    My wife's virgin drink!

    First time to this hide out, glad we stopped by! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The venue was hosting Singo Bingo, that was fun, first time for me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The bartender, Bridgette was great! She took our order prepared the drinks as asked HUGE plus. Outside, pizza was prepared as ordered. (Theres a menu but the "Mad Scientist" prepped our pizza as asked.) The bartender also made my wife a beautiful mocktail with an orchid in it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The lighting outside was relaxing and bliss.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The scenery was beautiful![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lovely Sunday afternoon on the patio. Early, so it was quiet. Peaceful[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Interesting drinks! The charcuterie board was adjusted for my pescatarian date. The bartender was super pleasant and helpful. Can't wait to come back!

    Dirty Martini w/Citadelle Gin prepared by Tiffany!

    I've heard a great deal about this place and there is no wonder...it's along the Canal (not sure which) but if you like beachy/tropical feel this is it...it has a great patio but I spent time at the bar as the patrons and bartender are as entertaining as any ambience may get be. In any case Tiffany was the bartender at this time and typical to a very talented bartender can tell you more about the liquor to select for your mixed drink (in this case a dirty Martini made with, at Tiffany's recommendation, Citadelle Gin) since I was in the mood for something botanical and it was a great recommendation! The second Martini was made with Aviation Gin which was again recommended by Tiffany as I was looking for a variation from the 1st. Bottom line, a great place for 'gourmet' drinks.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great Drinks & Ambiance![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Can't remember the name of the drink but it was basically a PINK Negroni!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]One of the coolest bars in Kemah and it's Not just tiki drinks![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Very impressive selection of spirits, plenty of specials and even karaoke! Courtney's service and cocktails were top notch!

    I'm very new to the tiki scene, having first discovered how fun the cocktails are at a distillery in San Leon. I'm so glad to have found Coco's, much closer and like the title says--on the canal! I loved being on the deck with my perfect Last Word. When the mosquitoes invited themselves to join, I really enjoyed the live music and air conditioning inside. The free pizza didn't hurt. The bartenders were incredibly knowledgeable, and our tiki favorites were on the menu (unlike another place on NASA that I will never return to).

    mai tai on left (which is creamy with coconut for some reason?) and zombie on right. not good

    Coco's is a cute little bar nestled on the canal. They have some pretty nice decor and an excellent outdoor seating area. They also have a small stage where they feature different acts and live music. We came for burlesque night. While I think this venue has great potential - it is a super cute spot - the 'tiki' drinks left us disappointed. We frequent other tiki bars in HTX, like Lei Low and Toasted Coconut, so we were extremely hopeful that this would be a local clear lake tiki option for us. We also are big followers of the Smugglers Cove book and frequent those tiki joints across the US. The drinks at Coco's were not authentic (they didn't even match the menu descriptions - i.e. the mai tai had coconut cream in it....), and not delicious. We tried two different bartenders and the results were equally as disappointing. It's a shame because they have all the right ingredients, i don't know if they need training or if they need to stick to the recipe or what. Anywho, we will probably be back for live entertainment at some point, but we will stick to non-tiki drinks. Parking is very limited, so recommend getting there very early if you're attending an event.

    I'm extremely happy with Seabrook Classic Cafe and highly recommend supporting this restaurant!…read more My first experience here was actually during a pretty stressful situation. My vehicle broke down at the dock at Lakeside Yachting Center during a storm, and I couldn't find a tow company willing to come get me. I ended up being stuck at the dock overnight. The staff at Seabrook Classic Cafe were incredibly kind and let me come in to charge my phone while I figured things out. I was very hungry, so I ordered their egg sandwich, and it was fresh and delicious. Even though I live about an hour away, that experience made such a good impression that I came back later to try more of their menu. I'm happy to say everything else I tried was just as good. The stuffed jalapenos were excellent, very flavorful and stuffed with crab and cheese. I also ordered the chicken fried chicken, which was great, especially with their toast. The fruit bowl was fresh, and of course I had to get another egg sandwich, which was just as good as I remembered. They even brought us a complimentary slice of carrot cake, and it was fantastic. I'll definitely be coming back again to get more of that carrot cake, and next time I'd also love to try their prime rib. Our server was very friendly, and I really enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant. It has a cozy, retro diner feel that makes it a great place to sit down and relax. This restaurant has absolutely earned my business. Even though I live an hour away, I make multiple trips to the South, and I'll definitely be stopping here often!

The server was great and helped me get a "breakfast like" meal. I actually got a few things to go for others to try, because they had not arrive in town yet.

    Wow. WOW is the word to describe this place…read more Let me tell you about Bella the bartender, the BEST bartender I have ever encountered in my entire life. And listen, I'm basically a certified alcoholic (just kidding... allegedly), so trust me when I say I know a good drink when I taste one. I've sampled enough lovely liquors in my day to know what's good and what's just overpriced sadness in a glass. Bella is COMMITTED to her craft. She literally told me she studies cocktail recipes day and night. Like... how cute is that? Meanwhile I can barely commit to folding my laundry. Then she proceeds to make me the SMOOTHEST, yummiest espresso martini my tastebuds have ever had the privilege of experiencing. One sip and I was astonished, emotional, slightly turned on, all of the above. This woman has the shake hands of a goddess. I think I fell in love a little bit. Also, shoutout to the super friendly man in the Hawaiian shirt and Bob Ross-style beret. He brought immaculate vibes to the whole place and made the experience even better (for the most part). Anyways, the drinks at this place are phenomenal. 1000% give this place a try. And if you get Bella as your bartender, congratulations- you ARE one of God's favorites.

    Great service with a smile! Bella is amazing and made the experience even better. The atmosphere is…read morewelcoming, the vibe is fantastic, and I highly recommend stopping by.

    My friends and I were in Galveston for a girls weekend, and the friend hosting us at her beach…read morehouse came across a TikTok about Pineapple Parlor. We knew we HAD to go. The entrance is so fun and charming. I love how 50s hula music is playing while you enter the bar. The hula girl wallpaper in the bathroom also plays well into the theme. One of my friends was six months pregnant at the time and found the mocktail selection to be really good. We were quite full from dinner but didn't mind the snack offerings. I explained I'm gluten intolerant, and the bartender went through the snack pairings I could have. My drink (Speaky Tiki Old Fashioned) came with the rice, and it was so, so good. We actually plan on coming back this weekend, and I'm salivating at the thought of the crispy rice. Don't skip out on this place! It's one of the best speakeasies I've been to.

    Well, well, well, Pineapple Parlor, aren't you a sight for sore eyes?…read morePineapple Parlor is a tiki speakeasy lounge offshoot off Daiquiri Time Out in historic downtown Galveston (former Red Light District, in fact). I mean what better place for a tiki bar than a beach town? The drinks menu is as extensive as DTO. They've got the tiki standards, Zombie and Painkiller as well as a slew of others. The Kumquat Tot is hands down my favorite. Kumquat, gin, mint, and a few other choice ingredients make this one of the most unique and refreshing cocktails I've ever had. Drinks are served in classic tiki glassware. I dig the vibe here real hard. It's rad. Decor is thatched walls, huts, voodoo, fire, and skulls. Mood lighting enhances the overall theme. The bartenders and servers are super cool. Visiting once just wasn't enough. In the words of The Terminator, "I'll Be Back".
