Bay Local Eatery

I came here with a group of six women, and was told a 45 minute wait and that I would receive a text message. There was a bridal party of about seven women, behind me, also waiting for a table. My group waited next to the dollar store by the restaurant. After 30 minutes I went in, and was told we still had to wait. At the 45 mark, I went in and was told our table was given away and we would have to wait longer. I come to find out they went ahead and seated the bridal party. They did not send me a text message as they said, and it was confirmed. I had a pregnant woman in my group and was not about to wait longer than the additional 30 minutes more they wanted us to wait, in the hot sun with no seating available to wait. The service was unfriendly, staff did not care, and ultimately I'm not going to beg for a table at a place that I patiently waited well over 45 minutes to an hour for. I just moved to the area, and was told good things about this place, but it will never have my business, it was super unprofessional. We ended up eating next door. For the future, offer reservation services if you can't seat and would rather cater to certain groups of people.

Very low energy place and my waitress reflected it. Asked for the kitchen sink without cheese due to being lactose intolerance, it came with cheese and the ham was also cut into half inch cubes. My wa

Absolutely loved it!

We ate on the patio which was beautifully decorated. The food and service were great!

Nancy is the best!

This place is one of the best local spots for brunch. Delicious food and excellent service!

Food is really good and service is awesome.

This place is great. I loved the vibe of Bay Local. The staff was great and the food was even better.

Bay local never disappoints in the food department. I don’t know if I’ve ever gone wrong.
I got the sweet chili wings and they hit the spot. I got a side of fries and their fries are fire.
My problem is that it is soooo loud in there. There is no relief. My friend and I put napkins in our ears.
My other problem is that it took an entire 50 min to get our food. It was only 2 of us and I got wings and she got the one love breakfast. Nothing that should take such an insane amount of time. I get it it’s a Saturday but that’s not typical.
Our girl didn’t tell us her name so I don’t know it but she was good.
All the host girls look like they had long nights before and hate their lives. Really none of them seem like they want to be there.
Bathroom was bright and relatively clean.
The aesthetic of the place is kind of random. Animal skulls and fish on the walls and church pew benches and palm branch fans.
But go for the food it’s great. Sit outside if you can’t handle the noise

Bay local on Laskin Road was a disappointing experience. The waitress Miranda was great. I had a Kitchen Sink. The egg was filled with blocks of ham the one you buy at Kroger. One piece of an onion found and a peel of a tomato. The sausage was bleek cooked no taste. Lots of potatoes. The cappuccino ,we special ordered, was " coffee" with just milk in it. Our orange juice was freshen squized that was positive.
My girlfriend had pancakes(3) huge ones with cranberries ( countable few) her sausage was cut open and didn't look great very gray.
We got after she asked how was it a discount of 30% and the bill was still $63 dollar for breakfast. It was a disappointing start of the morning.

I've been a fan of Bay Local since the opening of their first location on Shore Drive. Today they have three locations with there newest on General Booth that I dined at today for lunch.

Parking is challenging nearby when busy. However there are plenty of overflow behind them. The lot and walk up was tidy.

My wife and I were greeted by a hostess and provided menus. Our waitress rolled up to our interior table with water and a reserve bottle.

The atmosphere is open with lots of nautical items. The owner Adrian is a huge outdoorsman. His wife Whitney is the fabulous decorator of all three locations.

The interior is divided up into three sections. All seating is table and chairs. The main bar is up front with restrooms. There is a small bar in the rear in operation on weekends. The exterior areas is where they really shine. The front has major seating space. The back has a nice area with a small bar operating on weekends when busy enough, which is often. There is also corn hole and other fun games.

Orders were taken and my wife got a burger with side of their famous tots dusted with Parmesan. I got the ten Parmesan wings app which is large enough for lunch size. Our waitress was friendly and smiled. The main issue with indoor seating is the noise. With around 50% capacity occupied it was almost unbearable. So do consider outdoors if noise bothers you.

Our food hit the table by a runner in around 15 minutes. Everything looked great, but they forgot my request for additional napkins request when I ordered. The wings are a wee bit messy. My wife enjoyed her burger and tots. The burger was cooked to her specifications. My wings were phenomenal with two blue cheese tubs. A side of carrots and celery is included.

Checkout was timely on a hand held machine. They do an automatic 18% tip with customers having the ability to add an additional 3,5,7% or leave as is.

Prior to departing I utilized the men's room which was tidy. I would recommend and return.
