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.

This is a downtown Corpus bar that is the more "nightclub" side of a two-bar operation (the other…read moreis a karaoke bar next door). 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.

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.

Looked for a place to take a teenager to play video games, this was an odd place to do that. It's a…read morebar with sports on TV on the walls (private event upstairs, could not see up there). And a few old school video games and pinball machines. $12 for an armband for the teen to play. But it's a bar. We did not try the food, but the beer on tap was cold. Not the environment we were looking for. Maybe a Dave & Buster's next time.

The games are now located on the ground floor, featuring far less than before. However, it seems the $12 "entry" for an all you can play wristband is not necessarily enforced so the two even out. Featuring mostly classic one player games and pinball machines (which, to be fair is the sole reason I went) you are still able to get in quite a lot of play! Just don't expect the whole shebang. For now, or at least when I was there, the upstairs was now more of a dance scene. Well, it should have been, we observed it entirely dark and not a soul in sight so either it's a late night thing or people simply don't go up there anymore. The rooftop was also closed this night, which again may just be a weekend thing. Returning back to the first floor, we played plenty of games, and ordered plenty of drinks. As far as service and price, honestly couldn't be beat! We had a great bartender and all of them seemed to be good at working the crowd. Be prepared for banter, and people who are simply there to chill and have a good time. A fun spot for sure, but maybe not my first choice when looking for a night out. Rather, the place you end up AFTER a night out. Solid middle of the road for me.
