The Annex

This place is a hidden gem, and the owners are such beautiful people. We always love the vibe. The music and the drinks never let you down. I normally stop in for meetings, and the last time we were here was for an event my business was sponsoring. It was an amazing night. Definitely must give it a try and see what our downtown Corpus Christi community is all about.

Excellent staff. I had the honor of meeting the owner and management. What an elegant and assertive person who knows the needs of her clientele. I have represented several establishments and I can say the Annex is a welcoming and cordial environment. The drinks were complimented as being excellent and tasty. The band was amazing and the staff made all my guests feel at home. I strongly recommend a party or gathering at this fine establishment any time. 5 stars.

A group of 8 of us came into the establishment at around 7pm after attending the veterans meal and activities across the street. At 9:30pm we were told we could no longer be served because of "the amount of time" we had been there. The group had all only had maybe 2 beers at this point. We were all paying customers , most veterans in our 50’s. When asked what exactly the time limit in the establishment to drink was, since we had only been there about 2 hours and were paying customers. The waitress said we had been there too long. I feel that if there is a time limit on how long you can be in the establishment it needs to be posted. Maybe a time clock for your paying customers? We, as a group, have never heard of any such policy in any other establishment. As we all were exiting the establishment the waitress in a maroon dress said "have a good night and don’t come back"

The bartender was rude and made us feel unwelcome. We stopped in for one drink while celebrating a birthday during a girls’ night out. There were hardly any customers, yet we were told we were being too loud and disturbing others. When we politely asked one of the two men at the bar if we were bothering him, the bartender told us not to involve other customers. Overall, it was an uncomfortable experience. Do not go here if you’re looking to laugh and have a good time.

Sydney makes the BEST espresso Martini!! It’s always made with the best intentions and LOVE!! 10/10 recommended <3

The drinks are tasty, the bartenders are friendly and the owners are amazing! What more could you need? Annex is also very clean with upper scale atmosphere and cocktails but a down-home, hanging-at-your-friend’s-house vibe. They have fun events throughout the month like pop culture trivia, ping-pong, and Ginny’s Little Longhorn Saloon-inspired chicken shit bingo. They are people, family and pet friendly. My golden retriever loves visiting and ordering head scratches and ice. She gets mad when we leave.

I joined friends to play chicken shiz bingo for the first time. It was a lot of fun with friendly patrons and the cocktails were perfection.
