Food scene
Harrison’s Landing is still lovingly referred to by some locals as Tavern on the Bay, which was our original restaurant name when we opened in 2010. It’s a Corpus Christi gem that offers a unique dining experience. Located in the heart of the Corpus Christi marina, we are within walking distance from the downtown hotels, and is the only place in town that has a floating gift shop, and floating bar and dining areas.
Our venue is fido-friendly on the back patio. However, all fido-friendly venues are subject to city ordinance regulations which include that our furry friends are kept on a leash while on the property and wear current city license and rabies vaccination tags. Water bowls are provided upon request. Guests are responsible for their pet’s behavior.
Reservations and call-ahead seating are not offered. Thank you for your understanding.
