Going down there the week after the forth of July and was wondering where i should eat and best places to stay. Thanks for the help.

We always eat at Water Street and it is great.

Joe Cottens BBQ in Robstown.

There used to be a place called Crystals back behind the mall a few blocks that was really good. Kinda like a Chili's or something, but much better.

I hear they have a Whataburger there in Corpus too.

If you want the best Seafood in Texas. Then do yourself a favor and take an hour drive just south of Kingsville to a little beach known as loyola beach ( rivera, texas ). There's a place there called KINGS INN. It has the best Fried Shrimp, fish, tartar sauce, and onion rings you will ever eat. They serve family style and the place is packed most nights. People drive from very long distances to eat there and have been for over 50 years.

My buddy next to me is from Corpus. He said go to Two George's. They are two ex-cooks from King's Inn. They opened up their own place and they serve the same stuff.
