From the very beginning, she was incredibly responsive, addressing all my inquiries and offering valuable suggestions throughout the planning process. Katelyn and the entire staff at Wrightsville Beach Brewery were fantastic and accommodating. The food was phenomenal, and the venue received numerous compliments. The evening surpassed all expectations. I enthusiastically recommend Wrightsville Beach Brewery for events or simply for enjoying their delicious food and beer.“

“It was my first time at Covey. We had octopus and it was delicious! Potatoe Pave - good. My friend and I split the 22OZ KC 45 day dry aged. We ordered medium rare and the temperature was fine. I thought the steak was slightly underseasoned. My friend thought it was seasoned OK. The fries and broccolini were good, but nothing I'd rush back for. Our server, Brook, was great. The right amount of attentiveness and engagement. We tried the white chocolate tort and affogato. Very good. Overall, the food was good, not great.“

I would highly recommend this place. I know I'll be back!“
