Big Chill Surf Cantina

Drinks were good. Food is overpriced. Basic frozen fries. A $20 burger should be better than 2 thin patties thrown on a regular bun. Nachos were soggy and again overpriced for not including any meat. Limited kids menu (only 3 options) which was supposed to include fruit, but they were “out.” $10 for a hot dog and fries.

Stopped in for a Christmas Drink. Decorated nicely. Friendly staff and patrons. We will go back !!

Multiple great experiences here, until the last time on 12/11 during trivia when they added $20 to my bill after I signed! Signed receipt for $38, which was the pending transaction on my bank app. Transaction completed as $58.

Contacted both the Surf Cantina and La Vida Hospitality over 24 hours ago, no response yet.

Came in Saturday night (9/14) a girl in a black t shirt and black shorts was working. So friendly! Greeted me like we were old friends! I’ve been here often and haven’t seen her before but probably my favorite experience so far! She’s a keeper!

The bar here is immaculate. The drinks are amazing, the vibe is fresh, and the reggae is the cherry on top.

Live music is excellent, bar staff less so. If you are a regular you will get great service. Everyone else will be left listening to their long conversations with a regular... wondering how long it must take to become a regular. I go there almost every week.

What a great laid-back atmosphere amidst all the hustle and bustle. Service and drinks were great. The small band was entertaining without being overwhelming. Truly a unique experience.

Parking: Nose first, I think, for some reason.

My niece who is visiting from South Carolina has been banned from this awful place. Why? Because she was accused of stealing phones.LIES. We come from a family of entrepreneurs & have always lived well. Perhaps the folks who work/own at the BCSC are just not used to BROWN faces. I have lived in Rehoboth Beach for over 20 years and never have I heard the nonsense that the folks at BCSC spewed at my niece. My husband and I are contemplating further action.THERE WAS NO THEFT. YOU DIDN’T WANT TO PRESS CHARGES AND NOR DID YOUR GUESTS…??? I WANT TO SEE THE TAPE. OH I BET YOU NO LONGER HAVE IT. LIAR AND MAY KARMA VISIT YOU AND YOURS.And please tell the manager of the Wave Hotel I said hello. The source of ALL OF THIS NONSENSE.

Drove down from Dover to play trivia. First time at this bar. Trivia was fun. BUT the bar…we got there sat at the bar for a few mins. No one came to help us. So we went to the outside bar for trivia and grabbed a seat. During the trivia break went back to bar cash in hand and stood there. I was standing between 4 empty bar stools clearly visible. Bartender made someone a drink and then went back to the bar chores while the other hovered by the register. I went and got my water bottle from the car. I didn’t spend a dollar at the bar tonight, because they must only serve regulars.

Poor atmosphere created by certain employees, overly aggressive and or drunk behind the bar is not the date night place to go anymore
