Typical bar/grill vibe with seating away from bar area if desired. Friendly staff interactions. I had the flounder platter special. The fish was well cooked and tasty. The hush puppies were a little overcooked. The only real issue was that service was SLOW. Server was slow getting to the table, drinks were slow to arrive, and food took forever to arrive. Good food, but they need to work on speed of service read more

This place has such great potential. We came here as a family of 4. We went to the movies and We were looking for a cool place to eat as a family before heading home. We found the cafe on yelp and we were impressed. We arrived and the place was very nice. Wonderful sports bar vibe. TV's and a nice bar However, not only was the atmosphere boring; the service was scarce. The waitress was nice. But she was more interested in having conversation with the guy at the bar. Serving us. I'm normally not big on giving reviews. But something is off here. Maybe the manager needs to be on duty. But it was obvious that we were not really a priority. We had a party of 4. We initially got the food for the first 2 people first. Then about 10 minutes later the other food came out. We ordered cheap stuff on the menu because initially we got a bad vibe. Like we didn't want to spend $17 on a meal when it seemed like it might not be worth it I'm glad we went cheap.... But maybe not. Our bill for for 4 people with one appetizer and 4 mediocre apps was $98. I can't honestly recommend anyone going here until they get up to par. And also the waitress didn't charge me for a beer and 2 drinks and a fry. I honestly think she saw the bill at over a hundred dollars and maybe was like " let my back some things off to make it under $100." I can't obviously confirm this. Honestly, if you want a beer or a drink; definitely stop through. But if you want to eat and have a family meal; don't go here The waitress was nice but barely checked on us because she was busy having conversations with the people at the bar. Not impressed and won't go here again. Unless I want a drink This place has potential. They just need someone on duty that can guide them. It was obvious that was the missing part. They have tons of potential. read more

Nice easy breezy new chill spot. Inviting attentive staff, everyone was welcoming and friendly. Passing through town hubby wanted a quick bite to eat. Point Break came up. This is a really nice new cafe, many tv's to watch games with fam or friends. Happy chatter filed the place good vibes. Ice cold beers flowed to the top of glasses! I didn't get a chance to see the drink menu, but YESSSS the bar had a GREAT selection of brands. Our meals came out quick. Too hot to bite fries came out last. We'll worth the short wait. Nachos with well seasoned chicken covered with melted white cheese sauce, tomatoes lettuce, diced avocados and jalapeños, small side of jared salsa. Hubby enjoyed his chicken salad spinach wrap. I really loved the wood upgrade tables, bar, and hi-top tables. The decor adds to the relaxing vibe. Point Break Cafe is a must go and enjoy chilling out with good food and drinks. read more

Bar is ok... but food quality and service has went downhill. It's a shame cause I love to support locally owned places.

We had some time to kill so my boyfriend and I decided to check out this place. One of the few he hasn't been to. We were greeted instantly. Our waitress was amazing and attentive. Food came out fast and there are no complaints with that! Everything was delicious. It just happened to be trivia night , which I declined at first , but then joined with him. So much fun. Decor was nice and festive. The crowd was funny. There is a full bar. read more

Food was good. Service was great. A bit pricey for small portions though. Atmosphere is a bit boring as well

Stopped here for a business lunch with two of our vendors. It was a recommendation of one of my colleagues. He said it's great for lunch and they have great sandwiches, so that was my expectation. From the outside, it is just one of many doors at a strip mall. But walking in, they have done their best to give the ambience of a bar and luncheonette at the beach. we were able to find a high top table along the wall that happened to have an outlet, which was perfect for a working lunch to plug in a computer. The menu was small, but with a good variety. I had a brisket barbecue sandwich with coleslaw and homemade mac & cheese all of which was wonderful. Of my vendors had a mahi sandwich which he also thoroughly enjoyed, and our third had the crab soup which he declared to be , amazingly flavorful, and for his entrée, he ordered sliders. The only downside was the sliders as they were patties as you would expect except on full-size buns. It made no sense. In summary, I would say that they did all the difficult stuff very well, and completely missed on the sliders. They should just put a line through that on the menu because there's so many other wonderful things there. And I will be happy to bring more business customers there in the future. read more

I came here by myself on a Wednesday evening. I headed to the bar and was welcomed immediately. The cafe is super cute with an ocean theme closely mimicking the movie Point Break which is super cool. I ordered the cheeseburger sliders and a garden salad with balsamic dressing. The salad was good. The sliders were delish! I was surprised to be honest. I didn't expect for them to have lettuce, tomato, & onions on them. This place seemed pretty cool. I would come back next time when in the area. read more

I didn't know this place was here and happened to notice when I left my doctor's office across the street. So happy I was hungry and had the time to check them out. My tuna sandwich was delicious. The fries came out hot and crispy. All the staff that helped me were very friendly and engaging. It's a combination cafe feel with a bar. TVs to enjoy your sports on, too. Check them out! read more

Hubby got their Pipeline Burger- supposed to be teriyaki and pineapple type Hawaiian burger- they left off the teriyaki! He ordered me a burger with mushrooms and swiss..they added bacon for some reason? I don't eat pork. Fries were barely passing- limp, no real flavor and seemed like they were just laying around all day. Hubby said the place looked nice though. read more

The cafe is very well lit and comfy. We were welcomed immediately and found ourselves a table towards the back. Our server got to the table quickly and was able to answer all our questions about the menu. Dad got a tall beer and I chose water. We got the friend pickles as an appetizer and they were good but a little heavy on the breading for my preference. Dad got the club with onion rings and said it was tasty. The onion rings were definitely on point. I got the Hawaiian burger which I very much enjoyed. I think next time I'll ask for extra teriyaki sauce and the fries were sooo good. I needed more of them for sure. I will definitely be back. read more

Super friendly staff, food was absolutely beyond delightful. We got oysters and stuffed shrimp for apps, blackened mahi sandwich (rip tide sammie) and shrimp Alfredo (Cabo wabo) with sweet potato fries as a side are served with caramel and syrup with powdered sugar (literally a dessert(. We are absolutely in heaven. I wish I could go daily. read more

Stopped in a couple times for drinks and appetizers. Had the lunch special chili dogs. Food was good. Atmosphere was good. Been coming here a few years now through all the name changes and one thing that has renamed constant is our bartender, Brittany. She is always great and social. read more

The food was very flavorful, and the drinks were very well balanced. Visited this location twice in a week as the food was that good and the staff was friendly and on top of everything. The restaurant is surprisingly spacious and the decor was modern. The Buffalo chicken dip and nachos are highly recommended so far. Give them a try and let me know your thoughts!! read more

I brought my family for lunch on a Saturday afternoon and was a bit disappointed that they were serving from the brunch menu since the regular menu had some interesting options. Service was friendly enough but on the slow side coming out of the kitchen. The waitress was not very familiar with the menu options and could not make recommendations. Our food: mahi-mahi and grits came with a lunch sized portion of fish, about 4 oz. (?) served with a relish/garnish over cheesy grits; both fish and grits were on the dry side. There was also a small portion of a sauce in the bowl; maybe it dribbled off the garnish. That sauce was too sweet for me but could be remedied with generous pours of Texas Pete hot sauce. The shrimp and grits featured the same grits which were dryer than we like but the shrimp were okay. My wife did not notice any overly sweet sauce on hers, although she had the same garnish over the shrimp. Both of the seafood-and-grits dishes came with fried potatoes/ home fries which the kitchen neglected to send out with the bowls. We had to wait about 10 minutes for the potatoes to be served. The chicken fried steak sandwich should have been pounded flatter before cooking as the meat was thicker and tougher than it should have been. Breakfast bowl with sausage, egg, and potatoes was okay; nothing special. The blueberry-bourbon sauce was not too sweet to enjoy with it. Although we did not have alcoholic beverages, they have an interesting assortment of novel cocktails, most or all of which have a summer-y beach vibe to them, and nearly all are sweet. There was a good variety of canned and bottled beers on the drink menu, too, though I cannot comment on how well stocked they were on them. Ambience was a comfortable suburban bar and grill setting. All tables but one were high tops. About half of the stools at the high tops had backs to them; the others were backless stools. Although I was not thrilled with my first experience here, I plan to return some day and give them another chance so I can try one of their signature cocktails and some things off their regular (non-brunch) menu. read more

Excellent service. Drinks are refilled often. Extremely friendly atmosphere. Great value and kids meals are a good deal. Will definitely become a regular customer. read more

Had a great experience here! Black berry wings are fire ! The fried green beans are soooo good. The sweet potatoes fries are so yummy. The owner was so nice ! Definitely will go back !! read more

The first time there, it was ok and seemed like a nice place to go. Food was good, service was slow, atmosphere was loud. This second time here, the food was tasteless, service was still slow and the atmosphere was nonexistent. Hardly anyone there. In fact the cooks/kitchen help were hanging out in the seating area. The wife got the mango mahi and it had absolutely no taste. I got a chicken sandwich that should have been very Cajun and was as bland as pasteboard. Will not be back. read more

Point Break Cafe - Hamburger with prime rib shavings, peppers, onions and mozzarella cheese. - American Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

I kept hearing how good this place is. Figured it would be typical bar food, which is fine. But it was more than that. Drinks are good and reasonably priced. It was 4 of us and we just shared appetizers. Blackened mahi bites, tuna bites, old bay wings , steamed shrimp and crab dip. It was all delicious. Definitely try the blackened mahi bites!! The atmosphere is nice and our waitress, Chelsea was great. I will be back to try some other things on the menu for sure. read more

We visited Point Break in hopes of finding a good bar and food, similar to the business that occupied this space in the recent past. We were sad to see the old place go, and simply hoped its replacement was okay. Boy were we surprised. The place has been updated with a decor and menu theme following its movie "Point Break" namesake. The food portions are right sized, their beverages priced great, and the people very homeplace friendly. The owner and management are all hometown locals and we have gotten to know them a little. Since discovery about a month ago, we have been back to visit multiple times. Every dish served has been excellent. Might I add it is not your typical bar food. Their shrimp for example is fresher and better prepared than the so called seafood place a block or so over. Their burgers are off the board, Point Break reference intended, and way better than the new chain restaurant down the street...as in B33. One other huge positive is the newness and cleanliness of the inside. I have watched a staff member clean vacated tables several times. I have literally been in awe at how thoroughly they engage this process. I am not joking when I say you can eat off the tables. That is a big deal in this post Covid hyper vigilante world. My only complaint is that much of their wait staff is too young to really relate/remember the Point Break movie. Am I really that old? I digress. read more

I had the Rip tide and it was very good. The wasabi aoli was better than expected. All in all, very good! We'll be back!

Took the kids for dinner. Food was great and service was excellent!! I got the Maui Mahi blackened, perfect amount of spice and well cooked. The side salad was huge and fresh! Kids meals were really reasonably priced, and kids loved them. Met the owner and can tell he's really passionate about creating another great restaurant in western branch. We will be back! read more
