Had a great time seeing art in this café.. enjoyed a few beer flights and the barista had great suggestions for our first visit to the island. We happened to be there during an art walk day, had a lot of fun exploring the art in near by stores. The pizza was good.. the coffee could be better.

A true neighborhood bar with a great vibe. Our bartender was hilariously friendly and professional and whipped us up some amazing drinks. PRO TIP: Get the candied hibiscus with sake, trust me. Its called Spooky Hibiscus.

There are a few reasons MOD Coffeehouse has a line outside versus this place. One of them being customer service. This may be the only place on the island where you get lukewarm chai and cold customer service in 80°F weather in October. Maybe the chai teas were intentionally lukewarm because there werent anymore insulator sleeves? Maybe rude service because we interrupted her convo with her bff?4 ⭐s for the community space and artwork

Love this place I love going here between bars, to get myself a cup of coffee and I love how you can get a high craft beer or if youre into wines they have a great wine selection. The art gallery is always changing with new artist almost every week in this is also a spot that you can stop have a drink your kids can enjoy the place and I would always suggest the Katies milkshake

The server with dyed hair and gauges was extremely rude. I was asking her for the code of the bathroom and without even finishing my sentence, she responded with an attitude, “the code is 3041. Did you get that? 3…0…4…1….” She made me feel unwelcome as well as the group of friends I was with. I’m not one to complain but when it comes to treating people with respect, she completely lacked that. We were planning on staying for a few drinks but decided to take our business elsewhere. It says they are LGBTQIA*+ friendly but I did not feel that way. NEVER AGAIN!

Went in a Saturday night. They had a art event going on upstairs. It was busy & a fun time. Had some good coffee drinks. Ordered a slice of pizza but it came out a little soggy. Overall it was a good time.

Excellent decor and product. The green tea macha, iced vanilla latte, and tumeric and ginger tea were all very good at a great price. Other patrons were friendly.

Customer service was horrible. We stopped by today around 2/3 pm for a drink. The bartender did not greet us. We sat at the bar and she said nothing still. Once I found a menu myself my sister and I each ordered one drink and she SPOKE! ...She asked if we wanted to close out! Another set of ladies walked in and same thing. They walked straight back out. We would have done the same if we hadnt been so thirsty!

The bartender with short hair and gauges was rude af. I asked if I can get the code for the restroom. Without finishing my sentence, she interrupts me with a loud and sarcastic voice, 30...41. 30! 41! It was so unnecessary how she approached the situation. It made me uncomfortable to stay after.

Best service I have ever received. Wonderful IPAs and a chillax atmosphere. Good pizza too

Shannon is definitely a true hospitality professional. I really appreciate her making me feel welcome there as well as the amazing accommodations with the pizza and drink selections. Thank you for everything this weekend!

Might be a good place for locals, but terrible if not from here. RUDE!!! No Southern hospitality here.

Very unique and tasteful selection of everything here. Awesome staff! They keep a variety of beer and wine, as well as a great coffee and tea menu. Pizza too! And a cool selection of cold bottled soft drinks and snacks. Perfect place to visit on your way to or from strand.

I like this spot. The floor to ceiling windows make for some great natural lighting. Friendly and outgoing staff.

Great feel to this place. Very welcoming & relaxed. The Proletariat is located off the Strand. And thats a good thing.Its calmer in here. You dont feel as rushed.Great selection of beers, wine & they have an espresso machine.The music & art is a great touch.

The space was actually really nice and seemed like a cool place to hang out and drink but the bartender was very short with me and my group, someone asked for the code to the bathroom and she became upset when he asked he to repeat herself, it made me feel unsafe and unwanted.

Worst experience EVER. If I could leave it at no stars I would. The “girl” at the bar was extremely rude!! As soon as we entered she provided horrible customer service. We asked for a latte and with a loud and rude tone she stated that the machine was already put up and only had drip coffee and that she would NOT warm the milk up (which we were not even going to ask for). Honestly it felt like she just didn’t want to serve us at all. There is no need to treat a person the way she did. If you cannot provide customer service why work in the industry? We are all people and deserve RESPECT!

Coffee is great. Cant wait to come back n try wine n pizza

Very hipster, very artsy, good drink selection.

Shannon was such a pleasure. She had great knowledge of her draft list and made great recommendations. Btw the pizza was amazing!

Nice atmosphere, convenient location near The Strand and delicious Cuban Sandwich!!

We ended up leaving the bartender was extremely rude so we took our business elsewhere!

Great spot to enjoy a drink, coffee, beer, wine...with a friendly crowd and good staff. Shannon took care of us and we enjoyed the snacks. Adults, kids, doggies, all are welcome it seems. Will definitely return

An excellent spot for a nice quiet drink and chill people

Enjoyed a refreshing beverage and slice of pizza here. Bartender was very friendly and the atmosphere was nice. Not like a typical dark bar but instead a well lit space perfect for a pit stop.

I love this place because of the vegan options. Lots of non-dairy options for coffee and a small vegan menu for food. Friendly people and a cozy spot to hang out at.

One of the strange and authentic gathering places of Galveston. For medical students to Bohemians you see them all here

Great chill bar with awesome art on display.

Very nice bartender.

Great beer selection in the heart of downtown Galveston! Shannon was awesome, too!

Awesome place.Love the cute blonde bartender.She awesome.Gave me some great ideas of places to check.

The peopLes!

Fun artist gathering place. Glad its open again and now serving food. Lots of locals and some new friends that find it.

We stopped in as we were passing by the shop. It has a lot of antiques and beautiful stuff. They do consignments too. While we were there a woman stopped in so she could play on a piano. She played so beautifully it really made the shopping experience a joyful time.

Cool building. Hot mocha was not good. Pizza slice took a long time. Easy to park there on Sunday. Regardless of the retort below I personally found things to be very slow there on a Sunday. Im assuming most pizza is made by hand since thats how pizza works. I had some time to look around at the art. Overall 3 stars is fair.

Cool place. Great vibe. Russian bartender with blue hair was great. Gave us awesome places to check out. Will return for sure!

Cool place to hang out. The bartender Shannon is great

To the owner,We revisited your establishment and I must say we had a much better time. We sat down at the bar and the bearded bartender was great. We like the way he tells it like it is and the service he gave us was top notch. Another thing we liked was the journals that you could write poems in or draw in, I myself started a drawing I hope to come back in soon to finish. Even though you only have 12 beers on tap what you offer on those 12 taps were all great craft beers and the bottle selection is real good as well. Thanks again for the 5$ token and steering us to your place, we will be back for sure and as you can see I readjusted my rating to reflect our satisfaction.

Pretty chill space to just be. None of those judgy vibes like The MOD

Great drink selection and relaxing atmosphere.

Nice drink options for everyone from beer and wine too coffee drinks. Good service. A little different vibe that may not be for everyone. Had nude art on the wall and a lot of younger/20 somethings on their computers and iPads. Good location to the strand and between brew tours. Also enjoyed some good 🍕! Second time going here and enjoy their craft beer selection

My boyfriend and I happened upon this place in the middle of a Tuesday afternoon. It had great coffee drinks and happy hour drinks like mimosas. They even had a pizza special when we were there. We also enjoyed the atmosphere and the art that was featured at the time.We ended up going later that same evening for an open mic poetry reading followed by a duo. We will definitely go back the next time we visit Galveston.

This is a nice comfortable bar just two blocks off the strand. They have an very nice selection of interesting craft beers and other drinks, so you can bring non craft drinkers. They allow dogs inside so it is a great place to get out of the Galveston heat and enjoy a drink. They do not serve any food. The location is a loft for artists so they feature the local artists work so there is always something interesting to look at. We tend to make it a regular stop when we visit the island.

This venue has wonderful community gathering events such as art exhibitions and poetry nights. They have a limited bar selection however have all the staples needed to fulfill guest requests. They also offer wine by the glass or by the bottle, which is rare for a bar without a restaurant, but makes for wonderful outings with groups and friends. The indoor area offers generous seating and patronage is there to socialize and study alike, such a diverse mixture of people located directly under the Artist Lofts in Galveston. The outdoor seating area is an excellent spot to hang out and meet locals and friends in passing as is it is located in the historic district of downtown Galveston. The owner is often on premises and does a fantastic job of engaging his clientele as well as fostering a sense of community and well-being.

Tasty coffee, great art!

Shannon was the absolute best thing about this place I had a blast talking to her and the pizza was dope as well but most of all the undertow was amazing and the vibe was great will def be back for her and the coffee!!

Good tea, nice and quiet during the day, very pleasant

Great beer selection, dow to earth staff

Love the atmosphere and wine list. Also happy that I can get a cup of tea from the large selection. Interesting item-- tea with white port. Didnt know that existed, but was very happy to discover.

The employees at this location are some of the nicest you will find anywhere! They give AMAZING customer service, and really go above and beyond in positive community relations. I cannot say enough good things about the employees! There are monthly poetry-reading nights, where folks come from all over to participate in!! It is also part of the ARTWALK, which means that it display collections from artists, which changes every 6 weeks! Oh, and remember that its a PUBLIC HOUSE, which means that there are tons of board games-great for group outings!! It is pet-friendly, with a water bowl near the door for your FUR-BABE!! HOW COOL IS THAT!! For those folks visiting, I rate this place a whopping 5 stars! Have a great year everyone, and go check out the drink list and Gallery at The Proletariat! BADDA-BOOM!!

Amazing place. It was my first time there. They had a great selwction of drinks, beautiful art on the wall and a cool vibe. The open Mic, poetry readings were all AMAZING. Will definitely be returning

Love this place! Clean, bright, best bar staff on the Island. Great selection of craft beers, wine and Sake. They feature Galveston Coffee Roasters Coffee products and local artists. A little something for everyone,of any age

Kool hangoutGood drinks

Staff are always up for a chat, unless they are busy. Great beer selection, great wine and cocktail selection. Take a moment, however, to view the small gallery on display from local artists.

Great place for beer and art

Enjoyed the Dirty Chai!

I like the atmosphere and vibe of the place. I can sit and do my art here. Will definitely be back.

Have gone here several times now and literally never had a good interaction with the service. I don’t know what the staff’s problem is but they all seem to have the same chip on their shoulder. They are down right rude most of the time. No wonder it’s always dead every time I go in. Nice beer selection and cool art sometimes but not worth it. Won’t be back and don’t recommend.

The pizza was good and the beer was cold. Overall very nice peaceful place to go.

The art is always interesting and the craft beer selection is amazing. I typically get draft but they have an assortment of cans and bottles too, as well as wines and sakes. Oh, and Dominique is fantastic :)

This is a spacious, hip place to hang out. The bar tender scoffed at me and started to walk away when I committed the sin of trying to order a mixed drink - I hadnt noticed that there were no spirits behind the bar. Beer and wine only! Despite the somewhat rude bartender, I will be back if I am ever walking near the Strand in the evening.

Nice relaxed bar with interesting beer and wine. Friendly bartender was doing a great job when we were there.

Great place to play board games with friends. They have a fun selection of beers.

One of the shining examples of a hipster meet up place on the Island. Fairly good selection of beer and wine with great service. No to mention intriguing art!

Great beer selection on tap, cold AC and coffee if you need that too. Great location, nice outdoor chill spots.

I was here on a Saturday evening. The place was quite empty. I would recommend trying the beer flights as they have a good rotating tap selection. They also have card games for groups. Good place for a late night social gathering.

Fantastic beer selection in a cool environment. Very friendly bar staff, clean restroom, and awesome art hanging from the wall. Just off the strand you can still take your beer to go. A must stop for any strand bar crawl

Great study spot for students as its not to busy. Food offered is from local business close by. Beer, coffee, tea, wine, and even sake - theres something for everyone!

This Place will entice you. Great Artsy atmosphere, So many beverages to choose from. And Yummo Pizza. Go see for your self.

Cool place but were out of everything. Three beers and Earl grey tea. What kind of bar runs out of Guinness

Great coffee, great vibe

Eclectic bar with an artsy vibe. Feel free to be yourself. Sake drinks are awesome!

Low key place for the hipster in you. Plenty of different types of craft beerss Very chill vibe, big windows and open spaces. Bring your book or laptop

Very friendly staff great beer selection...good live music and art

Fun place with a great selection. The staff was super friendly and fun. Very much a highlight of my trip to Galveston.

Great atmosphere, drinks, and service.

What a great atmosphere and cool art from local artists!

Came in for coffee. Got the dirty chai latte. Very tasty! Cool art and atmosphere.

This is the place to be for some fun art and some amazing beer or wine. Love this place hands down. Grab a craft beer and enjoy it outside or inside.

A nice place to have a drink anytime. Good wines and a large amount of beers!

This is going to be one of my new favorite places to drink . The Proletariat Gallery has a wide variety of wine, mixed drinks and some called mead . This place has a very cool relaxed vide . It is a great place to drink, hang out with friends or by yourself . The drink I loved was something called mimosa but instead of orange juice they mix it Austin Eastsiders cider and champagne. The bartender was really nice and helpful .

Nice corner bar for the artsy, 20-something crowd. Over 20s can come in for a drink in a nice place before the young crowd arrives around 9 or so.

Such an amazing space. Full of art, artist and love.

Decent selection of craft beers, and excellent service. Cool place to just grab some beers and hang out with friends.

Great beer selection. Great staff. Good Coffee/tea/atmosphere

Fun, artsy pub with a great beer selection. Comfy couches, board games, and rotating local art on the walls.

Artistic, cool atmosphere, friendly staff and great drinks!

Nice dive. Good tea. Great location for music.

Classic old school architecture, with modern day updates that bring out a sleekish modern day look. The atmosphere is amazing and welcoming.

The pizza was awesome, the place looked cool, as a guest I felt like a was an inconvenience to the staff. If it wasnt for that I would definitely go back.

Great coffee and service

Great beer selection. Welcoming environment. Always a good time here.

Awesome place! Great selection of drinks, amazing ambiance and always talented artists and friendly people!

Pleasant atmosphere, exceptional beer selection, wonderful staff, and amazing art to admire on every wall!!

A combination bar, restaurant, coffee house and art gallery. Work by local artists hangs on walls and the artists themselves work upstairs in their studios. Very friendly owner of the bar gave us a history lesson of the building.

Nice bar, pizza not really worth the price.

Good vibes! Chilled. Serves coffee, Tea and wine and now after hours pizza.

I so loved this place. Edgar Allen Poe poetry night was awesome.

Has a very warm atmosphere. Great wine selection not too expensive.

Awsome atmosphere wide range of beers ania the bartender is awsome
