I was not that impressed with the service, we saw her only twice....to bring the food and get the check. Very high priced for what you get, the crab cakes were awful!

The menu at Padre Island Brewing Co. is very similar to most restaurants on the island. You will find a plethora of fried fish/shrimp/scallops with french fries and other forms of potatoes. HOw many different ways can you fry fish? You can order pizza, too. The table next to mine ordered an appetizer of fried onion rings and they were... More

We visited this restaurant twice in April 2013. We enjoyed the Brewery because you could get good grilled food on top of a good green salad. Somehow it is difficult to find real vegetables on SPI. Almost everything is fried, including the vegetables. We can recommend the pesto chicken salad, the grilled tuna on salad and the seared ahi tuna.... More

We had the beer battered oysters (big, tender oysters) and a couple fresh beers. The oysters we're crispy and good, not greasy at all. Enjoyed a pint of stout and the wheat beer. This was one of the best priced, quality meals we had while staying a week on the island. I discovered it on our last day; wish I'd... More

We stopped in for a beer and pizza and were not disappointed! The atmosphere was very nice and the restaurant is a lot more modern looking than most of the pictures we found on line. We will definitely go back!

We've probably been here over 15 times over the course of our visits to S. Padre. Food is good, beer (brewed locally) is even better. Pizza is actually very good, and a wide variety of offerings make it a great place to go with family that have eclectic tastes.

I've eaten here for lunch before and the pizza and burgers were good so my husband and I decided to try the advertised Early Bird specials for $10.99. Alas, the waitress told us they expired. Hmmm. So we asked about the "famous" ribs for two for $17.99. Thankfully that special was still on. Unfortunately the ribs were slathered in sauce,... More

Went there for a late lunch. Tried one of their beer samplers. They had some really good ones, and the sampler was real cheap! Also had the freshest oyesters I've ever tasted!

Great beers at this local brewery. Sampler of all five current selections a great way to taste all for a very reasonable price. Excellent happy hour. Can't beat the oysters on the half shell. Best on the island.

Stopped for lunch Feb, 27, and found the food was OK, and the beers were so-so, cool, but not cold. We both had one of the lunch specials, which was a Mexican Plate or the Blackened Chicken Pasta. Both dishes were good. The sevice was not as courteous or friendly, as other restaurants in the area. I would return only... More
