JB's German Restaurant and Bakery

Nice little morning find. Looking for a good breakfast and happened upon JB's German Restaurant. Nice and quiet this morning and perfect chance to relax, enjoy some coffee and eat a delicious breakfast. I ordered up the chef omelette which was pretty yummy and filling. They started me off with a couple sweets which were also great. I didn't partake in any baked goods but the bakery selection looked great. Next time!

I've seen this restaurant a couple times when in Corpus, but it was closed every time we went by - this was perfect timing. They brought us some samplings of the different pastries they offer and all were delicious and amazing. Our main entrées were typical breakfast plates eggs over easy German schnitzel, homestyle potatoes, all very good and reasonably priced. This is in my must visit column when I go to the beach.

Once you open the door, it's pure heaven. I highly recommend the strudels and pastries. I had the Reuben with turkey. It was soooo good. The guy at the counter was very quiet yet helpful. The entire place gives a Germany vibe.

Good German food for a fantastic price! JB's is located on Staples and Everhart next to the ER and Walgreens. There is a bakery inside with lots of variety. You will find fresh baked bread, pretzels, quiche, kolaches, and an assortment of German pastries and sweets. I have tried the pretzel buns and apple custard pastry and they were both good. We have come here twice now and the food has been consistent. Here is what we ordered:Swiss Schnitzel with Spaetzle - Generous sized fried pork schnitzel smothered in gravy and swiss cheese. The side of spaetzle is a German dumpling/pasta. Both are tasty and very filling. Jager Schnitzel with Bratkartoffeln - Another large pork schnitzel, this one covered in mushroom gravy and a side of German style "hashbrowns" that had bacon with it. Only problem with both schnitzels was the fryer oil aftertaste. The oil was much too dark and could be tasted. Bratwurst in a Bun - One bratwurst sliced in half served on a baguette bun with mustard. Taste good but the bratwurst seems pretty small for the $6. The decor is outdated and could use a face lift. Our server was great but very busy due to lack of workers.The prices are great and it is hard to find an authentic German restaurant priced affordably. Very nice mom and pop shop.

Great find for breakfast. I got the breakfast sampler and everything was great! Great service. Even received 3 complimentary pieces of struedel. We got the raspberry and blueberry struedel to go for later.

Went to corpus this past weekend and we stopped in for lunch. Unfortunately their credit card machine had just gone down so it was cash only. I had $7 cash and the guy kindly gave us 2 pastries for $7. An apple strudel and a chocolate croissant. The apple strudel was incredible, thinly sliced apples in a cinnamon buttery soft pastry. We adored it, the chocolate croissant was also very good! Well definitely stop in for lunch the next time we're in town

We decided to pick up some good German pastries and have lunch at this little restaurant. Unfortunately their business has been impacted by the reworking of Everhart at Staples, but keep your patience as you wind through the construction because it is worth the wait. The restaurant is large, clean and airy with lots of strudel, cookies, cakes, pies, pastries, rolls and breads displayed for sale. We sat at a large table and studied the expansive menu for breakfast and lunch. Breakfast is served all day (restaurant closes at 2:00). We ordered the daily special of six little bratwurst on sauerkraut and jagerschnitzel with mushroom gravy, red cabbage and spatzle noodles. Yum! Everything was tasty and well-prepared. We purchased several baked items on the way out. Service was friendly and accommodating. We will be back!!!

Five stars for family owned in most unique category. Real german bakery & restaurant in South Texas where tacos and BBQ reign supreme. This bakery / restaurant serves good breakfast / lunch. Big bonus that you can pick up bakery treats and bread on the way out. Operating a family owned bakery and restaurant is a ton of work. Early days, late nights, no time off. Kudos to the family and their team for making this happen. Good family owned restaurants are so much work, they rarely last too long. It's just very hard to keep the pace. It looks like this has been going for many years, congrats.I don't have much experience with german food. Everything I had was very good and I will be back next time I am in CC.

Pulled onto the parking lot and saw no cars. Looked inside and saw no one eating breakfast. It was the time change weekend. Immediately suspect. Thought maybe they were closed on Sundays. Felt adventurous, so I went in. Not disappointed. In fact, was quite impressed! Had the pfannkuchen with apples and a side of scrambled eggs. A grand slam home run! Will definitely be back when I'm in the area to try the schnitzel. Moral of the story? Don't judge a place by an empty parking lot and no diners inside.

JB's German Restaurant and Bakery is DEEELICIOUS! In fact, it was so good we had to come back the next day to try more items on the menu as we were leaving Corpus that day. What a gem of a find! The first day we came for breakfast, and got the Farmers breakfast and German Burrito. The German Burrito is a German crepe (pfannkuchen) wrapped around an egg omelet and bratwurst. It was so so good and a perfect combination! Our toddler loved it as well. By the time we ate our food it was almost 10:30am, and since I was still a bit hungry they let me order from the lunch menu. I got the schnitzel and we all loved it. Tender, moist, with a crispy breaded exterior. So good! In fact, it was the only thing that my husband wanted when we returned the next day.On day two we got the lunch sampler that comes with schnitzel, bratwurst, German meatball, fleischkase (German deli meat), and spatzle. Everything was super delicious as well! The German meatball tastes like a juicy burger patty, and fleischkase reminds me of a spam with a soft, tender texture. I also got the Saturday special, which was roasted pork (schweinebraten). The gravy was delicious, but the roast pork was really really dry. This was probably the worse item of our meal, but it was still edible.We also got a cowboy strudel from the bakery and we ate the entire thing despite it being such a huge pastry. It contained cheese, bacon, beans, and sausage. Yum! They also had a huge assortment of other saliva-inducing pastries that we unfortunately didn't have enough stomach for. I'm super jealous as I write this review of all the Corpus Residents who get to frequent this place! Highly recommend!
