Great bar and even better bartender in the afternoon. Have been to rock shows many years ago and happens to pass by one afternoon and figured why not. Had been one of those days. The bartender Jessica (beautiful by the way) kept the cold beers coming and always had a smile. The regulars that were in there were great to listen to while I did a little work and had a few beers. I actually went back a few days later and the same great experience was had. This will definitely be one of my weekly stops when I need a couple of beers after a long day.
Nice and small, great outside area! Good music in the box!
Good place to hang with friends and a couple of cold ones.
This place has a great atmosphere, 2 pool tables, a shuffle board, a jukebox that connect to your phone, and a poker game machine. They have some of the coolest bartenders and are now serving BarbQ! The smell breaks me everytime, I end up ordering the pulled pork sandwich! Also they have one of the best bloody Marys around! Like Im not kidding! Im a bloody Mary girl an have been looking for the best in corpus Christi and I have to sayyyy... I think I have found it here at the Texan! They have IPA beer and lets not forget to mention they have cheaper prices.
First time there. Next clean place. Will be going again for a drink nd hang out with family.
Charlie is the best! One of my favorite places
Service was perfectly fine but it smelled....odd. They had a live band but the place clearly didnt quite prepare for a live band
Great little bar with huge outside area for smoking. The big fella with glasses behind the bar is exceptional at his craft. He was very fast during a crowded night.Big rule here, have a good time and be respectful of others doing the same.Only thing I found bad was the size of the mens toilet. Airplane size.
Great outside area. Friendly laid back regulars. Fast bartenders.
Great place to meet up with friends!
Cool bar, like the boots in the background. Bartender guy was awesome.
Great drink prices and one of my fav places to go to cuz u can actually still talk to the people ur with because the music isnt over powering ....charlie is the best bartender there as well
Hung out in this neighborhood joint 25 years ago. It has not changed much, which is a good thing. Great place to wet your whistle and take it easy!
1st time coming here. Great service and drinks. Outdoor patio was cool.
There are 2 great dive bars in Corpus. This is one of the 2. Great bar, great prices, friendly staff, awesome location. Definitely hit up this bar if youre ever in Corpus Christi.
1st time here and didnt even get to order a drink. It was near the end of Sunday funday but the guy bartender was not having it. Granted Sundays are slow and it was late in the evening but for us to leave couldnt be a good sign. On a side note I was told the female bartender is pretty awesome. May try again if she is working 😄
Two Pool tables, shuffle board, juke box, friendly people. Nice selection of booze and beer. Great back yard garden setting with picnic tables here and there, and a set up for playing washers.
Love this bar, its one of the only two I really care to go to in corpus. Its not a trendy or upscale tavern, its a bar where everyone who walks in and knows how to act is welcome. Occasional rock bands play on weekends, other than that its never really crowded, but theres always a good crowd :-)Best patio in town, with a large BBQ pit where anyone can come responsibly cook on, they might even supply some lighter and foil if you look like you know what youre doing, and brought enough to share... did I mention theres a zero tolerance for drama? Nuff said huh~
Neighborhood bar... Backyard is AMAZING! I can walk back there and it feels like I fall out of the city and land in the jungle. Killer spot for both groups and privacy!
Fun met some great ppl there
Cool little spot where people in texas go to feel a bit more texan.
Good service and a Bombshell was on duty while I was there this late afternoon
Great outside patio in the back, you can even bring food to bbq there if Im not mistake
Texan, was great. Awesome place. Great place and good people, and cold beers. Go friends.
People AKA Purge bar patrons hated on me and my fiancé because much older than I and Caucasian, Im Native American
Great people! Great place! And always a great time!
Best bar ever!
Cold beer good music
Fun fun fun good clean fun. Nice atmosphere and very welcoming.
Love an early morning bar
Best beer garden around great prices
Had a wonderful time. Enjoyed myself. Made some friends. Thanks to the cook & the bartenders, who by the way were exceptional.
The blonde bartender was rude but love the other ones
The Texan offers great service, 3 pool tables, electric dartboards, and shuffleboard. The best part is a large covered patio, and well kept garden seating anyone would be proud to have as their own! They offer an open jam session every Sunday night, 8-?, and also serve as a small venue for local and visiting bands. The happy hour is generous, and serve a wide variety of beers!
Pool was great and the service was great good time all around
The Valet took really good care of our Maserati. They had our reserved table ready and every one there was so polite. The drink specials were spot on with the right mix of flavors and varieties. The night time helicopter ride arrived after we had finished our socializing with the locals which was just the best. We hope to have our new sail boat christening there if the owners are up to it. We really love this annual visit.
I grew up there
Cool laid-back atmoshere.
Great place to relax
Chill place awesome drink specials
How have I not reviewed the Texan yet? Its a staple for my visits to Corpus Christi - solid dive bar with an amazing walled garden in the back yard, full of plants and trees from around the world. One of the proprietors daughters is a botanist, and she selected a wonderful variety of plants native to South America to provide a private garden for patrons in the back. Worth a stop if you have 20 minutes to grab a drink and chat with some locals.
Great people and great drinks .
Excellent bartender
Nice bar, quiet
Texan Drive In is a great hangout for friends and family alike. Staff is Awesome, Live music makes it even more of a plus. 🖤💜🖤💜
If you want to get away from the stupid kids going to the bar trying to get laid and that annoying young crowd with terrible music this is your place. Im 23 and even I hate going to young, hip places because the atmosphere isnt relaxing and laid back like this place is. The bartenders and regulars here are so nice, theres a great outdoor seating area with lots of trees for shade and wildlife if thats your thing. People even grill out in the patio area sometimes. One of my favorite spots to hang out and unwind! Definitely recommend
I have to say I was impressed. The interior of the bar and the service was nothing like I expected. It was clean, and the service very good. The drink prices were reasonable and very competitive. I liked it.
Great place from my experience. The man behind the bar was awesome. The live band was great and they have a nice outdoor area with lots of seating and washers. Also cheap pool at $0.75 per game
Drinks were very small and expensive for a dive bar.
Best bar in corpus by far
Cold BEER and liquor drinks. Pleasant atmosphere. Friendly people. Pool tables 2. Music box. Awesome outdoor patio With picnic tables plenty. And it is shaded by trees. Really cool outside. Bbq pit out back. Serve beer buckets too. What more do you want!!
Love the back patio
This is one of my favorite bars. Its dark, the backyard area is beautiful, music is always good, and beer is cold. The reason its my favorite is because of the back area. You can have private secluded conversations with plants surrounding you. What more could you ask for.
Its an old, dive bar. A fun hole in the wall kinda bar with a juke box. Occasionally they have some live rock bands. If you need a smoke or want more of a laid back area they have the best backyard/smoking area in town. Youll find yourself in a secret garden with picnic tables almost hidden within trees and bushes & center area set up for bbqs & am outdoor game of washers. Inside they also have a couple of pool tables, dart boards, and shuffleboard!
The best prices on drinks in the city
One of my favorite dive bars, anywhere. Darlene is a great bartender. Sometimes live music in the weekend. The back yard is very relaxing. Washer pit is fun.
It was great. Everyone seemed to be having a good time. Rock Show was great with Refuel.
Great service, great people
My regular spot. Friendly service. Decent prices. Live music. AMI jukebox.
The Texan is my go-to and Charlie is the best!
Home away from home .if I choose to go to a bar.
The quintisential hole in the wall. But, it holds a beautiful surprise outside the back door. A great place for pitching washers or throwing darts.
Can’t say anything bad. Staff was great and drinks were awesome
Divey dive fo sho! But cheap drinks if alcohol intake is the most important thing for you.
Great place wonderful environment I would definitely recommend for anybody to come to this place
Open 24hr
Cozy inside small yet spacy, however outside in back is like no other, like you stepped into another part of the world. I have never seen a setup like what I saw at the Texan. Bartender was cool and was informative, so I wont hold it against him that he is from Louisiana and is a LSU fan, lol.
Dead bar with only locals being better served. Wont be back.
Cool lil bar. Great service
Great place to drink, chill and shoot pool ...music is great on weekends. Great outdoor area out back...gotta love this place⚡
Amazing chill spot with a sweet backyard patio
They have a nice garden in the back. Inside is small. Only one bartender and the crowd is... alright.. drink prices are really decent.
Had a fun and exciting time with friends here. Recommend others to visit soon.
I love this bar! The best bartenders in town! Awesome atmosphere.
Always good drinks, and the back patio is awesome.
Great people and even better atmosphere. Very friendly and awesome place to chill
Cool spot... Diffenitly will go back.
Fun fun fun good clean fun
The bartendering needs some work but other that its a good hang out.
Love this place. Live music, DJs, The staff all Awesome.🎼🎼🎼
They have a beautiful beer garden out back
Amazing
Great dive bar with the best backyard in S. Texas!
Loved it. Make great memories their with great friends...
Hardcore bar, it’s laid back but don’t mess around with these men.
Great bar with friendly staff, had a great time while we were visiting from Dallas for work. Will definitely come here next time I am in town!!!
Alway a good place to go for some R&R
Awesome place to have a great time
The restrooms are small. The drinks are very expensive. When you ask for your drink dressed its half naked. Didnt enjoy it. But the bartender is really nice.
Great neighborhood bar full service and great live music.. a must see
Small bar with 8 stools, 6 tables, 2 pool tables and dart machines. But huge fenced-in backyard with plenty of seating, trees, and benches. Best part is that you can hear the juke box outside.
Friendly staff...fun patrons...great prices...good time!
Great service. Love when live bands plays.
Food very good ..a little pricey, but you get alot for the pricr
From my first visit to this bar, I liked it and still do, all the bar tenders will make you feel welcomed. Theres this new bbq guy and hes always grillin and his food is real good.
One of the oldest and nicest pubs in Town..great people and atmosphere, fair prices, I highly recommend this place,also a nice patio outback...
Womens bathroom is way too small. The toilet was between the door and the sink. They did have pool tables.
