Snapka's Drive In (Texas Country Reporter)

[@randallbates9020]

My wife was a native Texan, I got there as soon as I could, lol. She turned me on to this show and I have loved it from the first time I saw it. My wife passed away on December 17 2014 and every episode I watch of this it reminds me of Saturday morning with coffee and biscuits watching this show together. Great memories and a great show. Love how this family stayed together and follows their dream. Blessings

[@melissahoney8317]

My mom's been gone for about a year now this past July would have been a year and she loved this show

[@BuckingHorse-Bull]

THANKS FOR SHARING MAN HONESTLY

[@rowenabiermann8128]

Sorry for your loss. Prayers that you cherish all the wonderful memories you had with your lovely wife.

[@randallbates9020]

@@rowenabiermann8128 thank you for your kind words. Blessings to you and yours.

Born in '53 and raised in Corpus, my family moved to Markins Drive in'59 and our backyard was against Weber Road. I could hop the fence and walk there in a few minutes. What a great memory. Glad to see it's still there!

[@tina8796]

What a nice lady and a fabulous story. I love visiting Texas. It reminds me of a lot of my home state of Tennessee so I feel at home there. I wish people were still nice and honest but we live in a different world now. Anyway, loved this video

[@grumpyscatsbestfriend5990]

I didn't know I was looking for this channel, until I found it.

[@jamesbillingsby8043]

I feel that, this is so whoelsome.

[@UberManTampa]

Me either

[@southtexasbrushcountryboy4176]

I remember the one in Robstown Texas when a was a boy growing up. Then when they closed that one we would go to the one in Corpus off leopard every time when went into town. Jus to be in the atmosphere of it and the GREAT people there and Great food. Good Times

Grew Up down the street and know several Snapkas from the oilfield....Nice folks.

[@jamesdooling4139]

My family has been visiting Snapka's since the 1960s. I hope it never goes away.

[@tina8796]

the food does look amazing

[@atomicbrain9401]

Whoa, this story was amazing. Such strong family ties. I’ve seen Snapka’s for years but hadn’t yet visited. Now I must, the next time I’m in Corpus. Granny Snapka is a firecracker.

[@mukwah1111]

Wonderful story ... Wonderful place ... Wonderful people. Thanks so much for sharing

[@cheefsmokealot4479]

Any man who has daughters are tearing up by the end of the video. Great American family! Love Texas! From the land of Lincoln. 😆🇺🇸👍🏼

[@JaspuneetS]

Definitely going there when I get a chance to visit this Texan town 😊👌👏🏼👍

[@LEVELGAZANOW]

Lived in Corpus for 30 years. Married a beautiful South Texan. I’ve never been to Snapka’s. Watching this story of a true family love story, I’m heading out to get a Dixie Burger. Thank you for reporting this story!

[@timothyoo7]

That lady has one hell of a work ethic!

[@starsister4420]

Next time I go down to corpus, I’m going to snapka’s! Looks awesome!

[@jennym.9099]

EVERYTHING is delicious at Snapka's. It does not disappoint. I would eat there everyday if I could.

[@rawbacon]

Best I can tell she's 97 and still going today in 2020.

[@Robert8455]

I love these kinds of stories. Subscribed for more!

[@joememphis1571]

When I lived in Corpus Christi, I would take the 27 (Leopard Street bus route) and I always got their tacos and fries. Snapka’s is really homey and very simple from a culinary standpoint. Awesome food.

[@terialbrett241]

It's good to have roots that give you a reason to be.

[@victorpena9824]

Finally, a nice story for today. No politics, no racism, no violence just me thinking about this wonderful family and biting into one of those Dixie burgers with some rings. Ice tea please, unsweet... Maybe next time I'm in Corpus Christi.

[@bletchdroshek5984]

Amen brotha. Just some good ol Texas hometown stories about family, love and great food. Gotta love TCR for bringing us such good things about our state

[@charleschampion4682]

A cool story about a lawyer. Rare find...

[@wms1650]

Yes sir, sounds like a lot of strong family love. Probably a lawyer with ethics.

[@yongyea4147]

I agree, me too!

[@StrettonRutherford]

What a great story and drive in!!

[@alexgon9627]

I need to take road trip down there soon

[@paulhickey4485]

Ate there quite a bit when I worked in the area. Nice documentary. Should have shown the stool and spot where Method Snapka sat at the end of the counter by the wall phone.

[@lynnleavitt478]

I live in California and this program is addictive. It reminds me of Huell Howser and his "California Gold" and "Visiting With Huell Howser: I've been binge watching these episodes of TCR.

[@DubCPicker]

Love that wonderful place ❤️❤️❤️

[@robertvana3485]

I was raise in Robstown when I was in hi school we went to eat lunch there on the week end we all the afternoon up there until it close miss see the old place .

[@sandracastle42]

I grew up going to Snapka’s Drive In. Tacos, enchiladas, and of course hamburgers and onion rings. A lot of times it was just for a Coke and some canoodling with a current boyfriend. There was a lot of that going on in those cars on date nights. Those were definitely the days.

[@tina8796]

🤣

[@ASmackdown54]

I MISS TEXAS SO MUCH!!!

[@cliffordgoehring7146]

We used to ride our bikes to the one on Weber and get onion rings and fries!

[@ryanstubblefield8593]

Dang if u can trust a lawyer.. she said fresh made pattys.. watch the video and those burger pattys are frozen. Regardless its a great place to eat none the less.

[@yongyea4147]

No truer words.

[@bletchdroshek5984]

Hey, they were fresh when they arrived haha

[@yongyea4147]

Probably shut down now.

[@robertobenigni1029]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@gregknight293]

The negative comments about the hamburger patties are rude and illiterate. Commercial kitchen suppliers can sell you a pattie press in which a ball of fresh hamburger is placed and pressed for uniformity . They leave the same marks and size and thickness on every pattie . I would gladly eat a burger there everyday if it were not half way across Texas from me ... Good show, TCR...

[@themonkeyhand]

Spot Hunt's ketchup on the table, should have stuck to lawyering.....

[@gunmetal2445]

That seems like two high stress jobs. I wonder how she manages it both?

[@stevethecountrycook1227]

Hon, You probably aught to retire from law. You have done your time and have payed your Mom and Dad back for the college they put you through! You said it yourself," if I could "fix" a court case as easily as I can "fix" an order! You know that will NEVER happen! Go to your family restaurant and enjoy what is in your blood! Your Mom is precious!

[@danieldravot341]

Maybe it’s me, but those hamburger patties on the grill look like they started out frozen . . .

[@mikenicholson2548]

👍

[@stukaman1162]

This lawyer said all their hamburgers are fresh made - the shots of the patties on the grill say they were pre-processed, complete with punctures to make them cook faster. Chef Gordon Ramsay would probably say, "F*** me!"

[@yongyea4147]

Can you elaborate?

[@stukaman1162]

@@yongyea4147 Yepper - Go to 1:21 of this video and clasp an eye on the burgers on that grill. Tell me they're not identically shaped by a machine and not identically perforated to cook faster. No "fresh-made" patties formed by human hands look like that, pal. They're frozen, and I repeat: Gordon Ramsay would say, "F*** me!"

[@michaelmullin3585]

A lawyer is also a waitress. interesting. Her legal clients don't pay her enough.

Texas Country Reporter specializes in visual storytelling. Most Texas restaurants with a great story & even better food are off the beaten path. They are called 'Hole in the Wall' restaurants. TCR brings those gems to light.
