Tequila! That's the theme of this place. Several drinks available with, of course, tequila…read more Located on Front Street, right by Shuckin Shack. There is a smaller bar area in the front, though it is not always opened. The larger bar is in the back. Back area has TVs and plenty of seating. Don't miss the outside seating with side views of the river, along with a nice view of some hotel blocking your view of the river. The margaritas are damn good. Highly recommend. Crowd is mixed, with a edge to more younger drinkers, especially weekend nights. In case your wondering, no food. Just booze.

Tell him your order and then do yourself a favor and let him have creative license and you will not regret. This man is going places, he is an artist!

My husband and I decided to stop into the gazebo bar for some drinks before a celebration dinner…read more The bar wasn't busy at the time we visited & the bartender was extremely nice! He offered us the dealer's choice beverage which happened to be like a blueberry gin based drink- it was super delicious. The fact that it was only $10 was even better! My husband went with a bourbon based drink off the menu- he was also a fan. The prices are decent here & we will definitely be back to check it out. The areas around the bar with the fire pits seem like a relaxing place to unwind after dinner. The vibes are quiet and relaxing even though it's right in the hustle and bustle of downtown. We even have a wedding in October to attend that we may plan to stay over night here for.

We walked inside and were immediately greeted by the bartender. I ordered the coffee and cream, my husband had the Irish red and our daughter had some grape juice lol. Which Jessica was so nice to offer her. We found a cozy corner with a couch and a couple chairs and our little one was thoroughly entertained with all the books and games. They brew their beer in house, along with a few THC drinks and a full bar, if beer isn't your thing. We can't wait to come back for one of their many events or just for a chill day/night out.

Purchased a ticket for a beer and checked out the food trucks. Decided on a pretzel and beer. The pretzel was from Croftons - it had the perfect amount of salt on it . Had the Oktoberfest beer - beautiful color , taste was smooth and well balanced - not harsh, no bitter aftertaste. Definitely worth it.

Even my mocktail was really good! I also really appreciated that the bartender came over to explain that what I ordered might still contain a small amount of alcohol, just in case I was trying to avoid it completely. That really says a lot about the care and attention they give their customers.

Hidden Ships Distillery is truly a hidden gem in Surf City! I grew up in this area and now live in…read moreVirginia Beach, and I make it a point to tell everyone I know about Hidden Ships. I was never a big fan of any liquor, so I wasn't expecting to be impressed--but their gin and bourbon completely changed my mind. Both are incredibly smooth, flavorful, and unlike anything I'd had before. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and you can tell the owner and staff are passionate about what they do. Whether you're a spirits enthusiast or someone who normally skips liquor like I do, Hidden Ships is absolutely worth the visit. If you're anywhere near Surf City, do yourself a favor and stop by Hidden Ships Distillery. It's one of my favorite places to recommend, and everyone I've sent there has loved it. I can't wait to come back on my next trip home!

What once was the Dubliner is now the Greenfield Lake Yacht Club! The space got a bit of a…read morefacelift, now featuring clean & bright white walls, and some cute Penny tile behind the bar, but the rest of the space remains largely unchanged. The small modification to the appearance definitely changes the vibe from divey Irish pub to hip local watering hole that I feel is a warm welcome to the area. The beverage sections still seem somewhat limited to typical dive bar offerings, I do hope they expand a bit beyond the typical vodka soda-- I'd love to see a some what crafty cocktail menu (while still keeping it neighborhood & affordable) as they grow. Overall, really enjoyed the new vibe it brings ti the area!

The food, cocktails, atmosphere, and staff consistently make this one of our favorite local spots. The standout on the menu is the Roast Beef Sandwich. The combination of hand-carved roast beef, caramelized onions, brie cheese, arugula, and horseradish crema is absolutely incredible. Every ingredient works together perfectly, creating a sandwich that's both rich and flavorful without being overwhelming. What really takes it to the next level is pairing it with one of their homemade daily soups. The soups rotate regularly and are always fresh, creative, and delicious. If you're having trouble deciding, order a soup flight. It's one of the most unique offerings around and it never disappoints.
