“How did we ever survive in on Topsail Island without Maine Lobstah Shack!!! Having spent years in the New England region, I know good from great when it comes to Lobster! The lobster rolls are to die for and the lobster bisk is the best I've ever had. On top of that, it is a wonderful family owned and family run business. At the end of the day, it is the quality of the food that keeps us coming back! Treat yourself!!! Definately a five star experience!!“

“We ♥️ Sundial! We have been visiting Topsail for years and it’s always a treat to stop into Sundial while we are there. Some of our favorite drinks are the bulletproof, The Sundial, and the Vanilla Rose cold brew… My kids always enjoy a cake pop or two! The fun sugar cookies are always a nice addition! I recently had a raspberry peach muffin that was absolutely divine! The staff is always friendly and efficient. The space is always bright, clean, and welcoming. 10/10! Can’t wait to visit again in a few months!“

“We were in walking distance of pelicans and went almost every night. We really enjoyed the wide variety of flavors. The order gentleman could be more personable, but the other staff was wonderful. We tended to look in the windows to prepare our selves for him. My children were always excited try a new flavor. We cannot wait to come back next year!“

“First time visiting today and loved that they had an option for the pups too.“

“I had Bada Bing ice cream for the first time and was really impressed. The peanut butter cup is soooo good. The chocolate chips in it actually taste like chocolate. Many places use cheap, tasteless chocolate so I was immediately sold. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Ordered the best pizza i’ve ever had. A unique option, but got chicken, spinach, banana peppers and alfredo instead of red sauce. So good! Also the eggplant parm was excellent. Fast delivery!“

“We’ve vacationed here for almost 20 years. It’s tradition that we get bagels the first morning and return a few more times during the week. We’ve always had fresh bagels, great service, and we love the mixture of NYC and Eastern North Carolina charm.

Thanks for making our vacation a little better each year.“

“We are so glad we stopped at Beach Bunnies! After biking to Soundside Park (which is absolutely worth the trip), it was the perfect place to cool off and relax.
The ice cream and smoothies were delicious, but what really stood out was the kindness of the staff. I had a little ice cream mishap and dropped one, and they replaced it without charging me. That level of customer service is hard to find and was so appreciated.
The atmosphere is great too—cold A/C inside, music playing, games in the back, plenty of sweet treats, and best of all, it’s dog-friendly. Beach Bunnies is exactly the kind of local spot that makes a vacation even more memorable. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Our go-to every year! Never disappoints!“

“My husband and son and I went Saturday for dinner and as always, it was delicious. The crab dip always spot on and the best around. A special Thank You to Tanner our server, he was awesome and did such a wonderful job and made sure everything was spot on for us to have a relaxing and enjoyable dinner. Tanner you were awesome and your personality and how you deal with your customers was great, please keep that up. My heart went out to you and I felt bad after the table next to us ran you and spent $200 if not more and left you such a crap tip, that was so wrong. But don't let people like that discourage you, keep doing you, because you were great!!!“

“The food was EXCELLENT, but we hardly ever saw the waitresse and she kept forgetting to do the things she said she would do. She didn't make much contact with customers. I would go back to this restaurant for the food, but I can't pay a generous tip when we have to keep tracking her down for water refills. (We gave up on the dressing and silverware.)“

“I found it very pricey, but my perspective on value for money paid should not affect anyone’s decision to try this place out. I got exactly what I ordered and it was delicious!! It was the perfect way to start my day at the beach. My bagel was perfectly toasted and I could taste all of the flavors I asked for. I stepped outside to sit under the sunshine while I waited for my order, and to my surprise they brought it outside for me. Overall a great experience and I would definitely do it again.“

“After seeing this place many times we decided to try it today. We ordered the white cap pizza and it was delicious! We will definitely be back soon!“

“This place has great food! I tried the ribs tonight and so tender and good flavor! Also good service! Definitely recommend!!“

“I get the breakfast sandwich, eggs over easy, cheese and a sausage patty. I’ve ordered this before at other restaurants and NYCD is the only place that gets over easy right. Gooey and runny, just the way a perfect breakfast should be! Of all the places on and off island, this is the one to go to. Highly recommended! 💕“

“Great place to eat“

“Excellent NY-style Pizza! My extended family and I ordered 2 large "classic" style pizzas to-go recently (1 cheese, 1 pepperoni). It was the best NY-style pizza that I have had in NC. The foldable crust was crisp with great chew. The sauce was flavorful and NOT sweet. There was a good amount of cheese. We were born and raised in Manhattan (NYC) and really enjoyed the pizzas from Michaelangelo's - highly recommend! Also, the workers were very nice and friendly.“
