Great bar, it has was warm vibe, mostly locals.
Went to watch a college basketball game, has a nice big screen for games. Drinks were good, bartender was friendly and attentive. Ordered the hot wings, they were great!

Mudbugs… live music out front, karaoke and watch your games! We have been here many nights, but tonight after ordering my hot wings which are always delicious, we decided to try THE ROCKEFELLER DIP!!!! Holy smokes… I’ve never tasted anything quite like it. It was spicy and creamy and just a delight to eat! Try it. It’s one of those things that makes a place like this even more special. Sitting on the front porch as Leslie masterfully played a range of “cover” songs beloved by all. Caro serves the delicious drinks… and you cannot beat the prices. We love this place. <3

If you’re anywhere near town and don’t stop by Mudbugs, you’re seriously missing out. This place is the definition of a true hidden gem. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with a smile and served faster than I ever expected—the bartenders here are incredibly friendly, quick, and genuinely on top of their game. Even when things get busy, they never lose that personal touch.

Now let’s talk about the food—absolutely fantastic. Not just “good for a bar” good… I’m talking legitimately delicious. You can tell they put pride into everything that comes out of the kitchen.

As the night went on, I noticed more and more locals rolling in, which says a lot about this place. Yet even with the house filling up, the staff remained just as welcoming to us tourists as they did to their regulars. That balance of local charm and visitor hospitality is rare, and Mudbugs nails it.

Whether you’re a local looking for your go-to spot or traveling and wanting something real and authentic, Mudbugs delivers on every level. I’ll definitely be back!

Oysters were good but a little over seasoned – that didnt stop me from eating every single one of them . His fish was good, he ate it all as well
There is only 1 pool table but it is nice. The staff was great and fun. There’s outside areas in the front and the back of the building that are nice.
This place and people are a great fit for my boyfriend and I. And the prices are surprisingly low compared to other places.

Mudbugs is the kind of bar that doesn’t just serve drinks — it serves mercy.

I stumbled in on karaoke night and proceeded to unleash a setlist that went from Arthur Brown’s “Fire” (complete with unnecessary shouting) to Johnny Cash’s “Hurt” (which hurt everyone’s ears), then slurred my way through Sabbath’s “N.I.B.” before finishing with Sinatra’s “Mack the Knife” — more like butchering the knife.

In the middle of my performance-art meltdown, I toppled out of my chair and baptized the floor in a foamy tide of canned Guinness. Did they kick me out? Nope. The staff just smiled and kept the good vibes flowing.

Mudbugs didn’t just tolerate me — they made me feel welcome, like my drunken karaoke disaster was the headliner they’d been waiting for. If you want a place where you can sing terribly, spill drinks, and still be treated like family, Mudbugs is it.

Long live karaoke night. Long live canned Guinness.

This a fun dive bar. They had $5 Margaritas for Cinco de Mayo! As of right now, they don’t serve food, but they may be changing soon. For a fun atmosphere and great drinks, I highly recommend.

Mudbugs quickly became THE vacation… we legit went every night. Whether it was busy or a weeknight and kinda chill, we lived for it. The staff – many we now call friends… are unreal. Wanna go somewhere that you can find every type of human and just let go of reality? I hope it is like that for you and yours…. We look for any and every reason to return now. Some peeps are looking for “things”… I dunno…. I love “feels” and good times. Cheers!
