    Fish N Chips
    J R.

    We absolutely love this place! It's our go-to spot whenever family comes to visit, and we just found out it's actually family-run--that makes it even better. The food is always amazing. I had the She Crab sandwich (seriously delicious) and couldn't get enough of their broccoli salad. My husband got the fish and chips, and it was spot-on too. Definitely a must-visit if you're around!

    The Beach Pub is a nice little lunch spot and the service was good. Guy Fieri has had this on his show Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives on the food network. They serve you nice size portions, but I will say I wasn't crazy for the sandwich I had or the macaroni salad, maybe I ordered the wrong thing because I will tell this place was packed, so they obviously are good. It was neat to visit and I would give it a second chance for sure!!

    Clams topped with bacon and garlic. And drawn butter.

    This is a homey dive in every sense of the word. You have a bar in the back with a good supply of locals enjoying each other's stories and tv's. Up front is the dining room, very dated, but that was ok, it all fit together. I ordered something I had not had before...clams with garlic and bacon. It was really good and gone too fast. The drawn butter was petfect with this dish. My only comment was to wish the bacon was crisper. The service was excellent, just the right amount.

    The last time I gave The Beach Pub a review it was not a good one. As we walked out because we never got helped. We decided after some time to give them another try. The difference was night and day. 180 degree turnaround. Greeted as soon as we walked in the door. We sat down menus were right there. In just minutes a waitress was there to get our drink order and asked if we questions and explained the specials for the afternoon. This was a 100% better experience.

    After a full day, my wife and I decided on visiting the beach pub for our dinner. With only a few days to spend in the area I am so happy we chose this place over others. We sat at the bar while having college games on the TVs. It brought back so many wonderful memories. Our bartender made a wonderful Manhattan for me and a cocktail for my wife. For our main courses, my wife decided on the lasagna special while I ordered their shrimp and crab dinner. Our meals came out relatively quickly. My shrimp and crab was absolutely delicious with wonderful hush puppies! My wife enjoyed a lasagna as well it was huge and delicious. If you're in the area, you will not be disappointed, trying the beach pub!

    Coast Guard memorabilia inside the restaurant

    My family and I stopped by the Beach Pub while we were visiting VAB because my grandfather helped open the restaurant years ago before he passed. Since the last time we had visited (~20 years ago), quite a bit has changed and we were a little disappointed. There is quite a bit of coast guard/surf and rescue/military memorabilia inside the restaurant that pays tribute to my family's heritage which is a nice touch. However, we sat outside in a large booth that rocked back and forth, and the environment was pretty loud due to road/air noise. My family ordered the Barco Clams to share (clams, garlic, bacon, but they were just meh), and my dad and I split the 1 lb of shrimp which was the daily special - there is no way I would've been able to eat all of the shrimp by myself (huge portion!). We added a side of potato salad to our meal which was a little smaller than what I was expecting, so the side was hard to share. Most of the food tasted great. Our waitress was lovely and really tried her best to be attentive during the evening since she told us the restaurant was pretty busy inside. We were in no rush to leave, but if you needed to get in and out quickly, you may have had some trouble with the service.

    This is a Old School restaurant/divebar. It's a welcoming place and off of the touristy strip. And still mostly local.

So many quality ingredients for the price. I also got their sweet biscuit and you can taste that everything is homemade. We also got their biscuit smothered in gravy. The biscuit was also homemade. Everything was amazing here and I can't recommend this place enough. Also, the bar looks amazing with lots of drink specials. They do add an 18% gratuity in all checks. This would normally be a problem for me as service is hot and miss at some places. But, the device was amazing and every one of the servers help out and take care of the patrons.

We were a party of 6 with estimated wait time 45min. You receive a link when you check in with your location on the wait list and party sizes. A party of 7 was sat before us because they didn't think we would want to sit at a high top with my infant. They did not ask our preference. Then they split tables that had been pushed together for a previous party of 6 and began sitting parties of 2 that had been waiting ~20min while we were over 80min of waiting per the link sent to us. Then, an incomplete party of 6 was sat at one of the large booths. We expressed concern to the hostess and were told we were "next on the list". Another hosted arrived and explained that we were not sat in the order we arrived because of the infant and the high top. We expressed we would like to sit at the high top and then we were provided a high chair that fit at the high top table.. First come first serve was not what was practiced here today, and unfortunately I was with an infant so we felt it a little harder than we would have otherwise. Overall it was very disappointing. We typically love the food and the service. We just hope that this doesn't become a trend - would hate to see this place go downhill..

It's easy to get overwhelmed at Huntley's!! There's the special sign by the door, the wall of pancake options, the other wall with specials, the orange photocopied sheet with specials and the main menu. Oh so many options that sounded so good but I was on a pancake mission. Service was immediate and my coffee and water were quickly in front of me. My awesome charm-focused waitress nudged up to me with a mile long smile plus recommendations if her favorites almost leading me to change but no I was destined to have pancakes!! Coconut and banana pancakes were my choice ... three of them The kitchen obviously knows how to do pancakes because these had all the traits of pancakes you lust for ... well not sure I was lusting for the pancakes but they were really good.

Not only was the lady who served us beyond nice and helpful, but she also helped us make up our minds on what to order and was constantly checking up on us, but never in an annoying way. As for the food, it was absolutely amazing. The portion sizes are more than good enough, and the pancakes were silky smooth and packed with huge flavors. With so many options to choose from, they definitely have a flavor for everybody. The eggs Benedict were some of the best I've ever had. The hollandaise sauce was rich, creamy, and had that perfect buttery flavor without being too heavy. The muffin the eggs came on top of was fluffy and made for the perfect pairing. The breakfast platter was also very good and came with a great selection of meats and eggs. Everything was cooked well, and there was more than enough food to leave you satisfied. If you're around the area and want some amazing breakfast, I'd say look no further. The food, portions, and service were all fantastic, and I'd definitely come back again.

It is fully shaded which was nice considering we had some young kids with us. Service staff was very attentive and knowledgeable. I'd encourage them to be more targeted when describing some recommendations on the menu, she simply listed about the entire menu she asked "what are some of your favorites". Drinks were delivered very fast by the bartender. 2nd rounds were offered prior to the drinks being empty which shows good serving habits. The serving portions were very plentiful and played very well on the brunch theme! Burger was cooked medium well but still very juicy with a delicious mayo based sauce. The chicken and biscuit was juicy and the biscuit was flaky and delicious. It would have served the dish well TJ have a little more syrup. I also loved the unique hash tots. I was simply visiting from out of state so I won't return, but I'd encourage you to! They are also included on Resy so be sure to book there or use a Resy credit if you have it!

The restaurant has a great oceanfront location and the food was good, but our experience was significantly impacted by how staff handled my service dog. We initially sat outside, but constant biting flies made it difficult to enjoy our meal, so we moved inside. Shortly afterward, an assistant manager approached us and attempted to remove us because of my service dog. My dog was clearly identifiable as a service animal, quietly lying at my feet, fully under control, and not bothering anyone. As a Disabled Veteran, I should not have had to explain ADA service animal laws in order to eat breakfast. The burden should not fall on guests to educate restaurant management about federal disability protections. What should have been a happy and memorable morning before my wedding became stressful and upsetting. The issue was eventually resolved, and we were allowed to remain, but only after I had to advocate for my legal rights. Because of that experience, we chose not to return to dine inside the restaurant for the remainder of our stay. The food and location were good, but the lack of service animal awareness by management seriously detracted from the experience. I strongly recommend additional ADA and service animal training for all staff so future guests do not experience the same treatment.
