I was fortunate to have lived in Germany for 7 years back in the 70's and 80's. So what a delicious surprise to have this German food truck make it's debut on Galveston Island. The food is beyond yummy and the menu authentic. The owners, Judith and Charles are a true delight to chat with and get to know. If you are on the island, Around The Corner food truck is a must do!

I cannot express how amazing this food is! Judith and Charles Smith are wonderful people who put care into everything they do. Whether it’s holding a conversation, creating a wonderful delicious meal, or ensuring your hot freshly served food has just the right amount of seasoning or taste! That is why I can ensure you that an experience at their food truck is worth one having. It is filled with delicious authentic German food that will want you coming back for seconds (maybe even thirds). Would recommend EVERYONE to try this new up and coming food truck for it will take you right into the heart of German culture provided by my mother, Judith Smith and step father, Charles Smith! Love you guys!

Food was fresh and delicious! It is nice to finally have some German food in the area. Each meal is prepared as you order as this speaks for their freshness, so expect a little bit of a wait on busy days. They have a nice outdoor area to sit and relax while waiting so I recommend getting a cool drink! Employees of all the food trucks in the area were incredibly helpful. As I was waiting for my food, there wasn’t any shady spots, but an employee from another truck put up an umbrella so I could move into the shade. I decided the share a table with some others and had a nice meal on a beautiful day.

Really good food. My wife, daughter, and I tried it out last night. For the quality of food the line should be around the block. My favorite was the curry wurst. Packed full of Authentic German flavors with a nice side of fries. Great meal and filling. The potato ball things were awesome. Delicious with some beer cheese. The pretzel bites were awesome. I could of used a side of sea salt because I like mine covered in salt. None the less awesome. The spatzel was omg good. The owners came out and talked with us and our baby girl for 15 or 20 minutes. Super super nice people. Will be back time and time again.

Took a trip to Galveston Beach to eat some delicious authentic German food for lunch. Around the corner (Um de ecke) is owned by two of the nicest people you can imagine. If you haven’t met Judith Smith & her sweet husband yet, you are missing out! The food was so good it took us back to Oma’s kitchen in Deutschland. We tried almost everything on the menu! Schnitzel with buttery spaetzel and sauerkraut & sausage. Currywurst with pommes frites. Yummy Schnuggets, the gurkensalat has the tastiest yogurt dill dressing. Then their hammered spaetzel with ham and cheese. The kids got Haribo gummy kabobs for dessert. Highly recommend a trip down to Galveston even if it’s just to get some “real” German food to go!

This place is a little food truck area with outdoor seating. The food was amazing, I ordered several different items on the menu just to basically try it all. It was well worth the drive. The owners are super sweet and very accommodating. It is a must stop and have some German Food place.
