We went on a Thursday afternoon...the bar was surrounded by ladies when we walked in and it got…read morereal quiet...I felt like we might have been interrupting something but we ordered our drinks and they started talking again. You can definitely tell that this is a locals bar. After our first drink the ladies started to talk to us and I started to really enjoy myself. The bartender was friendly and drinks were on par for what we'd paid the rest of the week. Not sure why I expected this bar to be bigger because I knew it was literally a trailer. But it was decorated hilariously and it was clean. I would have loved to return that night for karaoke but I must be getting old because when I heard it didn't start until 9pm, I knew that we'd have to do that another trip. We'll try again next year!

The pizza was really good, it's thin crust, and you can build your own by selecting things on the pizza form, or go with one of their pre-selected picks (meats, veggie, buffalo chix, etc). I also liked that there's a separate pizza lounge area if you want to sit and eat, or you can stay at the bar. Great beer selection, and of course I couldn't leave without grabbing a t-shirt. Will definitely eat here again!

They have a great draft craft beer selection and the bartender was super sweet and personable! Music was perfect as well. It's a small place but big on personality and we enjoyed the small town feel. My only complaint is that it looked open from the outside, no signs on and it's pretty easy to miss!

Despite the Steelers theme (Go Giants!) and the lone Giants Championship flag (YEAH BLUE!), it's not a sports bar it's more of an excellent family restaurant with the best food in the area. This was our 1st trip to Topsail and if we're lucky enough to return, this place will be at the top of our list.

If you love Salty Turtle, you'll love The Cove even more!…read more The Cove is a cocktail bar/event space that is owned by Salty Turtle. They carry a few of their beers to serve as well as wine and liquor. Ever wish you were having a cocktail at Salty Turtle while your partner was enjoying a beer? Well now you can! Hit up the cove and you can have the best of both worlds with no one compromising. The Cove is a "club" so you'll need to sign up for a membership at the bar before you can enjoy some drinks, but don't worry it's free to join! We enjoy coming here on Wednesday nights to play trivia with friends that is hosted by Meeser Eddie. My favorite drink to sip on when coming here is probably the spicy margarita. It's not on the printed menu, but you ask and your wish shall be granted!On Wednesdays they also offer $15 bottles of Prosecco. Yes you read that right $15 for a BOTTLE of Prosecco. Nothing beats coming to play trivia with friends and sharing a great bottle together. The staff here is always so friendly, it's clean, the service is fast & the cove itself provides excellent vibes. We love the cove & salty turtle so the hardest decision is usually choosing which one to go to... and sometimes we just hit up both!!

Which it is but it is also open a few days a week, one of which being on Wednesday nights at 6:00pm for trivia. The place is smaller but very cozy. The decor inside is super cute and the drinks are great. We got a tequila drink that looked beautiful and tasted very good. They also have beer and wine. Super cool place to check out and really excited for an upcoming event I am going to at their location too!

I enjoy their chicken salad sandwich on toasted sourdough. Today I tried the chicken salad BLT sandwich. Very good. They have several side options. My mom had the Stump Sound Bowl. It is made up of cilantro-lime rice, black beans, corn, peppers, onions, cheddar, lettuce, tomatoes and chipotle sauce. You can add a meat. My mom gets it without cheese or the chipotle sauce. She always ends up taking half of it home. Staff is always friendly and food is good.

I got the Boxer Dog and the Lab Dog plus a Flying Machine cream ale. Our server let me and my mom sample the beers/ales we were interested in and on our first sample we found what we wanted. I love places that let me have a sample of what's on draft when I'm facing a bunch of unfamiliar brands. My mom started with one Lab dog and her Teaches beer, but loved it so much she had to go back and get a second dog. That's a testament to how good everything is- she never goes back for seconds!
