Very cool place especially to bring your dog while you put down a couple beers/drinks while you kick back on comfy furniture. Or for the movie nights on the huge well lit open air patio, also where you can hear great live music on Fridays & Saturdays.

A little slice of Asheville in Wilmington. Quirky and cozy, it gives off mountain cabin vibes. Great selection of local and craft beers and full bar. Great tacos next door!

There's no food, but you can bring in food from the vendors/restaurants around. The music is kind of loud. Looks like they have a well stocked bar. Atmosphere is pretty relaxed and attracted all kinds of clientele. The staff is always ready to accommodate for accessibility! Huge plus as there is an I/DD social club that meets here!

One of my favorite bars in Wilmington! Bluegrass on Sunday night is always a good time! Staff is friendly and they have a great selection. There is something for everyone - different types of music and people of all ages!

Feels like a hip Boulder,CO bar/brewery. Incredible, large back area with corn hole, dogs, music and tree canopy. Ages 21 to 81. Like nothing else that I have visited in Wilmington.

What a great spot! A taco window provides amazing street tacos and nachos just outside the main entrance. Plenty of seating is available out there, and you can even bring your drink from the bar. However, I can’t recommend the back patio enough. Strategic seating allows you to feel separated from others, while also giving you glimpses of the cornhole area to watch the heated competition. As the sun sets, there are tea lights strewn over the patio and they give you a lovely visual with the umbrellas. The drinks were great and reasonably priced and the bartenders did a fantastic job for how busy it was.

This place is always a go to for lounging and socializing. We recently hosted an event here. They host live music, dance and movie nights, and their little taco joint - Block Taco has a variety of fresh made tex mex and vegetarian options. The atmosphere is casual & fun with indoor & outdoor entertainment like cornhole and picnic tables for games or cards.
