About the Company
rating: 4.6
El Hueso De Fraile is a family run, culture preservation center, which offers a unique atmosphere in south Texas. A delicious coffee or organic tea, a made from scratch, family recipe sandwich, and some delightful music and art from all cultures create the perfect lunch. Later, at night, with a glass of wine, a shot of mezcal or spirits and coctails, with a craft beer, the place embodies a candle light, warm, ambiance full of entertainment, and positive energy, where live music of all kinds and people, of all ages and life paths coexist.

Ordered an americano however it wasn t made with a typical espresso using an espresso machine, it was made using drip coffee. Service was slow despite it being an americano which is the easiest drink to make and was still charged $5 again despite again it being a fake americano.

Great craft beer selection, friendly staff and quality live music every night. Have bought several pieces of jewelry they sell from local vendors over the years and have had many wonderful nights here :) My only complaint is that they are no longer open on Sundays and Mondays! Lol

We tried their vegan sandwich. It was excellent. They should make more vegan food here, they know what they are doing for sure. A large selection of beers here, stouts, porters, ipa and ofcourse lager and pilsner. Prices overall I would say very reasonable. Service was friendly and the staff in general was helpful. Would not hesitate to visit them again.

Sat at the bar for 10 minutes made eye contact with 3 people behind the bar and no one asked if i wanted anything..... not even a well be righ with you... i do not recommend if you want anything that resembles ok Service. Gave it 1 star because i doesnt think it is possible to give it less. 2 thumbs down.

Excellent atmosphere, very musical, and they treated me excellently. The food was very delicious, I ordered a baguette, it is small in size but the truth is that it is a good size and the ingredients are of good quality, super good flavor. It cost me 12dlls and I bought a lemonade, super delicious. And we ordered a beer. It was an exquisite appetizer and the music was even better. The place is highly recommended to go as a couple or with the family.

Love the live music vibe, owners and staff are wonderful people. I had an ice coffee, 2 g&ts, and a LI iced tea all for 35 bucks! Cant beat that with a stick. Front patio is a cool place to hang out as well. Didnt order any food from the menu, but things I saw being sent to tables all looked delicious.

This club has the Old Beat Neck style to go along with music from Brownsville artists. They serve a wide variety drinks, exotic teas, home made food, and especially an assortment of beer at a reasonable price. If you like Jazz go Thursday evenings to hear Delta Dave s band called Handelman Park. There interesting jam sessions every evening.

I went yesterday when it was the charro days carnival. Its the craziest place Ive ever been to. What a shame for Brownsville, and Ive lived here all my life. The owners son walking in and out grabbing beers for his friends and smelling like marijuana and not at all respectful or professional. There were no people in the place, only two tables with people and it took more than an hour to give me my 2 black coffees, a cappuccino and a hot chocolate. I went yesterday to get 2 coffees, a cappuccino and a hot chocolate they seriously took more than an hour to prepare my order and there was literally just 2 tables in there. One of the tables was the owners son and his friends I could tell because he was young and he kept grabbing beers for his friends so unprofessional went in and out the place smoking weed and not even helping with the customers. That guy really makes this place so ghetto and unwelcoming. Ive seen some reviews and they also say bad things about this guy.
