Freshly fried chicken my boys loved it. Good French fries. BBQ sandwich was good, maybe a little skimpy on slaw. Fair prices. Only negative is the booths are VERY tight seating. But good choice in the area.

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!!!

My husband and I had "date night" at Surf House while visiting Carolina Beach. This is the second time we've had dinner at this establishment. We started with the raw oysters and fish pate. Both were fresh and beautifully presented. For our entrees, I had the fish of the day (Golden Tile) and my husband had the Pecan Crusted Catfish. Both were delicious and worth the price. Lovely cocktails and wine list too!

They have so many choices for pancakes and other options besides pancakes too. They give you lots of food. Honestly my husband and I probably could have ate off of just one plate instead of us each getting separate ones. Good service too.

For our wedding day, we didnt hesitate going with Cape Fear Boil Co. to cater. Ty was exceptional with knowing what questions to ask and addressing food allergies with a few family members. He called a few days prior to the wedding to confirm everything and what Tim he he would be there. The food was perfect. So good, as the bride, i was first at the table to eat and i put an apron over my dress so i could dive right in. It was amazing! They supplied everything. All we had to do was eat up. For the price, the amount of food, and quality.... This was the the easiest decision for us. Highly recommend!! Thank you guys for great food and service!!!!

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

We stopped at the Kure Beach Diner today for breakfast, after reading other trip advisor reviews and looking at the diner website. It did not disappoint! We enjoyed good homecooked food from scratch and great, quick service. The southern grits were awesome and the biscuits were light and huge! Anyone from the north has not experienced grits until they have had southern grits here at the diner! Yummy!
