Fall in Port Aransas may look a little different than it does in your part of the world, especially if you live in one of the colder states in our nation. The leaves don’t start changing until much later in the year, and although it does begin to cool down when the calendar page flips to September, the only true way to detect the change in the season is by your food cravings. This fall Port Aransas food guide to will ensure that all your cravings will be sated!
First, There Must Be Pumpkin
Another early sign of the new season is the appearance of pumpkin spice lattes, served mostly iced here because it is still warm. Barefoot Beans, 345 N Alister Street, is our favorite place to sample the season’s premier flavor, offering a welcome start to every day. Now, we have seen that you can buy pumpkin spice coffee and creamer at the local grocery stores, so you can wake up to your favorite fall treat every morning and spend less money. Sipping coffee while sitting on your balcony watching the waves roll in below you is one of those vacation moments that will play a big part in your vacation memories for a long time to come!

More Soup for You
Next up on the carousel of cravings, we get to the soup portion of our search for fall foods. The thicker and creamier the soup, the better it is, and Virginia’s on the Bay, 815 Trout Street, is famed for its clam chowder and seafood gumbo. These selections are perhaps not as traditional as a pumpkin or squash soup that may be a part of your dining tradition, but both are so rich and delicious, we think you will be adding them to your personal line-up of meals! And if you don’t want to skip the tradition of pumpkin soup in the fall, the Port Aransas Farmers Market is a once-a-year extravaganza of food-to-table goodness; it will be held on October 26th this year. Grab your reuseable shopping bags and head to Roberts Point Park to pick up all the ingredients you need to make pumpkin soup at home in your seasonal sanctuary!
Thanksgiving Your Way With These Port Aransas Food Options
Our favorite gluttonous holiday is still more than a few weeks away, but sometimes it is almost as much fun daydreaming about something as it is doing it, so we thought that we would include Thanksgiving dinner in our fall food blog. You have choices on how you can enjoy the holiday meal, starting with a Thanksgiving dinner that is prepared by MacDaddy’s Family Kitchen at 118 Beach Street. They are closed on the big day, but your complete Thanksgiving meal—which includes smoked turkey breast or a holiday ham, traditional sides such as stuffing and green bean casserole, and your choice of fruit cobblers or pumpkin pie—can be picked up on Thanksgiving Day between 11 AM and 12:30 PM and devoured at home soon after. They are already taking pre-orders on their page. On the other hand, Trout Street Bar and Grill, 104 W Cotter Avenue, is open from 11 AM until 3 PM, serving a traditional turkey dinner with all the fixings while offering water views that will enhance the quality of your holiday celebration!
