We came on July 3rd at roughly 11am and it was BUSY but we were sat as a table of 2 within 10 minutes. I ordered the sirloin and eggs and my wife ordered the Andy's platter or something like that. We devoured our meals, they were so yummm and the waitresses were so kind and attentive! I can't wait to take my mother in law here when she's in town next week. Thank you for the lovely experience and delicious food!! It's our new best breakfast spot!!

Soup was bland tasted like chunks of chicken and raw flour with no flavoring in the thick soup custard like texture. The steak was thin and long and dried out after a quick sear on the grill. Fried shrimp was decent and the best part of the meal. No has slipped in quality over the years. Very sad for such an institution of the city.

I was recommended to try Hester's by a co-worker while I was in Corpus, and I and really glad I…read moregave it a try! I stopped in for brunch on a Saturday morning and was really surprised by the crowds, and the atmosphere of the restaurant. It reminded a lot of B Matthew's in Savannah, which if you know, is a good thing! I initially went for the croissants based on the recommendation, but ordered the Biscuits with Gravy in addition to a loaf of sourdough, a croissant, and a few back to school theme cookies to bring onto the kids! The biscuits and gravy was phenomenal, and I really liked how they added scrambled eggs to top them. This is something I've never seen before and the result was great! As far as the bakery items (croissant, sourdough, and cookies) I feel like my review won't do them justice because they weren't eaten until I got home a few days later. Bottom line, I will be stopping in at Hester's every time I visit Corpus going forward. A definitely must try!

I decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad I did! The café is absolutely charming with a bright, cozy vibe that makes you want to sit back and enjoy your morning. I ordered a coffee, the French toast, and everything tasted so good, fresh and was made with care. It was one of those breakfasts that simply puts you in a good mood. Even though the café was busy, the staff never seemed rushed. They were kind, welcoming, and made everyone feel taken care of. If you're in Corpus Christi, I'd definitely recommend stopping by for breakfast. Good food, great coffee, and a lovely atmosphere--I know I'll be back the next time I'm in town.

About 12 min we got seated with a basket of warm crunchy hush puppies. That is the way to a woman's heart! I knew I wanted catfish for days I been craving fish and chips.. they have a PICK 2 - choices are catfish, frog legs, shrimp , chicken tenders.. plus fries, red beans and rice AND coleslaw. My son ordered the same but he also got a cup the jambalaya- came with bread and honestly we wish we had each ordered a bowl of that! It was so full of flavor and pieces of shrimp and fish almost beat my Aunt Jill's from Louisiana- ALMOST! When our plates came we could not believe the amount of food for the price. You get all the fixins! Butter, lemon, tartar sauce and cocktail sauce. You don't have to ask for a thing! Our waitress was amazing!! All around the entire experience was 10/10!! Next time I'm trying to frog legs! Side note: Sunday is their busiest day from 11am-4pm (per the waitresses we asked) . They do have lunch specials Monday - Friday.
