoli Coleslaw was very sweet and warm...I am terribly embarrassed that I took my mom to this place! We felt really sorry for the pleasant young lady that waited on us, she was great and did tip her well (she's not to blame for the poorly prepared and food). I thought maybe it was an off night? But every single thing that came out was horrible unfortunately. We surely will not travel all the way here again. Hope your experience was better than ours!

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. This visit, there was no bar service as the liquor license is being renewed. Service is prompt and friendly. The ambiance is nice, rustic and quaint but some of the tables need a new finish. 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.

We made it out on a nice overcast day so it was not terribly hot outside. I think my favorite was Lovers on the Surf which was a cherry chocolate vibe. It was like drinking a Valentine.

I looked over the menu here beforehand and it seemed to have exactly what I was looking for. The place was nice and clean inside. I can't remember our waiter's name, but he did a great job. Drinks stayed full, and the kitchen had the appetizers and entrees coming out with perfect timing. Nothing felt rushed and we weren't sitting around waiting either. We started with the shrimp quesadillas. They were well filled and had great flavor. My wife tried a couple of different cocktails that I can't remember the names of. I know her second one had elderflower in it, and she really enjoyed both. I stuck with their Strawberry Blonde beer throughout the night. The strawberry flavor was a little stronger than I expected, but apparently not strong enough to stop me from having three of them. My wife ordered the crawfish étouffée, which she enjoyed and completely finished. I went with the Snapper Pontchartrain, and it was incredible. I highly recommend this dish. I had the hobo potatoes and broccoli slaw for my sides. The hobo potatoes weren't quite what I expected, but they were fine. That broccoli slaw, though, was delicious. I definitely recommend giving this place a try. Solid service, tasty food, and I always appreciate a local spot brewing its own beer. Support local, y'all.

The inside is clean and inviting. They are very welcome to dogs and support animal welfare organizations it looks like! We of course had to have two flights - one beer, one wine. I can't completely recall my order - the wines I remember trying were blackberry, raspberry, watermelon, and the "muscles and tattoos(?)." Every single one was amazing. I personally adored the blackberry, and my partner - who usually is not a huge wine fan at all - adored the watermelon wine. My palate isn't really built for beer, so three of the four samples we had were just good to me. There were subtle differences in the hoppiness which I really liked for dimension. There is one that stood out which was a pickle beer... if you tried the Best Maid beer and you were traumatized by how gross it is, please try this beer to recover. It is absolutely incredible. We had to buy a 4-pack to go. Speaking of which! There's also the option to take a "batch" of something you enjoyed home. It is a touch expensive, but for good reason, and if I lived closer I probably would have done that with the blackberry wine! Also, the bartender was incredible. I didn't get his name but whoever was there on the 10th around 7pm, you're super cool! Service, from getting his attention, to our order being prepared, to getting the tab completed/souvenirs bought, took no time at all. I'll have to come back down from Dallas for sure.

The patrons are just there enjoying their drinks, music and friends (no visible drama the times I've been there). I'm an out-of-towner here for an extended stay in Goliad and have been in about a half a dozen times. I was fairly well accepted on my second or third time in and I've gotten to casually know a few people there have a good conversation over a beer. It's definitely my comfy spot here in town to relax and have a beer.
