For a bar, they certainly don't know their laws regarding sales. Refused to sell to my wife because she had a temporary paper ID provided by the DMV. When pressed, the bartender said she wasn't comfortable selling to my wife because she herself had made fake IDs to get alcohol when she was underage. The simple fact that this place employs delinquents does not mean the law changes. Which, under TABC guidelines very clearly states that a person of age (both/either of us, ) could buy for their spouse regardless of whether or not the other person is of age. Won't be coming back, and I certainly hope that the GM (who was contacted by the manager on duty,) and the aforementioned manager both look through actual TABC guidelines before long. For a place that has been frequently raided, you certainly have not done your homework, so allow me to do it for you.
Sec. 106.06. PURCHASE OF ALCOHOL FOR A MINOR; FURNISHING ALCOHOL TO A MINOR ... (b) A person may purchase an alcoholic beverage for or give an alcoholic beverage to a minor if he is the minor's adult parent, guardian, or spouse, or an adult in whose custody the minor has been committed by a court, and he is visibly present when the minor possesses or consumes the alcoholic beverage.
With ALL of this said, allow me to reiterate the point of my original statement: we are...
Read moreOkay - I think the general rules need to be established, as well as acknowledgment of the fact that we were there after church on Sunday. Deacon Baldy's, by my best estimate, is the bar area itself. The tenders kept the lines moving, and there was typically a line. I wish I'd counted the beers advertised; there must've been close to 50, and though I'm a simple, Bud Light kind of beer drinker, it was a great view! So, now the food...
There were 5 different trailers there, and 4 were open. Remember, it was a Sunday. Trailer 1 was BBQ, "BBQ Godfather" I think - It was closed. That kind of hurt my heart. Number 2 was an Asian place that I don't recall the name of, but it looked like mostly messy food, for a messy eater such as me - I've got menu pics for clarification. Number 3 was a crawfish truck - my neices & family seemed to like them, but sadly, I did not partake. Number 4 trailer was Uncle Tony's Burgers - my wife and MiL had their food and were raving about it. Number 5 was my pick - "Raise Pizza & Eats" and where I got my pizza from. Simple order done extremely well - as much Peperoni as they felt would work, followed by enough cheese to make it nearly impossible to pull apart. They succeeded! The crust was a little light, but expected with the amount of toppings. All in all, I think it would be a solid 9...
Read moreThis place is an awesome hang out spot, especially for large groups. It's a little hard to see as you are driving down 1488, the main pavilion isn't next to the road, and the food trucks are kinda hidden off to the side. There is a small sign and the directions on Google are spot on.
The beer selection is great and the staff friendly enough. We were in a big group and got food from several of the trucks and everyone liked what they got. I personally got some tacos and they were really good. This place is a little off the path for me otherwise I could easily find myself hanging out here after work or on a day off. A few cons would be outdoor seating only, and thus occasional flies flying around (for me this isn't an issue, but for non outdoors types it might be). They do have huge fans that help with them and the heat. When we were here it was quite warm, but the shade and fans made it enjoyable.
There were several families here, and I think it's a fantastic option for large groups. You have big tables, a area for kids to play, a variety of food that will meet anyone's taste buds, and a great beer selection.
I definitely recommend this place if you...
