“This place was just what we were looking for. To me it was a little hole in the wall spot. Great atmosphere, bartender was very friendly and service was great. I was skeptical about the food but my hubby told me these were the best places to get food. I ordered the wings, order of 8 for a great low price. These wings were so much better than most major wing restaurants!! If your walking the strand come a few blocks up and visit this little tucked away hole in the wall bar, you will not be disappointed!!!“

Island Time Beach Bar & Grill Bar • $
3102 Seawall Blvd, Galveston

“Island Time became our watering hole on our recent vacation and we were so happy with our experience. The staff was amazing, especially Julie and Josh, the drinks were fantastic, the food was your typical bar food but it was good, and the drag show was entertaining. The only negative that our group had to say was that the drag performers were a little too push for tips; literally putting their hand in front of you for a tip. This happened a few times to us, and others, and when we tipped them one of them rolled their eyes and said “that’s it”. Other than that, we had a great time and would totally go back to this fun and welcoming place.“

“I live nearby and saw the special for the $5 cheeseburger on Thursdays. Finally gave it a shot and I have to say that it was quite delicious. The bread was yummy and the meat was very juicy. Some might think it was too greasy, but no one wanted a dry hamburger anyway. It had excellent flavor and was cooked to order. I’m not sure that it’s worth the $15 as regularly priced, but either way, I was very happy with it and will order again in the future!“

I wouldn't call this a brewery though, the only Galveston Island beers on tap from my visit were from Galveston Island Brewery. Their selection of other people's beers was really solid though, would definitely recommend as a craft beer bar. Just took off 1 star because I was hoping for a brewery.“
