Tip

“My favorite coffee shop in Carolina Beach has always served beer and wine but now it’s expanded its upstairs into a craft-cocktail lounge called “Shag Bar” with a cool speakeasy vibe. Nicole, former owner and lead bartender at Shagri La, has done an incredible job creating an upscale experience right on the Carolina Beach boardwalk. Tastiest cocktails in CB!“

“I originally only wanted to stop in bc I knew The Summer I Turned Pretty used this bar for a filming location so I drug my husband in lol BUT we both loved it!! It's definitely a stop we'd make again! It's a super cool dive bar!! You walk in, either order from the bar or go into the walk in cooler and pick any drink! There are tons of options! Once you have your drink, you're set to either sit inside or you can go out back and enjoy your drinks in the super eclectic and ultra cool outside space. They have tons of outdoor seating areas set up and so many neat things to look at. We highly recommend it!! Definitely worth the stop!!!“

“My husband and Iwere in town for the weekend and was looking for something good to eat. We read the reviews and decided to give Soul Flavor a try. I'm glad we did. The food was excellent. I got the turkey and black bean chili and the Royale burger. My husband got the jambalaya . Everything was excellent, including the steak fries. We enjoyed the ambience of the bar in the back. I loved the paintings and the fact that the TV station was on Bob Ross. Everyone was friendly, especially the bartender who was kind enough to take our picture. We will definitely come back the next time we are in town!“

“Solid 4 out of 5 stars. We enjoyed the lobster roll which was $20.99 and it was worth the money. Friendly staff, and definitely a locals place for sure. Had to pay for parking but overall quite happy with my decision to eat here.On a funny note, there is a sign that says “friends don’t let friends eat imported seafood” and on the chalkboard it said the crab was from Canada. (See pics) haha!Would return“

“This is hands down the best meal we’ve had on the boardwalk lately. Delicious food and wonderful service. Fried chicken sandwich was amazing, they actually use fresh chicken, not precooked frozen patties like most places. My oldest got the smash burger and said it was the best burger he’d ever eaten and despite only being 9 he knows his stuff. We will definitely be returning!“
