Historic Downtown Strand Seaport Partnership, Galveston TX

I absolutely love love love everything about downtown Galveston! There is so much beauty, history, shopping, just pure fun things to do. From the carriage rides, to the trolley, the many different restaurants/bars that are family friendly to go to! Highly recommend any and every one to experience!

Great area that has changed a lot over the years. Be sure to stop and support the many small business on the Strand. The rail car makes several stops in the area as well.

Bonito sitio venir de noche a comer y tomar un trago en el día visitar the living chocolofactory recomendado

Not a lot to do. Streets are poorly kept and all the surroundings are visibly deteriorated

Cute old building. Very touristy. Probably many people from cruise are walking around. Little stores are cute

Wayne has played multiple events for our nonprofit agency during receptions and dinner. His music is perfect to set a peaceful and enchanting mood for the evening. Everyone who has heard him loves his music. He is very self-sufficient for set up just before the event, which is always a blessing to event coordinators. I'd have used Wayne for my daughter's wedding if she'd stayed in the country for it. I highly recommend him! Very professional and his music is a blessing.

Amazing place! Must go! Amazing place to walk and look at all the shops, if you like learning it's a great to go because there is a lot of history and fun facts around. If that's not your thing, no worries! There are a lot of shops with unique stuff to go see.

The Strand is always a great place to visit! Lots of shops and restaurants to choose from.

A block of bars, several blocks of shopping, all in very old buildings. There is a great game store call Play at the Stand, but that was the only thing that really drew us in. Can't imagine walking up and down the street in summer heat or when a bunch of ships were in port.

All of the staff were amazing! The drivers and porters were super friendly, and our vehicle was safe and secure!

Beautiful downtown area oozing charm and character. You can tell the area is well maintained and the restaurants and bars are very reasonably priced! We took a walk along the sea shore and enjoyed the many seafood markets here. Reminds me of Tokyo when I was there!

Went to the Shark Shack to grab a bite and a drink. We got the Burger just to split between 2 people but it was so good I wished we hadn’t shared it. The meat for the hamburger is not the frozen patty like some places! Plus, unlike other places where you don’t have a choice of how it’s cooked, you can order it the way you like. It came out perfectly cooked and was the best burger I’ve had in a long time. The atmosphere is upbeat and fun and the employees are great.
Lastly, we sat and ate at the bar and the bartender as did many others. But the bartender did not forget about you. She never acted rushed and as if she didn’t have time to talk to you. She smiled the whole time she was working and engaging with us and other customers as well as the rest of the employees. Everything felt cohesive. I know this a lot for a small restaurant and bar but when you find a hidden gem you just want others to know. I will be going back next time I’m in Galveston.

A lot of shops and places to eat here. The museums are interesting and fun to see. Always hit up La King's form the ice cream and hit up Yagas for lunch/dinner. The Pirate museum is highly recommended to visit.

Walking downtown is a very nice thing to do with family. We got to enter all the shops and found sk many beautiful accessories and cute clothing. Many new foods to try as well when we come back!

Love every minute of Galveston haven't been to The The Strand Galveston in over 10 years. I'm a Texas Boy so it didn't take much for me. Galveston is really ramping up and I'll be back for more. Come see the island

I love all the shops. They have great music and food. Always kid friendly and alot of places are now pet friendly. Parking can be a hassle at times but it is definitely worth it. The chess game is not out there anymore but thats ok. If you can go. You won't regret it.
