Restaurant Style: Irish/American pub food and full barLast Visit: March 8, 2019Ambiance: Best time for an Irish pub visit has to be close to St. Patrickâs Day. The nice dark wood and tables looping the U-shape bar fulfill the pubby expectation but this is a Carolina Beach bar so there is outside seating on three sides. Probably the outside seating would offer more comfortable options for families with children. Service: Bar or dining options, we were met with grace and cheeriness. Even when we dumped a glass of ice water all over the table and floor, the staff evinced the most concern for our dry clothes and the absence of broken glass shards. Eaters not drinkers, we concentrated on the fish and chips and sinful chocolate cake. Both made a big hit. Other less common options include Bangers and Mash (takes me back to London), Shepherdâs Pie, and the local Brunswick Stew (after all, Brunswick is only a county away). Although the full bar offers lots of options, Iâm a sucker for the lucious Guinness on tap. Although I would call the bill of fare mostly bar grub, it arrives well-prepared with as much care as their good beers. Worth a trip to the beach.For Kids: Kids cheese qusedilla, chicken tenders, 6 oz.burger, fish and fries or grilled cheese with cheddar fries. Difference Dividend: Lots of live entertainment on the calendar ahead here. Call ahead for the options. On the food side, try fried Mac and cheese balls.Expense Account: Figure about $15 each without alcohol.Adult Beverages: Full bar.I love your details and how you provide some great information in your review!Thanks so much for your review â we appreciate it!

Walking the Pavilion and found this location. Atmosphere was nice and server got us seated and drinks followed. Good choices on the menu and food soon arrived. Server was prompt and kept the glasses filled. Got crowded soon after we arrived which told us we made a good choice. Will visit this restaurant again.

We went for the live music and drinks on Friday night and told that we had to sit at the bar. We asked for a table and told the servers that we didn't want to eat, but were going to have drinks. Although the patio area was nowhere near being full, we felt "unwanted" because we were only having drinks and left after 1 drink. The bathrooms were very dirty and smelled like raw sewage! You should give customers the option to sit at a table and simply enjoy drinks and the music and clean your FILTHY bathrooms!

Wife another couple and I dined here last night, our first time and believe me, it gets no better than this wonderful establishment. The wait staff was great and extremely professional, the entrees were second to none I have ever eaten in the County. Appetizers of Flash Fried Oysters Rockafella and Classis Carolina Crab Dip were tasty starters, I had the Bourbon Brasied Baby Back ribs, Wife had a Special of the day Crab Quesadilla, friends Wife had a Special of the Day Seafood Lasagna and her Husband had the Catch of the Day Grouper. I sampled the Quesadilla and the Grouper and both were Heavenly-Fresh off the boat. My BBR were fall-off-the bone perfect.We all agreed this food was prepared by Chef's that obviously enjoyed their Profession. Prices were reasonable. They are closed Sunday and Monday and will be open all year, so if you live in town, make the drive for a fantastic meal, prepared under immaculate clean conditions and served by a wonderful staff

Very busy place, depending on when you visit obviously, but worth a look. I had the flounder sandwich and it was the best bit of fish I have ever tasted. My wife had the shrimp sandwich and she liked hers too.

Now it is a bad sign at a seafood place when both the hostess and server said they dont really like seafood and could not make a recommendation. Chowder was a salty and lacked visible sea food. The seafood linguine had pleanty for sure and the duck was excellent. Maybe with the end of season staff is difficult to find but it definitely put is off that they did not seem to like the seafood options.

Live locally so have been here a few times. It is a nice venue on a sunny day..we went for lunch..sat down at table outside..table was dirty sand all over it I had to wipe it off..waitress said nothing just picked up my dirty napkin. I had the chicken sandwich which was good...my sister had the shrimp tacos special which was....meh...ok..nothing special about it..funny that you get a sandwich and there is nothing on the bun.completely dry as a bone..I asked for honey mustard..something...waitress said they dont have that..She said I could have mayo..which was brought out in a small packet..weird..these days many restaurants pride themselves on sauces and condiments that make for a great sandwich...NOT here !...the service was ok..not friendly at all..but sufficient..this place could elevate itself to a higher level..but Inguess they are not interested.

On a day trip from Wrightsville Beach, we saw it on the way as we passed thru Carolina Beach and are glad we came back for lunch. Sitting back from the road with very little free parking, you almost feel like you are in a tree house as you climb the set of stairs to the small out side deck area. Inside is small also,but it has a homey, beachy,relaxing atmosphere with beer signs and surfboards hanging on the wall. My pulled pork BBQ sandwich and slaw were great as was my wife's seafood salad with shrimp. All the food and drink prices were very reasonable with $3 Landshark pints. Our waitress was excellent and we will be sure to stop here again in future travels.Thank you very much!!!

Seems I picked a bad night to crave seafood. I suppose the scallops swimming in their own grease cut down on the need for tarter, cocktail or other taste enhancing sauces. Great waitress, she didn't even flinch when I asked for extra napkins to soak up the overly generous portions of their special sauce. Nice people!Sorry to hear that we didn't get it right for you Harry, we hate to hear that. Do you remember your servers name so I can ask them why they didn't get a manager to get you and your dinner squared away, we in the industry always find it easier to fix a guests unsatisfactory meal and experience while they are still in the building with us. Do me a favor when you are in the area again and are willing to give us another try, ask for Danny. I am the head chef/Kitchen manager and I would love to get you back as a fan of Jack Mackerels!! Again, My apologies and we look forward to serving you again soon! Danny Rose, Chef
