Food was decent, great beer, nice staff. But the bs with ordering on the phone then servers standing in the middle of the backyard trying to figure out what goes where is stupid. Just get paper menus and regular servers. They already have to walk around fetching things anyway.

We decided to eat here after a trip to the Children’s Museum, we were walking by and thought, “why not?” And wow, we were not disappointed. We didn’t know what to expect but were quickly blown away. I don’t usually like ordering online at the table, but in this instance it worked to our favor because we had three very hungry kids and food came out very fast once we submitted our order. I ordered a GF pizza for myself and my husband along with a regular pepperoni pizza for the kids, some Thai chili chicken wings, and a GF burger with pimento cheese. First, this is one of the best GF pizzas we’ve had in Wilmington (second only to Benny’s) even my husband, who doesn’t have to eat GF, just does in solidarity, agreed it was phenomenal. Everyone was happy with the chicken wings and we loved the burger as well. Everything was a little pricey bc we had to pay extra for the GF items, but honestly I have to say it was worth the price. Overall we are extremely happy with the food and next time we want to eat outside, we didn’t even know they had a huge outdoor patio space! We can’t wait to go back.

I’ve been here several times and the service is consistently poor. Staff are inattentive and unfriendly, food quality is unreliable, and follow-up after orders is nonexistent. The atmosphere is cool and the slushy selection is great, but everything else needs serious improvement. On one visit, a bartender even took menus out from under my hand before we had the chance to order food. We’ve also received stale chips, so much so that one even chipped a tooth. With some improvements in hospitality and consistency, this could easily become a much more popular spot.

IDK, maybe I will eventually just come to accept that there will be crappy (at best) to no (most likely) service at places like this, but I'm just not there yet. This was our second visit, same story each time.
Two people - two - roaming around, randomly asking tables (might ask you twice in 90 seconds, might not ask at all for an hour) if they need anything.
You are expected to order through a qr code on the table. When you do, you're food will arrive as it is made. Meaning that with a table of four, expect those 4 orders to arrive at 4 different times. Amd there could be a good chuck of time between fiest and last. God help you if you and your party do not drink at the same pace.

They also have something like 24 taps, but maybe half of them are empty.

If you have adopted and are okay this new level of, 'service', then you will probably enjoy your visit.
No pics, because I just dont care either.

We came in yesterday. 7/09. Party of 2.

The burgers are 100/10. So juicy and cooked to perfection! We’ll be back soon, for sure! I also loved the margarita flight. Very tasty and worth the money because I was definitely feeling good after consuming three of the four margaritas! I wasn’t crazy about the Cheer-wine margarita, but to each their own.

Service was not 100/10. We sat at the bar. The bar code at our feet was a hassle to capture on our phones. We were trying our hardest until our patience ran out. Our bartender/server was not attentive. We were 2 of maybe 6-7 people at the bar with 3 bartenders on hand. We came in at a slow time of the day. I have a serving background of 12 years and I was not pleased with the service.

The Atmosphere was really cool. We loved y’all’s horse/dinosaur design. We thought that was really creative. We also love that yall play trivia.

Besides the service, we’ll be back for your burgers, margarita flight, and trivia. I’m giving our bartender/server the benefit of the doubt because maybe yesterday wasn’t her day. She’s wasn’t rude. I just think her focus wasn’t on us. Just one of those days. 🫶🏽

All around great experience. I was DD so I took some beers to go (and they were yummy) and my husband enjoyed the vast selection of frozen drinks and spirits. The food was solid and service was perfect. So nice, attentive, and caring. Good food, good people, good drinks. What more could you ask for?

Excellent pizza, crispy wings and 1/2 price burgers on a Wednesday night. East coast IPA was tasty. We make our own dough and pizzas at home in a pizza oven. These pizzas were the best we’ve had in the area. Simple Sicilian style pizzas good sauce, nice tasting crust. No garlic after taste is a plus. We had a lovely waitress and she took our order. You can do on phones as well but this was definitely a better option. Wish I got her name. Atmosphere- we sat in bar, it’s a bar. There are other areas to sit in. It’s was a rainy night so wasn’t crazy busy. Will return
Almost forgot … I have a gluten free kid so having options for her was an added bonus

I’m writing to express my deep disappointment and concern following a troubling experience at your establishment. During a recent visit, my wife and I, both members of the LGBTQIA+ community, were subjected to blatantly homophobic behavior by one of your bartenders.

Not only did he make openly negative remarks about the LGBTQIA+ community, but he also proudly displayed homophobic images on his phone and made derogatory comments about other patrons, assuming their sexual orientation based on appearance. This behavior made both my wife and me extremely uncomfortable and unwelcome in what we had hoped would be an inclusive and respectful space.

We were shocked and disheartened by what we witnessed.

Update 7/1: Thank you for commenting Nick. Yes, please give me your contact information/ email me.
