Hester's Cafe Lamar Park

Dropped in for breakfast during a visit to CC. Very good menu selections and coffee options. Inside and outside seating options. Beware of birds outside, they hungrily await you leftovers and table droppings. Can fill up quick at peak times. Order at the counter and eat there or get takeaway. Delicious plates and brews! Staff is very friendly and table delivery and cleanup is attentive. Stop by today and try it out.

Good food with a pleasant atmosphere and nice patio (for good weather). A great place to catch brunch or lunch while in Corpus Christi or in between trips to the beach. It was seemingly popular as there were lots of people getting food on the weekend when we stopped by, but there was no wait to find a table. We tried a variety of sandwiches, soup, and the turkey sausage mash. All were reasonably good. Prices were maybe a little high, but definitely worth it if looking to eat local (rather than something from a chain). The staff was nice and patient, though it was sometimes hard to hear them with all the people at tables and in line to order. The staff were helpful about what was gluten free, but there wasn't a whole lot that was gluten free past sandwiches with gluten free bread and salads. My gluten free compatriots were definitely jealous of the non-gluten free breads and options. I hear they have a good gluten free desert, but they ran out before we got an opportunity to try it.

Cute cafe with great atmosphere. It was very clean, the staff were friendly, and the pastries on display looked delicious. They have a variety of options for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. One of the best iced coffees I’ve ever had. Highly recommend and would visit again

Simply a beautiful place to enjoy some great food and company. Plenty of seating inside and out. Delicious menu and super clean. Breakfast menu served all day ..The staff is attentive and friendly very nice location to bring company or the family… must try..

Fantastic food! Cinnamon roll
Was delicious and unlimited coffee can’t be beat. The self serve bar was nice and clean. Food was okay. The lunch special was a BLT half panini and a poblano soup. The poblano soup was delicious and spicy but lukewarm at best. My son got the Reuben and it was tasty especially the potato chips.

Great service, long line but they got through it really fast, food was excellent, I had the club sandwich and a salad my husband had the waffles. Both were fantastic. The vibe was amazing we sat outside where they have a cute water fountain and metal tables. Super cozy 100% would go back again.

We were visiting here from San Antonio and tried breakfast at Hester’s. It was delicious and we were pleasantly surprised. Everything was clean which I appreciate and the atmosphere was cozy. Food came out fast even though it was busy! We will definitely come back here next time we are in town.

Very disappointed with my food yesterday for my pick up order. My chicken Caesar salad had no chicken and the lettuce was completely cooked! Not sure if my food was made since I placed the order in the morning even though the pick up time was 11:30. It seemed as if the hot food was placed under the salad allowing the heat and steam to wilt and cook the lettuce. I have provided 2 stars because the person who took my order was very nice.

Atmosphere in this place is amazing! Food was great as well! The caramel frappe and the syrup for the waffles stole the spotlight! Definitely will go back!

Great local eatery. Cool atmosphere. The food was very yummy. We had the Monte Cristi, breakfast special with poached eggs, and a turkey provolone sandwich. They also have yummy coffees. Only negative .. which I am not docking on stars are the seating arrangements when it’s busy.
