Having an ordering counter off to the side, defeats the purpose if you're going to have your bartender is taking the order all it does is leave people at the bar waiting to order drinks. Two brats and two sides is what I ordered, and it turned out to be one brat split in half on a roll, not even a bun. My friend got fish that was so greasy he could hardly eat it.. what a shame

Highly recommend. Came in with a group of 10, I thought we’d be an inconvenience for staff once they found out but no, the staff was quick to accommodate us! The staff was great! The service was great! The food…so
good! Best hush puppies I’ve ever had and I don’t care for hush puppies. Free bingo was unexpected but fun especially since my daughter won! We will be back!

This is a really cool spot if you're thirsty for a cold one or if you want a margarita. Also has a full bar with a nice selection. The food was delicious with an assortment of things to choose from. It has a game room in the back with a pool table and a dart board with also a patio with tables outside. Loved the vibe.

Let me start by saying that we love supporting locals and dive bars. We will pay more for service comparing “shrimp to shrimp”.

The atmosphere is classic dive bar. ⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

Allow me to set the scene. Picture a warm August Saturday night around 7:15 pm in a small beach-adjacent town. You’re hungry and figure since you are literally at the gulf cost, what better place to get some shrimp than a place with shrimp in the name.

We walked into the dainty establishment where there was ample seating even though there is apparently nightly free BINGO. We were greeted by a lady from behind the bar that handed us paper menus and were told to sit wherever we wanted and come back up to the bar to order.

My wife and I had just about decided on our choices and were about to get up to go order when the same young woman walked over to us and asked if we were ready to order and if we had more guests coming.

We told her “no” on both accounts. She told us that there were plenty of 2 and 4 tops available as we were seated at a ten top. Now, remember when she did not seat is and told us to sit wherever we wanted. Well, we wanted to sit away from the BINGO and not in the middle of the room.

She continued to grouse about all of the empty seats as she ambled back to the bar.

We looked at each other and almost simultaneously said “let’s go”.

If bingo, no crowds, and rude wait staff are your cup of tea; then this is the place for you

RUDE!! We walked in to eat and the bartender told us to grab a seat. We did. Then she came over to us …extremely rude and condescending…to tell us to pick another spot..?? And she said it very loudly so that the other 10 whole people in the place heard it too. We were looking forward to try the place. But no thanks! We just got up and left after feeling humiliated. Keep your “Free Bingo”!! And your fried food that’s not even fresh seafood!
