“First learned about beaches four years ago. Just went for the first time yesterday. Wish I had gone sooner because it certainly did not disappoint. We ordered a Philly cheesesteak and two different burgers. The food and the service was excellent. I will certainly make beaches a regular place to eat whenever I’m craving a burger.”

“Came down to Coastal Wine & Tap for spring break. Must I say it was a delightful experience with amazing people & good personality’s.

“Love Sharky’s Waterfront Bar & Grill!”

“I had my April 2024 wedding here and the experience is almost indescribable. I had this venue booked for more than a year, and as you can imagine, I had a lot of questions. I communicated with the manager, Marnie, more than 100 times via email and I ALWAYS received a quick response with my questions answered even with my events months down the line. The food and staff at this venue are amazing. My wedding went off without a hitch and all the compliments were on the food, friendly staff, and beautiful panoramic views of the beach. The food was great! We served the pecan chicken and a pasta station. The guests raved about the chicken and waffle slider appetizer as well. As soon as the dances were over and we sat at our sweetheart table we were immediately greeted with food from Marnie and a staff member. This goes to show their level of professionalism and attentiveness. The kids' food was also served first and that impressed parents. I was told this was the first wedding that occurred and they were thrilled. I only have wonderful things to say. You will not be let down with any event you host at the Isles. Thanks Marnie!! You guys are amazing. I need to find another event to throw just so I can come back!”

“The whole experience was excellent, but Julie was THE BEST! She was so friendly, helpful, and she makes the best subs. This girl truly made this the best experience. We will be back just because of her!!”

“love this place. A big locals bar, but newcomers are always welcome”

“We arrived early evening on a Tuesday and the place was absolutely slammed. We put her name in for a table and went upstairs for a Tiki drink or two. Drinks were excellent. After we were seated our server, Riley took out drink order and reappeared quickly with water and our drinks. I have the captain’s platter and chose shrimp and clams and Anne ordered the shrimp and grits. Riley had warned us that it’s a large portion, but who knows what that really can be. Well, the food arrived promptly and the shrimp and grits truly was an enormous portion. Enough for two. Was creamy, cheesy, slammed full of shrimp, andouille and mushrooms. My shrimp and clams were lightly breaded and fried to perfection. Frankly, as busy as it was, I was surprised with the speed of service and the quality of the food. Absolutely recommend this place!”

“Looks like new management. Place looks much cleaner and the food is very good. We will eat there again.”

“Great dinner and atmosphere!”
