Carney’s Pub - No clowns with all the spirits!
I lived in Austin for almost 10 years before recently moving to Bryan.
Here, I have found this wonderful little place called Carney’s Pub and Grill at 3410 South College Ave in Bryan.
It is a small little stone building with porch seating, that has a feel of establishment…a presence and character that all true pubs have. If buildings can have spirits, then this
one certainly does.
It has a good beer selection for the town, including a mystery beer that you can buy at a set price of $2.00 a pint. It changes each time the keg runs out, and is usually a rare beer that they normally don’t serve.
On weekdays, Carney’s is home to a small crowd of real people, with real jobs just having a drink and unwinding after work. The service is always good, if laid back. The place just puts you into a mood of relaxation, and no one hardly ever hurries.
After about 10 pm though, local frat boys start showing up, and some of the regulars leave. Though these kids generally lack an appropriate depth of experience to properly appreciate the the atmosphere, they still manage to enjoy themselves and play some pool.
All in all, it is certainly a place you should put on your map.
