50 Best Bars in Corpus Christi

“amazing place, love the place and the people“

“We found this place searched Facebook. We were here visiting for the weekend, the staff was friendly and courteous. The food was great, definitely recommend.“

“Owner truly cares about the safety & concerns of his community, patrons, staff and bands. Door guys are always welcoming & greet everyone with a great attitude but they also stand ten toes on business. Lots of great friends of mine in bands play here a lot and it’s always a blast & a place close to home to go & support. There’s a time and place for drama but not here. Check it at the door. Eat their food, tip your bartenders who serve up tirelessly and work hard, respect the space and platform you’re given if you are in a band and remember, if you’re the one booking bands from out of town to play here, let’s all represent accordingly and respectfully for this place and what they have to offer for people and everyone else on all spectrums of the scenes. Music lovers, foodies, stoners, drunks, sober people, everyone is welcome. Let’s continue to keep this space open and fun for EVERYONE. The staff and door guys are openly available if you have safety concerns or issues about any individuals in which they do in fact escalate to the owner if needed. I’ve always had fun here with my friends and went home still talking about how much fun we all had days later. Black Monk does their part exponentially in keeping it that way. Big ups to Zane, Ollie, Morgan, the kitchen and door guys.“

“Enjoyable atmosphere. The outdoor seating is refreshing. Relaxed setting and casual or business comfortable attire. We were there for the Flamenco performance. Though I did not eat, I was able to see others food. The appetizers looked amazing.“

“Food was amazing! Had a very nice waitress, named Jaclyn, who tended to our table. She was very quick on her feet with our refills and order. Will be back to try more menu options. Fish tacos⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I just wanted to take the time and say Big Thank You So Much for allowing the couple to have their anniversary reception at your location. Presentation and drinks were beautiful & perfect. I loved how everyone was smiling while they were working everyone worked as a team. The event was a success!!! Great Team Work Everyone!!! 👍🏼🎉🥰💜✨“

“Best experience I’ve had at a bar. The whole staff is so much fun and so welcoming. Such a nice and friendly place to hangout at. They were so good to our dogs, gave them treats and came to pet them; our dogs loved them! Daysai is the best bartender!!“

“Several friends and colleagues have recommended Prohibition to me. I decided to visit the establishment this past Saturday. First, I would like to say, "Wow." I know that is a strong statement, and I don't use it lightly. Upon entering, I was greeted with a smile, and I let them know I was there to visit the Prohibition lounge. Dom, the GM, came up to me with a solid handshake and an eagerness to help. He walked me to the lounge and was well-versed in cigars and my favorite pipe tobacco. He even offered a fresh blend he had just purchased. Outstanding. While at the bar, Chani (bartender) was quick to serve and to offer services such as food, drinks, and cigars. She was busy and efficient, all with a smile. She took pride in her work. The bar had a nice variety of whiskey and bourbon. The ambiance was the best in town. I ordered food as well; the Rick Rolls were delicious and hearty. I plan to return and highly recommend a visit if you are in the vicinity.“

“This was an amazing place!!! The wifeski and I were celebrating our anniversary a couple weeks late and this was a great restaurant. It took a minute to adjust to the low lighting. However, the decor was nice, comfortable couches, chairs and lounge area. The drinks were great. I had an old fashion and children of the corn. We shared a salmon pincetta and I had the Filetto NWL as my entree. Both were spectacular! Eric Graham set the mood with great covera and some originals as well. The wait staff was very friendly and attentive. Any time a staff member came by they were always asking if we needed anything.“

“Great place for drinks and fun live music. one of the reasons to say down town Corpus Christi is the best place to party. I highly recommend Rockits“

“Not much to look at from outside, but very friendly on the inside. We had a great time and met some great folks. COLD BEER! Will for sure go back“

“Honestly, I'm not exactly a beer connoisseur, and I've always passed by this place for years, but I finally stopped by on my birthday weekend and got to taste some of their crazy beer flavors. I mean, blueberry beer? That's a new one, but weirdly, I loved it! The vibe was awesome, with great tunes and friendly people. I'll definitely be back for more! 😃“

But, not by the gorgeous views, the drinks or the puzzles.....We were blown away by Aly! She is a gem with a fantastic attitude, great information about the town and just a very genuine person! Y'all are very fortunate to have her representing your business. She was off for the weekend and wow, what a change in the vibe! Thank you, Aly, for making our stay a very memorable one!

Atmosphere is hard to beat as it is on a dock by the marina with piers to walk and sights to see! Games are available and the bar makes excellent drinks as well! The people here are great and it has become one of our favorites.“

“Good place to have a nice time with your colleagues. Nothing too fancy, just the right atmosphere. Sometimes they have special events going on for sports and other types of events. Not sure what days they are open, I’m assuming the follow typical government hours.Prices are decent and quality as well. You sure will have a good time and be pleased with the quality and customer service. Will definitely recommend, specially if you’re on post, it’s just across from the hotel on base and walkable distance from anywhere inside of post.Overall liked it!“

“Yesterday I was feeling a bit down and a friend recommended that I go to my comfort bar and watch the game. Well after watching a video on Tik Tok of a girl in Iran expressing her pain of what's happening their I made a duet video of it to share her message. I look up after and it seemed I offended a older Hispanic guy seating two seats away from me. A man who was looking for another man it seems. Anyway, the bar back comes to me along with the bartender and asked me to leave. I was so in shock that I had to make a video of what was happening. SHAME ON YOU MS. ELLY'S“

“Perfect location to sip a drink and watch the waves come in. Moderately priced and plenty of different seating options. Friendly people come and chat with you if you sit up at the bar. They are independent from the hotel but do offer food options from their restaurant. Although I didn’t try any food, I heard the burgers are good.“

“Izzy’s Bar & Patio has one of the best vibes in town! The atmosphere is always friendly and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for friends and family to gather. The music keeps the crowd energized, and every time we go, we leave with great memories. Definitely one of our go-to places!“

“Best tacos ! For taco Tuesday’s“

“The inside is way bigger than it looks on the outside. You can almost walk by without even knowing it's there. The venue has plenty of space and a stage for live music. The staff is friendly and quick to respond. They have a pool table and plastic tip darts for entertainment! Not a bad spot to hang out and have a drink or some grub!“

“i love the environment went lastnight and brandy was the best bartender i ever experienced!!!!! will be back for more❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Took it to-go the staff was very nice. The food was delicious! Definitely coming back! It was hot and fresh!“

“Two 🤙🤙 always on point with the dressing of my beers 🍻 XX“

“Omni’s Caller & Critic continues to impress with its attention to detail and elevated guest experience. The newly remodeled lounge area is superb, modern, inviting, and thoughtfully designed in a way that immediately enhances the atmosphere.

The staff is genuinely pleasant and professional, creating a welcoming environment that feels both polished and comfortable from the moment you arrive.

On select evenings, the live music is a standout touch. It adds a refined layer to the space, complementing the lounge without ever becoming overbearing, and helping shape a relaxed, enjoyable experience.

A consistently strong presence downtown and a great example of how thoughtful updates and quality service come together.“

“Came to Keg Room on a suggestion, and it was nice. I like it's kinda hidden, and looks like it has its regulars. It appears to be the place you wanna take someone if yall want a place to have drinks and talk. The music wasn't loud and it has a "cozy" feel to it. Me, being a Halloween 🎃 Fanatic, I loved the dark Halloween feel. If this is the vibe here, then I'm totally coming back.“

“Nice service and nice people.🍺🥃🤣“

“It was my first time at the NEGRETE's and I liked the place every much the music was great and the people where really cool ...unfortunately I was there for a family benefit for a awesome lady my girlfriend Viola Duque who passed away on 9/20/19 they had a great turn out ...I will personally miss my girlfriend deeply“
