Great place to eat and drink. The owners are amazing and they have some great mixed drinks. The new chef has been doing a great job offering some amazing specials on Fridays and Saturdays.

Wonderful place with an ever expanding list of renowned Ciders. Set in a refurbished brick home with a great outside space this is a great location to do a small Cider tasting and listen to live music on the back patio area. They normally have a new food truck on rotation so I would reccomend checking out their Facebook and seeing who they have coming through. You cant go wrong with a "Bite of Maine" or "Flame and Pie" which are local favorites.

Local beach right up the road. Buckroe doesn't have much to offer the tourist except the beach without the hustle and bustle of a touristy beach like the VA Beach ocean front.
