Ocean Isle Beach Night Life

Posted on 07/09/2013

Ocean Isle Beach might be a family oriented beach, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t some night life. You just have to know where to find it. Sitting on East Second Street, next to the Putt Putt course, is a charming local spot “Pelicans Perch”. You may remember this as the old bar “Salty McDoogles” or more recently “Second Street Bar and Grill”. This local hot spot has recently been taken over by new owners, and completely redone. The bar has been moved, the walls have been redone with stone, and it has the beautiful look of a beach bar, with all the class of the city. You really have to check it out while you’re in town. With a family friendly environments before 10, and a 21 and over only crowd after 10, this place isn’t your run of the mill OIB restaurant. Great local food,  friendly employees, and a fantastic bar.

Pelicans Perch has live entertainment every night in the summer, some nights karaoke, some nights bands. Don’t forget your ID because after 10, they do card at the door. This place is hopping after hours with locals and vacationers alike. Come on out and sing karaoke on the stage while sipping on an ice cold drink special. Your on vacation---- and we don’t judge!! Pelicans Perch is Ocean Isle Beach nightlife at its best!

Looking for a place to bring the family during the day or in the early evening? This is a great spot too. Don’t let the fact that I am categorizing  it as “night life” deter you. This place is beautiful and fun in the day light too, and is a great place to bring you kids! I was there a couple evenings ago watching a hockey game, and a family with 3 young kids came in for dinner. Karoke started a little early that night, and the kids got to get up on stage and sing a few songs before it turned into a bar for the evening.  Per NC state law, there is no smoking inside, so you don’t have to worry about that either. With both indoor and outdoor seating, this place is one you cannot miss while on vacation! Visit “The Perch” on Facebook to learn more about the summer entertainment schedule and menus.
