A super fun atmosphere with great drinks and good vibes. Highly recommend the coconut lime crush drink. The nachos and tacos were impeccable. Everything was reasonably priced with quick service. We came here one night as part of a bachelorette trip and it was so fun! Definitely a must visit for causal dinner and drinks.

Would give negative stars if I could. Came to visit my sister from out of town and forgot my ID but have photos of my iD and proof I’m about to be 25 and was denied getting in…. Might as well give your money to other businesses that will let you in. This is ridiculous treating me like I’m underage give your money to business who want it not this one….willl never return and give them my business quite embarrassing I can’t purchase a drink somewhere being almost 25….

Open party-like atmosphere. Bar service tables and couches, you grab your own drinks and order your own food at the Bus and they bring it to your table; some tables with wait staff service. Food came quick. Yard games throughout (bean bag toss, bocce ball, a ring hook game). Dress for dinner = outdoor beach attire. Crab cake sandwich was good and tacos also tasty.

This is a fun place with alot going on.... nice selection of food and drinks, please note this is not anything fancy or upscale but it has a fun vibe and we got great service.

This place was super cute. We heard all the fun coming from it from the moment we checked into our hotel across the street on through the night. It sounded like so much fun so we decided to try it out the next day to which we were not disappointed. It was a nice atmosphere, very open and inviting. They had a few games to choose from like cornhole and a huge connect four. Plus it’s right across from the beach so that’s definitely a bonus.

Super fast service, awesome staff, great DJ and environment, and great menu. When we came it was partly open seating and party wait staffed, you do have to wait to jump into an open table as there was no official waitlist to get onto. This was a great experience overall and highly recommend! We personally loved the crab dip and their Orange Crush cocktail.

The brisket burger was supposed to be served with pickles and barbeque sauce. No bbq sauce at ALL, and the pickles were actually ripple-cut cucumbers that hadn't pickled for NEARLY long enough to be considered pickles. Brisket was not the best quality. Friend ordered Rude Boy Burrito, which was supposed to be chicken, but was instead some unidentifiable gristly meat that was most definitely NOT chicken, and didn't have the avocado it was supposed to have. Portions are tiny for the price paid. All in all, not worth dropping by at all. Your money is better spent elsewhere.

The vibe at The Shack was really nice. We went around 4:30p on a Saturday with kids (ages 3-5) and it was great. When we left right before 7p they were setting up larger speakers and it seemed like the more adult crowd was coming in, so just keep that in mind if you're bringing kids. Food was actually pretty good but alcoholic drinks were just regular. I would definitely return with or without the kids, it seems like a fun hangout spot during the summer.

Fun. That is what you get here. That and great beverages and food. Get there. Fast. Enjoy!

this seems like a fun place to be and interact.. the crush and run event after party was a little discombobulated.. and unorganized. The ticket I purchased for my husband.. one would assume he would also obtain a free orange crush and that was not the case.. $10.00 to get him on the property was BS. otherwise a good time was had.. everyone was in good spirits and the 90s music was great!
