The Corolla Beer Garden

This is one of my all time favorite vacation bars! Been going there every year we go to OBX (Outer Banks). The vibe and scenery is just chill and relaxing. They have a ton of unique places to sit. The owner likes to keep an eccentric mix of beers on tap. I alway pick up some cool swag too. It is actually family friendly too. There's a pizza place next door where you can eat while drinking and kids can run around. If you like beer you must go!!!

Super cute beer garden with plenty of options on tap and in cans to choose from. It's a little off the beaten path, but that also keeps it from getting overcrowded which I really appreciate. There's no indoors at this place, so if it's raining or bad weather this is probably not the spot you want to be at. But when the weather's nice it's a great spot to grab a beer, cider or hard seltzer and hang out with friends. There's decent space for kids to run around here too, but they don't have the types of games and options that other spots like Coastal Cravings have for them, so bring something to keep them occupied if you come here. Service can be slow at times especially if you're putting in a large order with a big party, but the line moves quickly and bartenders here are friendly and accommodating. There's no food here either, so make sure you have a plan for when and where you're eating before coming.

Such a fun hidden gem! The first line for drinks was really long, but you can try your luck going over to the left where the seats are the bar are to get a drink, that worked for me. I got the Berry Lemonade which was great! I really enjoyed it, it was unique & refreshing! My sister thought it was too sweet though. Everything is all outdoors, there is limited seating but you can ask to share tables! And there is usually live music. Drink prices were very reasonable.

Jack took good care of us and was full of local recommendations on where to go for a unique food experience. Great local place with a unique outside flair! Definitely a place to check out early afternoons. Can't wait to go back!

We were in area for the lighthouse when we got back on road and happened upon this cute out of the way hidden bar.. set in scenery of oak trees and plenty of shade.. this beer garden had lots of beers to choose from.. one bartender was helpful and friendly .. when he put your beers on tab he put them in a mouse trap hanging behind the bar! Crazy right? The bar seats were barrels ! They do offer some food but basically chips and salsa or bag chips nothing fancy. They also have gift shop upstairs for shirts and stuff with logo on them. The service here was good the atmosphere is very chill and there's fans going to circulate air so not do hot sitting outside! Really glad we stopped and will be back when we come this way again!ko

Very cool place! Lots of beer choices from draft to cans. The draft beers are $8 so not cheap. They have a ton of tables and cool furniture to choose from. It's a very large space and they play music that most people will enjoy. One important note! Bring bug spray or cover yourself from head to toe. We all had shorts on and we could only stay for one beer because the bugs were so bad!!! Our ankles and legs are covered in bites. Certainly not the places fault, and it's still worth a visit, just come prepared.

This is where you go to get a good beer. Lots of choices. Great outdoor seating in the shade. Cool chairs made of driftwood. Staff helpful. Bathrooms a bit or a trek.

Have always seen this place and wanted to stop. We did and now we could be regulars. The seltzer is the bomb! Fast service, and great ambience.

Not quite what I was expecting, but I like the "hole in the wall" feel. Very laid back, but good service. Lots of seating with plenty of shade. Many different beer selections from IPAs to Shandys to Seltzers.

We ended up coming out here twice during our vacation. Corolla overall seemed to be on the quiet and sleepy side so there's not a lot of exciting stuff going on in the area, but this beer garden is a hidden gem that kind of redeemed it in my eyes. I absolutely loved it here and think it has some of the coolest vibes. It's just a very relaxed little outdoor bar with about 16 or so craft taps, and a variety of seating, all under a huge shady tree. Drinks seemed to be a good mix of local beers with a few cider/seltzer/lemonade type options for any non beer drinkers in your party. Food options were a few snacks they had available, but it appeared you were also free to bring/order food from elsewhere to enjoy there. Both times we went, there were a lot of families and kids enjoying the day together there. The atmosphere seemed perfect for relaxed conversation and for hanging out a while.If I was in the area again I would absolutely love to get a chance to visit the garden again and spend some more time here.
