Port A Beer Hut

We almost didn't go here after reading the reviews regarding racism, but I'm glad we gave them the benefit of the doubt! We walked up with extreme hesitation and a little bit of fear of being discriminated against, but we were pleasantly surprised!! The bartender was very friendly, we had quick service, ambiance was great, clientele was diverse and fun, and drinks were cold and not overpriced. If I visit Port A again, I will absolutely be back!

Don't come here if you want a mixed drink. Two captain and coke $20.00. Bartender not overly friendly either. The tiki bar vibe is nice.

So cozy! I don't want to leave!! Def on island time hanging out. When we went the weather was 80 in July with a breeze. Drinks were yummy!

Me and my wife got into town yesterday and she said we had to go here.So we went here to have a couple of beers and its a pretty cool place.Its just a small little hut bar with music playing in the background.And they have a couple of food items the sell if your hungry.What makes this place a little different is the chairs you sit in.They are actually swings.At least most of them are.Im not sure how good that works if someone has one too many.But overall its a pretty cool laid back place to hang out at,if you just want to kick back and have a couple of beers.Its definitely different.

Unofficially called "The Swing Bar" because they have big swings as chairs! My friend and I stopped there on our way to her RV after dis embarking the ferry. This fun and busy bar was a perfect cool spot to relax. The staff is attentive and served up unique and fun drinks from a full bar. Even one of the owners, Ryan, surprised us with his own delicious drink he concocted for us. I would highly recommend stopping by while in Port Aransas. Grab a swing, relax and put your feet up!

Love this place! Come enjoy a bev and a swing. The staff is nice and the vibe is chill.

We were across the street trying to go to dinner and there was around a 30 minute wait. We heard music here from across the street so decided to come check it out! This place looks like it has a drive through beer portion during the day. It has swings all around the bar and throughout the bar, but has some tables also. They had live music when we were there and the guy was playing songs by whiskey Myers, Stoney larue, Shane smith and the saints, and was a really awesome vibe. We got a Dos Equis dressed and it was really fresh, but they also offer cocktails and other drinks. This place is currently cash only, but they have an atm on site. Good drinks and an awesome vibe. We will definitely add this to our Port A list of must dos!

I saw the negative reviews but decided to check it out anyway when I was in Port A for a couple of days this past weekend, because it was the closest bar to the houses we rented and because they have swings. (I mean - come on - what adult can resist swings and a beer!?) (FYI: As the name implies, this business is a beer hut - aka beer barn - but it also an outdoor bar attached! That's what I am reviewing. We didn't use the beer barn service, but we did stop for a drink this past weekend and enjoyed it outside at the bar!) I found the service to be very good (you order up at one spot at the counter). They made the rounds to every table to let us know it was time for last call, which was nice. They had a good menu, too! Beers (including many local, regional, Texas beers), wines, wine coolers, spirits, and featured cocktails...something for everyone! I'll be honest - a swing at a bar is pretty much my favorite thing. So I didn't need much to be sold on Port A Beer Hut. But I liked everything else about it, too! Good service, good drink options, and swings!? What's not to like?

This place is a must go while in port a my son and I were there in August last year and actually went twice during our visit. Great food great service just a fun place to hang out. I've actually been there a few times.

Do NOT be fooled by the fun atmosphere, cute swings and yummy drinks. Very cool concept BUT the owner (see photo) is an absolute JERK! We've given this place 3 chances and without fail, this guy is rude, condescending and seems put out to be dealing with tourists/out-of-towners (IN A TOURIST TOWN) Are you kidding me dude?!? Get the F off the island if you're so miserable!!! We will NOT be giving this place one more dime...which is a shame because it's a cool little hangout‍Oh well....
