Everything was fantastic— the drinks, food, atmosphere, server— will be back! 10/10

The food was great but service could’ve been better. When we arrived we were standing at the podium for about 5 minutes while the wait staff was standing in the back talking without noticing we were there. The waitress was friendly but didn’t seem to like answering questions about the menu. Seemed as if we should’ve known but that will not deter us from going back.

We went there with 6 adults, 2 kids, and 2 dogs, having read their patio was dog friendly, which it was. The food was great and the service was just as good. Our group ordered a variety of main dishes and everyone was happy (how can that happen! ). The next time we're in the area, we will certainly go there again.

My husband and I ate an early dinner at Cowfin Thursday afternoon. I hate that we can't remember our waitresses name, but she was very friendly, honest and attentive. My husband had the fried shrimp, flounder and oysters and he chose slaw and fries for his 2 sides... it came with hushpuppies,also. He would rather have had calabash shrimp, but they didn't offer that. He really liked the slaw and hush puppies and said everything was pretty good. He did mention that the fried oysters were very small, though. I had the classic fried chicken wrap with fries and it was pretty good...it was a lot! I brought over half of it back to our camper. Before we ordered our food we ordered 2 margaritas. My husband just sucked his down, but we both agreed that they didn't taste anything like a margarita that we had ever had. I can't describe the taste, but I couldn't even drink it. Our waitress noticed that I didn't drink mine, so she brought me something else, but it wasn't much better. Just don't waste your money on a cocktail there, because you'll probably be disappointed. All in all it was just ok, but definitely not worth $80.00!! Something else I would like to add is about the seating area outside on the covered patio. I know we chose to sit there but, it was about impossible to maneuver your chair on the gravel concrete that the table and chairs were sitting on. I would also like to add that after being seated, something black got on my cream colored little purse...I hope it will come out in the wash. Upon leaving my husband noticed that his brand new red Vans, had black stains on the top of both of his shoes. Maybe it just wasn't our lucky day!

This one s a awesome location to visit while on vacation. The food was great and fairly priced. All of the food and appetizers were arranged in a neat way. The server was very nice and kept our glasses full. When stopping by Topsail island or just in the area do your self a favor and visit this establishment

I was looking forward to this place since so many of the reviews were positive..Unfortunately I was disappointed. I ordered the grilled chicken wrap, it was extremely greasy. The grease was literally running out the bottom. I hate sending food back but had no choice. The bartender was nice enough about it and they made me another one but the meal was somewhat ruined for me. Also the place is very tight inside, the servers can barely squeeze by.

We couldn’t agree on where to eat, so we landed at Cowfin and wow, what a win!
The food was on point and the service was next-level. We never had to ask for a thing—refills, extra time, to-go boxes the staff anticipated it all before we even thought to ask.
✅ Hot honey chicken tenders was solid 🔥 Mac & cheese skillet with bang bang shrimp = mind-blowing (ordering again, no question) Husband’s peanut butter burger = absolute favorite. Teenager had grilled chicken and said it was very flavorful.
Great vibe, fantastic staff, and food that hits all the right notes. Definitely recommend!

What a nightmare, can’t tell if the service or food was worse. Cold fried scallops and hush puppies
Place is normally decent, tonight couldn’t have been worse though. Ate outside, our waitress was abysmal. Nothing worse than cold fried scallops and hush puppies. Really disappointed, won’t be back!

Without a doubt the best burger to be had in the county. Great service + quality food + decent prices = repeated visits! If it weren't for the fact we are in Ohio I would be your own Norm from Cheers! Highly recommended.

We were there on Monday for a birthday celebration lunch. A group of 5 older gals, so you can imagine how that went. We definitely overstayed our welcome but luckily they weren’t too busy. Drinks were great, food was great and our server Kelly was amazing and especially tolerant/respectful of our age and ability to still have fun! Highly recommend the Cobb salad, Mac n cheese skillets, fried squash and onion rings!

First time going here. Didn't plan to be, but what a pleasant surprise. The food here is really good. You see the bar atmosphere and expect greasy bar food... not the case. We loved this place and plan to return, a lot. Surrounded with tvs.
