Capt'n Bill's Backyard Grill

Regular pub food, nachos, burgers, various fried foods set amongst a backdrop of volleyball courts. A relaxed and chill spot off Market St. that is good for a laid back night in ILM.

Now. Let me tell you about this place. Imagine your old tennis club clubroom from the 80's but replace the courts with beach volleyball setups. Then add top drawer BBQ. As 'backyard'and low key as it gets but my goodness are the burgers to die for. The broccoli and cheese dumplings were outrageous and the overall vibe made it a memorable evening. Cranking some old school metal through the system didn't hurt either.

I just noticed that I had only left a 3 star review on accident. We have participated in Joe's Bucket Bash the last 3 years and have a awesome experience. They run the tournament very smoothly and the food and drinks are excellent.

If your a local or a tourist I highly recommend this place! John (Bills son) was the nicest guy. We were visiting from New Jersey and just so happen to find this place. I wish we found it sooner. John new that we never have been here before and he brought us fried pickles. We have never had them before and they were delicious! Next thing we know hes brining us fried banana peppers. Being from NJ we had never heard of such a thing. They were also delicious! After eating those here comes John again with koosies and a bottle of their famous BBQ sauce that his father made. He told us about his father passing away a little while ago but he kept the tradition going. We are so glad we did. For anyone looking for a place to eat stop here!! You wont regret it! They also have volleyball to play and plenty more! Awesome place for a quick bite or night out! Thank you John and staff for all the goodies and a great dinner with my family! You made out last night in NC a great one! We look forward to coming back!

Great food and lots of fun. Great place to hangout and watch or play volleyball. Family friendly environment. The food is amazing and there is something for everyone. In door and outdoor seating. There is always something going on.
