Beachy open-air bar where everything smells like salt and fried shrimp. I had the crab cake sandwich — crispy outside, packed with real crab inside. Music’s up, drinks come fast, and the crowd’s a mix of locals and tourists just vibing. Nothing fancy, just good times by the coast.

I was super surprised by how spacious and neat looking it was! Plenty of various seating types and arrangements. Came here for an event and was super pleased with the vendor selection. Even though it wasn't super tasty, the food came out fast, and the chips and queso were large portions. I didn't have any this time, but the drinks looked great - they were squeezing fresh fruit for some.

Atmosphere and service are a plus. Food was okay, but portions were rather small. The Shack Burger definitely needs more flavor. I couldn’t taste the cheese nor the chipotle mayo 🫤

Great atmosphere and family friendly during daylight hours. Once the sun goes down it's a well known social hot spot

Place is nice, and I mean VERY nice. But I came by myself only had 4 double shots of captain Morgan. When I asked how much my tab was it showed $120 something didn’t seem right. But the receipt didn’t have the drink price listed on there. I got to other bars and have the same kind of drink with double shots and I pay the reasonable price of $60+ dollars so idk if they’re just overly expensive or if they charged me for someone else’s drink.

Went to the worst food festival here. Portions were ridiculously small. And only accepting cash in 2025 is WILD.

This place is INSANE. The grilled salmon is pricey but so worth it. Especially if you are a veggie person like myself. I could’ve had a whole plate of those veggies and been content. The atmosphere was picturesque with plenty of photo spots, and places to just hang out with your friends. 10/10 will come back again.
