The Draft 1488

"Update for my visits since. They boys convinced me it was worth another visit. Both visits since my orginal review have had far better service. The drink deals are good and the specials are a good deal too. I tried the double porky burger and it was great! If you like spicy boiled crawfish/shrimp the southern style shrimp has some heat to it, but I still enjoyed it. I guess my opinion has been changed and the draft is a pretty good place to drink a beer, grab a bite to eat, and watch the game. I genuinly glad they proved me wrong. The only reason it gets 2 stars is because the beer wasn't overpriced, and of how hype everyone was when the Astros won the game. Took over 20 minutes for the only waitress working the night to get to us so we could order our drinks. After that, she was back somewhat frequently, but it was the 9th inning when we finally got out drinks, so we only ended up getting 1 round of drinks. Multiple tables were also dirty, making us actually have to search for a table to sit down. Not sure I'll be coming back."

"A great place to grab a bite for lunch although I've not been here in the evening, I'm sure it's just as good. They have a special midday menu w/specials on sandwiches, domestic beers and such, which are excellent. Nicole waited on me; super friendly and attentive as is all of their wait staff I've encountered. There's plenty of elbow room/seating in this establishment; not cramped at all, as well as pool tables and sports TV panels. Nice place!"

"I have been twice now and have not had a bad experience. Food has always been delicious, quick on drinks, and plenty of TVs around to catch all of the sports. Waitresses are quick and friendly. Great selection of beer."

"Some real good food had the burger with pulled pork and bacon and it was great .... they have about 20 tvs playing everything you could want with plenty of great service to provide your drinks a must try if in the area"

"Went to The Draft 1488 today when they first opened at 11AM, wanted to try their crawfish and see what other items they offer since they are a sports bar and diner. From the start, the restaurant is very specious, plenty of seating, great sound system, plenty of T.V.s, very well designed shorts bar and diner. The wait staff are very attentive and friendly, additionally the cook really cares about the food and makes sure everyone is satisfied. This is a really extra because I am sure in the evening when they are busier, it would be impossible for that level of attention. We ended up getting 2 pounds of crawfish, which was perfect in the level of cooking and slightly seasoned, but they only give 1 corn and 2 potatoes when you pay extra to have them added, generally speaking, everyone else gives at least 2 corn and 4 potatoes as a compliment to the crawfish, so it was a little surprise to know they charge extra, plus they charge extra to add sausage and mushrooms, plus they do offer add on ravioli, but that turned out to just be a side dish. I also ordered the meatloaf sandwich meal with onion rings, my fiance ordered the banh mi meal with fries, plus we ordered a side of cheese sticks. Overall the meatloaf was good, just not as a sandwich, they gave me tater tots instead of onion rings, and then brought me a side of onion rings after I pointed out the mistake, but other than the mix up, the meal was good. The banh mi sandwich was a expected and was good, the fries were nice and hot and salted. The crawfish was a decent size, ranging from small to medium, which is expected for this time of year. Additionally they gave is a dipping butter for them plus crawfish seasoning on the side which was nice. For the quality of the food, the quality of the restaurant and the quality of the staff, I easily give this a 5 star place to eat, if your in conroe and want a great sports bar that offers great food and entertainment, add this place to your list of places to go."
