bar and grill

Papa’s World – First visit to Captain Archies with friends!

/ Tom / Leave a comment

We have seen this bar and grill every time we cross the Little River Bridge over the ICW into North Myrtle Beach – wondering what it was like – always seemed packed – we found out with friends!

MY LITTLE SMILE FOR THE DAY!

We had heard good things – music – drinks – happy hour and food!

There are boat slips here along with a marina – and all types of boat traffic on the ICW!

View of the slips and marina and the causeway bridge we travel over on our way to NMB!

Pam – Sherry – Papa and Bob – my grade-school – Jr. High and H.S. buddy from Eldred, Pa.

They were in a campground a couple miles from our home for almost two weeks –

we did a lot with them and this was our last night get-together.

This is only one half of Captain Archies – our food was very good and happy hour drink prices!

Pam and Sherry – we sat outside in the sun with views of the Marina and the bridge.

Palm trees – boats – great company – sorry to see them go – we played golf three times!

Bobby and Pam – we talked of maybe again in the Spring when they leave Florida!

Pam in oversized CAPTAIN ARCHIE CHAIR – fun times and lots of laughs!

PAPA’S WORLD – FIRST TIME VISITING CAPTAIN ARCHIES WITH FRIENDS – WE WILL GO BACK!

Papa’s World – OLD ANCHOR BAR – VILLAGES OF LEESBURG, VA.

/ Tom / Leave a comment

Growing up and raising our families 70 miles South of Buffalo, N.Y. in NWPA and WNY –

we grew up with the famous BUFFALO CHICKEN WINGS!

The Original wings came from the OLD ANCHOR BAR in Buffalo, N.Y. in the early 60’s.

We found in the Villages of Leesburg, Va. a franchise of the OLD ANCHOR BAR!!!!!

Of course, it is a “BUFFALO BILLS BAR” as well – and here you can get BEEF ON WICKS –

and all types of BUFFALO CHICKEN WINGS with the ORGINAL SAUCE!

Of course, we had to try it out and I elected to split an order of “BONELESS” wings with my son-in-law!

And – they were fab – now I do not like them “HOT” and these were moderate which was fine with me!

Marcus ordered a BLOODY MARY that came with a BUFFALO CHICKEN WING (LEG) on a toothpick

on the top of the drink!

I was told there were 12 franchises across the country of OLD ANCHOR BAR –

which I did not know existed!

Enjoy the blog as we enjoyed memories of BUFFALO CHICKEN WINGS –

Papa’s World – Somewhere near Pawleys Island and Muriels Inlet – is “THE PIT”!

You look for the mailbox – sitting near the main drag – if you were not looking for it –

Well, you would just drive on by!

You turn right there and enter a long gravel drive – and then there you are-

“THE PIT” bar and grill and dive bar – a “LOCALS” hangout!

Huge LIVE OAK TREES – and then you see DOLLAR BILLS on those trees and on the facade of the building!

An extensive outdoor seating area with what looks to be a stage for music-

This day – a Thursday late afternoon – no one was outside – it was late January!

But – my neighbors Steve and Diane said this is a happening place in season!

WALK THROUGH THE DOOR and experience another – well – sight to behold.

MONEY makes the World go round?

YEP – not one inch on the walls or ceiling was bare –

MONEY WAS EVERYWHERE – WELCOME TO THE PIT!

LIGHTS – FANS – TV – BAR – all covered in what seemed autographed “DOLLAR BILLS”!

Even around the edge of the bar – money everywhere!

License plates – and dozens of driver’s licenses – are plastered everywhere!

We truly have found a “LOCALS BAR ” and a bar that draws tourists like a magnet!

Steve – Diane and Sherry – sitting at the bar for a drink – I know sometime in the future –

I will bring people back here – about an hour away from where we live!

SREVE – DIANE – SHERRY and PAPA – CHEERS!

SOMEWHERE NEAR PAWLEYS ISLAND AND MURIELS INLET – is “THE PIT”!

Papa’s World – North Myrtle Beach – dinner at Local on the Water!

/ Tom / Leave a comment

Good day – while living for nine months at Ocean Keyes – which is in North Myrtle Beach – we became fond of

the place to eat right on the ICW is called LOCAL ON THE WATER!

View from the deck looking West along the ICW from the deck.

This complex has several bar areas and places to eat.

This also is the place where dolphin cruises depart along with boat rentals!

A big campground sits across the ICW on the other side.

The outdoor stage along with the covered outdoor bar – plenty of room to spread out and listen to the music –

this afternoon was a lone singer who was quite good!

Get there early as it fills up fast!

Our family was at their table – the rest of the kids were playing on the swings! You can see the main bar area in the background!

If in NORTH MYRTLE BEACH – check this place out – we have taken many guests here!

NORTH MYRTLE BEACH – DINNER AT LOCAL ON THE WATER – THE ICW – thanks for reading!

Papa’s World – Last night and family dinner at Inlet View!

/ Tom / Leave a comment
Family from NWPA – our final dinner together.

We went all the way to the third floor of Inlet View to eat and see the waterfront!
The bar area on the third floor.

It was Sherry and my first time being on the top floor and we said when we go back we will go up there!
We were told this is where all the locals come when they come here and also on the side is another deck they hang out on.

This is the view from that side deck – no one bothers them up there!

We had such a fun week with family and told them to FLY back and we would pick them up!

My youngest son Shawn and his wife Trisha.

Papa’s World – Fish Market bar & grill – Ocean Isle Beach and the ICW!

/ Tom / Leave a comment
The view from the top deck of the Fish Market bar & grill on the ICW & OBI harbor!

We had passed this from the causeway bridge every time we have come over to visit the beach.

And in reading up on it – found that it is the sister bar & grill to the one in downtown Shallotte N.C.

Which we were at one night after playing golf with the McBride’s and loved it!

Here – we decided just to have drinks and split shrimp wrapped in bacon!

I do not do this often so it was a treat for me!

AND IT WAS GOOD and fast service on that top deck.

You go to the bar – get your drinks – place your order – pay for it –

and it seemed like a few minutes a waiter comes up the steps and yells out your name with what you ordered!

The causeway bridge coming over the ICW from the mainland – we are four miles from here in our new house build
The ICW and beyond that the main land – this waterway comes into OIB where the bars are and gas pumps.

There is another bar and grill here called SHARKEY’S and next time we will check that out!

There are also boat rentals here – gift shop and fishing departures.

It is nice to know that we can be here in ten minutes from the new house.

I DID and LOVED THEM!

Thank you for reading Papa’s World
