The little bar was packed with basically no seats available which made it quite difficult to get service or to order anything. Bartenders rarely look up to scan the bar or make eye contact with any of the guests. My husband got a glass of wine, which was good. I got the frozen strawberry daiquiri, which was tasty but I'm pretty sure there was no alcohol in it. And if there was, it was barely anything. Meh experience. Ambiance was fine as they had a fire pit which was great to sit around as the temperature cooled down.

If you're looking for one of those places where everything just lines up--the weather, the food,…read morethe mood--this is it. Out on the pier at Tiki Bar & Ocean Grill, you've got a front-row seat to the Atlantic, and on a day like today, it doesn't get much better. Blue sky, sun hitting the water just right, and a breeze that reminds you why people have been coming to the coast long before fancy resorts showed up. Food Simple answer: they've got it dialed in. Fresh, well-prepared, and exactly what you want at the beach. No overthinking it--just good coastal food done right. That's how it's supposed to be. Service Friendly, easygoing, and attentive without hovering. The kind of service that makes you feel welcome but doesn't interrupt your view--or your drink. Atmosphere This is where they really win. Sitting out over the water with string lights overhead and waves rolling in? That's hard to beat anywhere. Now, yes--the beach itself has those big metal pipes running through for replenishment. Not exactly postcard material. But here's the truth: once you're up on that pier, looking out over the ocean, it barely matters. The view still does what it's supposed to do--makes you slow down and stay a while. Final Take Great food, solid service, and a view that carries the whole experience. Even with the beach work going on, this place delivers what a coastal spot should: good eats, cold drinks, and a reason to sit a little longer than you planned. If the weather's right, don't overthink it--grab a seat, order something simple, and enjoy it the way folks have been doing for generations.

Although, their pier was closed, but didn't ruin our time. 10/10 highly recommend!

Completely blew us away and surprised us! The food was spectacular! I had a Mahi fish taco that came in 3. Best fish tacos I've ever had to date and in the Carolina beach area. The shrimp nachos were spectacular as well with small chunks of pineapple, good melted cheese, etc and a nice mix of purple nacho chips. My Bahama Mama drink was fabulous and our Pinã Colada was homemade -not from a mix. It was served with a small dollop of coconut cream on top and a delicate dash of nutmeg. Perfect! This little tiki bar was the best meal and highlight of our trip! Who'd have guessed?! Go there!!!
