Unbelievable Awesome Vibes! Off the beaten track and so worth the time to go a few extra miles to this excellent establishment! The food was excellent! The beans are fantastic! Really good! The Brisket and Tri Tip were really good! Great selection on beer! I had the Hefeweizen and hubby had the Red Ale. New favorite place in Newport!! read more

Great location and vibe at this taphouse and BBQ joint. I really enjoyed the ribs and the chicken wings we ordered. Good selection of beers and some hard liquor available. Loved the outdoor, dog friendly space! read more

Wow - that should be all this review says because it was so good...my wife and I were visiting Newport for a birthday getaway and this place came recommended. Portion size was insane and the meat was smoky amazing. I had the pulled pork Mac N cheese with a Marionberry Kolsch and my wife got the half order of nachos. Utah Shane was an amazing server who somehow seemed to serve the whole place really well. read more

Service was fine nice place beers ok, but food was terrible. We had 4 different meals and all were bad. Meat was gristly, and greasy. Potatoes were swimming in grease. I had to put food on napkins to drain the grease. Worst barbecue we have ever had. Would never go back. read more

Solid BBQ. Portions avg. Service fine. Excellent choice of beers/ales. Worth a trip.

Service was amazing! Our server was absolutely killing it -- she was the only one working during spring break and handled everything like a pro. The Hawaiian plate was delicious, and the two-meat platter was very good too. Great portion sizes all around. We'll definitely be back! read more

This place is nice. It's tucked away in a neighborhood so if you didn't know it was there you'd never see it! It smelled delicious! The service was friendly and fast. The food was good. I took a star away because my food came out slightly cold and I felt like the Mac and cheese could have used some more cheese. read more

i definitely recommend this place for anybody visiting newport, our waiter was very nice and there was live music playing while we ate our meal. the mac salad was delicious and creamy. i did not try the baked beans but it seemed like it tasted good according to my dad lol.

Food took a long time to come out and I finished my meal before my wife's food arrived. Burger was cooked well done and was ok. Bbq was ok. read more

The food is AMAZING!!!! I wanted to give 5 stars but I took one off for service. They weren't that busy yet for a Friday. (We got there at 4:30). The waitress was super nice but she didn't come back to check on us until we were almost all done. Then we ordered one second drink and that took longer than we thought considering there wasn't anything going on behind the counter at the time. Over all I will definitely return. The pulled pork was SO GOOD!!!! my husband had the smoked chicken as well which I tried and thought it was also quite delicious. The baked beans were unique and delicious. Their BBQ sauce was also very tasty! If you want amazing home smoked, home made food, this is your place!! read more

If the weather cooperated, we could have sat outside with our girls (four legged). The service attentive. Ambiance great and they accommodated us by putting on the Seattle Seahawks game! The food was absolutely delicious. I questioned my husband getting the Hawaiian plate but found myself eating almost all of his mac salad. Brisket was delicious, husband loved it because not pure fat like some places. The pulled pork was tasty but what surprised me was baked beans. I'm not fan but they were damn good. If wasn't so full, would have gotten smores brownie. Next trip, gotta try the wings. read more

The Wilds Taphouse & BBQ - 2 meats and 2 sides. Brisket and pulled pork with fries and baked beans. - Barbeque Near Me - Newport, Oregon

Great BBQ. The staff is always friendly and the locals are awesome! I would highly recommend this place!

Excellent menu, excellent service AND it's not touristy. Don't tell the tourists about this place or they'll ruin it. Awesome food across the board; we got the Hawaiian plate w/ brisket, pulled pork tacos, mac & cheese and 2 things came with fries - HOMEMADE fries. It's up in the neighborhood next to the community college, so you won't "happen upon it", so that's even better. Plenty of options for food & drinks and it's really nice, with outdoor seating, too. read more

Yum! Just played frisbee golf across the way at South Beach State park (nice course) and were hungry. Stopped in for the bbq brisket and craft dark beer! So good sides (baked beans and home cut fries). Good craft beer selections! FYI: If into frisbee golf, the course next to the redtsurant is VERY challenging with lots of blind forested shots and the first hole over a huge ravine full of sticker bushes....highly intimidating unless you have a long drive! But frisbee golf right across the street at South Beach is great for more entry levrl / intermediate players and has some nice sand for disks to lamd on. Bring your bug repellen!! read more

Best BBQ I've ever had! I've been hearing and seeing the buzz via social media about this up and coming BBQ joint "across the bridge and up the hill" in the Southbeach neighborhood of Newport. We were passing through town last week and had to see what the hype was about. We navigated to this new part of Newport that we didn't even know existed. Up at the top of the hill was this cool glowing log cabin like place on the edge of a forest. We walked in and were blasted by the insane smell of delicious BBQ! The place was slammed! Music, surround sound and just a cool vibe. A super nice gal greeted us from behind the bar, then came around and handed us menus with a big smile and sat us at a table by the window. She talked about the menu, special board, and how all meats are smoked in house (freaking awesome by the way), sauces made in house, bread baked fresh in house, etc. It was like sensory overload, but in the best way! She recommended some great sounding dishes. I went with the old school burger ground from their house brisket. She sold me on get it "Deluxe style" with fresh produce from their local farmer's market. (How cool is that) Best burger I've Ever had! Service was amazing! She brought our beers right away. Our food arrived a bit later. They were super busy, so we got it. There were 2 gals running the place. Both On it. Our server's name was Stacy. I didn't catch the other gals name. Mai Tai IPA was damn good. My buddies birria grilled cheese with consume (I'll get that next time). It was all extremely good! Great overall experience. Highly recommend. We can't wait to come back. In the meantime, we'll be shouting to Everyone we know to head "across the bridge and up the hill" to the BEST BBQ IN NEWPORT!!! Seriously. read more

Wow what great food !! The service was awesome! Nice people. The food came out quick and hot. We have tri tip and pulled pork

Good food and nice people! Go there! It says my review needs to be longer so here are some letters.

Very unfriendly spot, they locked the door at 8:15pm but hours says open until 9pm, there were people inside but no one even try to pay attention to me. read more

We split an order of pulled pork with 2 side dishes. Perfectly done with excellent side dishes. All flavors were well thought out. The server was friendly and knowledgeable. Very clean. 5 stars and we will be coming back for sure. read more

Great atmosphere...take the two minutes to get through the neighborhoods to get there! It's worth it!! read more

Found this tucked in a neighborhood. Had the chile Colorado brisket nachos. So so good. The brisket was amazing. Beer selection was decent. Good vibe. Bartender was nice. read more

terrible service at lunch on Thursday. The waitress asked if she could get something started for us. I requested a Pilsner beer five minutes later she came back and said that she couldn't read her own writing asked what beer I ordered. My wife requested a glass of water and after 10 min we had to call her back and remind her. In the end neither my wife or I got what we ordered. Same day I tried to contact the owner, left my contact information, no call back. read more

We were really looking forward to trying the Wilds. We checked out their menu and tap list, read their Yelp reviews and decided that was the place for us. We weren't getting into town until later, but the fact that they were open until 10p was another confirmation that we had made the right decision - until we found out it wasn't. We pulled into the lot at 8:50p. When my wife tried to open the door, she couldn't get it open. It surely must have been stuck, so I gave it a try. No, something wrong with that door because there were people inside eating and drinking. So we walked around the building to a door where people were exiting and they were the ones who told us "I think they're closing up". We couldn't get in to ask because the inside door was locked. At 9p! We had to look again at the sign on the door which said they were open until 10. My advice to you is to call before you go, regardless of the time of day to be sure they will honor their stated hours on any given day. Major disappointment. Guess they don't need the business. read more

Went once and ordered wings. Had no real expectations at all. Best wings I've ever had! They were smoky and tasted more like ribs. Cool, out of the way location near hiking and disc golf. Highly recommended. I'll be back. read more

Delicious food! Their meat is so tender. Great service there. I love the two meat two side dinner exquisite!

Tucked away in a little neighborhood nook you wouldn't even know existed at the top of the hill. The staff and owner are awesome, very friendly, and great vibes. The have a simple menu of options but the food is good. The Tri Tip Sammy with chimichurri is yummmmmy! The only thing I wish is they would have some kind of salad option, they don't serve salad and I'm not much of a fry person. read more

I dropped in for a late lunch about 2 weeks ago and this past Thursday. The owner and staff exhibited great hospitality. The food was well presented, unique and very tasty. If you are a foodie you should give this place a try. read more

Delicious barbecue, kind staff, great music! Fries were so fresh, homemade ranch for free, so good!

Wow, "MUST TRY"! Casual, laid back, comfortable & very friendly. They make you feel welcome. Service was great, a variety of beer & mixed drinks. Good Bloody Mary, Super impressed with the food. Great brisket, sausage, tri-tip, hand cut fries and Cubano. House made burger and house made cheese was awsome, lets not forget the chicken wings yumm. House mad dressings as well. Can't wait to try more. If you like BBQ you gotta try this place. This fine establishment definitely serves up the best BBQ on Oregons coast. read more

Best food we had on the coast. Everything is made there. My pet peave is ordering a burger and have the roll fall apart. They make their own and the French fries are cut fresh. Food was amazing. Can't wait to go back. A+ read more

The owner was awesome communicating with me about a reservation for our group of seven that included our dogs. Thank you! Thanks to his great communication, I was not having to worry about a day of adventures with friends and figuring out where we could enjoy beer, wine and great food after a dog walk on the beach. We loved our tri tip Sandwich with fries. Excellent fries. Our friends enjoyed the mushroom Brie cheese burger and their tacos. All great. Especially the service. We loved our wait service and her great sense of humor and attention to detail. Thank you for a great afternoon - we will be back! read more

Off the beaten path. Good forest views. The menu is only okay - mostly sandwiches, no plates. Sides were just okay too. Why 5 stars? The wings! The best I've ever had. I ordered them dry. Great choice. So smoky and crisp, but moist. They tasted more like ribs than wings. I don't care about anything else. I'm coming back for the wings read more

Very good food with friendly people providing excellent service. It was great to see the chef come visit and ask if we needed anything. Good ambience. We will be back soon. read more

First of all I'd like to say this is a solid BBQ restaurant , definitely the best my wife and I have tasted in the 53 weeks of belonging to this beautiful county of Lincoln. The service is friendly and give off a positive vibe. The chef that is making all the magic happen is Shane. This man has some mad skills. Best I've tasted in the North Western parts of this great beautiful location. Awesome BBQ, a good selection of brews on tap, Blues playing throughout the restaurant, not too loud. A definite winner, and a much needed BBQ establishment in the Newport Oregon area. I'd highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves great food and just a great time. read more

The food was fresh and delicious. Our server Kelly was fabulous. The chef/owner brought us our food, another stellar human. The vibe is relaxed and comfortable. Well worth the little extra adventure off the beaten path. Absolutely a fantastic place read more

Very meaty tacos so tasty, big space, very open, family and pet friendly, pool table. TV, BBQ. Great beer selection.

Uh...Barbecue really! Well, they have a smoker, and they have barbecue on the menu, but that's as far as it goes. The Tri-tip is cut so thin it should be called Wing-tip because it tastes like shoe leather. Also ordered chicken wings...the flats here good but dummies were dry and tough. They were out of brisket when we went so couldn't try that. Not Worth the $. read more

Brisket Mac and cheese was horrible. Brisket was tough and looked like steak. It felt like a rookie take on burnt ends. Some pieces were straight up fat, others looked like bark although very tough. Mac was under cooked and cheese was some kind of liquid substance.. No cheese flavor.. almost like milk with cheezwhiz mixed in. They added some hot sauce on too which did nothing for the plates. Brisket should stand on its own. There is a huge smoker out front that was cold.. I touched it.... assuming the meat was not cooked in there or if it was, the chef has no idea of what they were doing. We had 2 plates and both were the same, not to mention cold. This was at 1pm and not very busy.. $52 with2 sodas.... At least we weren't thirsty any more. read more
