Amazing atmosphere, warm and cuddly! Food is also off the chainwax. We can't get enough of this place. The crew behind the bar really takes care of you. As does the whole staff! read more

We don't talk about Alvin, TX enough so let me shed some light on this great place. I've had Gordon Street Tavern on my list for awhile for the simple fact that they sell scotch eggs. You just don't see that often and I wanted to try it. The stars aligned and my family and I met up here for a weeknight dinner. Alvin is the true definition of a small town. It is just south of Pearland and life moves a little slower out here. Atleast for time being as it is becoming more developed now. The building itself is old and full of character. Everyone seemed to know each other. The staff was very welcoming and friendly, but service was a tad bit slow at times. My family isn't a big drinking family so we stuck with water and sodas, but they have quite a nice bar program here. They have a really impressive beer selection, a long list of specialty cocktails and lots of wine to choose from. I'm definitely coming back to check that out without the fam. For appetizers, we got an order of the scotch eggs and the Bavarian pretzel sticks. This was my first introduction to scotch eggs and a wonderful one at that. You really can't go wrong with anything wrapped in sausage and deep friend. It was a nice treat and something I will not be sharing next time. The pretzels were also very good. Our waitress suggested some cheese sauce to accompany those. These sticks of goodness were excellent. For my entree, I was stuck on a few items as their menu is pretty extensive. Our waitress said my option for the Pork Milanesa was the way to go, so I did. I've had milanesa at Mexican restaurants, but never in a tavern nor prepared this way. This was hand battered in panko and then topped with a mushroom gravy. It comes with broccoli and mashed potatoes but I substituted the veggie for mac and cheese. This dish was very good and the portions were very generous. Enough for me to have a full second meal minus the sides. The pork was thinly pounded and kept it's crunch even doused in gravy. The gravy was rich and very delicious. My family got a mix of items like the philly cheese steak, flat iron steak salad, tavern salad, and chicken fried steak. For research purposes and for my loyal readers, I tried everything. There wasn't anything that was bad to me. We were full so desserts didn't happen on this trip. Overall, Gordon Street Tavern is a solid spot that I would happily return to if in the area. read more

This place nails the awesome tavern vibes. Our server was really really nice and attentive. We ordered the Tavern Trio, Fried Green Tomatoes, Baja chicken sandwich, and tomato basil soup (soup of the season) We enjoyed everything except the soup. I could swear it was just marinara pizza sauce that looked like thick tomato paste in a cup with strange white foam with something green drizzled on top. I really wanted to like it because I get that soup at any restaurant we try but I do not recommend it here. I also would recommend they place a sign at the door to seat yourself. read more

Stopped in here quickly for lunch with my bestie while we were in Alvin ! We split the Bavarian pretzels with queso and spicy mustard which were phenomenal!!!!!! The bread was so soft and perfect! Then we split the smoked cheddar burger that was like beef, brisket, and rib meat I think? And had a peppered bacon and bbq sauce!!! PROBABLY THE BEST BURGER I HAVE HAD IN A LONG TIME! The meat and bun were outstanding ! Great local find! Would definitely recommend read more

Sweet little tavern we stumbled upon while driving through...glad we did. Nice balance of bar and quaint restaurant. We were seated promptly. We ordered fried mozzarella, super good! Cheese had a nice pull...IYKYK! Sauce served hot...very tasty. Club sandwich was good, very basic sandwich. Kids Mac and cheese was super yummy...and we have a picky kiddo. Fries were nice and crispy. We ordered the wings...hot sauce, very good. Probably the best wings I've had in awhile. They were very good. I ordered a side of broccoli (served with shaved Parmesan I think) and side of Mac & cheese. Sides were great. Service was great...and she had alot of tables so great job! Game was on...nice little gem to stumble upon and have great food. We will definitely be back to try some other yummy dishes. read more

The food at Gordon Street is good. The service is awful. This is the second time in two months I have been there. Both times two different set of friends wanted to go and try it. We live about 30 minutes away. Both times the service was terrible. We waited a long time to get a drink. We ordered two appetizers. Then ordered food. 30 minutes later I had to ask about the appetizers. In 5 minutes they dropped the appetizers off at our table. Queso was kinda cold. 5 minutes after that they brought our meal. We didn't have time to eat enjoy the appetizer. We told them that was not acceptable. They said we are sorry we are busy. Each time I looked the staff was just standing around the bar area. No excuse for bad service. read more

This was my first time here and really enjoyed it! Service was good and the place was really neat. Had the happy hour appetizers and they were tasty. I ordered the white winter cosmo and honestly it was horrible. Will go back but not ordering that drink. read more

My family and I stopped in last Friday as a party of 16. We actually confirmed the reservation as 14 guests but miscounted and the team at Gordon Street accommodated us without a problem. The staff were beyond friendly and the service was exceptional, even with such a wild group. The lemon drop martini was one of the best I've ever had and came super fast, which was much-needed. Great food, drinks and atmosphere. Highly recommend. read more

Love it! The service is good, I love the food, and the ambiance is nice. I recommend that you should go there if you're in Downtown Alvin.

Probably the best food and ambiance in all of Alvin. They have a huge menu with everything you can think of. I was starving when I came here and there was so much to choose from, I couldn't decide! I ended up getting blue chicken sandwich and I did not regret it! This chicken sandwich came with bacon, chicken, mushrooms, onions, and a blue cheese spread that was delicious! It was massive! I ended up taking half of it to go an eating it for dinner the next day. Service was fast on Sunday during lunch hours and also very attentive. We ended up ordering a couple of drinks as well. I had the sangria margarita and was not a fan... They do have a pretty extensive list of cocktails so I am sure I could find something that I like better next time. Overall, I was really not expecting much from this place food wise and was pleasantly surprised! I will be back whenever I am back in town :) read more

Had the Flat Iron Steak Salad today and it was spot on. This meal fit in good with my keto diet as well. Steak was tender and flavorful and salad had just enough olive oil and balsamic as to not soak the salad. read more

What a great spot! This is a cozy tavern in Alvin. The service was very friendly and efficient. We liked the food a lot. The wings were a little sweet, but they were nice and crispy. I'd get them again, but next time, I'd get them with Buffalo sauce. If Gordon Street Tavern was close to my house, I'd definitely be a regular. read more

Listen, this place has ruined cheese sticks for me because I AM OBSESSED. The servers are always on par, quick, attentive and the vibe is immaculate. I've never had a bad thing on the menu, and I'm a frequent visitor. If you want the best bang for your buck this is the only place to go. read more

What a great find in Alvin Tx. Good local spot with great food and drinks and impeccable service (ask for Aubrey). Food was fantastic (fish and chips on point) menu has some fantastic options and the atmosphere was chill with typical restaurant noise levels but enjoyable. A must return for sure. Hope you give it a try as always may all your food journeys be full and topped off! read more

This is our 20th time eating here and it's always consistent and always good. Expect this venue to be loud on a Friday or Saturday night Lots of people lots of talking, lots of TVs Always have had good service read more

Yes. You want to stop!!!! For many reasons I'll list below! That being said, I wouldn't stop for the drug deals claimed in reviews (ridiculous), or I wouldn't bring a scale and weight your "cooked" Waygu patty either. These people should be banned from eating out in my opinion. Atmosphere: 10 out of 10. Small awesome little place with a homey feel to it. I love these style of places. Not huge, but it fits perfectly where it's located. Service: 10 out of 10. I had the Mango whatever margarita and bomb.com!! Bartender was sweet and knowledgeable. Food: 10 of 10. I had the white sauce Alabama wings or whatever and they were amazing even without the wing sauce. Oh and I might mention, they make their own "regular" ranch dressing here too and I literally could have drank the entire bottle lol. Wings were crispy outside and juicy inside. Waygu Burger- was next. It was juicy and soooo amazing. I added grilled jalapeños to it and it was a perfect balance. There are so many options to customize your burger I can't wait to go back and experiment! Basically- just eat here and try the unique items. Enjoy the atmosphere. Leave full and happy :). Nicely done! Sorry I had pictures and think my Kiddos deleted them lol. read more

Jammin Waygu Burger $17 1/2 pound RC Ranch Waygu burger with bacon tomato jam, Provolone cheese & Buffalo onion strings. We cook this burger Medium Rare unless specified differently As with any visit at the tavern it was great! Not the best pic but an idea of it. I enjoyed it ‍ read more

The food was ok, and portion size is definitely huge. But I would rather see smaller portions and bring the price down a bit. Service was friendly when present. It took way too long to get the server's attention for drink refills, check, payment, etc. Patio was nice however I felt rushed by the people standing hovering over me because they wanted an outside table for their dog. It was uncomfortable. read more

Very Great owners and nice and are serving the best food in Alvin Tx, everything on the menu is excellent and i've tried literally everything!!! read more

After kicking my husband's butt at the bowling alley, we were starving and found this place on yelp. Besides being small, it smelt great inside, the server was very friendly, and the food was delicious. I didn't take a photo of my husband's Pulled pork sandwich, but it was fantastic. I had the Buffalo chicken sandwich. The only criticism I have is to include french fries or a side, rather than adding it separately. read more

GST has a fabulous kind of eclectic menu! We were in the area and looking for a great place to have a late lunch. Using Yelp of course, we found this spot. Very big patio area on the way in. We did have a child with us so confirmed it was child friendly, the friendly staff member that greeted us said, well of course! First impression is rustic, sports on the TV's people whooping and hollering for their teams! Service was spot on! We tried several appetizers, but truly one of the main reasons I chose this place was "scotch eggs" and crispy polenta on the menu! We ordered the pretzels, and the goat cheese dip appetizer as well. All of these things were delicious! Who knew about these pretzels!!!! The scotch egg even my 5 year old niece said it was delicious! My partner is the wing wonderer and had to try those after the other apps! The wings had an accompanying dry rub that was spicy delicious. The last but not least was the crispy polenta. I love polenta and it was good, just a tad salty. We never got around to having an entree because we tried so many other things! Perfect place to meet up with a group of friends for Sunday funday football games! Nice clean bathrooms! read more

We have been twice and it was great both times. They have a nice variety of items on their menu - seems to be something for everyone. Seasonal menus are offered as well. Servers do a great job of checking on you often. Though it does have a full bar and televisions it is not too loud for conversation read more
