Star Drug Store

My favorite restaurant of the entire trip was Star Drug Store.  It's an old-fashioned diner with a bar surrounding the kitchen.  Not only did the restaurant offer bookoos of nostalgia points, the food was great!!



 
The food portions were so huge, the bf and I had to split our old-fashioned patty melt.



Do you see that pickle folks?  That's a fantastic pickle.  A pickle is how you know you're in the right place.  It should have a nice *snap* when you bite into it.  This one was absolutely perfect.

The reason we split the meal (I didn't share the pickle) was mostly to save room for their specialty:




Worth it!!



Star Drug Store gets a 5 out of 5 spoons rating from me.  The classic diner decor with the warm and welcoming waitress/cooks/owner-hostess, combined with exceptional food, make this place a can't miss restaurant on your next trip to Galveston, Texas.
