“If you’re in Holden Beach and looking for a fun place to eat, hang out, hear live music, and enjoy the local beach atmosphere, Salty Dogs Cafe and Bark Bar is a must-visit. Great food, cold drinks, friendly service, and a laid-back coastal vibe that makes you want to stay awhile. It’s one of our favorite spots for lunch, and the nightlife is the best!. A great place to bring friends and family when they’re in town. Definitely one of the most unique restaurants and bars near Holden Beach. Highly recommend checking out Salty Dogs if you want good food, good people, and a fun local experience.”

“SIMPLY AMAZING! Coming from an actual chef I can’t recommend this place enough! Food was PERFECT and the service *chefs kiss* (specifically our girl Sarah)! Come here you won’t be disappointed!”

“Each year we come to the beach we always enjoy food from Mermaids. Spoke to Brandy 2 this year and she was so sweet, kind and helpful. Crab legs were amazing and flounder was super good. We always enjoy!!”

“Nice outdoir area and only place at Holden Beach with homemade ice cream AND homemade waffle cones!”

“I tell you what, that was the BEST breakfast I have had in a long time 😊. The environment was laid back and friendly. Most of all I want to thank my dear friend and waitress this morning for being on top of everything 😉. Love ya Jennifer Simmons and I hope you have a great day..”

“I usually don't eat a lot of hotdogs, but since discovering Burg-Dog I find myself eating them at least once a week. Definitely would recommend this place. Clean, friendly, fast, and affordable. Don't change a thing, perfect as it is.”

“The environment was very welcoming and the atmosphere brought back so many memories from my childhood times on a farm in my grandmas kitchen! I ordered the Cape Fear and wasn’t disappointed! It was perfect! Awesome service and food!”

“Great people and great food! Highly recommended and I’m from Texas!”

“Great service, Great employee and Great coffee!”

“We eat breakfast here every time we come to the beach. The staff is always so friendly and the food is delish! I was just coming to their page to make sure they were open tomorrow 😂 then it asked me if I’d recommended The Purple Onion. 10 out of 10 recommended!! I can’t recall ever having a bad experience here. And if I did, it’d be okay because we all have bad days every now and then.”

“This place is amazing! After stopping by a few other local bakerys weve definitely came to the conclusion that this one was the best. The cinnamon rolls were so fluffy and fresh. Muffins were delicious. The atmosphere was peaceful and centered around Christ. We love it!”

“Great wings! Great service! Love this place!”

“Went to The Scoop Sunday morning and ordered a bacon, egg & cheese sandwich just as I have numerous times through the years. I was told that they no longer served it on toast, so I would have to choose a bagel. I asked why I couldn't get it on toast and I was told... "They were selling to many of them on toast, and not enough on bagels, so they quit offering it on toast. That way they would have enough bread to make a kids' grilled cheese". I am still shaking my head!!”

“Best burger joint in the area! Catch them for a good quick lunch thats not going to break the bank, with a quality taste that's sure to make all age groups taste buds jump for joy.”

“great homemade tacos was my choice for dinner. Ingrid was my server, listened to my questions about the menu,and gave me a great recommendation on the Pollo tacos.. all the while being a very pleasant person. ☺️ I'm sure I will go back again.”

“Came down to Coastal Wine & Tap for spring break. Must I say it was a delightful experience with amazing people & good personality’s. I felt like I was at home and everyone in there had the same experience! I will continue to recommend Coastal Wine & Tap to everyone who needs a bar recommendation!! Will be back soon!!”

“We love this place so much ! Always a stop when around the area”

“Great bagels!! Great people!!! Try the tuna salad on an everything bagel!!!”

“This is a really nice layout, however I think the course itself is completely over rated. We played today. The greens rolled nicely but the fairways and rough were burnt out. Most of the ground around the course played like concrete and was super dry. I’ll give it a shot some day when there has more rain but it’s not in great shape now. PS the hot dogs are more expensive than an MLB ballpark, 10$ WHAT? And the pace was very slow as well.”

“Very consistent place great staff and food!”

“I’ve been coming to Homestyle for years and it’s one of my favorite places to go. The servers make you feel like your family. Ask for Kyndal if you decide to give it a try. She’ll make sure you’re taken care of and is the sweetest.”

“They did an amazing job catering our post wedding . Very responsive and easy to work with. Amazing coffee, New York bagels and fresh muffins! I would go out of my way to use them again.”

“Whoa. Friday - fried flounder and fresh cut french fries. Slaw. The very best fried flounder I’ve ever eaten. We vacation in Oak Island. Fridsy lunch at Sea Biscuit.”

“Great food Great service”

“The cupcakes were awesome, of course!! The kids loved them & Lane was of course excited to get the bakery twice that day for his birthday!! (His sister surprised him with an eclair earlier that day) Everything we’ve had here is amazing!”

“Excellent pizza almost as good as Ct's Pepe's which is where I learned about great pizza. 2 areas of improvement needed. 1) spread sauce and toppings farther out on the crust. 2) Cook the crust longer to get it brown or more cooked instead of soft. Needs crunch.”

“We love inlet view! The best spot to come for traditional, good seafood cookin’ with an amazing view and atmosphere. Sam, the owner, is so accommodating and caring about everyone who comes in the doors. We came tonight and our server Emily was so sweet and on top of everything. It’s a must visit!”

“My parents went here on their 62nd anniversary and the folks there brought out 2 cookies with candles, a CFA cow, and sang to them. You don't get this at any other fast food chain in this country.”
