Love this place ... Lots of beer on draft ... (Hence the name) Love the food options very reasonably priced. Total bar atmosphere. Which is what I enjoy

The Draft 1488 is one of our favorite local spots! We’ve been here several times, and every visit has been consistently great. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting making it perfect for lunch or a casual hangout. The food is always fresh, and their fried pickles are hands down the best in town!
We came in during the day for a late lunch and had almost no wait time, which was a nice surprise. The service was friendly and fast, and everything came out hot and well-prepared.
If you’re looking for a great place to grab a bite with friends or family, this is definitely one of the best choices in the area. Highly recommend!

I’ve gone to the draft regularly since they opened the doors with the original owners years ago. Since the new owners have taken over they have run this place into the ground!
Food is terrible to the point that many people leave to get food. The wings are about the only thing I’d consider eating and you’re going to have to wait 30 - 40 min on average because they have one cook who doesn’t speak English and has to use Google Translate on his phone to communicate with the staff.
The tv service was off for months and no way to watch sports other than a tv or two that they were streaming to. I have been present when pool tables, juke box and darts were removed due to non payment from the company that leased them. Centerpoint showed up to turn the power off on a Friday for non payment and the bartender had to ask him to wait while she called the owners to pay the bill so she could keep the bar open.
CO2 was out for multiple days and and no draft beers or sodas etc worked. Cranberry was out for over a week. There’s constantly trash all over the patio and even the entrance piled out of a cigarette butt container. Tables and chairs are stacked up all over the patio and inside the bar and shoved against walls along with poker tables.
Bottom line if you’re looking for good food and service this isn’t your place anymore. If you’re looking for a makeshift poker room / pool tournament where your shoes stick to the floor and you aren’t hungry or thirsty this place is for you.
This used to be a great spot and great crawfish but I will not return until ownership changes again.
The angry elephant, Tailgators and moonshine deck are all within a mile or two and are FAR better options

The food is good but they are very slow in cooking it
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Draft 1488 has quickly become one of my favorite spots in Magnolia.
The atmosphere is laid-back but stylish — the kind of place where you can come for one drink and end up staying all night. The cocktails are consistently on point, and that’s thanks in large part to Sky, the bartender. Sky has a knack for reading the room (and your mood) and will whip up something that somehow tastes like exactly what you didn’t know you wanted. Friendly, quick with a laugh, and seriously talented behind the bar — Sky makes the whole experience even better.
The food here goes way beyond your standard bar bites — creative, fresh, and perfect for sharing. Service overall is attentive without being overbearing, and the vibe strikes the sweet spot where you can actually have a conversation without shouting.
If you’re looking for a spot that nails good drinks, good people, and good energy, Draft 1488 is it. Ask for Sky at the bar — you’ll thank me later.

I have visited quite a few times and although there are things lacking with the establishment itself (technical issues mostly). This 5 star is for an individual employee. Every time my family and I have visited we have been served by Skye. She has been an absolute pleasure to work with. I always find her to be extremely attentive to our needs as guests. Drinks stay replaced if requested and the food always comes out hot. Skye always has a pleasant attitude and demeanor. Highly recommend anyone visiting to ask for her specifically.
