After conquering a 10,000-step walk along the Galveston Seawall bathed in perfect weather, our feet craved a rest and our taste buds, a treat. Brick House Tavern + Tap on Seawall Blvd beckoned, promising happy hour libations and delicious bites. We weren't disappointed! Settling into comfy chairs, we indulged in their humongous pretzel, the warm dough a perfect canvas for their flavorful sauces. Each bite was a symphony of textures and taste. The fish and chips, a portion fit for two, arrived next, the golden-fried fish flaky and light, the chips crispy and satisfying. Every morsel was pure heaven. To quench our thirst, we explored their beverage selection. The Sam Adams Tap was a familiar friend, smooth and refreshing. My wife's adventurous spirit led her to the mango mojito, a tropical explosion of sweetness and mint that transported her to a beach paradise. The friendly service added the final touch to our delightful experience. From the attentive waitstaff to the welcoming atmosphere, Brick House Tavern + Tap embodied the spirit of Galveston hospitality. If you're ever strolling the Seawall and seeking a place to unwind and refuel, Brick House Tavern + Tap deserves a visit. With its delicious food, refreshing drinks, and warm service, it's the perfect recipe for a memorable Galveston evening. We highly recommend it!

Pros: Comfortable place. Dog-friendly (outside patio). Large propane fire in back. Friendly wait staff. Our server was very attentive to our dog and brought out water unasked and when she brought out the plain patty we ordered for our dog, she was very sweet with our dog as was happy he was getting a treat! This made us happy! Cons: I ordered the Philly Cheese with tots and added cheese, grilled jalapeño, and grilled onions to the tots. What I got was 1) a light, but okay grilled split bun stuffed with a chopped up hamburger patty (see pics) and not "Ribeye" as the menu says, onions and jalapeño that were technically grilled, but were still basically raw, and an order of tots smothered in semi-melted cheese, raw jalapeño, and raw, chopped, white onion (not grilled as I had asked). The Voodoo Ranger IPA smelled funky and tasted funky. I let our server know. She said that she would tell the manager. The overall flavor was okay, but definitely not what we ordered. If your menu advertises ribeye as the meat for the sandwich, then I expect shaved ribeye, not a freakin' chopped hamburger! Also, please grill your veggies for longer. The beer taps need to be cleaned, here. Final note. We waited 40 minutes before our food came out. There was not enough people in the place to legitimize that long of a wait. It took us about 15 min to get our drinks once ordered. We left a nice tip for our server. I hope she got it! I won't be back.

Don’t make no sense I came yesterday 07-27-23 at 10:03pm my friend ordered the ribeye and I got the burger 🍔 they took the order at 10:15pm we waited an Hr and a half or 2 for our food didn’t get our food till 11:55pm and they close at 12 rushing us to get out but before that I seem an another customer with his friends they got the food and 15 to 20 minutes the people sitting behind us, get the food and 30 minutes and order the same thing we order so i don’t understand why we were the only Black people there till 11:35pm and they didn’t get no food at all me and my friends were bout to leave the place because we didn’t eat nothing that day and the waitress kept asking us. The food will be coming to fool, becoming and never did any more drinks. We got you no we good we just want our food Get the food real late then ask us to leave so they can close up 👎🏾👎🏾 so rude I won’t be coming back here no more the 1st 2 times it’s was cool I was with my bosses most of them was white but yesterday night all Black of my friends they didn’t want to give the foods I ask the waiter is how many cups is in the back he said more than five, so I don’t understand why I fool was taking so damn long if I could 0 Star 👎🏾👎🏾 Y’all need to do better don’t make no damn sense.

Stopped by for my cheat meal for the week and they had a chilli cheese burger on special for the day. We waited 40 mins in an empty restaurant for the food to come out and which was dropped off at our table looking as the picture shows. No cheese, barely any chili, and missing the side of queso the menu said it included. Our server, kieri, was unapologetic and quite frankly could care less that it came out this way. Normally, I don't complain because I was in the service industry myself for 9+ years and know it isn't always the servers fault. In the case, I don't believe that to be true. I will not be returning, and nor will the two friends that I suggested this place to. In addition, it dawned on me why our waitress looked so familiar. She And I grew up in Texas city and I do believe her and my sister might've exchanged words at some point which I believe effected my service last night. I do not know her personally nor have I ever spoken with her before. I wouldn't typically search for reasons why my service suffered but I can't help but think this isn't a coincidence, especially watching her interact with her other tables.

2019- We are Landry's Select members (I highly recommend signing up because you get a lot of benefits and discounts and $25 free on your birthday) so we tried out this Brick House Tavern + Tap. The burgers were huge and really juicy. The ingredients were really fresh too. Our server was in a noticeably bad mood which was annoying but this review is solely on the atmosphere and food. The inside of this restaurant was really neat and they have options to sit in a chair, couch, or booth. They also have a fireplace and several TV's for watching sports. If you get a booth by the front window you can people-watch or look at the ocean. 2023- we still love brick house tavern, we ordered the pretzel and it was massive and delicious! The ranch is weird to pair with the pretzel but the white queso was good, a little spicy for me but I just avoided the peppers. We also shared the fig & pig flatbread pizza (maybe seasonal?) it was SO good. The pizza had goat cheese, figs, fig jam (or something sweet) and arugula. Delectable. Also bonus is they’re dog friendly!

Wow, where do I start? The hostess staff and waiter were fine, no issues with either. Wondering why the place was empty on a Friday night when there were lines at many other restaurants… well, it’s because of the horrible tasting appetizers, coupled with horrible tasting food, topped off with the disgusting fly problem. My wife asked for a salad with vinaigrette on the side, so we were give a bottle of vinegar? Cesar salad tasked like it was more vinegary than anything. Edible cheese “blocks” with stale chips for the queso. The real problem was the marinara sauce for the cheese blocks and penne pasta. It was ridiculously hot. I mean, spicier than Buffalo wings. How’s that possible? Flies everywhere, couldn’t enjoy the meal at all constantly swatting them away from our food. They won, we gave up… The icing on the cake was the bill, with a 20% tip, it was $187 dollars. I think we all ate 2-3 bites max of the food. Oh, forgot, the fish (mahi mahi) was well over cooked. Anywhooo… I high recommend avoiding this place.
