The Rusty Nail is one great spot to be in Wilmington NC. The staff and patrons are the friendliest around and the live music on Tuesday night nights and weekends ranks among the best blues I have ever seen and heard anywhere!

A merry Christmas of years past landed me in a moment with Sandy when she said unto thee,”welcome to the tribe! It was a fun, oh so fun, Christmas party 🎉 💃 🕺 🎄.

amazing place.. very welcoming staff and regulars. live music and indoor outdoor seating make it very relaxing and warm... great people, SANDY IS THE BEST!!!!
