I’ll tell you what this place was underrated and the chicken fried steak looks huge. The chili cheese Coney hotdog was solid competing with the good hotdogs of the island. If you wanna beat the crowd get there about before 12 o’clock noon.

A little run down outside and in.
Bartender kind of rubbed me the wrong way.
We got the chili dogs and the bun was fresh baked I think not a store bun and it was soft, the chili was homemade but very light on the dog so left the whole thing a little dry, the hot dog was a thick style jumbo style. Tater tots were crispy. Hot dogs were huge, could definitely spilt one between two people that aren’t starving.

Great place! Food was great. I had the largest Coney chile cheese hot dog I’ve ever seen. The beer was cold and the server was kind and funny. I will definitely put this place on my favorite list.

Now I couldn’t tell ya what I ordered or if it was good or not, but I had a blast! I was on the haunted ghost pub crawl and this was one of the ending pubs! I remember the dollars tapped all over the place and was so happy to do one myself!

1980’s stylish sports bar. I’m West End Campeche Islander found new hang out spot. This place has a cheeseburger that gives Mel’s Diner competition and that’s hard to do. They got a chili dog that has triple the chili than Sonic. Quieter place to watch Astros or Houston Rockets. They got a baked potato if you just trying to chill and avoid all the huge tourist crowd. Got 3 huge plates & 3 drinks all for $50 bucks. That’s a deal nowadays!

Great little hole in the wall we’re glad we didn’t miss out on. Huge portions, great service and nice atmosphere. Classic little bar that has restaurant quality food. They made a couple Canadians very happy! We’ll be back thanks guys!

Burger with avocado is awesome and is easily in the top 5 Galveston burgers, the southwest egg roll is pretty good but the ribeye steak special is very gristly so you should skip that.

Back again this week for the Italian. Excellent food service. Last time was a very good Rueben sandwich with Tater tots…

Holy moly frijoles y’all, you GOTTA stop here for the coldest beer on the island! Been in here several times & never left hungry either. Nachos a mile high on the plate, Ruben sandwhich thick as your arm, hamburgers as big as your face! And did I mention the beer is so dang cold you’ll wanna glove to hold it!
Last time I went Cindy was the tender & she was so nice & funny, gave a little history about the bar too. Press Box is only a couple blocks from The Strand & the drinks are half the price as the bars there, food…a quarter of those prices. Step off the fancy strand a few blocks, you won’t regret it.
UPDATE: Google asked me to update my previous review and honestly, I wouldn’t change a thing. Been here several times since that review. I work three blocks from here so my coworkers and I come here for drinks and eats about once a month.
Y’all, just get yourselves here, get off the fancy-shmancy Strand and have some cold beer, tall shots, greasy food, served with a smile, laugh, and good attitude.
