I love the Galloway Hooker. The new owners have changed the name. I have been told by locals that food is much less desirable than it was before. With their recommendation. I will go for a drink, not to eat.

The food at Piper’s Tavern at Lake Norman is Excellent and the staff is Friendly and Fast! Love the new menu! I just had the best ‘Shrimp and Grits’ here and highly recommend the Reuben sandwich! Trivia on Thursday night was a great time! Thanks for a fun family night out! A+

Had a nice Thursday dinner with $5 draft Guinness. Fish and Chips and Bangers and Mash were delicious. The onion soup was good.. but VERY salty. We were pleasantly surprised to find it was trivia night. It was a fun evening!
