Well I can tell you where not to watch the game….  Asked a guy I know that lives here and is a longhorn fan where to go, he said Brewster street.  I’ve been here fifteen minutes and not a single employee has talked to me and I’m the only one here….

Downtown or Southside?

Beer question:

Who has the coldest drafts? Who has best selection?

and who has the best A/C?

Rebel Toad is good if you’re downtown And Lorelie is out in the bluff.

Rebel Toad is good.  There is also Nueces Brewing.  Food in addition to beer.

Lorelei is a small place with not much indoor seating so you may have to sit outside if it is crowded.  But I like their brews.

I personally think Lazy Beach is not worth the trip but if for some reason you are on the south side, well, it is there.  They have hard kombucha if that is your thing.

For the Corpus folks a new meat market opened up close to downtown a few months ago.  Boarri Craft Meats, lots of waygu options, sausages I’ve tried have been great, Suya skewers, summer sausage, ect.   Their pre brinded inch thick pork chops are some of the best I’ve ever had. It’s worth checking out.  
 

The website kinda sucks though, they have more info on Instagram.

A guy I work with has been touting them so I did an online order a few weeks ago because he was going by to pick up some stuff and said he'd grab mine.  Turns out I was the very first online order because he'd just set up the website.

I had to run to downtown to get a car title last week so I stopped by and grabbed some stuff.  Owner's a cool dude.  I'm getting a free shirt because of the online thing.

Food I've eaten so far has been great - I got the bavette and made fajitas and they were awesome..

Any good recs for food downtown prior to a Hooks game?

Surf Club, has decent cheap food and a good atmosphere.  New Mexican restaurant called Frida’s opened and if you want seafood Waterstreet.  Or Brewster’s is right across from the stadium and the food isn’t bad actually.

Railroad is damn solid. Looove their avacado salad and family style orders 

water st is classic. Oysters and seafood 

those are easily the top two choices 

 

This place has odd hours, I’ve been once and it was probably the best bbq in cc. But that was years ago and weird hours

Hoegemeyer's Barbeque Barn
 

 

also, a Whataburger at Whataburger field is a must

Second railroad if you want close to the stadium. 

 

Also Portis Country kitchen depending on the gametime and if you can find the place.

They moved to a new location that isn’t in the basement anymore so it’s easy to find now.
