Always a good time and the local folks make it fun with their welcoming and friendly smiles and handshakes. I played an Open Mic there last year and hope to play there one day. Do yourself a favor and follow them here on Facebook and stop down for a great time. See YOU at the Backstreet Pub! Cheers!”

“My husband wanted to try Fried Soft Shell Crab and while we were in Beaufort NC we saw that Blackbeard’s had it on the menu. He ordered the build your own combo with the shrimp. He thought it was phenomenal and said the shrimp was the best he has had. I tried a cup of the Chowder and the Bisque. Both were really good but the chowder was my favorite. Carol our waitress was amazing, we were asking her about the soft shell crab and she gave us some history on the place. If you are in the area, make sure to eat here, you won’t be disappointed.”

My girls and I love to go there for an afternoon treat or we may even have it for a meal!”

“Stopped in for lunch yesterday, food was great. Restaurant was clean, but as we waited for our food and looked out at your front patio, it was sad to see the dead potted hibiscus trees. They can't be outdoors below 50°... if you had brought them inside in that sunny area for the winter, they would be blooming like mine is right now. You need to make your outdoor area visually appealing, instead of looking like you don't care about the place.”

“This is pretty much our 'hometown bar'. Every time we come to Beaufort, NC we stop here for pool on Mondays and Wii Bowling on Thursdays. Always friendly patrons. Menu changes daily (IYKYK)”

“I recently used Ocean Fence & Gate Repair for a much-needed fence repair, and I can't say enough how happy I am with the results. I was impressed by their responsiveness. When I called for an estimate, they came out immediately to assess the damage. The technician, Shay, arrived on time; his expertise was immediately clear. He thoroughly inspected the fence, identified the issues, and explained the necessary repairs. Additionally, I appreciated their pricing transparency. The estimate was fair and competitive, with no hidden fees or surprises. Look no further if you need reliable and skilled professionals to address your fencing issues. I highly recommend Ocean Fence & Gate Repair for their exceptional service, expertise, and commitment to customer satisfaction.”

“Really nice ice cream. High quality and flavorful. I had salted caramel brownie and my friend had mint chip. We were both very pleased. Service was very nice, too.”

“A local family owned business... Favorites are Sesame Chicken and Kung Pao Shrimp. All of the shrimp dishes are very good and seem to be made with fresh local shrimp. Their white rice is perfect - I prefer it to the fried rice. Really good Chinese-American restaurant.”

“The best cocktails in Carteret County, laid back, chill, perfect lil spot.”

“Awesome Calzones!! My wife loves the hot chicken wings!!”

“Went to Jersey Mike's expecting to meet a guy named Mike from Jersey. Turns out, no Mike. No New Jersey. Just sandwiches. But let me tell you, these subs? They legally shouldn't be this good. I took one bite and suddenly remembered my childhood pet turtle, Greg, who I never actually owned.

The bread? Softer than my last breakup. The meat? Sliced so thin, I questioned the laws of physics. I asked the cashier if they used a particle accelerator to cut the ham, and he just nodded like he understood.

Anyway, I left with a sub and a renewed sense of purpose. 10/10, would get existential over a sandwich again.”

“One of our favorite places to visit whenever we're in the area! Also I'll be performing my music there on Sunday 5/19/24, 3-6. Come out for a good time!”

“Service Tonight at 34 North in Beaufort

I wanted to take a moment to recognize what an amazing experience my wife and I had tonight at 34 North. From the moment we walked in, we truly enjoyed the ambience, the outstanding food, and the excellent customer service.

What made our evening especially memorable was our waitress, Shannon. She was absolutely outstanding. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine kindness made our night special. She was on point with every recommendation she made, and every suggestion turned out to be amazing. It is rare these days to find someone who truly takes pride in delivering exceptional service, and Shannon did exactly that.

Management needs to make sure they hold on to this one because employees like Shannon are hard to find. She represents your restaurant extremely well and made us feel welcomed and appreciated throughout the entire evening.

Thank you, Shannon, for making our night such a great experience with your professionalism and awesome customer service. My wife and I will definitely be back, and without question, we will be asking for Shannon.

Sincerely,Donnie Hardee”
