"Great bands. The best bushwhackers on the beach. This bar also offers an exceptional gift shop. I did not try the food just the drinks. The bathrooms were not very clean but it's a bar sooooo go at your own risk haha."

"Really fun place to go and couldn’t recommend it highly enough. Stopped by as part of a cross country road trip on the recommendation of friends. Great live music, strong drinks, and surprisingly phenomenal food (the Cajun Oysters were so good I had a second round). Mike and Ben at the front desk were so friendly that I think I chatted with them for 30 mins after leaving
Only annoying thing is a $5 cover which I understand during a busy period but not Tuesday mid-week in off season. It’s still worth it though"

"We only had a snack so I can't really say except on French fries with queso, they were good but very salty. But the atmosphere, it was unreal going to different levels to hear music, I loved it. They have a nice gift shop too."
