    We had so much fun. The appetizers were exactly what we needed. The server was adorable. The inside is clean and has a pool table. We wrote with chalk on the side walk!

    This was a 6" "margarita" pizza.

    If you're going to have a beer, it's fine. I would not suggest eating here. The restaurant needs a deep cleaning and better bar food. Everything we got looked as if it had been ordered frozen and microwaved. No one waited on us, we had to order everything at the bar. The restrooms smelled like a bad sewer pipe.

    Great spot to catch the game and grab a drink! We came here to sit at the bar and it was completely blocked off due to COVID, so we grabbed a spot next to the big screen to catch the PGA championship. There were a couple regulars that we sat next to and they were extremely friendly. The staff was also really cool and had some good jokes.

    Came in for a drink after a walking tour and before dinner. It's a casual sports bar with a good vibe. There are lots of daily drink specials, classic and rotating taps, and house wines. The food menu has some unusual items for this Northern. Loaded Totchos, Buffiyaki sauce, pickled jalapeños, pickle brine chicken sandwich, all sound delicious! Barmaid, Chelsea, knows how to suggest and make a great drink. This historic building was the Roudabush's Seed Store.

    This is a pretty large bar that serves bar food and has an outside and inside area. I did not try any food but I did have a drink and enjoy sitting outside where they had a DJ, outside bar, and several a TV's on the wall. Bar staff was friendly. In the women's restroom, the bottom of the stall doors were so high up you could practically see everything. I thought that was weird.

    Huge..  I mean HUGE fresh chunks of lobster meat.  The sriracha sauce I believe..  flawless

    I love the Husk for so many reason. The best bartenders, best chefs, wide selection. But now.. I've discovered their lobster rolls. See the pics.. you'll just have to try for yourself. I can't put into words the heaven in each bite...

    Middle of the afternoon on a Monday - it was me and several college girls at the bar. I had a Foothills Hoppyum IPA which was good enough and cheap at $4.00. Second visit I had a Blue Point White IPA also good. Decor is a bit rustic. Several beers on tap with a list of both draft and tap beers on a chalkboard. I will post a pix. Lots of smaller flat-screens near the booths, larger flat-screens at each end of the bar. Very busy and loud on the weekends; mostly a younger crowd.

    Bourbon and pbr special

    This place is growing on me. It's quickly becoming my let's-go-have-a-drink-go-to. The bar is huge and there's a nice little courtyard in the back. Really cute in the evening. In fact I almost hosted an event here, sadly it did not work out. The booths are quite large. Big enough for a large party. There are two half circle booths also. One near the bar and another towards the back, if you want more privacy. They have bar food available. I heard their grilled cheese is good but I haven't tried it. I plan to get the ultimate Bloody Mary next time. It's a Bloody Mary (which btw is the best in Wilmington. Take my word for it) served with a grilled cheese, tater tots and a chicken wing. I might be off on the fixins a bit but my interest is certainly peaked. Nice beer selection too. PS- they love dogs!

    Pool table is all the way in the back so it's got a touch of privacy.
    Taylor E.

    Pretty cool bar with a pool table and darts. Drinks aren't too bad, and they definitely didn't skimp on the liquor. It can get crowded (which isn't a bad thing, just makes getting drinks or playing pool a challenge). I got the wings there once and they were good for a bar that does primarily drinks.

    $3 well on Wednesdays

They have a variety of seating options, including some group-friend booths. On my last visit, I sat at the bar and ordered a flight of beer. Tony the bartender was very patient with my request for a flight of local beer with no IPAs or hoppy beers. He picked out: 2: Wrightsville Beach Orange Crush, 3. Waterline Kolsh, 4. Teaches Peaches, 1. Watermelon Dragon Fruit Burst. I was familiar with the first three and loved them. I jokingly refer to Wrightsville Beach Orange Crush as creamsicle beer. It isn't too sweet, but the Orange flavor is quite strong. The Waterline Kolsh is light and very easy to drink. The Teaches Peaches is one of my favorites due to its light fruity flavor. The Watermelon Dragon Fruit Burst was a wildcard in Tony's lineup. This sour was a refreshing way to mix up my beer tasting. My friend also got a flight and didn't like one of the beers he chose. Tony swapped it out for a different beer as soon as I told him and the new one was well-received. My favorite part of this visit was that Tony decided to bring me a sample of the 8. Firestone Walker Mind Haze, because it was a non-hoppy IPA and he thought I might like it. It wasn't my fave, but I really appreciated the opportunity to try something new. I snacked on free popcorn all during my visit. The popcorn machine is in the back. Also in the back are single-stall restrooms. Tavern Law has an A+ in my book because they have great local beer on tap and they are gay friendly.

We did have one issue where the vegetarian in our group got served a chicken bowl by accident. However they quickly remedied it and got him what he ordered ASAP. Unfortunately we were mostly done by the time his food came. They did comp the food that was late which was nice.
