Visiting from the RGV and the bar tender was spot on. We drank and played pool. Chill atmosphere outside if you want to take a break from the music and wind down.

Hard to expect a lot when someplace is open 7 days a week at 7am (including Christmas as per the bartender). We stopped after getting the final big ticket items for a drink and the bartender was great.

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. Follow up: Love what they did with the hardtop. Not as many divots as Jim puts on the golf course!! Caroline from Ukraine said this place rivals the most exclusive water holes back home!!! I think my sister mentioned having her marriage reception there with black swans floating in the pond!!!

Bartender was outside in the back in the bushes almost every time we went to order beer. When he finally came back I tried to close out my tab and he said my card was declined, I took the card back and saw that it wasnt even my card.

The Texan is a great place to have a beer ..maybe 1 or 2 or more than you can remember the next day. Great place to hang out with friends. The best Bartender in Corpus...Charlie! friendly funny and makes some great drinks. BUT...I have to say... THE RESTROOMS REALLY NEED SOME INPROVMENTS! By the crowds of people spending money at the Texan, you would think the owner would make some very much needed improvements to the restrooms.

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.

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.

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.
