15 Best Bars in Carolina Beach

“The best Golden Mary's ever! Fresh heirloom tomatoes. Great customer service.“

“Love the people and the place. All good things!“

“I hadn't been back to the Pelican in over a decade before popping in this Christmas Day. It's a rough day for my family and we couldn't have asked for a kinder, sweeter, or friendlier group of locals. The Pelican family went out if it's way to make us feel loved and welcome, to the point of tears. It's a memory that will stay in my mind as among the truest examples of the Christmas spirit I have ever experienced. Thank you 💚“

“Cheap drinks, great music and fast bartenders“

“Very unique atmosphere, great vibes. Came here 7.5 years ago and made a sort of life-changing, pivotal, whim-decision in this bar while drunk (don’t normally recommend doing that, but it worked out for the better, for me!), so I had to come back and visit again.“

“Had a wonderful dinner there last night 5star across the board.“

“our favorite place to eat on the island ❤️“

“Always delivers great food and service. Reasonable prices and looks out for all of the locals year around. Our #1 choice for chilling with good folk!“

“Rickety pier. Bare bones tiki bar. Perfect.
Staff was friendly and accommodating. View was great. And parking was free.
The end of the pier is in disrepair, but there is still plenty to hang out on.
Nice stop. Well worth the trip.“

“Oysters, shrimp, lobster rolls and cold beer! All delicious and wait staff friendly! Enjoyed ourselves!“

“always good time with deaf events at Micheal seafood after the beach we been hosting 8 years in row 2nd Saturday of August. abd with my family 14 yrs Christmas eve and brunch love the owner sweet lady definitely 5 star.🧡“

“Great food we got lobster roll and tacos fries food was fantastic our waiter was great bit hot inside but that was no biggy“

“By far the best bar around. They have an over the top staff from the bartenders to the bouncers. Oh, and there was this wicked talented kareoke dj that hosts karaoke 7 says a week. Kareoke can be such a scary experience but with how nice she was, it made it so much easier! I think her name is Veronica? Maybe Valerie but I think I just remebr that because it was sung that night 🤷‍♂️There was another bar that also happened to be doing kareoke that night and it was an absolutely horrible experience. But we found silver dollar and instantly fell in love. If I could give this place more stars and apprasil, I would 10/10! Such an amazing evexperience especially with the roof top bar and the view over the boardwalk and fireworks! We will be back to this bar everything we visit CB again!“

“Awesome entertainment, views, and food!“

“Vinny’s is our go to for pizza on the island. Kori and her team are always on point!“
