For Valentine's Day me and my partner decided, like last year to go to Corpus Christi for two…read morereasons: we thought Valentine's Day would not be crazy and the ocean is our happy place. Of course I was wrong. Our usual spot was packed to the brim but as usual we had a good time. The next day the trip to our usual pit stop was unceremoniously closed. Our hunger meter was slowly approaching towards "Hangry." The day before we noticed a place in a restaurant group called "B&J's" that offered pizza, grinders( a Michigan Staple) and brewed their own craft beer. When we got there before opening at noon, cars slowly started to fill up available parking spaces. I always see this as a good sign. In addition I always survey a menu before I go to any spot. My opinion is that it is always good to have a Plan B just in case a situation arises. And with traveling, there will always be variables So we went inside and it was not at all what I expected. A brewpub, to me denotes a seemingly mature crowd. Instead families were visiting to have parties. I saw a couple there for a date. Every demographic young and old was represented. It was extremely welcoming. So I ordered their lunch special that comes with a drink and an 8 inch pizza. And my partner went with an Italian Grinder. It's basically counter service. And you sit where you want. Me, like Norm from "Cheers" I am drawn to where the tapwall is. The interior feels like a lived in pizza joint with lots of stories. There is ample seating but judging by the birthday parties happening it fills up quickly. By the time I got to the bar's counter all the lights were on. Hanging from the ceiling was a chandelier made of taphandles of all the breweries that have traversed here. I wondered how some of those places regionally, nationally and locally made it here? Corpus Christi is like an island with hidden gems abound. No matter. I pounded on thee counter as any seafaring matey from San Antonio, Texas would do. They have a good selection of beers on tap and in cans. The tapmaster, Mikey poured me a pint of the Red Eye PA, an Imperial IPA. No sooner did my pour come to me that the food also arrived. My pizza was good as well as the grinder. The service is excellent here. Firstly tapmaster Mikey was an extremely friendly and knowledgeable server. I can tell he is passionate about the beers and food served there. As a craft beer enthusiast I enjoy talking to likeminded people. And talking to him was like having a conversation with a walking encyclopedia. He definitely made our detour worth the trip. We are already making plans to visit again soon. B&J's Pizza and Brewpub is an excellent place to bring families, friends, dates and birthday parties. The pizza is good. The beers are great. And the service is excellent. We had an amazing experience there. I think I have found a new spot when we are in Corpus Christi. ps. Any place that has a "Busted Sandal Brewing Co." sticker on their wall will get 5 stars from me, all day!

I just want to say that this place went ABOVE & BEYOND for my wife's graduation afterparty. We had decorations that we requested to be set up upon arrival to surprise our graduate and they set-up the tables beautifully and delivered! Our server, the tall gentleman with glasses (his name starts with an "A"), was absolutely INCREDIBLE and so attentive despite having numerous parties at once. The management was also so incredibly kind and catered so well to my families requests despite them being busy. On top of everything, the food was brought out so quick & was delicious. And so were the drinks! My father-in-law actually said he would drive an hour an a half just for the burger. My family was very happy and satisfied with our trip to BJ's in Corpus Christi and we will be regularly visiting this location in the future. I just have to say thank you, thank you, thank you for making this day so special for my family and I. We love you!!

Let me preface this by saying that this resturaunt clearly puts their heart and soul into the food…read more It was amazing. And the manager we spoke to went above and beyond to make sure not only we were ok, but she was checking on so many tables and was in the back helping the kitchen. I'm sorry to her that we had these issues while it was so busy. Also the ambiance was excellent. Beautiful decor very simple yet elegant. I wish I tried the beer but i was upset and not hungry anymore. Story Time: we came to the restaurant ordered a lot of food. They had a sign on the table for the happy hour from 3 to 7 after we had ordered off of that happy hour menu we had found out that that menu is for the bar and patio it is not for dining. my chicken parmigiana with spaghetti had a long black hair in it which confused me because the man who brought it to me had like no hair. I had told our waitress about the hair and just asked for it to be taken off our bill that was the end of that conversation because she never came back to our table for the rest of the night which was about 45 minutes to an hour of us being there. The manager was kind enough to offer us not only the buffalo sliders, but she also asked if we wanted one of their famous pazookies which was of course phenomenal. Overall, the experience wasn't terrible I'm writing this so the situation will actually be followed up on. When the manager had brought our bill over. Again, our server was dealing with her other three tables so she was apparently too busy. So the manager was our correspondence that's when we found out about the specials but we had asked the manager a server our server who i went to ask for a box. And then we had to ask another server for a box and she brought us a bowl. All of this while our server was purposefully, avoiding our table going out out of her way, physically to not have to walk next to our table which was near the bar. She walked around other sections so that she didn't have to walk past us to go to the table that was behind us.

We ordered the street tacos and an elote cup, and both dishes hit the spot. The tacos had solid flavor -- simple, well‑seasoned, and satisfying after a full day out. The elote cup was the standout for me, with that tangy Tajín kick blended into the mayo. It gave it a bright, zesty flavor that made it easy to finish. Overall, it was a good quick bite paired with the relaxed brewery atmosphere. If you're already here for an event or a drink, the food is a nice bonus.

No liquor or mixed drinks. Maybe some beer, we didn't ask. They directed us down the road a bit to a fuller bar but this place looked great if you were a wine drinker and the prices seemed reasonable. They do not serve food but you can order from the restaurant down the block or bring in food I believe. They have TVs and lots of room. The wood and decor is very nice. It just was not what we were looking for at that moment but I suggest you check it out if your in the area.

They have a great selection of beer, wine and in the near future will be adding liquor. The staff is friendly and prompt with the drinks. 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.

One of the newer ones.Each time we've been there everything has been flawless. The servers are friendly and efficient, updated menu with new additions. Recently, we had a delivery and it was so unlike our Applebee's. If you didn't know they have delicious, tender baby back ribs...Yum! However don't know what happened this time, the ribs were so tough, we could barely get our knifes through, and only ate two each, and had to pitched them. But the good news is the manager, Liz came to the rescue, as soon as she heard my complaint. She kindly urged us to come back and would fully replace our meals. Once there she was so lovely and sincerely apologized. Our server, Jordan, also did not disappoint. We switched up from our many usuals and was delighted . Jordan recommended their new salad, Strawberry Balsamic Chicken Salad, and it's my new favorite. Fabulous combination of flavors, and DELICIOUS . My son also selected a new dish, Lemon Parmesan Chicken, and it's a new favorite too. Liz, is an outstanding manager, frequently checking in on us, and was extremely kind and professional. She has taken the initiative to be titled "Attitude Adjustment Manager", and is a perfect title. Don't hesitate to check it out. It's a new, improved Applebee's, with all the old favorites and seemingly adding new additions and updating their menu. And it's such a contemporary, beautiful atmosphere. Let Liz know about your experience, as she genuinely cares. Bravo! As for the baby back ribs, have had them since, and perfect. Let's face it, every place can have an off night, and they were eager to make it right. I'm getting some cravings just thinking about it!
