We ordered a cream of crab soup ($16) to share, to see if we would like it, and it was pretty good.

The only important thing to know is that the food options they have are limited, and are various frozen/refrigerated options that you microwave yourself.

Hindsight being 20/20, I made a BIIIIG mistake. Fast forward to now. Stopped by on the way home from a road trip with my Spousal Unit. It was late, we were hungry, so gave it a shot. Still a few bikes in the lot, still a few bikers at the bar, but the place did not look anything like the rough and tumble joints I remembered. We ordered burgers and fries - and they were really, really, really good. Meat was a bit more cooked than requested but flavor was excellent and the fixings were fresh. Nice burger! And the fries: oh the fries! Crispy exterior, soft interior, well salted - I've now found fries I like more than Five Guys and McDs. So let me apologize for stereotyping them based on appearances.

There are also a few annexes, including a cozy upstairs space. The staff is professional and welcoming. Everyone I know loves the beers here, but if you're not a beer fan (like me), no worries. They have wine, canned sodas, and water in a fridge, plus those fun machines with a variety of fruit crushes and even basic full-bar cocktail offerings. To get a drink, you simply order at the long bar or the side window. For those who don't drink alcohol, they also have a fun dirty soda bar to the right of the brewery inside the attached shop, Lucy's Little Red Wagon, where you place separate drink orders. Lucy's is an attraction in and of itself! You can bring your drink inside and browse the cute clothes, stylish jewelry, local snacks, and unique gifts. They have a packed event schedule with live bands, line dancing, trivia nights, cornhole, and all sorts of fun activities. We've met friends here, brought our teenage kids, hosted out-of-town guests, met coworkers after work, and always see plenty of young children running around. They're dog-friendly too! When you're ready to eat, just walk over to The Food Spot through the entrance to Lucy's. You can order at the counter or through the app using the QR codes scattered throughout the brewery. The food is remarkably good and has exceeded our expectations every time. They rotate weekly specials, and have a standing menu. Our favorites have been the huge salads, delicious pizzas, and flavorful flatbreads. Whether you're stopping in for a drink, a meal, live music, or just a relaxing evening with family and friends, Flood Zone has become one of our favorite local spots!

Loved the fresh, moist hushpuppies and the crab dip, but the tots themselves (crabby tots) were a little burnt. I ordered the coconut shrimp and while the flavors were delicious, the shrimp was kind of mushy. If I were to go back, I'd get scallops or crab cakes and crabby fries. The service was slow and I'm not sure why it took so long to get our fountain drinks when we first arrived, but we were there on Friday night so it may just have been a busy time. Our waitress was lovely and took good care of us, impressively remembering the order of each person in our party of 5.

Comfortable , oh my yes. And, it was my birthday dinner, which I told them I was celebrating my birthday with dining there while enjoying my favorite drink, the Expresso Martini. The food ? Well, that crab cake was a huge ball of pure white flaky crabmeat encased in a yummy breaded ball. And the cottage fries so good, we ate everything on our plates.

Driving through the area late at night, we stumbled across Wag's with a craving for burgers. Though we weren't there to drink since we had a drive ahead of us, we loved watching the other patrons enjoying the bar scene. With daily specials and a great basement vibe, I can see why people love Wags. As for the food: the burger was just alright - but what can you expect when your meal is less than $10 per person? It honestly was perfect for the price point. The Wag Burger claimed to have a special sauce but we didn't taste it, which was fine because the burger was juicy, greasy, and hit the spot. The Philly cheese steak had a bit more flavor than the burger and was also a solid choice. Fries are fresh and made in-house, and I appreciated that you can salt them yourself and decide what toppings you might want to add. The menu is honestly huge for a dive bar, and all the food was solid. Shoutout to the staff here because after hearing how some drunk customers were treating them, they deserve all the tips in the world. Despite the staff being berated, dealing with intoxicated patrons threatening to run around nude, all while waiting tables with ease and kindness - you all deserve raises.
