Great place to get some good drinks, relax, and unwind, it's that kind of vibe. The lights are low and the music is nice. They also have an outdoor patio where you can sit when the weather permits. They're known for their cocktails which are $6 between 5 & 8. The wine pairs nicely with the shareable charcuterie board, definitely worth it. And of you drink beer they have that too. They sell soups and salads, sandwiches, and breakfast that they serve from 9-3. We ordered the breakfast bowl and breakfast plate. They were both pretty good. The touch of microgreens on top of my bowl was a pleasant surprise. I love microgreens and they were fresh. The server was very helpful and recommended the iced coconut vanilla latte that I loved so much I ordered another one to go. read more

The cocktail experience is so fabulous. This is essence of Galveston and its unique culture. The cocktails are very well balanced and the service is super friendly! There a fantastic seating options which make Fonda relaxing visit. read more

MarMo Cafe & Lounge - Espresso martini - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Galveston, Texas

The people were out for smash burger Monday! It was bit chilly out tonight, but they had the outdoor heat lamps on and space tented to block the wind since there's limited seating instead. Burger don't start til 6 pm but you can order with your drink to be queued up. I was hesitant to get the tots because last time they weren't cooked enough but my friends were cooked way better this time. I opted for the safe route and got chips. Order at the bar and they'll give you a buzzer to come back for your food. Drinks are made to order nd receive when you order. For it being a busier than I expected, everything was pretty quick. read more

What a perfect lunch spot! My coworker & I walked over for the chicken sandwich and it didn't disappoint. The warm Brie and crisp apple slices with a ton of chicken. Delish! Service was nice. It's counter service and there wasn't a line. We sat outside and enjoyed the quiet, as there were a few groups inside around the bar. read more

MarMo Cafe & Lounge - Slow Roasted Chicken Sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Galveston, Texas

All these years, I had no idea that Marmo carried a cafe title to its name. I've walked past their elegant exterior countless times and assumed they were solely an upscale cocktail bar. Their participation in serving free drinks during Galveston's annual Art Walk only reinforced that belief for me. I recently DoorDashed on a busy interview day since I needed a semi-healthy option and had a gift card. Their menu is in fact, not crappy bar food in the slightest. The air fried chicken sandwich checks all the boxes needed for a 5 star rating. It's big, fairly priced ($12 if ordering directly from the restaurant), and contains a grocery list of ingredients (aioli, basil pesto, mozzarella, etc) that turn the sandwich into a complex array of savory freshness. I also ordered their breakfast taco; it doesn't stand out in any spectacular way, but it only costs a measly $1.50 (extra if adding meat or avocado) for a gigantic portion. I regret not finding out about this place sooner. Given how luxurious Marmo looks on the outside, you'd likely assume that whatever they're serving is too rich for your blood on a mundane weekday afternoon. However, their menu proves quite the contrary and deserves a glance if you're passing by. read more

Had always considered MarMo more of a bar and was thoroughly impressed by their daytime offerings! Service was quick and friendly. Plenty of fun coffee flavors to be enjoyed on the outdoor patio space; the butterbeer latte is a great sweet treat. I actually really enjoyed the breakfast taco which was extremely affordable and quite sizeable. Will be coming back! read more

Great food and Drinks. Service is always top notch... it's a great place to hang with friends.

MarMo is an interesting place and it's only open 3 hours a day from 9am-12pm so it can be tough to visit! However it was perfect for us, having just disembarked a cruise ship and needing a place to hang out before our late flight from Houston. The bartender was very friendly and gave us some recommendations on what to do in the area. Food looked amazing although we only had some drinks and coffees. My mimosa was also STRONG! Highly recommend! read more

MarMo Cafe & Lounge - Mint Julep for Derby Day! GREAT! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Galveston, Texas

5:24:2025 Stopped here for breakfast after a Segway tour on the Strand. Small inside seating area. Lots of seating outside. No free parking. Church street has feee parking and is only 2 blocks away. Menu is small with plenty of options s for us. Breakfast tacos served with salsa and the avocado toast (add egg) were delicious. Very Reasonable prices for tourist city. Order and pay at the bar. We were immediately greeted and server was friendly and helpful when ordering. Very nice relaxed laid back vibe in the morning. It's like Cheers Everyone knows the Locals here. Also some tourists here too. Great spot come check it out. read more

MarMo Cafe & Lounge is a beautiful drinking new drinking establishment in Galveston. This bar brings more of an elegant cocktail bar vibe to the strand that you cannot find at many other bars. Because Yelp decided to delete my last review of this place, I will be reassessing my review of MarMo today. Previously, I visited during the holidays, where the venue was decorated beautifully with lights and wrapping paper. Today, it's less of a spectacular view, but still very relaxed and intimate. The interior has nice floral wallpaper and a beautiful feathery mural. The outside patio is also very inviting, with fire pits and gazebos to lounge under. They also have a pretty sick waterfall and modern art sculptures throughout the patio. It's quite the immersive experience, even without the holiday decorations. The service can be a bit slow, but the cocktails are mixed perfectly and presented with class by the colorfully-dressed mixologists. I did have to wait in line for about 15 minutes today, and once I ordered my drink took another 3 or so minutes to get made. However, my espresso martini I ordered was delicious and the presentation was spectacular. It was a dark and bitter flavor with a slight sweetness in the background. It was served with 3 coffee beans placed in the middle, in the classic espresso martini style. It was the perfect drink to start my night! Overall, MarMo is a great new addition to the Galveston nightlife. I am disappointed that my last review was deleted because I can't remember exactly what I experienced here originally, but I'm sure it was just as good, if not better. I'm giving MarMo 16/20 Freys, losing points mostly based off of service time. FREY OUT! read more

Damn fine cocktails, friendly service, great vibe, and so close to my home. Shockingly, I am not a barfly here... But I could be! The food is definitely not shabby either. My first dish here was the ubiquitous avocado toast, but theirs is over the top good. Barbecued jackfruit pizza for the vegetarian in your group is so tasty that the meaty people will like it. There's also a tomato basil soup with grilled cheese that will take you back to a childhood you probably never had. Final thought: so worth it! read more

I finally got here and stupidly didn't take any photos! *smacks head* We had a wonderful little time though. It was not busy at all on a Monday evening which was perfect for us. It's very cozy inside and out. I'm really looking forward to a cooler night that can be spent outside by their fires. We had gimlets that were so tasty and very refreshing. Great hot day cocktail! Jesse was our bartender and he was marvelous. Their snacks look awesome but we were hungry for a big dinner and this isn't the place for that if that's what you're after. Get drinks and an app first here then hop to another place! read more

Ordered here for lunch one day and I really enjoyed my sandwich. I ordered the chicken sandwich but substituted the meat for eggplant. My only complaint is that the breading on the fried eggplant was a little too soft and the vinaigrette that was on the sandwich made it soggy. I will ask for it on the side next time. I like that this restaurant offers meatless options and the prices are very reasonable. My sandwich with chips was about $13 while other places in the area charge almost $20 for the same thing. I look forward to going back again soon to try something else. read more

Stopped by after dinner and was treating to an amazing fire place on a slightly chilly day. The happy hour goes nice and late which is perfect for an a post dinner drink. We really wanted to get some food, but we were just too full from dinner, so we ordered a gimlet and an old fashioned. I was a little bit put off by having multiple ice cubes in my old fashioned, instead of one big ice cube. However, both drinks were made well and tasted delicious. A beautiful fire on a beautiful chilly night makes this place the spot to be at if you're trying to stop in for a drink. read more

Great drinks and vibes! Was here for a school event and enjoyed the ambiance. The music that they played was especially good - lots of indie pop and rock. The samplers of flatbreads were delicious and I appreciated how the staff accommodated my mocktail request. They made me an orange blossom, which tasted like a fizzy orange dreamsicle in drink form. Would highly recommend hosting events here or stopping by to try their cafe. read more

Nice cafe, convenient for a quick lunch. They have a surprisingly nice selection of bourbon too. Lots of Weller varieties and Stagg (previously known as 'Jr').

Don't be afraid to climb the steps to check out this establishment, I waited too long! read more

Several other bartenders recommended this place ( Pirate Island bar & Social Tap) the building looks like an old bank. Walked in and was surprised that someone would describe this place as classy. There was a guy at the bar practically yelling while talking so we went outside. Ordered two drinks, and the charcuterie board. Drinks were not great, old fashioned was super syrupy. Charcuterie board had one slice of toasted bread and several piles of meat, a few slices pickles and mustard. Super disappointed in a 20 board with one slice of white toast. The best part though was having these massive wood roaches crawl on every seat and table. Several were on empty drinks that were left outside. I don't get the hype at all. read more

Recommended by one of our favorite breweries in Galvestion as a good place for a cocktail. Fun experience.

This place is charming and so inviting. My husband and I came for a trip to Galveston and we visited this place twice while we were here. It has such a fun, groovy vibe and the music is on point. We met the owner who is just absolutely lovely. She provided us a recommendation to come for the art walk the following day and being from out of town it was nice to be given insight on events happening in town. When we travel to Galveston again we will definitely stop in for a lemon drop or a Mai Tai cocktail, also the food is incredible too! read more
