Great food and entertainment (live music @7pm) if u can get past the smell in the kitchen. You may ask how do u know what it smells like in the kitchen, well that’s we’re the men’s restroom was. If that doesn’t bother you, then you will love the food!!!
We took a drive to Corpus Christi to see the USS Lexington, as Hubby's Dad served in the Navy on a Naval Ship very similar to the Lexington. After touring the ship, it was time for some grub. Corpus has several options for local fare, and it was a tough decision, but we finally decided on Blackbeards. Very neat place. I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the place, and I would go back, but I would order something different. The Tilapia was not the best, and the rice was ok, BUT the desert was yummy! If a place has great desert, I will always give them a second chance! Actually, I will typically give any place a second chance as long as the service was acceptable, and it was. They have many options to choose from, so I would definitely recommend Blackbeards!
Tasty Food for out-of-towners. Kids chicken tenders were AMAZING!! The chicken fried steak was a tie for second with the double bacon cheeseburger and both were great. The fries...meh, over fried or old grease with a tostada after taste. The fried shrimp was good but not very big. We will probably forgive the fries and return and order veggies next time.
I can't understand the negative reviews on here about blackbeards unless they were written by blackbeards competition. When I lived in corpus I ate all u can eat shrp every Saturday might. I had never had fried shrimp as good as they do before and since them. They know how to prepare fried shrimp. They are always fresh and huge in size. If you love fried shrimp the get ur shrimp fix at blackbeards and ignore these negative reviews. I live in dallas now and miss blackbeards everytime I order fried shrimp
Excellent food and environment!. My fiancé had the shrimp, oysters, and fish (tilapia) combo basket and I had the chicken fried steak. Both were outstanding! They have a huge selection of beer as well as a variety of food types! The waitstaff was very friendly and the overall environment was pirate-filled fun. Overall experience here was phenomenal. This will be our new hot spot for Corpus Christi!
We will be back! Everything was great!
It was a nice place and the food was good. I didn't have no problem with the service. I enjoyed it.
I love this place! I've lived in Corpus my whole life & up until recently didn't realize that the food here is actually good! Menu has a WIDE variety of food thats sure to please everyone in your group. Only downside is the seating/tables. They are crowded together, loud, not a whole lot of privacy. Worth it though for the price, selection AND quality.
Awesome!!!!!!! Great burgers Great pasta Great shrimp…For the most part it was amazing except the rice was hard and crunchy i would highly recomend this place:)
Love this place, music was great!!!!
The food is great here. The atmosphere is amazing! Friendly staff, and I even loved the margaritas. It's average prices for food drinks are a little higher than normal but nothing unusual when dealing with family oriented places. Everyone should experience there Is a large variety of food to please all tastes.
Very nice place just down from the USS Lexington. Looks small from the outside, but it is very roomy once inside. Live music was nice (but a bit loud, we had to move to a different table just to hear ourselves). Mahi special and Shrimp basket were both excellent. Service was relatively quick and very friendly. Price is reasonable too. There is a reason this is one of the favorites of locals.
The food and service was excellent. The hot wings were so delicious. Their salad is one of the best I ever ate. We also had the loaded potato skins along with the chips and salsa. The food was hot and fresh. Our server was excellent. This was our first visit.
Popped in for a quick lunch after a tour and couldn’t have picked a better place. Exceptional service, good atmosphere and excellent food prepared to order. Every dish had great flavor and sauce blends. All ingredients fresh as well. Price point per person is under $20. Waitress also offered to go cups of water before we left, which was beyond thoughtful for the summer heat. Free parking lot for restaurant patrons available.
This place was great, had great customer service and food came quick. Super friendly server, but the food was just okay, nothing amazing but still good and I would come back for the chill, relaxing, friendly energy but food was definitely priced too high for the quality/taste
You can tell as soon as you walk inside this place that it has been established a while. It has an old rustic feel like it has been weathered by the harshness of the nearby sea. Our server Victoria was excellent and everyone enjoyed their meals. It's wasn't the best seafood we've ever had but was decently good and reasonably priced. It's worth a visit if you want seafood after a day of visiting the USS Lexington around the corner. Get the Key Lime pie... It was really good!
I've been wanting to go for a while and finally got a chance. We weren't disappointed. I would have liked to meet the Poltergeist, but the food did not disappoint! I got the Diablo Shrimp Pasta dish. I wouldn't call it spicy, but it had good flavors. My husband got the fried fish and onion rings. They were amazing! And the seafood queso was also great

Cute, cozy, little gem on the north side of Corpus Christi, TX with great food, drinks, and live entertainment.
The restaurant was clean and decorated with a beachy pirate theme. The service was EXCELLENT - which was a nice surprise. I didn't expect the service to be good being in a touristy area.
The food was fresh, hot, and tasty! We statered off with the seafood queso. Hubby got a cold beer, and I got a Pina colada that was really good. I highly recommend the queso it was soooo good!!!! I had the seafood platter, and hubby had the shrimp poor boy. Hubby enjoyed his poor boy, and of course, I had a bite, so I could tell you about it. It had lettuce, tomatoes, fried shrimp, and mayo on a sourdough bun. It was so good and fresh. I think I will get that on our next visit. I had the seafood platter, which I didn't finish - it was so much food. It had shrimp, oysters, fish, hush puppies, coleslaw, and fries. Everything was seasoned and fried to perfection- lightly golden crust. The seafood was excellent!

I think everyone should have a Blackbeard's on the bay experience. We will have many more meals here.
The decor is a bit all over the place. The food is okay. The seafood queso wasn’t quite all the way melted and didn’t come out until the rest of our dinner came out. Our server was nice and it was her birthday yesterday. She did great! Very friendly. Chips and salsa were given to us and they were great! Burgers were wonderful… like mine medium and it came out that way! (Yea!) coconut Mayo was amazing here… my kids loved their burgers. Onion rings were amazing and big… My husband ordered seafood basket with 3 choices… he said shrimp was okay and fried fish was meh. Overall not bad…
Food was amazing!! For appetizer we got the 5 count jalapeño hush puppies and they came with tasty tartar sauce. Within minutes all 5 were gone and everyone wanted more they were absolutely fantastic! Next time we're going to try the fried pickles.
As for our entrées, We got the 10pc fried butterfly shrimp basket with fries and it was done amazingly. We got the fried chicken sandwich with fries too it was miles better than a popeyes chicken sandwich. Also, on top there was a stamp of a skull which was cool. Then last we got the catfish basket with fries and it was absolutely delicious especially with the fresh lemon juice on top. The fries on all of our plates were freshly fried and hot!
Overall, we would return to try out more on the menu. On and extra note there was live music which added to the ambiance. The service was also fast and our server checked on us often.
