We went on a Thursday afternoon...the bar was surrounded by ladies when we walked in and it got…read morereal quiet...I felt like we might have been interrupting something but we ordered our drinks and they started talking again. You can definitely tell that this is a locals bar. After our first drink the ladies started to talk to us and I started to really enjoy myself. The bartender was friendly and drinks were on par for what we'd paid the rest of the week. Not sure why I expected this bar to be bigger because I knew it was literally a trailer. But it was decorated hilariously and it was clean. I would have loved to return that night for karaoke but I must be getting old because when I heard it didn't start until 9pm, I knew that we'd have to do that another trip. We'll try again next year!

Given its location, history, and regular expected clientele, the Salty Hawg is a great little bar…read moreto visit within Snead's Ferry. The tap selection is pretty decent and the staff are friendly and happy to help. Specialty drinks are not anything special to brag about but hey, it's not a typical expectation of a venue like this. The bar has two pool tables and a great little game section in the back. There is a great amount of seating within the place and it's outfitted with some extras (i.e. beer tubs, tiki bar, private lounging area) that can make those special occasions even more so. There is also a nice patio/smoking area outside if needed. The music is a hit or miss however. The live performances almost always satisfy, but when there isn't, the bar becomes similar to an early 2000's sweet 16. Outdated pop music and radio ruined rap tends to linger and the DJ's often CANNOT read a room to change it. You almost wish the jukebox was available for the crowd to keep control. All in all, if you need somewhere to kick back, get out of the house (or bricks room) then give the Hawg a chance. Just don't get the hopes up. It's a pleasant visit for anyone at least once.

Sandpiper Brewing Co is a welcome treat in Holly Ridge! For the locals, it's such a positive to…read morenot have to fight the bridge traffic to go out and enjoy yourself! Sandpiper is close to 17, so not far off the main road! The exterior of the building is crisp and modern with a super cute logo on the front entry. There are a few ways to enter the Brewing Co, as they boast a large deck that wraps from the front all the way around the side. The deck holds the most comfortable Adirondack chairs! There is room for the kids to play in the yard as well as the dogs to frolic about! Now that you're inside, you see the beautifully decorated space, with counter tops that look like the beach and ocean (see if you can find the shark tooth)! The interior space is roomy and you'll find some Sandpiper Brewing Co merchandise (if you're lucky!) It goes quick, as the owner, Ashley, tells me! Who wouldn't want to don the cutest logo for their favorite brewery, right?! The bathrooms are very well appointed with cloth, single use hand towels- what a great touch! Sandpiper Brewing Co has a great selection of hand crafted beers, along with their signature seltzer! Ashley will find something to your taste, or ask for a sample, everything is delicious! There is something for everyone, even juice boxes for the kids! You can bring our own snacks, but don't be surprised if a food truck is there, how convenient!

The pizza was really good, it's thin crust, and you can build your own by selecting things on the pizza form, or go with one of their pre-selected picks (meats, veggie, buffalo chix, etc). I also liked that there's a separate pizza lounge area if you want to sit and eat, or you can stay at the bar. Great beer selection, and of course I couldn't leave without grabbing a t-shirt. Will definitely eat here again!
