Service was fine, kind of slow but nice enough server. My main issue is I ordered the Cobb Crab Salad and there was less crab meat in the entire salad than you could fit into a single spoon. The ambiance is generally good but this is so over priced. Won't be back. read more

Quality of food is not great. It has 2 floors with inside and outside seating. Unfortunately the couple of appetizers I had were nothing great. The bang bang shrimp were mushy and needed to be cooked for longer. The crab and artichoke dip was flavorless and barely had any crab in it. read more

Ropewalk Bethany Beach - Bada bing shrimp $14 - Seafood Near Me - Bethany Beach, Delaware

We went to the Ropewalk for the half price entree night. I had never been here before. I loved that the drinking water came in a large personal pitcher. Never had to ask for a refill. The server was friendly and efficient. I am not a seafood lover, full disclosure, I do however love my people and they love seafood so I got chicken. I had the Jerk chicken and it was just ok. The meal was very salty and the portion was less than generous even for half price which was $12. I cannot imagine paying $24. The place is very touristy and if you just don't want to cook dinner then go to Ropewalk but this meal was far from exceptional. My friends' meals were just ok. read more

I've always enjoyed this place. They have a beautiful atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious food. Their scallops and wings are my favorite. But you cannot go wrong with anything you order. read more

Just your average restaurant - cold food and pricey The atmosphere is cool, the decor really sets the tone for the beach. The drinks are good but waters came in these big pitchers, seems like a waste. Great location right in town but overall just average. We did have a big group (10) which they had ample seating for and the place was mostly empty. Our server was really nice and attentive. Most of our food came out cold or room temp which for the price was really disappointing. As someone with a degree in food micro that really scared me with the fish and scallops served not hot. Probably won't go back for food but maybe for drinks and a snack? read more

Such a fun place--4 adults and two small children were seated immediately and had delicious food in short prefer: two dozen oysters on the half shell, delicious entree choices and wonderful beer selections. The children were delighted with their take-home fishbowl for the lunch drink and take-home dinner plates (frisbees). Nice outdoor dining in front and upstairs. This will be a spot we return to when we're in Bethany! read more

Fun and relaxing dinner for two at Ropewalk Bethany Beach! Welcomed by smiling hostess, up the stairs to be seated on 2nd floor deck with a view of the ocean and town with a nice breeze. My orange crush drinks were perfection, along with cold hazy IPAs. Our attentive server recommended the crab cake egg rolls as an app, they were delicious and filling. Lobster steamer and crab cake dinner were both delicious. Could tell bussers were conscientious and aware of tables needs. Bathrooms upstairs was clean, elevator inside for those that need it. Recommend Ropewalk for lunch or dinner, families, groups, etc! read more

A real bad food experience. Overpriced , we ordered the fried green tomatoes as our app with jumbo crab meat and it came out looking like crab slivers , little to no meat . Burger was mediocre. Frozen meat advertised as fresh angus meat . Hawaiian tacos came out horrible with chunky beef when it was supposed to be shredded . 2/10 experience. The only thing good was the waitress experience. This used to be an amazing spot ! Went real down hill . Will not be returning. read more

Contrary to other reviews I really enjoyed dining here. We were seated at the open upper deck, beautiful views. Waitress was very nice, had an enjoyable and fun attitude! It was busy and the food took a little while but we didn't mind, it's vacation there's no rush and it would be like that everywhere. My entire party of 4 enjoyed our meals and appetizers! Great place, awesome food! The Rockfish Tacos were great!!! read more

It's good! Safe. Not anything crazy special but good for families, kids, groups of adults, etc. The covered rooftop is kind of hard to eat in because the wind is so strong up there even if it's not a windy day but it was nice to have a view of the ocean while we ate. There is an elevator to get upstairs if needed. Not pictured were the fried green tomatoes which we had two years ago when we came for the first time and they're probably the best thing on the menu in my opinion (but also I'm not a huge seafood person). Another time we came this trip someone got rockfish tacos (also not pictured) which they thought was good and the seafood Cobb (not pictured) which the person LOVED and thought they were pretty generous with the helping of seafood. We have been here a couple of times but it does seem like they have a lot of political paraphernalia which is a little strange for a family a restaurant, but it's not anything current so it didn't bother us but still kind of strange. It's great for a sit-down lunch! Will probably go every year if they stay in Bethany read more

My visit here ended with the manager giving us 50% off our bill and the waiter saying, "it's not always this bad, please come back." The food was cold, overcooked, and flavorless. They messed up our drinks, three times. They messed up our food order, twice. I orders plain noodles for my son, 2. They brought them out with sauce all over them. I ordered wings, which were bare of meat and flavor. They were hard and crunchy. On the side was dirty celery. My brother got a burger charred. He ordered it medium rare. I had to ask the waiter three times where our drinks were and twice where our food was. The place looks cool with fish hanging everywhere. But so does every place at the beach. "Please come back." Ha. Ha ha ha. Ha! What a laughing stock of a restaurant. It is June, the beginning of the season. If this doesn't get fixed, this place will go out of business. Maybe for the better. read more

Went by on a sleepy Saturday recently and chose to sit at the bar. Alex introduced himself and served us our beers of choice and complimentary waters. Ordered their Victory style hickory smoked chicken wings and a bowl of Crab Bisque soup. The wings are the bomb and the soup was delish! Next we got their crab tacos. Wow! Overall a very nice experience, good beers & great food! What's not to like? read more

We had a late dinner on the upstairs deck with a beautiful view of the shops on Garfield. The server was friendly and helpful. The food is OK but not great. We had thick gooey crab bisque and shared a hummus starter. Neither had much flavor and the hummus was thin and granular but served with nice flatbread crackers and fresh carrots and celery. The drinks were flavorful but with a minimum of alcohol. read more

Food has always been good. Steamed shrimp was perfectly cooked, fried green tomatoes were excellent. Drinks are yummy. Pineapple crush was delish n our server Avery was the best. He talked us into a 2nd drink n we were so happy. His attitude is so friendly n he was perfect. He checked on us plenty n made us want to adopt him. Love Ronald Reagan so had my picture taken with his bronze. read more

Stopped in here for lunch. Friends had recommended the Ocean City location. There was some outdoor seating, but the indoor area was open to the outside at the front so we felt safe. Staff were wearing masks correctly. We started with a soft drink and an ice tea, which arrived in small pitchers. I joked with the server about not needing to inquire about free refills given how sizable the drinks were and he assured me refills were free. (We didn't need them and in fact got to-go cups with the remainder of our drinks when we left. We ordered the fried pickle chips as an appetizer. They came in a generous sized bowl. The batter was crispy and not too greasy. Easily among the better fried pickles I've had. My wife got their burger and upgraded to the seasoned waffle fries. I tried a few and they were tasty. She really enjoyed the burger. I got the pulled pork tacos. They were delicious. The pork was tender and not heavily sauced. Underneath the pork was some cole slaw, just enough for a little crunch and not watery at all. There were no dribbles of slaw juice running down as I ate my tacos! Pineapple salsa topped each taco. I would absolutely order these again. read more

I'm surprised this place doesn't have a higher rating. My husband and I loved it. I got the wedge salad with salmon, and I loved it. He had a burger and fries, and he said it was incredible. Great service, great food, and open in the off season! read more

Skip this place! Sadly I am sitting in the restaurant so disappointed with the food. Its off season, but my first time in Bethany Beach. I walked by and the food smelled good. I really should have read the reviews. Crab soup bland and weired not crap meat. Bada Bing shrimp...bada yuk! It was greasy and texture of the shrimp was weired. It like the shrimp was frozen and defrosted and it got mush!!! Whipsicle was weak and flavorless. So disappointed the aroma that pulled me in was better then the food!!!! Oh the server was ok, nice but ok. As I was driving home I felt sick....no bueno. read more

I used to love coming here , but tonight the food was very bland and they charged $7.50 for a domestic draft 12oz beer. This place was one of my favorites but not anymore read more

My review matches up mostly with what other people have said about this place. We were scrambling to find somewhere to eat on a Saturday night, and everything was booked. We finally stumbled upon this place and got right in. I ordered the seafood bucket. It was pretty good, not the best I've ever had and it was pricey for the little amount of food you got. I also got crab soup which was good as well. Overall, this place was good but there are definitely more worth while places to try while in Bethany Beach! read more

Ropewalk Bethany Beach - Seafood bucket - Seafood Near Me - Bethany Beach, Delaware

This is one of our favorite spots to visit. - It's Family friendly - Staff is easy to work with - lots to pick from on the menu - Several choices of crushes - Turn around is quick - Access to the beach Just everything is great. By no means, is the food a 10, but it's a great restaurant with the family right by the beach so you can just walk. We usually leave the beach, throw our junk in the car and have lunch here, or a good spot while you're waiting on check in. I'm veg and the lady told me all about the veg pasta. She told me how she's not veg but it's great. I got it, it was different but good. I am noticing how at the beach, there's seafood or meat. They are not targeted at all for veg or people with allegies. So it's nice when a business actually realizes that in this day and age. They were giving out wicky sticks to the kids. My daughter loved it so on the way out i asked for another and she handed me 4 packets. WONDERFUL. read more

prices are horrible, and I mean horrible. $30 for like some pasta that isn't very much special. Not that much food for how much you are paying. Didnt have food items. Seated us in the corner when the whole restaurant was open.... the appetizer chips were stale and did not have any freshness in it. the experience was honestly a 2/5 but I'll give them that their fries are good but chicken sandwiches were not equal one piece small and other order had big chicken that had some hardness to it. additionally the steamed shrimp was under seasoned. Was just not good for the prices. There wasn't any chicken burchett pasta!! their cider was not good at all. read more

Starting with the positives. Crab soup broth was good Pasta was good Crab egg rolls were good Negatives: Barely any crab in the soup Chicken was tough FLIES EVERYWHERE Im mostly mad about the flies, having to swat them away constantly Also why is Ronald Reagan everywhere? read more

It's a touristy family style restaurant set-up to move people in and out so set expectations. We had a large party and they could seat us in under 15min, which was great. However the food - not one person at the table was satisfied with their meal (besides the kids). It's costal style fast food, burgers were thin with one strip of lettuce, and tomato. The corn was soggy with no flavor, lobster was soggy rubber. The crab dip and crab dip burger had no crabmeat. The shrimp were low quality and small. Jerk Chicken got mixed reviews from OK to good (not great). We did like the fred green tomatoes and the kids liked their meal. It took around 30min for our food to arrive after we ordered and the waitress didn't come back to check on us until the end, but we also didn't really need anything besides Ketchup (our bottle was empty), but the neighbor helped us out. Just a middle of the road large tourist restaurant. read more

Despite the low Yelp ratings, our party of seven decided to give this restaurant a try because of it's proximity to our location. The outdoor play area makes it feel kid friendly, but the overall atmosphere was more of a bar/pub. The upstairs interior dining room felt overwhelmed by the enormous TVs, all of which were tuned to some type of sporting event. If you enjoy watching athletes sweat while you drink a draft, then you'll like it here. Not being a sports fan myself, I could have done without the TVs which only added to the noise pollution. However, any negatives were overshadowed by the positives. The restrooms were clean and stocked with soap, TP, etc. Our server was efficient and friendly. He anticipated our needs and checked back often. The food was delicious. In general, I don't like waffle fries and I don't like seasoned fries. However, Ropewalk's seasoned waffle fries were fabulous! A little crunch on the outside with a soft potato-y center. I had to force myself to stop eating them, and they give you a large portion. The MD crab soup had plenty of crabmeat in it, and one of my dining partners said the crabcake sandwich was very yummy. The burger was declared to be "very good." The kids' pasta serving could have been a little larger considering it was just noodles and marinara. A few more noodles would have made it seem worth the money. I didn't love the crab dip (too thick, not enough crab, lukewarm) nor the crab bisque (too thick, not enough crab, too many veggies), but the shrimp salad sandwich was just what I'd been craving. Overall, we totally enjoyed our Ropewalk experience and will definitely return. read more

I called to ask a question about the steam pots, how many people one pot feeds so I could know how many to order, and the receptionist stated she didn't know. When I asked to if she could inquire with someone, she said "you want me to ask someone?" And hung up on me!!! Sorry Ropewalk with service like this over the phone, can only imagine service inside. read more

We are here off-season, late September, good food and good service, had a nice dinner.

We were planning on going to Rehobeth but with everybody out and about since They didn't get to do anything last year, it was way too congested; we decided to drive down to Bethany on our quest to get fishers popcorn we also needed lunch. The ropewalk l, I had heard of and seemed inviting so we tried it out knowing that the Ocean City location has very good reviews. Not sure if they are actually a chain of sort but never-the-less we still tried it. Their menu was pretty good we did order the crab eggrolls which were very good and we split a pulled pork and something else. The drinks come in little pitchers Which is actually pretty nice because my water didn't go dry. Our food came fast and our waitress was on top of our needs read more

I would consider myself knowledgeable of dining establishments in Bethany so I went in very optimistic hoping I could add a new dining spot to the rotation. Started off with the crab artichoke and tuna apps for a party of 7. Good food I'd recommend the dip over the tuna. For my entree I got the seafood salad and overall it was strong. My nephew loved the kids pasta. The wife got the Caesar salad topped w a crab cake. This is in no way fine dining but definitely a good spot . Don't know when I'll be back but I will be back! read more

Had a wonderful meal, great waiter zack, will go again. He has a great way with people, very patient and efficient

I give the food AND service a 10/10! Our waiter was so sweet and when I mentioned I wanted a oyster shooter with no vodka just because I've never had one before and just wanted 1 just in case I didn't like it, he took it upon himself to give me 1 singular oyster and red sauce with lemon just for me and I really appreciated it and it reflected on the tip. He did not have to do that and a lot of other places would not just give someone 1 oyster just to try so that's why I would recommend this restaurant because they do care about the customers experience! We had a crab boil to share and it was DELICIOUS!!! Cheese cake was delicious and good for sweet tooth, raspberry sauce was super sweet. We ordered one meal and shared it and was stuffed! I have a sensitive stomach and had no problem here! Prices were reasonable, and to be honest we would've payed more for how good the service and food was. Safe to say we will be coming back to Rope Walk at Bethany beach read more

Our experience at the Ropewalk Bethany was TERRIBLE! First to say, I never write reviews. We usually eat at the Ropewalk in Ocean City and it is usually above average. The Bethany Beach location is somewhere I would NOT recommend. To start, our plates were wet and menus were dirty! Our waiter, got multiple orders wrong and disappeared from the table for 20 minutes at a time. We then got our appetizers, we asked ourselves, "Why does the crab dip look like throw up?" and "Why are the chips so stale?". We also got a watery crab soup with rubbery crab meat. We then, sat for another 15 minutes waiting for our food, STILL no server. There is nowhere to put our food because our dirty dishes are still there! We then asked the floor manager if she could take the dirty dishes away so we didn't have to hold our food in our hands and she ROLLED HER EYES!!! The rockfish tacos looked like they had been cooked in a microwave, the chicken tenders were on a bed of soggy limp lettuce, the seafood Mac and cheese was a joke. 28 dollars for "seafood", 4 shrimp and some tiny bits of crab meat. A joke. To top it off, our waiter brought us coke that was clearly out of syrup and they said "oh yeah, I noticed it was a weird color but" To say we will not be coming back is obvious. read more

I wouldn't even give it one star but I am forced to so I can write this review. To be fair the service was great and the bartender very nice. But.....do not order the crab and shrimp Mac and cheese or the blackened chicken Alfredo. The description for Mac and cheese says smothered in creamy cheddar cheese sauce and the chicken Alfredo says it's in a creamy Alfredo sauce. There is nothing creamy or smothered about either of them. There was literally no cheese sauce on either. The portion size was great but we only ate some of it and threw the rest out. When we told the bartender about how dry both dishes were we were told that it is the way it's supposed to be and that was it. I wouldn't waste my money here again and neither should you! At a time when money is tight for most and you are out for a treat and to be so disappointed is just sad and then to have to pay for it is even worse. read more

Stopped by on a Saturday afterwards for a quick meal and was seated right away. They gave us pitchers of water and my spouse had a pineapple crush which was good. We then had the pulled pork and burger for our meals. Both were just average and nothing special that made them stand out. The burger was very basic, only coming with lettuce and tomato. A slice of cheese was $2 which I added. The entrees came with a side of chips, but they just seemed to be cape cod chips, not thing fresh or homemade. For the price you can do much better but the food was as expected for the boardwalk. For a quick bite and no frills, this will get the job done. read more

Been going to all locations for years . Service always good and decor is cool . Bada Bing shrimp , burgers, tuna tacos, and salads good .

The Ropewalk is easy to find. There is table seating close to the sidewalk. The front tables are set in sand and there were families with small children and those kids were digging at the parents' feet. Very cute. We found parking in a nearby Citizens bank lot (kiosk parking). There is metered street parking. Get the ParkMobile App and save yourself time and stress . Kiosks can be difficult to work with. The App is effortless. Bethany Beach was quite crowded with tourists in this area. We went there on a Sunday night. The place was crowded but we were seated right away. (6PM) no reservations. There is dining on the 1st and 2nd floors. The restaurant was open to the sea breezes and not air conditioned. There is an elevator for HDA to the 2nd floor. The menu fare was what you would expect at a family beach restaurant. I had Ahi Tuna, my friends had a bucket of shrimp, a bucket of snow crab legs, stuffed flounder. Everybody enjoyed their food read more

I got the portobello mushroom tacos. They are good as a concept but they need a sauce. Kinda bland. Their fries are nice waffle fries. Bartenders are good looking white bros. Place has an amazing mural of fishermen on the sea and there's a random statue of an old man that scared me. My Moscow mule was really good. read more
