Open on Easter. What a find. The view is absolutely breathtaking. They even have mocktails here and a food menu. And the Easter bunny made a special appearance.

Out of the 3 pier-located tiki bars on the beach, this is the best. Unassuming tiki drinks with tons of flavor. The winner was the Painkiller (pictured). Draft beer, cans and bottles, and an impressive spirit selection for such a small bar.

It was a cold rainy day when we stopped by. The food was hot & delicious. A hot spiked apple cider was perfect for the weather.

This place is GREAT! It's where the locals go. The Tar Heel hot dog was fantastic. Messy, but one of the best dogs I have ever had. Great location on a large peer. The owner/manager was very friendly and is constantly evaluating feedback from customers on things to do. Totally worth your time.
