Mainstreet Coffee & Wine Bar — Restaurant in Bay City

As someone visiting from out of town for a four-week rotation, finding a place with reliable Wi-Fi was critical to completing my residency applications. Luckily, I discovered Mainstreet Coffee and Wine Bar. This true gem has been a community staple since Mrs. Lisa opened it in 2000. Her warmth and hospitality were immediately evident as she kindly let me use the outdoor seating area, which was the perfect spot for focusing on my work.

This café quickly won a special place in my heart—not only because the coffee is exceptional, but because it saved me when my hotel Wi-Fi failed me at a crucial moment. I ended up sitting outside at 1 AM, grateful to be able to submit my applications on time thanks to their fast internet connection.

My visits have been in June, when it's Texas hot outside, but the coffee bar is refreshingly cool. In addition to coffee and tea, this coffee bar also offers beer and wine. They have a nice selection of soups, salads, sandwiches, and delightful looking pastries. I had the Greek salad, it was refreshing and very tasty. They readily accommodated my request to hold the chicken and put the vinaigrette on the side. I should add that the vinaigrette they serve is fabulous, loaded with flavors. I indulged in a chocolate chip cookie and found it to be soft, with the perfect amount of sweetness to it. I will add that I would like to see the iced tea brewed a little stronger. I've had very pleasant experiences here and highly...

Thought the price was very high for four shots of Espresso! Asked the Barista for tall shots? He had no clue what I was talking about. Asked for heavy cream steamed added to my express. He said they only had half n half and would charge extra for the half n half. Asked if pastries were fresh, he said no they were from last week. Thought $3.95 for approximately a week old small very small muffin was exorbitant in price. Overall when I walked of the coffee shop for the price of approximately $11 was not a fair price for the product received. Not to mention I brought my own Coffee mug to put the...
