    Chill venue with tasty, affordable food (pulled pork sandwiches, mac N cheese, fries, onion rings, BLTs, burgers), and live music weekend nights, and I'm pretty sure there's a full bar in the inside back area. You can walk to the beach in a couple of minutes from here. I was not hugged by any of the staff - which was kind of a let down, after reading another google review 😉

    Loved our visit to Beachcombers! Ryan behind the bar was awesome! He was super friendly and made the best brisket chili (he said he made it himself!). Great service and great vibes all around. We’ll definitely be back!

    Awesome place. Small, hole in wall gem. Love this place. We come here every year for lunch when we are in town. Walk up to the window, place your order, and they will let you know when it's done. Burgers and sandwiches are a must here. Quality ingredients, cooked and prepared freshly. Friendly staff and service. I had the Beast Comber, which was a bacon cheeseburger with pulled pork, smothered in BBQ sauce, and topped with fried onion rings. If you want a good lunch, or a coll off the beaten path hangout in the evening, this might be your place. Mostly outdoor seating, with limited space inside.

    Best brisket I've ever put into my mouth. Smoked to perfection, tender and moist.

    Don't let the looks of this place fool you! Such a cool vibe and delicious food, served hot! We came for a late lunch so it was pretty quiet. The staff was super friendly and helpful. If there's one thing I really appreciate, it's my food being served hot. We both got the 2 meat plate and you get 2 sides. My husband got brisket and ribs with Mac and cheese, and sweet potato tots. I got ribs and pulled pork with delicious, flavorful, and meaty baked beans, and Brunswick stew. The stew was wonderful and so hot I almost burned my mouth on the first bite. We both enjoy bbq and this food is up there with the best. Bravo! 👏👏
