I'm not sure how anyone could rate this place less than 5 stars. From the outside it looked cool. Then when I walked inside the initial host was seriously a totally great young man for my entering. Then since I was alone, I sat at the bar table and the waitress was totally perfect the whole time. The food I got was seriously perfect for real. I've never been in this area in my life but if I am ever back in this part of the country, I will definitely stop here again. read more

The staff here was very friendly, but our takeout order unfortunately got mixed up. After a long day of traveling, we picked up what we thought were a shrimp po' boy, seafood chowder, and Brunswick stew, but ended up with chili instead of the soups we ordered. My husband even went back to fix it, but we still didn't receive the right items. By the time we got to our hotel, the food had been sitting awhile, so some things (like the onion rings) didn't hold up well. The po' boy lettuce also had dark edges that weren't from the wait. Overall, really nice people, but the order mix-up made the meal disappointing, especially since we couldn't easily return once we were at the hotel. read more

Picked this out of Yelp and was not disappointed. We even needed to backtrack as our hotel was two exits south. Great food and drink. Just what we wanted after some time in the car. They were out of my first choice beer, but that happens all the time to me. My next choice was even better. I highly recommend this place. read more

Go elsewhere. Food is not worth the price. Service is hit or miss. Overall environment, lacks quality.

I ordered a Reuben and there was maybe 2 teaspoons of sauerkraut on it. And the meat was dried out, over cooker cooked. Was expecting better on my first visit. Disappointed read more

Upon arrival, I requested a specific area, away from the middle and asked if we could be seated in one of the open booths next to the wall (I was waiting for two of my elderly friends to arrive and one had made that specific request). Then the male host ignored the request entirely and tried to suggest an area completely different and in a highly populated seating area to which I repeated that the original request and explained that it was the request of my elderly company that would be arriving soon. He then grabbed some menus and with a gruff and irritated manner asked me to follow him. I thanked him and said I greatly appreciated it. The part of the evening that was the reason for this post was not the food, the food was great, I ate every bite. It was the fact that I left a large cash tip, but was charged for one of my friend's checks on my card (though I was given the correct receipt). My order was less, because I ordered a water with my meal and she ordered a beer. (Note: they charged her for a Tea that she neither ordered or drank). The waitress was not on her best game and no obvious reason seemed to be enough of a reason to be off her game. The center of the room stayed empty and there were only a few people in there, so it wasn't due to being super busy. I doubt that I'll return. My elderly friend suggested going there, I've only been approximately 3x before last night, but I can't afford for those types of mistakes to be made. Again, the food was good, but often times it's the service or lack there of that decides whether or not I'll return there. It's a matter of trust for me. If I'm going to tip you good, it's due to good service. She was polite and engaging, but she made mistakes of a financial manner and that, especially these days, is monumental for a lot of people. Do better please. read more

I thought this was a Mexican place for some reason, but it is a sports bar. They were really busy but we were seated right away. Our server came quickly and took and delivered our drink orders. We ordered the shrimp app. I cannot remember what it was called but they had a sweet and spicy glaze. They were cooked perfectly and there was plenty for 2. I chose the Philly cheese steak with tots. The meat was real steak. Not the thin processed stuff you get some places. There were plenty of onions but no peppers or mushrooms so they missed it there. The cheese was provolone and there was plenty. Tots can be tricky. These were perfectly crisp and not mushy so they did a good job with that. The server was very friendly and got everything right, however I think they were very understaffed. We could see our server constantly but she had a lot of tables and did not get to our table often. This appeared to be a management issue. It did keep us in the restaurant longer than needed. read more

hostess was great. That's it. Christina B didn't check up on my table I had to ask for a refill after almost 15 minutes of waiting . Nachos sat under the heat lamp so long the chili was dried chips stales . She messed up both burgers and cherry on top the "kitchen" forgot my food. I asked how long for my food she thought I asked how much it is. Then realized I ordered it and said she will check on it. I don't know if that was true or not but it honestly seemed like she forgot and tried to cover it. I've worked as a server for several years and I understand it can be busy and overwhelming and mistakes can happen but this was too much. whether she had a bad day or not her service was not even decent enough to even consider coming back. Even the people sitting behind us were complaining and ended up not wanting to eat there. read more

Got off 95 looking for something quick to eat and not just fast food. Everything's made in house fresh service was outstanding and friendly prices were reasonable. Salty balls are amazing Fun well lite family friendly environment read more

Exceptional service from Jessica. All the staff was hustling. Food was fresh, hot and tasty. Definitely would return, wish it was closer to home. read more

We arrived a few minutes before 7pm which is when happy hour ends. Our waitress didn't come to our table til after 7 so we missed happy hour. The reviews weren't the best so I didn't have high hopes but the food was really good. Steamed Shrimp - 9/10 Fresh shrimp. The Buffalo dipping sauce was tasty. Lemon Pepper Wings - 5/10 I like that they were fried hard but the seasoning didn't stick. It tasted like I was just eating unseasoned chicken. Rib Dinner - 10/10 The rib meat was so tender it fell right off the bone. The mashed potatoes were creamy and smooth. read more

There's nothing terrible here. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger rare, and it was halfway between medium rare and medium. Still edible, but a little disappointing. The bun is boring. The bacon was basically just warmed up--it should be golden, not off-white. The fries were dry, the onion rings were greasy. I think I'm making it sound worse than it was. It was just mediocre. Since it's 3 blocks away from my house, I would come back if I was craving a burger, but I wouldn't recommend it to friends. read more

Ordered potato skins and steamed shrimp. Both excellent. Waitress was attentive and friendly. Casual atmosphere. A step up from normal bar food. read more

Forever the seating is bad. The bathroom is only one toilet and it took forever to get our food and the right

Best stop off the highway! Easy to get to, easy to dine in. Met friends here on the way to Fl. Definitely would stop back by next trip. They have a HUGE menu!!! Like huge..anything you could want..they have. Tons of seating options from booths to bar to patio and outdoor spaces. Live music over the summer. Helpful and friendly staff that did a good job and seemed to actually care was a huge perk. The food was generous portions and reasonably priced. Would recommend if you are on the fence about stopping in. I would stop again. read more

Stopped here to have dinner while traveling to North Carolina. The parking lot was jammed which is always a good sign. Typical ale house set up. My wife and I decided to split a meal and decided on the shrimp and fish dinner. The fish portion was huge and fried to perfection. The Coating very crunchy and seasoned very well. The shrimp were coated with a lighter batter and delicious as well. The roasted potatoes were roasted with onions and very tasty. The meal was big enough to split and there was some left over. read more

Toucans Ale House - Shrimp and fish dinner - Bars Near Me - Brunswick, Georgia

Brunswick stew was great! Cajun dry rub wings were mid at best. Service was quick and the staff was very friendly.

Traveling through from Cape Coral, FL to Myrtle Beach, we stopped for the night around 9:00. Googled restaurants near out hotel and Toucans came up as a late night eatery open until 11:00. We went and sat at the bar. I had the chili and my husband had the wings. Both delicious!! Heidi was our bartender/server. Super friendly and conversational. This place will definitely be a future stop on our travels between FL and SC. Thanks for a great experience. read more

Nacho's are soggy but everything else was fine. Hope this place makes it as it ain't an easy business.

Service was great, food was great, atmosphere was fun. Highly recommend. Impressed and will return.

I would give it 0 stars if you could. The restaurant was not busy. I was seated quickly and server asked what did I want to drink. I asked for an unsweetened iced tea, she brought water, I didn't mention it, she clearly wanted to be somewhere else. When I ordered my Turkey club sandwich with no cheese and the avacado ranch dressing on the side, she never asked if I wanted the fries , tots or onion rings (1.00 extra). After waiting 20 minutes and where I NEVER saw this server again, I left the restaurant. Secret shopping and dining is a must For businesses. This location failed miserably. There was no excuse for waiting that long for a club sandwich. I had been there many times before and never had an issue. I will not be back. Other restaurants who are more attentive will get my hard earned money. And even though I am a solo diner, I always leave 5.00 Minimum for a tip. And, I'm very easy to serve and get along with. Toucan's needs to make an impression on servers attention to their customers and for goodness sakes, SMILE... read more

Everything is always good here. We come very often and we normally sit at the bar. The staff is great and Heidi is always great.

5* ambiance, especially Friday night when there's live music in the courtyard. Ryan is an excellent server. I loved the baked potato. read more

Stopped in for lunch while traveling on 95. The sign on the building said "fresh, local caught shrimp". Sounds great I thought. Turned out to be the biggest mistake of my trip. First, if you're not a regular, expect to be treated with indifference if not ignored. The " fresh caught local shrimp" was actually frozen popcorn shrimp straight out the SeaPak bag. The menu said it came with fries & hush puppies but I only got the fries, which frankly were the only edible part of the meal. If you're thinking of stopping here, DON'T. You'd literally be better off with gas station hot dogs across the street. read more

Toucans remodeled a year or so ago however the chairs n tables, and majority of rest of restaurant, still looks the same. Waitresses and hostesses have never had a good attitude and that hasn't changed at all either. Waitress never made eye contact and took our order from her computer screen standing behind my wife. Prices are fair. Food is pretty good. read more

One star is too generous. We came here hoping for a good meal. What we got was a masterclass in how not to run a restaurant. After being seated, we waited and waited... and waited some more. No appetizers. No entrees. Just the sound of our stomachs eating themselves. After nearly an hour--and multiple times asking--we finally got our appetizers. Cold. Lifeless. Like they had been sitting on a counter just hoping we'd leave. The entrees? Never even showed up. To add insult to injury, they comped the appetizers in some kind of guilt-fueled gesture, which we never asked for. We were willing to pay--we just wanted food. Only saving grace was our server Jewel, who was hustling and clearly embarrassed by the whole circus behind the scenes. Drinks came out quick, which is good because we needed something to get us through the disaster unfolding at our table. The kitchen? Completely dysfunctional. This isn't a restaurant--it's a trap. Do yourself a favor and eat literally anywhere else. Never again. read more

Sports bar feel with a lot of TV. So if you want to watch the game this is a good place to check out. Our waitress was really friendly. The crab stew was homemade and full of crab , it was also really good, it came out a little cold at first but our waitress fixed it right away. They are really focused on customer service, as the manager was checking on everyone in the restaurant. Can't wait for football season because I will definitely be back. read more

When you order an 8-piece of WINGS, you expect at least 50% of your order to be flats/wings, right? Wrong. I received 7 pieces of drumsticks and 1 wing. I had just landed and returned to the Brunswick area after a 26-hour flight. I was so hungry that I didn't notice until halfway through my meal. After I made mention of this issue, they gave me a 10% discount, which to me felt like a slap in the face. 7 wings and 1 flat. LOL. The chicken were essentially sauce-less. Still practically had dry and clean fingers after the meal. My waitress wasn't bad but clearly did not inform me that 95% of my order were going to be drumsticks. The ambience in there was flat out depressing. I ate my 7 drumsticks and the 1 single flat, paid my tab, tipped the waitress, and jetted out of there. Won't ever be returning to this whack establishment and I'll be sure to let everyone around me know not to come to this place if they don't want to be served unfairly. read more

Toucans Ale House - Nachos with the chili on the side Husband loves their wings - Bars Near Me - Brunswick, Georgia

It was ok. I had chicken tenders and they were real chicken but they were quite small. They use to be larger. It was fine, I like more sauce on the tenders. The wings were ok. Fries ok. Nothing was a real stand out. I fell like the food wasn't as good as it used to be. Maybe it's just me. Blackened fish sandwich was swai fish, not familiar. Husband got chopped steak..on mashed potato's. It was actually quite good. Not a real standout meals...just ok. read more

Stopped in here for some appetizers & a quick drink during a busy shopping day & we weren't disappointed! Good prices on beer & our server was great! There is outdoor seating but it was a bit too chilly the day we went. read more

Our server, Mackenzie, was absolutely the best and our food was delicious. We had peel and eat shrimp, loaded chicken fingers with fries and potatoes skins. All were delicious but I'd have gone with 2 orders of the shrimp and skipped the potato skins but ONLY as a healthier option but all the food was tasty and Mackenzie was very efficient and checked on us often. I'd go back in a heartbeat! read more

The fried shrimp was perfectly crispy and succulent on the inside. Steak was a little bland but went well with buttery mashed potatoes. Service was attentive and exemplary of southern hospitality. There's an outdoor patio with room for dancing. Great night out! read more

Toucans Ale House - There's a steak under that shrimp! - Bars Near Me - Brunswick, Georgia

Terrible, terrible, terrible!!!! I ordered take out on my long road trip and it took them over an hour to make one order of quesadillas?! Then it was cold, onions and peppers not cooked through and cheese not fully melted. The tortilla was soft and oily! It was absolutely disgusting! The wait staff didn't know what they were doing. They had a bus boy seating guests. There was no manager to be found. People were standing around and customers were upset. NEVER EVER GO HERE! I will be driving to the next exit and never taking this one again because this place is the only option there! Yuck!!!! read more

Stopped halfway on our ride to NC and decided to try this place. Parking lot was packed but we got a seat pretty quick. Lots of things on the menu and we were very hungry so hard to decide. We started with some Brunswick stew. Very tasty and thick. More like a chili than a stew but pretty good. Next we split salads, one house and one ceasar. Both were tasty and fresh. The caesar was a tab over dressed though. For my main I got the hamburger steak with onion gravy and steamed broccoli. Very good flavors but the hamburger was over cooked. The broccoli was perfect. Deb had the cajun shrimp with mac n cheese. Shrimp were very well cooked and tasted awesome but the mac n cheese needed seasoning. Was just too bland. Over all a sold stop for a decent meal at a decent price but nothing that will wow you. Service was great but we did have a few long waits due to difficulty getting people to get of the dole and come back to work so the staff was short handed. read more

This place is exactly what you'd expect. Just normal bar food. Customer service is good, and they have some funny decor / menu items. I really liked the mozzarella sticks. Even the mild wings are very spicy so beware. read more

The service has been great. Kaitlyn is really sweet and super helpful. I like the music playing. They have heaters outside so we don't get cold. Plenty of distance and space. The food was good.

My wife and I stopped here for lunch on our journey home. It was in close proximity to I95. I can't wait to return. Waitress was quick to bring water and get us started with our drinks. Waited maybe 3 or 4 mins for my beer which she recommended and my wife's Margarita. Both were good enough for a second. Food was brought out quickly and was very tasty. Cooked to our request. Price was very reasonable. All in all we will be back our our next trip to Florida(time of day permitting) read more
