“Railyard Bar & Grill in San Marcos is an absolute gem! The food is incredible, with a menu full of delicious options that are packed with flavor. The atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming, making it the perfect spot to relax with friends or family. But what truly sets this place apart is J-La, the most amazing bartender I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting! Her energy is infectious, her drinks are top-notch, and her attention to detail is unparalleled. She makes every customer feel like a VIP and always has the perfect recommendation for a drink or dish. If you’re looking for a place with great vibes, fantastic food, and exceptional service, look no further than Railyard Bar & Grill. Be sure to grab a drink from J-La—you won’t be disappointed!”

The staff were so sweet!! I had such a good time just getting my double-shots and dancing around in my dress. :) nothing but kind words. Chris makes SUCH GOOD tacos, but the fried chicken tenders he makes are SUPREME.

It has a very open concept. There are plenty of outdoor tables under trees. Bar games for the family to enjoy. The food was very good and reasonably priced.

Lauren was absolutely killing it alone behind the bar with a large party and near full bar top. The food was fresh, the sauces amazing, and seasoned perfectly.

Okay, five stars isn’t enough. TEN stars, easily! We had a company work party at Railyard this weekend. It was a great time. Cool place, the food was tasty and fresh. The catered food order was constantly refreshed the whole night. Really good wings! I just want to take a moment to shout out the staff - man, these folks were working. The whole night, trash cans were constantly taken out, patio swept, tables cleared - I mean, I never saw these ladies take a break. And we were there a long, long time!! Bartenders poured great drinks, too. Just all around excellent time, vibes were high and food was great! I work in event planning was so impressed. Well done and thank you all!
