    This is a great outside venue to meet with friends and see some local talent. The bar staff was attentive and had Cold beer

    Went in for a beer and was totally ignored by the owner. Left after 5 minutes waiting to be served.

    Highly Recommend Sharks & Shooters! As new residents of…read moreRocky Mount, we were looking for a place where we could relax, meet people, and feel welcome. At first glance, you would never guess Sharks & Shooters is a bar--it looks more like a local legion or community gathering spot. But don't let appearances fool you! After trying a few other bars in the area, Sharks & Shooters quickly became our go-to spot. The biggest reason is the amazing atmosphere. From the moment you walk through the door, you're greeted with a warm welcome from Jess, Jen, Ang, and of course Quinn, depending on who's working. They are all fantastic, attentive, and genuinely make you feel like you're at home rather than just another customer. What really sets this place apart is not only the staff but also the people who come in. As newcomers to Rocky Mount, we weren't sure what to expect, but the regulars and locals have been incredibly friendly and welcoming. It's rare to find a place where both the staff and customers make you feel like part of the community from day one. One experience that truly shows how much they care was when we were having trouble getting an Uber home because the driver couldn't find where we lived (yes, lol!). Instead of just wishing us luck, the Sharks & Shooters team went above and beyond to make sure we got home safely. They helped us find a driver, Nick, who was absolutely fantastic. That level of kindness and customer care is hard to find these days and says a lot about the people who work there. If you're looking for a laid-back atmosphere, great service, friendly faces, and a place where everyone feels like family, Sharks & Shooters is the place to be. We're so glad we found it and look forward to many more visits. Thank you to Jess, Jen, Ang, Quinn, Nick, and everyone at Sharks & Shooters for making Rocky Mount feel a little more like home.

    Stopped in while traveling. While parking our first impression was a bit uncomfortable. But once we…read morereached the front door, we were greeted by the locals and were welcomed. Inside was very clean and updated. Pool tables were very nice. We meet a lot of nice people here. Wish there was a place like this back home. Hopefully if we are in the area again, we can enjoy this establishment once again.
