No place to sit and watch TV. Bugs in the sink and gnats in the shower every day. We left a day early it was so bad. The killer is no maid service!!! You have to go to the front desk to ask for replenishment. I was supposed to stay three nights, left a day early to the screams of my children. The clerk at the front desk was hesitant to give me four towels and washcloths, like I was stealing from them. I will not return. Too high price wise for no maid service. Location is nice, but not worth the trouble to get fresh linens and towels.

It's a fun little spot with indoor and outdoor seating right off the beach if that's the atmosphere you're looking for. The place itself has a great laid-back beach-bar vibe however the attitude behind the bar just didn't quite match it. The 3 star rating is primarily based on that fact. We took a weekday trip to the beach at the end of July and were pleasantly surprised to find Tacklebox Tavern open late on a Sunday night and it was karaoke night too! The bar was fairly busy for a Sunday, with a fun mix of locals and travelers and an age range that seemed to go from early 20s all the way into the 60s. The crowd was friendly, the drinks were cheap, and the atmosphere was exactly what we needed for a fun Sunday night at the beach! My biggest complaint was the service. The bartenders consistently seemed annoyed and irritated, and at times it felt like simply ordering a drink was an inconvenience to them. I completely understand that working behind a busy bar can be hectic, but the attitude was noticeable enough that it took away from an otherwise really enjoyable experience and was mentioned by multiple patrons. A little more friendliness behind the bar would have made this place a home run for us.

Beautiful, jazzy, Art Deco space. They had wonderful cocktails to choose from, cold draft beers, a big wine list, and very interesting food. We felt like just tapas, we got the empanadas and the "naked" egg rolls. We also got one order of smoked mac and cheese. The empanadas were too hard. I wish they were a little softer, but the egg rolls were delicious, and the mac and cheese was shockingly good. Probably the best I ever had. They have these really cool individual rooms that you can rent with friends if you want to make a special night of feeling like you're in a different world back in time. Definitely worth a visit.

We enjoyed the watermelon carpaccio, fried green tomatoes, garden risotto with added shrimp. Everything was very good. The tomato portion was enormous and the beer batter was crispy and light. The risotto? It wasn't really risotto, it was more like a creamy rice but it was delicious. And those shrimp were big, juicy and tasted like they just came out of the sea. The watermelon, though, was a shocker. It was grilled! It had a really great smoky flavor that was totally unexpected and the dressing was light and fresh. We always sit at the bar and the service is always on point.

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.
