We have been coming here for lunch since they opened and have never been disappointed. The quality of their food is awesome. My favorite is the pulled pork. I am a meat and potato person and have eaten enough barbecue to honestly say that this is some of the best I have eaten. The sauce served on top is great. This restaurant and bar has a very small town atmosphere where you feel very welcomed the moment you walk through the door. The service is the best in the area and they go out of their way ensuring the customer is number one. Thank you for your being part of our community.

Fenwick Island Social is a gem of a BBQ joint! The Catfish Salad was an absolute standout—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The pulled pork and brisket were equally impressive, packed with smoky goodness and melt-in-your-mouth tenderness. Hands down, this is one of the best BBQ spots in the area, offering fantastic food at fair prices. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, and its walkable location makes it super convenient. Highly recommend. I do wish their menu was posted online somewhere other than the photos associated to it in Google

Four of us had dinner at Fenwick Island Social tonight. The atmosphere and servers were fun and attentive. The menu had something for everyone and the food did not disappoint. We will definitely return again, maybe our new Fenwick Island fave.

Fenwick Island Social is a culinary experience located just outside of OCMD! The decor wraps you up in a warm, welcoming hug and the staff is so friendly and attentive. But the real magic? The food! I’ve had a few visits and everything is pure gold. We're talking flavor bombs with every bite, the chicken wings are wonderfully smoky, the smash burger is a juicy masterpiece, the pulled pork is perfection, and don't even get me started on the meatloaf (it’s a divine slice of comfort). You need this food in your life. I HIGHLY recommend this absolute gem!

Bartender Jay is great and he recommended the chicken thigh sandwich and it was awesome! It’s like chicken pork belly. That brownie sundae is as good as it sounds!
