On vacation, we went for lunch and everything was perfect! My friend had an absolute delicious pizza, with a thin crust well done, perfection. I took the butcher's wife salad with the smoked chicken and I loved it : I am know looking for a pulled chicken recipe, hoping to make it at home with my friends!!!

Pretty terrible experience overall. The best I can say is the food was okay, the beer was cold. Terrible, terrible service from the front door, to the waiter, the food runner, and me completely absent management. The experience was like going to the opening weekend of a brand new restaurant. No one seemed to know what they were doing. This place has been around long enough that it should have corrected the issues. Bring in some ppl who know what they are doing and retrain your staff. I do not recommend and will probably not be back.

We had heard about that “Amazing” service and it was certainly amazing. The restaurant was about half-full. Waited 20 minutes for drinks. The food arrived shortly after, but arrived without silverware or napkins. We asked the server for some silverware, and he brought enough for most of us, but not all. We also had to ask for serving utensils. The manager was kind enough to stop by just as we had a complete complement of food, bevs, utensils and napkins—we certainly did by that time and had a great time thereafter. The beer selection is exceptional, and the pizza was excellent.

Asked the server for a cider. He recommended a golden ale. Then acted surprised when we didn’t like it.

Black Drum Brewing is a great alternative to many of the beach restaurants. They serve real food - not just deep fried options. The brisket was delicious and the salad was very good. The full bar makes a good cocktail and the view overlooking the pools and beach is great.
