Its located on George Bush Drive west of the railroad tracks just down from Bluebell Park at Olsen Field. Its about 1 mile from the Phoenix house, and about 4 miles from the Welcome Lane house.

One of the best hamburgers in BCS, surprisingly comes from a Mexican style restaurant. The jalapeno bun is the best! Please note this is on Northgate across from campus. MAKE sure you are parked in their parking lot. DO NOT park in the paid parking (Coyote Parking) lot behind Chimy's - they have been known to tow even after you have paid.

A local who returned to BCS after Hurricane Katrina and runs a great cajun style restaurant close to downtown Bryan. Korey and Tyisha (husband and wife team) have won multiple awards for their crawfish. They take great pride in their restaurant. If you come outside of crawfish season the shrimp or crab boil are excellent. And you can't go wrong with ordering a cup or bowl of gumbo! Not fancy place but well worth it.

You can eat there and enjoy a cheap beer on tap for about $2 or take it back to the house and enjoy. Very economical.
