4 Best Beer Bars near Southport

“Such a fun place to check out when visiting the area! The gelato flights are so much fun, and a very unique experience. There are plenty of wine and bear options, and the outdoor patio area is great to sit, hang out, and listen to live music.“

“My favorite coffee shop in Carolina Beach has always served beer and wine but now it’s expanded its upstairs into a craft-cocktail lounge called “Shag Bar” with a cool speakeasy vibe. Nicole, former owner and lead bartender at Shagri La, has done an incredible job creating an upscale experience right on the Carolina Beach boardwalk. Tastiest cocktails in CB!“

“I originally only wanted to stop in bc I knew The Summer I Turned Pretty used this bar for a filming location so I drug my husband in lol BUT we both loved it!! It's definitely a stop we'd make again! It's a super cool dive bar!! You walk in, either order from the bar or go into the walk in cooler and pick any drink! There are tons of options! Once you have your drink, you're set to either sit inside or you can go out back and enjoy your drinks in the super eclectic and ultra cool outside space. They have tons of outdoor seating areas set up and so many neat things to look at. We highly recommend it!! Definitely worth the stop!!!“

“Great experience at Nollie’s! A must stop during your visit to CB. We went twice during our weekend trip. Heads up, they don’t have their own parking so you will have to park elsewhere or walk. Luckily we were staying within walking distance. Also it is a very small place with minimal inside seating, highly recommend going during an off-time and sitting at the bar to get the whole vibe!My order/recs:Ground beef tacoBreakfast taco with baconMahi taco (grilled)Chips & salsa samplerI also got the steak taco on my visit but didn’t feel it’s as up to par as the others!“
