    Food is excellent. New cashier in-training did great! Recommended by friends and they were right! Multiple people ate multiple meals. All were great! Good process for getting orders ready. We did not wait long once we ordered. It can get busy. Be patient. It is worth the wait. View of landing is good. Atmosphere is not their focus. Order. Get your drinks. Water outside. They will call you when your order is ready. Seating inside and out on screened porch. Worth the stop!

    Lunchtime!

    You grab your beverage, walk up to the counter, place your order and they call your name over a speaker from the dining area when your order is ready. They have condiments, utensils and water on the outside porch. The same people who call your name when your food is ready were also helpful with offering ice for drinks and they, and others, bus the tables when you're finished. We ordered the 1/2 chicken dinner $15.99 and the beef Brisket plate $16.99 (each plate comes with 2 sides). Portion were very generous for the prices but we found the meats to be a bit on the dryer side on our lunchtime visit. Food came out quickly, they have a small inside dining area and a larger screened room with more tables and a few fans for overflow.

    We were leaving Fort Matanzas and asked where would be a good lunch place. Captains BBQ was the #1 recommendation, we were told the locals go there. We then decided to go to Washington Oaks state park and were really hungry afterwards so I did a quick search for reviews and headed for BBQ. When we arrived it felt like they built a park around the restaurant, it was cool and had seating outside too. We were lucky, only one couple was ahead of us but by the time we left the place they had a line of people. When you enter, you order, they ask your name and when it's called your meal is ready and you can eat inside or on the enclosed deck. We chose the deck for the view of the river. My friend got the BBQ sliders, comes with 3, and said they were delicious. My burnt ends were great and I didn't need to add BBQ sauce or anything. The potato salad was different than what I was use to but it was still good, I was pleasantly surprised. I don't like everyone's potato salad. The beet salad was basically beets with feta but it was good too. Totally worth going. When the manager stopped to ask f everything was good that was the cherry on top.

    Ahoy, mateys! Sail to Captain's BBQ, At 5862 N Ocean Shore Blvd, Palm Coast, FL 32137--it's true! Service zips faster than a pirate ship's gale, Pulled pork so tender, it'll make your taste buds wail! Collard greens dance with smoky delight, And those baked beans? A treasure chest, pure dynamite! Best we've ever shoveled--honest to barnacles, no lie, could feast on beans alone, till the cows fly high! Captain John roams tables like a jolly sea dog so fine, Checkin' every plate: "Is your grub divine?"* We'll hoist the family flag and return with glee, Captain's BBQ, you're our culinary sea!

    Trio Sampler with baked beans and green beans

    Love the view of the inter coastal and Good BBQ and Blues music. That's what Captains BBQ offers. They have great burnt ends that often sells out early. My wife and I split the trio sampler because she likes the smoked turkey and Cole slaw. I like the sweet BBQ on pulled pork and beef brisket sliders. We go here once a week. Try it...,

    Burnt ends with a sausage link cornbread smoked beans and mashed yams

    I ordered the burnt ends with smoked beans, mashed yams, cornbread and a link of sausage. The burnt ends were really good and moist. The smoked beans have a couple different types of beans with plenty of pork in them. The mashed yams were nice and sweet. The sausage was good and smoked with a good kick to it. The atmosphere is not very and laid back with boaters and fishermen coming in all the time. It's a great place to watch the boats and sunset. Service is great with quick order times and they are walking around making sure the customers are satisfied.

    Burnt Ends sandwich and baked beans

    Stopped by Captains Bbq before going to fish market. It was very crowded but we were able to order and get seated quickly. We all ordered the burnt ends sandwich and sides of beet salad/feta cheese or baked beans. The food was great. Burnt ends were perfectly cooked.

    Had early dinner on Friday afternoon (4/25/25) -- place closes at 7. Plenty of parking. Walk in and order (easy), find a table outside, wait for your name to be called with your food. I ordered a pulled pork plate (comes with 2 sides) with smoked beans (superb) and mashed yams (a bit sweet, still excellent); pork was fabulous. They offer three types of bbq sauces: regular, hot (not too) and tangy (very). Very informal atmosphere, with a view of the Matanzas River. This is the real deal. A big group of us had ordered family meals a few days ago, giving me a taste of several other offerings: ribs are magnificent, mac and cheese good; everything is good. Highly recommended.

    Great food, good, quick service. A consistent restaurant. Good view on the porch. Just the right amount of smoke in the meat.

The spacing is very small so I can see a line out the door on weekends or during rushes. As for the cookies they have a variety of them with smaller or bigger ones. The flavors switch weekly so check the location before you head over. The cookies themselves where bigger than your average cookie and dense. A cookie is in the $4 range and about $22 for 6. They show you your box before handing them to you and came warm. I am not sure if this is every time but nice if it is. The cookie I tried was the chocolate chip and was definitely enough for someone to split. I ate a whole one and have a cookie brick sitting in me. The flavors were nice with two types of chocolate and salt, a little too much dough and not enough chocolate to balance it out. Gideons Bakehouse does a great job with that but definitely a different cookie from Crumbl. I look forward to trying the other flavors I ordered but with the pricing it's a special occasion type of stop.

It was left on my front porch. 21 minutes later I arrive to a limp box filled with ants. The cookies were gross from the heat, much less the ants. Apparently a little effort, sealed bag, and cool pack was over and beyond. Buyer beware of deliveries from this store.
