We are thrilled to announce that The Gnarly Marlin, a casual waterfront eatery and bar in Rockport, Texas will be open soon!
Our move from lake to coast is proving to be an awesome transition as the Central Texas ties to Rockport continue to amaze us - it seems everyone has a connection to this special town. We are very excited to meet new friends and welcome them along with our long-time friends to our new gorgeous facility that boasts a spacious open-dining area, a large welcoming bar and lounge, and three outdoor patios - all with a spectacular view of the Bay!
In addition to serving our tried-and-true favorites including Fish ‘n’ Chips, Cubano Sandwich, Ahi-Tuna, Burgers, Lobster Roll, Cheesesteak, and more, The Marlin will have new, delicious items like Crab Fingers, Baked Oysters, a NY Strip, Clam Chowder, and fresh seafood caught by local fishermen - we’ll even cook your catch! Our full bar will feature unique and fun shareables, margaritas, draft beer, The Gnarly Gar’s famous Rumrunner, Pain Killer, Cross-Eyed Mary, and more!
An angler and birder’s paradise, Rockport is home to fantastic restaurants, countless festivals, amazing sunrises and sunsets, Goose Island State Park, and Texas’ only Blue Wave Beach!
The Marlin is located between Cove Harbor Marina & Drystack and Cove Harbor Waterfront RV Resort, at 2796 Texas Highway 35 South and only 17 miles from Port A! Plan a day-trip or take a few days off, head to the coast, and come see us!
Stay tuned for updates on our Grand Opening and be sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter and on Instagram .
We have begun the hiring process and are extremely proud of the strong and experienced Gnarly Gar staff members that are relocating with us, and there’s room for more! We’re hiring all front-of-house and back-of-house positions! If you’d like to join our team, please email [email protected] and please provide your resume - we’d love to meet you!
We’re excited to live, work, and play in this wonderful community and we hope you visit us soon. Come by car or by boat - we’ll have a seat waiting for you at The Gnarly Marlin!
