Two notable things: no fried foods, including fries, and all their beers on tap are from a local Morehead City brewery called Tight Lines Brewery. They have 8 taps. So there are IPA's, lagers and even a sour if that's your jam. Back to food, the one criticism I have is their potato salad. That doesn't live up to the rest of the place. Try the mahi, Rueben tuna, or Shrimp Mac and cheese. You won't be disappointed.

It has a very nice pizza parlor, atmosphere and ambience and you would have an enjoyable time hanging out with friends, eating quality food.

I ordered a Pizza Burger and was told they don't make Pizza Burger. The Pizza Burger is on their menu.

I love that's what happened here, and the building is now infinitely better for it. This was a good stop for us as we passed a little time before needing to leave for the next ferry to Minnesott beach. There's a good selection of house brews, and even though I got to try one of them, I was pleased with it. Right now, I cannot recall the name of it, which in unfortunate. Now, the great part about this being a converted wings is also offset by the fact... it's a converted wings. It was pretty warm in there and im sure that has a lot to do with the large frontal glass and the greenhouse effect. I'd consider a big tint job if I were them. There was an area to the right where you could kick back a little as opposed to just posting up on some stools, and there was also a small area around back if you wanted to be outside. The back area is very basic, but really, i cant imagine you come here to sit outside. If you want to do that, get some beers to go and go sit on the beach! Overall, I need to come back and try a few more things, but I would definitely return. Great place in Atlantic beach to have a drink!

We were down there on overcast chilly Sunday about 11 AM and there wasn't much going on, when we entered and went upstairs, it was quiet and that's what I was thinking the place was going to be dead, but as soon as we opened the door upstairs, you could tell it was a fairly busy place that has some good music and a fun ambience that seemed to attract a variety of people types and ages. It was a little different than I expected since it turned out to be more of a pizza place than a bar, but I had a great time and the food we had was very well prepared, flavorful, filling, and I was blown away by all the different types of breakfast pizza options they had as well as some sandwiches and some quality sides. The staff was very pleasant and super efficient and on a warm day in the summer they would have all of their windows open so you could get a natural breeze and airflow, and I'm sure it would be quite the fun time. Once we were finished, we went downstairs to the lower section and while there was nobody in there and it was dead, you could tell this was the party place during the summer or evenings and weekends, so I will give it another shot when I'm in town next time.

We got (3) large (18") pizzas, one cheese, one meat lovers and one peperoni, and then (2) orders of their buffalo wings. The food was ready when we got there, and overall, was pretty good. The crust was a bit doughy, and and real flavorful on it's own, but as far as toppings, they loaded it up, and with the sauce, toppings and cheese, it was decent pizza for the price. The wings were also decent, a fair split of drums and flats, and a good flavor to the buffalo sauce. There was more than enough food for 7 adults, and even some left over to snack on for the remaining days. Pricing was fair, staff friendly on the phone and when we picked up. I'd go back.

Foodies unite! Black sheep Beaufort is a good hang. When you come to these beautiful seaside villages the inclination is to find seafood and that can get you in a tourist trap. Don't let pizza scare you! The food is great and obviously cared for. The drink menu seems meticulously curated. The bar faces the water (we even saw the wild horses on shackleford) and the bartenders are knowledgeable and fun! 10/10 times Im coming to black sheep when I visit Beaufort. Bartender William was awesome. read more
