Here are some local places we recommend.
Stingaree, 1295 N. Stingaree Rd Crystal Beach, Texas (409) 684-2731 There is a nice deck on the canal to relax and have a drink before your meal. The seafood is delicious. We have made lots of memories on that deck.
Jose’s Cantina 1021 Hwy 87 Crystal Beach TX 77650 Good Mexican and Seafood They also have an upstairs bar with pool tables.
Jayla’s 1951 Hwy 87 Gilchrist TX 77617 The epitome of a classic “Dive Bar”. A good place to relax and it has an upstairs. If you are with a big group, not the best place to eat because they do not have the capacity for feeding large groups, but a good place to grab a cold one. Oh and it is super close by!
