    We had so much fun. The appetizers were exactly what we needed. The server was adorable. The inside is clean and has a pool table. We wrote with chalk on the side walk!

    This was a 6" "margarita" pizza.

    If you're going to have a beer, it's fine. I would not suggest eating here. The restaurant needs a deep cleaning and better bar food. Everything we got looked as if it had been ordered frozen and microwaved. No one waited on us, we had to order everything at the bar. The restrooms smelled like a bad sewer pipe.

    Great spot to catch the game and grab a drink! We came here to sit at the bar and it was completely blocked off due to COVID, so we grabbed a spot next to the big screen to catch the PGA championship. There were a couple regulars that we sat next to and they were extremely friendly. The staff was also really cool and had some good jokes.

    Came in for a drink after a walking tour and before dinner. It's a casual sports bar with a good vibe. There are lots of daily drink specials, classic and rotating taps, and house wines. The food menu has some unusual items for this Northern. Loaded Totchos, Buffiyaki sauce, pickled jalapeños, pickle brine chicken sandwich, all sound delicious! Barmaid, Chelsea, knows how to suggest and make a great drink. This historic building was the Roudabush's Seed Store.

    This is a pretty large bar that serves bar food and has an outside and inside area. I did not try any food but I did have a drink and enjoy sitting outside where they had a DJ, outside bar, and several a TV's on the wall. Bar staff was friendly. In the women's restroom, the bottom of the stall doors were so high up you could practically see everything. I thought that was weird.

    Huge..  I mean HUGE fresh chunks of lobster meat.  The sriracha sauce I believe..  flawless

    I love the Husk for so many reason. The best bartenders, best chefs, wide selection. But now.. I've discovered their lobster rolls. See the pics.. you'll just have to try for yourself. I can't put into words the heaven in each bite...

    Middle of the afternoon on a Monday - it was me and several college girls at the bar. I had a Foothills Hoppyum IPA which was good enough and cheap at $4.00. Second visit I had a Blue Point White IPA also good. Decor is a bit rustic. Several beers on tap with a list of both draft and tap beers on a chalkboard. I will post a pix. Lots of smaller flat-screens near the booths, larger flat-screens at each end of the bar. Very busy and loud on the weekends; mostly a younger crowd.

    Bourbon and pbr special

    This place is growing on me. It's quickly becoming my let's-go-have-a-drink-go-to. The bar is huge and there's a nice little courtyard in the back. Really cute in the evening. In fact I almost hosted an event here, sadly it did not work out. The booths are quite large. Big enough for a large party. There are two half circle booths also. One near the bar and another towards the back, if you want more privacy. They have bar food available. I heard their grilled cheese is good but I haven't tried it. I plan to get the ultimate Bloody Mary next time. It's a Bloody Mary (which btw is the best in Wilmington. Take my word for it) served with a grilled cheese, tater tots and a chicken wing. I might be off on the fixins a bit but my interest is certainly peaked. Nice beer selection too. PS- they love dogs!

    Pool table is all the way in the back so it's got a touch of privacy.

    Pretty cool bar with a pool table and darts. Drinks aren't too bad, and they definitely didn't skimp on the liquor. It can get crowded (which isn't a bad thing, just makes getting drinks or playing pool a challenge). I got the wings there once and they were good for a bar that does primarily drinks.

    $3 well on Wednesdays

We started walking around and my wonderful wife suggested Copper Penny. Absolutely! There was a short wait for a table, but we didn't mind. The inside is almost like we remember it. We did notice the menu is a lot smaller. The last time we dined here was around ten years ago. Definitely plenty of options. We went with the onion ring appetizer, Cobb salad, and the BBQ Burger. The atmosphere of Copper Penny is the same. Definitely missed this place. After a short wait our food was brought out. Everything was delicious.

Started with sodas, a beer, and the dragonfruit mimosa (I didn't wind up drinking/liking the flavor- but also didnt say anything as honestly know my taste better. Sharing feedback for others that it is on the sweeter side- which you may love). Buffalo chicken sandwich, sauce on side with fries. Enjoyed, typical but large sandwich. Chicken pita, enjoyed- fries on side. Philly cheesesteak with Caesar salad side- really liked. Owner is from Philly, which made a difference. Grilled chicken with side Cobb salad- lots of cheese and mushrooms and onions. Super delicious bread- soft with some flake since still crunch and not soggy. Salad was fresh and delicious. Pork sandwich- my husband liked, it was good but I didn't love the meat flavor. Concepts with having spinach and such was great. Manager/owner(?) came by to each table too. Definitely worth a trip to explore- fresh ingredients. Next time the wings...

($40) They served us spoiled crab (smelled like ammonia) that was immediately swarmed by flies. Indoors. The woman who sat us pushed alcohol on us hardcore. Makes sense now. We literally said "Nah, we have to drive" and she openly pushed harder and encouraged drinking and driving. Terrible sales tactic. Terrible ethics. The only positive is the waitress who immediately gave us a refund, no questions asked. It's concerning that she wasn't surprised, but still. You'd think a beachside restaurant would serve fresh seafood. Edible, at least. This is a restaurant impossible candidate, no question. Insane.
