“ Excellent lobster roll...."The Greggah" The oysters (from James River Virginia) so good!! Love their Cole slaw. The walls are full of interesting photos, posters, handwritten letters and poems. The ceiling has so many caps/hats. Maybe I'll contribute a cap the next time I'm in town! ”

“ I ate here three nights out of four while at Carolina Beach. The oyster Trio is absolutely wonderful. I had it two times a night. Drinks are spot-on everybody friendly and service is excellent ”
“ We had been to the Wilmington location before, but this was our first trip to the Carolina Beach one. It's a bit small, but the vibes are top tier. We went on Monday to get the 1.50 oysters. They were great and they know how to serve them. Our child had the Low Country Boil and shared her shrimp. Those are the best shrimp I've had in Carolina Beach. The parking situation leaves something to be desired, but that's the way most places in that immediate area are. ”
“ Super cool little dive bar with great oysters and a dedicated portion of their drink menu to oyster shooters. If this is your kinda bar, I highly recommend stopping in. ”
“ Small but had some awesome food! We were there on a Tuesday and the wings were 1.50 each. The crab dip was absolutely amazing ! Drinks, we opted for the painkillers. They were fruity and delicious. We even got a free sticker after we paid. ”
“ 45 minute to an hour wait? ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT. We came here tonight on our first trip to Carolina Beach! We were blown away by the food. The cold crab dip is a must and the fried pickles rival any I’ve had! My mom and wife split the bucket and there was PLENTY of food for both. My sister in law and I both had the crabs legs, which were *chef’s kiss* We got cocktails and we agreed that the painkiller was the best of the three we had. The perfect cocktail to get you in the beach mindset. The service was fast 10/10 a MUST stop if you’re in the area. ”
