Located in the heart of Lubbock, Good Line is going to be the best beer you can get in West Texas…read moreand can go toe to toe with competitors in Austin or Dallas any day of the week. Good Line publicly opened its doors in mid-2022, and after I turned 21 that November, I immediately found myself becoming a regular. Through my final two years of college, I would always come to get some easy school work done, work on final projects, grab some beers with my friends, and come to their fun events like Oktoberfest, 4th of July, their anniversary parties, Cinco De Mayo with Jiminez, Lager Jam West, and more. From the owners Chris and Shawn to their staff like Eli and others, they are all very charming and great people to talk to. They all know their stuff when it comes to beer, so they can guide people who only know Miller Lite and Blue Moon as well as those with a more expansive palate, making sure each person gets the right beer for themselves. I always found myself trying new beers and styles done exceptionally well by Good Line that I may have never tried if not for their location existing. Some of my favorites they have served are Range Life, Parklife, which I miss since it has not made a return in some time, Floating in Space, These Pretzels, Wish I Was A Baller, All Night Candlelight, Specifics On The General, and Old Man Marley, to name a few. They also have a killer Cherry Seltzer and a pretty good wine based margarita. Their cheaper light beer, Friendo, is another great choice for people who are not looking for crazy craft beer but can still appreciate quality. There is plenty to do at Good Line, from watching major sporting events to joining the Monday night run club, participating in their book club, or just chopping it up with other Lubbock residents. It feels like a third space for a very specific kind of person. A person that loves a good beer but does not get plastered. A person that loves a good conversation on music with someone they have never met before. It is always a great time at Good Line, and I have met some really great people and regulars just from the times I have visited. I do not live in Lubbock anymore after graduating, but every time I visit, I always make a stop once or twice because it is always worth my time. God bless the Line. Come by sometime and experience the highest level of beer and comfort. RIYL: Good craft beer in the heart of Lubbock.

Chill atmosphere, fun merch, great marketing on their labels and beer names, food trucks several days a week and trivia once a week. This is my new Go-To place for IPA (in addition to Two Docs)

We arrived early evening so there was plenty of seating. Our server was Megan. She was excellent. We started off with the sidewinders - shrimp and cheese stuffed in a jalapeno and fried. They were tasty. We also ordered the steak tip salad and went old school with the chopped steak. All were delicious. I even enjoyed one of their home brews - Windmill Wheat. We were too stuffed for dessert, so we ordered a bread pudding to go... Oh, my deliciousness - I had the bread pudding later that night, I wish we had ordered two. Highly recommend it!!! Great place to eat, fun ambiance, good food, and if you're lucky, you'll get Megan as your server. We'll definitely be back!

It was fantastic and obviously a handmade patty. It was cooked perfectly and had wonderful flavor. The seasoned fries were cooked to perfection, but I like mine soft and not crunchy. Overall, a fantastic experience.

If you're lucky, one of the bouncers might let you in through the fake line if you slip them a cheap $100 bill. Seriously though, the line is just for show. If you truly want to go in, either go day drinking there or pay the $25 cover for the other line. Make sure you don't talk too much in the line either, because Officer Jody Barnes will boot you out of line if you sigh too loudly. This happened to two guys in line. One complained and the other breathed too loudly (they were not affiliated, but Barnes thought so). Why he gets paid with tax dollars to do the bidding of a private business is beyond me, but hey, whatever it takes to feel like a man right?

Last night, I ordered a pizza (kind of the "big deal" of the meal), a salad and dessert. I paid $30. Uber driver delivers a salad and dessert - maybe 1/2 the cost of my meal.

Uber reimbursed me $2. I like Parry's food, but DO NOT order to be delivered - they don't have their own delivery people and you will be screwed out of your money AND your food!!!
