Welcome to Jayla’S Bar & Grill

“ If you are new to town, definitely give this place a chance. Friendly service, the atmosphere was nice, & pet friendly. The establishment has a bottom level that's screened in, & a second level where you can enjoy a beautiful sunset. Jay, the owner was super kind, gave us tips on what we may expect to see, while on the beach, referred a few places, & even gave us a history lesson about the bay everyone would enjoy. This place has definitely earned a returning customer. ”

“ Driving and we needed a bite to eat. Definitely recommend JayLa's. Burgers were amazing. Wings, fries and mozzarella sticks were great. Atmosphere was awesome!!! Ty you all for the hospitality!!! ”

“ Very dog friendly beach bar, that dogs are even welcome inside the bar! Plus, there’s great music too! The restrooms are extremely clean…that tells me how clean the kitchen is probably too! ”

“ Wow! We just found our new go-to spot on the Bolivar Peninsula! Jayla's Bar and Grill is everything you could want in a coastal eatery and more. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with huge smiles and that warm, friendly hospitality that makes you feel right at home. The atmosphere is the perfect blend of a relaxed, beachy vibe and a fun, lively grill. It's the ideal place to unwind after a day spent in the sun and sand at Crystal Beach. Now, let's talk about the food – absolutely phenomenal! I had the fried shrimp platter, and it was hands-down some of the best I've ever had. The shrimp were huge, perfectly crispy, and tasted incredibly fresh. My husband ordered one of their signature burgers and he's still raving about how juicy and flavorful it was. The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and everything that came out of that kitchen looked and smelled delicious. The bar serves up ice-cold beer and some fantastic cocktails that are perfect for a warm Texas day. The service was top-notch throughout our entire meal; our server was attentive, funny, and gave us some great recommendations. If you're looking for amazing food, a wonderful atmosphere, and service that makes you feel like family, you HAVE to go to Jayla's. It’s a true local treasure, and we're already planning our next visit! Highly, highly recommend! ”

“ We had a WONDERFUL time here. It might look small on the outside compared to some of the bigger places but let me tell you this, the ATMOSPHERE and PEOPLE are absolutely wonderful. The drinks are cold and fresh, and the best part DOG FRIENDLY!! we even went back to the beach house and got our dog because the owners dog Ellie was so sweet and wanted to play. They have a potty yard for the dogs as well as a wonderful view upstairs! The food was DELICIOUS we had a burger, nachos and a philly cheesesteak and everything was absolutely great! The drinks are so good, definitely try the missing or lost flipflop drink it is THE BEST!! We enjoyed meeting Laura, Kevin, jay, skip, Ellie and a dog named Lurch, and all the rest of the crew(I'm terrible with all the names I'm sorry if im forgetting anyone) . This is a place we will stop everytime we come visit from Oklahoma because the are just awesome! Give them a try, trust me! Ellie is the best greeting crew ever. ”
