“It has been my great pleasure to eat and drink and socialize at Nola’s for thirteen years.

The faces are always friendly and the offerings always delicious! I’ve seen the interior redecorated one or two times, indulged in takeout drinks during COVID, had strangers at the bar buy my dinner twice, and so much more. Nola’s and the people who run it are a huge blessing to the community!

After all that time, at long last I feel compelled to exalt the Nola’s experience and tell anyone who will listen about a new offering on the Spring 2026 menu:

The Nashville Hot Chicken

A gorgeous pair of beautifully breaded cutlets in a creamy dill blue cheese sauce that sets off the hot sauce and complements the accompanying stack of red cabbage slaw and sweet & sour pickles. It is a festival of flavors and textures any way you bite it.
It’s been on the menu for less than two weeks and I’ve come up with excuses to go eat it three times so far (soon to be four thank goodness!)

So, hustle on over and order that chicken!!!“

“I met my girlfriend here!“

“Great place to hang out to play some pool darts foosball they got a jukebox they got food the only problem is the bartender had to go to the other side of the the bar to prepare the food so he wasn't up front much hopefully they can fix that but all around great place to go for weekends“

“GREAT FOOD ALWAYS ORDER FROM THERE VERY RESPECTFUL“

“Love this place. I Never had a bad meal. The staff are pleasant. I go on my 30 minute lunch. I have time to eat and drive back to work. Today I had a tuna sandwich and a bowl of Homemade New England Clam Chowder. The tuna was white albacore (amazing) and the soup was delish. Prices are reasonable. I really didn't want to write this review as I am now afraid they will get busier and I will have to call my orders in but it is well deserved.“

“Had the absolute best experience working with Steve Fluty. We are so blessed to have found him as our realtor! He was kind, patient, and truly wonderful to work with every step of the way. Not only did he help us find our dream forever home, but he also successfully sold our first home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!“

“Went for AZ If but highlight of the night goes to lovely ladies at the bar. Jamie and Iza were awesome. I definitely recommend picking up The Iza, a $10 drink made by by the same enchantress it has been named for. Trust me, for a bit of that Iza magic drink, $10 is a steal. Great atmosphere. If you head to the source for The Iza, tell her the Unicorn sends his love.“

“Hubby and I were just passing through town and the B&B we stayed at suggested Ocean Blue.
We sat outside and it was a beautiful evening and area to do so.
Service was on point and waiter/bar tender were very friendly.
Hubs loves raw oysters, they were a bit small but he said very tasty.
The happy hour specials are a great selection of drinks and apps with reasonable prices.
Main course was delicious. Crab cakes were actually crab meat and not a bunch of filler.
The homemade pasta....WOW! I gave up my carb allowance for the next week to have it and not disappointed that I did. The meat sauce on it was delicious and reminded me of a relatives homemade pasta and sauce.“

“This place always surprises me, in a good way. Always busy when we visit. Bumpers for the kiddos too. The food selection is awesome, they have a variety of choices from salads to burgers. I personally went with the chicken Caesar wrap-yum! They bring the food right behind where you bowl so you can snack, then play. Our lane had a slight computer malfunction, but they were quick to fix it. Fun, kid friendly atmosphere, we will definitely be back.“
