Testimonials

Chris, you nailed it! From the atmosphere created by the decor, lighting, and music to the staff's friendliness and attention to the incredible food! I had the blackened tuna sandwich and onion rings. Both were amazing. The only issue I have is that this is 3 hours from home! We're in town for a few days, and already, I'm thinking shepherd's Pie, which also sounds amazing, is on the dinner menu tomorrow. Thank you for the perfect lunch.

Marilyn

I’ve never done this before. I have never left a review. But this place affected me so much that I simply could not pass this opportunity by.

IT….IS….INCREDIBLE!

The atmosphere, the people, the food. All of it is incredible. It is truly one of a kind. It has a speakeasy vibe from the decor to the music.

If we lived closer, we would definitely be here more often.

Don’t change a thing!

Brian

We came to celebrate our anniversary. Everything was perfect, and the bartender, Josh, surprised us with a complementary dessert. Would definitely recommend!

Whitnee

The apps all sounded so good that we had to get 2: the Spinach and artichoke dip and the pork belly. The dip was an extremely generous portion and the best I've ever had. We got the hangover burger and Mccoy. Both were amazing but quickly dwarfed by how delicious the street corn was. The cocktails were great, and the atmosphere was perfect. Truly deserves the 5 stars even after they said they were wiped out from the holiday weekend. I can't imagine how good this place would be at its peak. Definitely worth going out of your way to eat here; you won't regret it.

Stopped into 302 The Local on a dreary winter day this week. This eatery elevates your mood immediately with its chill speakeasy vibe. The staff is welcoming and very friendly. From our server to the bartender to the cook, each one stopped to check in to make sure we were pleased. The old-fashioned cocktails are the bomb! It's a refreshing and original change of pace from typical selections. The menu has something for everyone and every mood. You could easily just pop by for drinks and appetizers, come for a meal, or relax with cocktails and dessert. On this day, we got cocktails, wings, pretzel sticks, and pecan pie served with ice cream. What a positively delightful experience. Looking forward to going back to try their smash burgers and hotdogs! Highly recommend.

The 302 Local offers a unique dining experience. Its decor creates an atmosphere that transports you away from the beach, and the food complements this perfectly. It's a delightful escape from the usual local fare.

302 The Local held a Benevolent night for the MERR Institute. The food was great, as were the drinks and service. Everyone was pleased and will return!

Susan

A wonderful surprise - I was looking for the “best” burger near me. And this truly turned out to be a great surprise. The Food was exactly what I needed and wanted. The real McCoy is an outstanding choice. You won’t be disappointed. Ricky was helpful with any questions and made a great old fashioned. This place does not disappoint.

Jessica

Wonderful meal. The service and atmosphere were beyond expectation. Ricky at the bar is incredibly helpful and makes a great smoked old fashioned. The food is perfectly cooked and so good. Had to get the pecan pie to go.

Kevin

Fantastic spot. I stopped in for lunch today and had the pot roast sammich (per the bartender's recommendation). It was excellent. It has a great atmosphere as well.

David F

One of the most well-stocked bars in town. The mixologists create inventive and delicious, unique cocktails. Ask for Josh.

The food is terrific. Reasonably priced comfort food.

Michael M

A great spot for comfort food and professionally made drinks. The Hangover Burger is maybe the best around. Try to get a seat at the bar.

Dennis

Everything about this restaurant is wonderful. The staff was charming and welcoming. They constantly checked in to make sure you were OK and if you needed anything. We just ordered starters, but I already can’t wait to go back. The inside of the restaurant was dimly lit and had very neat decorations. It was cozy and comfortable. I loved that they had couches and comfy chairs as seating. All of the food was delicious - the pretzel sticks were soft. The wings were crispy. The funnel fries were delicious. Highly recommend!!!!

Katie

Visited this Saturday after Christmas. Parking easy and the vibe gorgeous! We were seated immediately, then told that they were very short that tonight, to please be patient, and that his mom was coming over to serve water soon. Well, Mom was adorable, and the food was awesome!!! The staff, even though they were struggling, were so polite and patient. They seemed genuinely happy to work there. We can’t wait to go back.

Shelli

Incredible burgers and pork belly. Our favorite new spot. Brought our 2 kids with us, and the owner's mother was very sweet and accommodating of the kids. Treated us like family. It has a great ambiance and amazing food! Definitely recommend.
