Food was outstanding, our waiter Ethan was great, would recommend except that there were A LOT of flies in the restaurant. It was hard to enjoy our meals while keeping the flies off us & our food.
Google says 11pm closed. Front door says 10pm closed on Friday. Front door was locked at 9:44pm. Get your hours straight.

I don't typically write reviews, but Lost Paddle Pizza totally deserves this review. Here's my experience: (1) Ordered pizza through the Slice app (as requested on their website); we just wanted a medium "The Works" pizza but had to have a minimum order of $25 (pizza alone was $21.99), so I ordered $4.99 home chips with ranch. (2) The Slice app kept track of our food and told us when it was ready to be picked up, in approximately 20 minutes; we were there at that time. (3) They were having a corn hole tournament, so parking was scare but people were not. (4) My husband went inside to pick up our order. They didn't have an order for us, but they did have an order with the same last name and one letter off from my first name. It wasn't ready but would be done in 10-15 minutes...so we waited. (5) My husband went back and the order was sitting on the table with no one around. He picked up the order and brought it to the car. I looked at the home fries; there was no ranch dressing. He went back in and had to search for someone to help him. When he finally saw a member of the wait staff, he asked for ranch dressing. He was told they didn't have lids for the dressing cups, did he still want it. He said yes, and came outside with two ranch dressings without lids. We were able to make it home without it spilling, thankfully, but did have to cook quite a lot of the "chips" that were still half-cooked potatoes. (6) Then, we opened the pizza. Oh my. It was cold, so I had to warm it in the oven; then, it was so incredibly thin, it couldn't hold up the absolutely bare minimum toppings. I am not exaggerating when I say there were four olives, four pieces of pepperoni, two pieces of Italian sausage...you get the idea...on the whole pizza! We paid $30 for the most awful, next-to-nothing pizza and experience we've ever had. We will NEVER go to the Lost Paddle Pizza again. If you want to drink and play corn hole, go ahead. If you want a great meal...go somewhere else.

Don’t order here! Ordered pizza online at 6:45pm. Stated pizza would be delivered at 7:30pm. It is now 7:51pm and it says the pizza is still not ready or even left the shop. Horrible service, their phone number doesn’t work either.

The pizza was just OK. My son and I ordered a pizza and their were very few toppings. The pizza is not cheap here so was expecting better. Based on this one experience, I wouldn't recommend coming here for pizza. To be fair, this could have been a one-off so we may try it again when we're in the area. The location is great!

I've ordered from here a few times, the food is good. Today I placed an order online but for some reason it was cancelled by the restaurant, no explanation. No worries, I was going to call and place the order. No one answered the phone. Lost my business as a customer.

Atmosphere is awesome. Great beer, foods pretty good. But service is god awful. Food comes out super late. People who get there after you get food before you. Entre comes out before appetizer.

Just left Lost Paddle after waiting 1 hour 20 minutes for our food that never came out. After 45 minutes I asked our waiter if our food was coming out soon and he told me 5 minutes. After another 15 minutes I asked another member of the waitstaff since our waiter was nowhere to be found - she went and checked and told me 7 more minutes.
After 20 more minutes I let them know we were leaving - to which she told me “your food didn’t come out yet? I saw it back there!” No thanks - we left.
It is right on the river so it has great location - too bad the service was terrible. Can’t comment on taste of food since we never got it haha

Food was excellent and the atmosphere was great! We sat out by the river in the deck. Service was slow and we were asked to carry our menus to our table, which may just be their thing. We tried to order drinks but every special drink we sold out which seems to be a common theme in the area in general so I can’t fault them for that.

Had a not so pleasant experience. Ordered a very veggie pizza and salad. After waiting 40 min we asked our waitress what was taking so long and she replied they were really busy and it would be out soon. Except the busy came in 15 minutes after we placed our order and one of those tables had already been served their pizza. It would have been nice if they just admitted the ticket was lost or missed. I even had to ask if we could have our salad while we continued to wait. Almost an hour after ordering we finally received a pizza with a couple slivers of green onion and about 3 sliced black olives. So much for "very vegetable". We've had the vegetable pizza last year and it was covered with vegetables, so this was very disappointing. Doubt we will be back since it was $25 for the "cheese" pizza we received and the not so great service. Hope they do better in the future.

Stop here on our way to Topsail Beach. Great atmosphere! We had a new waitress and I ordered the ham club with no tomato and hot. It arr8ved cold and there was tomato juice on the lettuce so clearly they knew the order was wrong and they corrected it by simply taking the tomato off the sandwich instead of remaking it. More importantly it was not handicapped friendly. The handicap parking space is far away from the entrance door. When I asked if we could exit using the emergency door which is located right in front of the handicapped space, we were told no. The bathrooms, although the stalls are wide, they do not have handrails. In this day and age, all public places should be ADA compliant.
