My friends and I decided to go here after leaving another bar. Some of us decided to stop drinking, one of us being the dd. This shorter brunette bartender rudely greeted us then came up and said who is drinking she then took three peoples ids and walked away she comes back out and tells them they can’t drink then says “you walked in and half your group sat down” this is ridiculous just because people don’t want to drink doesn’t mean you don’t serve others in the group and assume they are underage. Our friend turned 21 two days ago and was told her Id that is slightly bent was fake with no proof of a scan, even my id is bent from being in my pocket.
If you get lexi as the bartender.. she’s amazing but the brown haired girl is not nice at all. Went there for a whole week and then when a new bartender came. short, big, and brown hair asked if she could see ID to the people who were drinking so only 3 of us showed IDs because our group (of 21+) didn’t all want to drink. She proceeded to bring our IDs to the back room for like 5 mins and came back and denied service. Then was rude when we asked why service was denied. Just rude bartender.
Food was expensive but mediocre at best. 15 flies swarming INDOORS. Waited over 35 minutes got food as well

This waterfront restaurant has seating inside and outside. The outside seating has a nice view of the water. We appreciated being able to bring our dog to sit quietly at our feet at our table outside. We started with the Bam Bam Shrimp. It was a very large portion of large shrimp in a nice sauce. For our meals we ordered grilled and broiled seafood. The scallops and flouder were large portions and fresh and delicious. The cole slaw and fries were good, too. Server was attentive.
Strictly average food. The baked potatoes were good as was the fried shrimp, but the oyster plater was grossly overpriced for small non plump fried oysters. Loud customers in the dining room didn't add to the experience, better to have eaten on the porch which has a nice view.
Recently visited for the first time. We went around 3:30-4pm and it wasn't busy. We had carry-out orders for 5 people, so we sat at the bar, and had a drink while we waited on the food. View was awesome, as well as the service. Food was ready in a timely manner, and we took it back to the house and ate immediately. Flounder was very good, as was the crab cakes. Other got scallops and were very satisfied, and the blackened grouper sandwich, got great reviews!! I would certainly recommend giving this place a try!!
A GREAT dive bar with a GREAT bartender -- she was fun, funny, attentive and quite nice. Seemed to be a good crowd of locals who were all very nice. Great selection of drinks. Looks like they've got regular events including live music and they also have food trucks that, from the description, sounded tasty. If you like dive bars --- check this place out for sure!

Terrible food. The shrimp was cooked in old fishy grease. Coleslaw was not edible. The oysters were improperly cooked. Will never go back and will warn my friends and family to not waste their money. Very expensive. Dropped 400.00 dollars, this is what major regret feels like. Oh, and we bought 1 beer and 2 small cocktails.
Great place
Love the new pool tables!
We eat here every year we visit Topsail. My family really likes the food. We have sat both inside and outside. The view is beautiful from outside, Highly recommended the hot crab dip appetizer. Definitely pay the $2 up charge for extra pita bread. Good selection of food for all.
Great local business. Amazing Staff plenty of parking.
