I went to this bar with a friend who is a regular patron. I ordered a drink that was on "special"…read moreand fortunately paid with cash. When the bartender, Becky gave me my change, I asked for clarification on why my drink cost what it did. She immediately turns around towards the register as she explains why it costs what it did, and grabs a dollar to slam down in front of me. I didn't ask for this. But since we're talking dollars, I'm owed $3 more. I simply asked for an explanation. And when I asked her to repeat what she said because I didn't hear her response, she berated me; "oh my gawd, how many f$*&ing times do I have to repeat myself? Are you a f^%$ing idiot?" To which I responded, "woah I'm just trying to understand why my $5.50 drink cost me $9.50! After that I just saw red. I abruptly pushed the incorrect change off the bar and walked out. At the door I said "I see why this f#%*ing bar is empty! (There were 2 other people in the bar at the time at 1030pm on a Saturday) I was livid! And though I feel that was an appropriate response to the verbal assault from Becky, I do wish in the moment I just walked out without saying anything. This is the service you can expect from The Cove. Where the owner cares more about being a "bar owner" than he cares about how his customers are actually treated. Having worked in the service industry myself, I was genuinely taken aback by Becky's response to a very basic question, asked in a perfectly appropriate manner. When I'm off of work and trying to unwind at a local dive at the end of a long week, I won't pay to be treated that way. There's no need for it. P.S. Don't open a tab here!

Plenty of indoor seating with some outside smoking section available as well. Two pool tables and a dartboard. Some pinball machines as well. Only complaint would be there is no designated ordering spot at the bar. You have to talk over people that are sitting at the bar and lean between them to get a drink. It would be extremely helpful if they were to designate an ordering area only like other bars have.

The Gold Fish is a shining example of Corpus having and maintaining nice things…read more There is a common misconception that this city cannot have nice things, and that if we do get them, they do not last very long. The Gold Fish has proven this long-held collective pessimism wrong. Originally a cocktail bar only, it has now expanded into a cocktail, beer and wine outdoor/indoor bar, which makes complete sense given the city's demographic demands. It was actually one of the first businesses I was most concerned with us losing permanently during the pandemic. And I am so glad they have stuck around! It is a modern cocktail bar at its core, which makes it very unique to this city. This is an obvious adoption of cocktail bar trends from other larger cities in Texas. It is very nice, with a wide array of adult beverage options for discriminating consumers to chose from. The atmosphere is perfect, and the bartenders and staff are top-notch and super nice (the attitude is refreshing compared to what one may be used to recieving from such establishments in larger cities). I usually only come here when I have company from out-of-town, as I do not go out for drinks very often. At my most recent visit, I had just experienced a personal tragedy that I only briefly alluded to our bartender when she asked how our day was going. The amount of sincere compassion we received was not expected at all. My only regret is that I did not get her name, or else I would have gladly included it in this review.

It's not the fanciest of places, but they have high aspirations. Maybe even infinite aspirations. Pretty basic, really. It'll be a kind of hip-hop vibe more at night, and they'll push drinks that cater to the crowd. There's a bar in the back, and in the front. Back bar might not be open, depending on the crowd that night. When I was here two girls got in a fight in the back bar area, and had to be separated. Kinda ratchet in that way.

I also have to give a shoutout to Gabe, Hannah, and Morgan--they're my favorite bartenders and always make the experience even better. And Marc absolutely kills it in the kitchen.
