Slow service Hot in restaurant Food was good Had to use same glass on beer refill draft read more

Food was good but the fish and collards lacked seasonings The service was good but understood because it was busy Ambiance was good because it felt cozy and right Music bingo was entertaining with the host who was great read more

Fantastic small town, local "Pub"... Bar in the front and Bar / Restaurant in the back... Great to visit my Car, Bike or Boat.. Food is fantastic.. Can't go wrong with the seared Tuna App and a Pizza. Beer is always cold and the staff is super friendly and attentive. Cassie and Alissa make me feel like Norm from cheers. Always have a cold Miller lite on the bar before i sit down. Nice new owners about a year ago that have improved the menu and expanded the hours. Worth the drive, or definitely a quick stop over if you find yourself between Washington and Belhaven and the wife is getting "HANGRY".. read more

Blackbeard's Tavern is a close quarters seating and small bar with a local vibe which has great tasting food and cold beer at a great price, friendly and personal staff who make you feel at home even if you're a tourist. The food is fresh and full of flavor, I originally ordered the Lobster roll and they said they were out so I ordered the smash burger the first night, well fortunately they found a (Hot) Lobster roll and ended up giving it to me at no extra cost which was a great treat! Definitely visit here if you're visiting the area, you won't be disappointed. read more

So my son and I wanted to try some where new tonight and I'd seen Blackbeards and thought it would be nice to try and sit outside along the "creek." Well the outside seating def isn't along a creek it's on the side of the building and it's not much so we sat inside. Once inside Caroline our server was so nice and friendly and she's pretty much the only reason thy are getting any stars. So we ordered the moon mozzarella for an app and it was good but just thicker sliced provolone slices cut in half and not very evenly and only 3 half pieces for $13...then online entrees are listed as coming with a side...yeah that no longer happens and you have to buy a side if you'd want one. We went with a pizza...just the 12" cheese and my son got three toppings on his half and I got 3 on mine...well toppings were $1.50 each so normally it's half that price when it's only on half....well not here so a 12" pizza cost is $21!! Also their pizza sauce has some spice to it so I'm sensitive to spice so I barely made it through one small slice. We will not return here and I'm very disappointed in how they advertise verses how it really is when you're there! read more

Casual, lively bar, good service, tasty pizza, and not much else available in town. Good choice! read more

Blackbeard's Tavern - Menu January 2025 - Pizza Near Me - Bath, North Carolina

Honesty and integrity is rare these days. Imagine my panic when I realized that I accidentally left my credit card on the bar! The bartender scooped it up and kept it safe! THANK YOU!!! Food and service were an added bonus! read more

New menu is excellent. The new owners are super dedicated to the customer experience! There is a stand alone bar that is always popular and busy and on the parking lot side is the restaurant and bar with booths for dining in. The pizza is a delicious NY style and the yummy oysters are locally sourced! read more

We were visiting from San Diego and happened upon the town of Bath. Blackbeard's Tavern was an easy choice for dinner and it did not disappoint. My son LOVED the hushpuppies! Chicken wings, salad, and Jamie, our bartender/waitress (who doesn't usually work the bar) was so kind and personable! We were lucky enough to have arrived the day their t shirts came in so we bought 3 to remember the place by :) read more

Amazing food! The bar and restaurant has a great atmosphere! The service is great no mater which server you get, but ask for Rachel she is the best! read more

New management! It seems like they really care more than the previous owner. Service is great and they're working hard on an updated menu. I really enjoy their pizza, the area is kind of a food desert, and it's great to have a good pizza so close. They still have the rustic coastal pirate ambiance! P S. Tip your bartender ! read more

Stick with the pizza. There is no dinner menu. I ordered a flounder basket, received 1 small piece, 1/8 cup of slaw and a side of onion rings. No hush-puppies nor bread. BBQ sandwich was less than warm. No additional sauce was offered nor available. Catsup and hot sauce on our table were empty. What I received was not worth the price. Staff was doing their best. We were disappointed. Perhaps I'll try again later. Is it possible some of the negativity is warranted? Don't be rude. read more

Used to have lots of choices. Great menu. Now it's got nothing but pizza and a couple of salads and sandwiches. We came for their flounder. No more anything. Very sad. read more

Popped in here for a quick bite after Bath Fest. The restaurant has a bar/tavern feel, so definitely lived up to their name. Service was good, the server was very nice and friendly. While not exactly a gourmet spot, the food was solid with big portions. My girlfriend had the chicken parm pasta and I had a meat lovers pizza. On Wednesdays they have BOGO pizza night which is an excellent deal. We both had crushes with our meals and would get them again. This isn't a spot I would go out of my way for but if you are in the area it's worth popping in for a quick meal. read more

Best fried oysters around. Very few seafood places know how to fry shrimp or oysters right. This place does.

Third time trying this place and we are done. $42 for a small cheese and a 16" with pepperoni/hamburger/green peppers/onions. Pizza had 7 green pepper slices on it, 3 tiny onions, hardly any hamburger. If you are gonna charge that much make it worth it. We would rather drive 20 mins to Washington than 5 to here. read more

Good food, good service... 'nuff said! They changed locations a while back . Hope food is still good.

We enjoyed both the food and atmosphere. We ordered the kids Mac and cheese for our youngest who enjoyed it. (It's a Kraft style so it's what they're used to) Pizza, a Caesar salad with grilled chicken and a side salad with mahi mahi. All three were delicious. The chicken was soft, seasoned and grilled to perfection. The mahi mahi complimented the salad well. Definitely recommend and will be back. The mermaid water was as yummy as it looks. read more

Blackbeard's Tavern - two drinks on a table - Pizza Near Me - Bath, North Carolina

Good pizza, good drinks good food all around with reasonable prices. Interesting people visiting the area. Always good conversation.

Great food! Love the crispy buffalo shrimp app. Pizza is crispy and delicious! Always have great service Real home town feels, great atmosphere! Highly recommend! read more

Is is the best food you'll ever eat? No, but the pizza is fresh and hot, the burgers are massive and tasty and the beer is cold! Located adjacent to the water, if you choose the correct seat you can watch the boats on the water. The appetizers (try the pickle chips) are tasty and the service was friendly with a smile. This is what bar food should be like. We'll be back soon! read more

Good pizza and appetizers. We were trying because it was a recommendation to visit by boat when we are out on Pamlico for the day. Nice outdoor area too. read more

If you're looking to go out and have drinks and listen to Live Music, this is the place to go. Friday/Saturday nights have Live Music on the back deck and a DJ inside, after 7pm. Staff here are great! Typical bar food on the menu with a Huge Beer menu (40+ draft beers on tap). Mixed drinks are always on point. If you're looking to bring the family and want more of a quieter experience, go between 11am-4pm. read more

Blackbeard's Tavern - Nachos - Pizza Near Me - Bath, North Carolina

Other than the limited hours, and the fact that the keg of my favorite draft beer had run dry, this little place was quite refreshing. The bartenders and servers are helpful, attentive and friendly. I had a salad that was fresh and delicious, but on my second visit the kitchen had closed at 8 pm, so I missed the special (shrimp & grits). Hard to grasp a "tavern" that closes at 10 pm, but Bath is a pretty quiet little town. read more

Blackbeard's Tavern - Bar and television. - Pizza Near Me - Bath, North Carolina

Pizza crust used to be a fluffy pillow, now it's straight from the freezer. Tomatoes on pizza were canned. Absolutely disgraceful. And they got rid of the pickle pizza?!?! They won't make it for you even though it's essentially their white pizza + pickles + balsamic drizzle. Service is slow and apathetic, as always. read more

Atmosphere was okay, but there was a fly problem and we saw roach droppings on window sill. Food was okay, but they were out of all alcohol and food came out fairly quick. People were nice enough, but they had no shame in dropping the f-bomb multiple times in front of children. Pickle fries didn't taste like pickles, and the burger was dry enough to be used as a sponge. read more

Lisa is a hard working bartender that makes a great fresh squeezed grapefruit crush. I enjoyed our stopover while cruising on the bike everything is fresh made read more

We've noticed the crowds on our way through Bath and figured something special was happening. We came last night. I ordered fried shrimp and my wife got a burger. The shrimp were large and lightly fried...perfect. The burger was, well it was a burger, but the house made chips were outstanding. Great bar, wonderful atmosphere, attentive staff, good food. We'll get a pizza next time to see if they do as good a job there too. read more

Blackbeard's Tavern - a tray of fried shrimp and chips - Pizza Near Me - Bath, North Carolina

The food was good; however, the service was extremely slow and the place was very loud with some customers using offensive language.

Never got a chance to eat the food. I arrived at 7:43 pm. The bar tender who was very nice and said she would check. Owner came out and said the kitchen closed at 7:40 pm. I said thats crazy, your website say 8:00 pm. Owner said come back tomorrow. I asked him why his webite said 8:00 pm closing. He said thats when I leave. He deserves to go broke. read more

I'm sorry. Food quality has declined significantly in the past few months. Not just me as we've eaten here for years. recent visits by us and friends have been very disappointing. Can no longer recommend which is a shame as it's the only show in town, particularly for boaters.. read more

One star is generous. Met the owner...would have preferred not to. She is extremely rude. Interesting that all previous low reviews all involve the owners. Hmmmm. Miss the previous owners. read more

The owner is rude to the customers. He can't take the slightest bit of criticism. The food isn't of consistent quality. The bartender doesn't know how to make simple drinks. read more

Second time eating here in the quaint town of Bath. Food is delicious especially the pizza. It is a bar/restaurant but families do dine there. Probably best to go earlier. We left just in time because some people tend to forget their manners and their language. I feel that when the "f" word is being thrown into a very loud conversation and children are around management should politely say something. Wasn't even 8:00 pm. Didn't experience that the first time dined there so hopefully just a rare occurrence. read more

Waited 40 minutes for their equivalent of a Grandma's Pizza. It arrived with a burnt crust on the entire bottom of pizza. Very little taste. Complaint to owner went ignored. Hope he enjoyed my business as I will not be back. read more
