REVIEWS OF Docklands Riverfront IN Delaware

Jack Schetrom

Very nice area to have a walk along the river. Bicycles are permitted. Goes for a long way and has multiple areas to eat, drink and have fun. There are water taxis also. Unfortunately the schedule/ times for the water taxis is not posted nor is it listed online. Only the inclusive hours are listed. Police monitor the area riding up and down on modified golf carts. Sunday morning was very uncrowded. Weddings are held here in the open areas.

Patrice Soares

Excellent experience! The food was good and the service was excellent. My server, Brittany, was so attentive and sweet. Just loved her! Enjoyed the patio and cocktails. Will definitely be back this summer! Live music would be great at this venue, too!

Melissa Leonard

Great happy hour spot

Without getting into a long story- the bottom line is make sure you are taking care of your customers. Honestly, I work in the service industry so I am already 10 times more empathetic to a server in general but I also am 10 times more aware when I’m receiving really poor service. Check in with your guests, ask if everything is ok. See if they need any condiments ( I never even got offered ketchup with my burger and couldn’t find the waitress so I ate my burger and fries with no ketchup). Again, I’m not one to fuss so I let it go. My friend accidentally spilled her wine all over herself and was really embarrassed. When she asked if she could have just a top off, the server said unapologetically “sorry, but we don’t do that. You’re going to have to pay full price” and walked off to grab a mop. It just left a bad taste in both of our mouths, since we both work in the industry and know that this is something that happens (accidents!) and being cheap over one glass of wine when we are throwing out $18+ for entrees is crazy. Plus, the attitude of both the server and manager were poor. Would love to come back here and support this business, but I doubt I will anytime soon. Just remember that your customers are how you keep your doors open...No one ( at least not decent people, I can’t speak for everyone) is trying to rip you off for a free glass of wine! **If this truly is policy, you guys might wanna at least take it on a case by case basis and make you your judgement based on the situation.**

Master Lee

Nice place to have drinks and socialize with friends or a date.

Scott West

Great atmosphere. Sometimes can take a while to get a drink at the bar as was the case last night.

Andrea Lennon

First time being there, very nice outside seating and deck. Live music and plenty of room to mingle. Food was good and received plenty for the price. The waitress we had was absolutely, the worst I have seen in a long time. She took forever , it was not crowded at all, and we asked for refills on our drinks. She took our glasses and came back with them filled but never dumped the melted ice and water out of the glass. Have know idea if I even received my glass back or I received my husbands. My suggestion ...if you ask for a refill ask to have your glass dumped first or ask for a new glass. I probably will go back but I will make sure I get a different waitress.

Kenneth Kreider

Great place for food and drinks always great service.

Tiana Lewis

great food and atmosphere

Alexandra Viscosi

I went there when it was Firestone and I would say the biggest difference is the food and atmosphere is more casual. Same pizza, which was good and still it, and still some steak options but a lot more sandwich like foods. Nice covered outdoor space. Very cute place helps to round out the new vibe the area is trying cultivate. 4/5 because even though it was pretty empty the service was a little slow and it would be nice if they had single serve pizza options instead of having to share or take home. Would go back.

Richard Stearns

Nice wait staff.

scott cave

Nice outside bar

M Draper

Nice out side lounge and bar menu

Elisa Fermin

Hello and good day. My name is Elisa Fermin, I visited your establishment yesterday evening Oct 6. At the time of me ready to leave around 12am, I went into the ladies restroom and upon entering a stall I almost fell because I stepped into a very huge smeared pile of vomit. As I stepped out of the third to the last stall, closest to the entrance, I became more aware that there were smeared streaks and footprints of the vomit residue all over the bathroom floor and black rug and leading out the door. I stopped three other customers from walking into that stall and I immediately reported it because I didn't want the same incident to happen to someone else and it needed to be cleaned up. I went to the front service area and requested a manager to inform them of the vomit and also my concern as a customer who just finished eating at the restuarant with high concerns of cross-contamination. I was directed to a manager whose name I believe is Sara. At first she was understanding and attentive to my concern but then as I explained to her that I was not feeling confident and completely turned off and wanted credit or a refund she immediately became hostile, blatantly said no and proceeded to minimize me and my concern. As I was speaking to hear I was baffled because I was still processing what happened. But the manager at that point was completely rude and had a nasty attitude. I am a long time Delaware resident but I have been traveling for the weekend and I told her I was coming from DC for an event happening in Wilmington and stopped in for a meal. And going through that experience stepping in a huge smeared pile of vomit was not a pleasant or sanitary experience at all. For the matter that the vomit was so spread out and foot tracks of it was leading out to the restuarant, of course I immediately had concern for cross-contamination and turned off overall. The manager sneeringly said the staff check bathrooms every 20 min and that cross-contamination can't spread that fast in that time frame. That is not true at all, I have a relative that works very closely with the health department and this incident will be forwarded. From there, she proceeded to state how it's a Saturday night so the bar/restuarant is popular and proceeded to minimize me by nastily saying "you've never seen people throw up at bars in DC?". I did not answer this redundant and rude question because that was not the point and I did not want to create hostility nor side track from the actual matter. I truly was confused as to why she was speaking to me in a hostile tone, being disrespectful and not appropriately addressing my concern and request. So I apologized to her and asked if I offended her which she said no. Yet, she continued to aggressively repeat the unnecessary question as to do an "if and then" statement to prove a point that truly was not valid or relevant. With each asking and me not answering she would forcefully follow through with "I'm just asking, I'm just asking". It got to a point where she was so fixated on whatever poor judgement and invalid point she was trying to prove that she completely dismissed me and I simply walked away. I tried my best to communicate with her in a reasonable non-emotional and non-defensive manner but she was continuously hostile (which it was clear that it she made it personal) and her professionalism and concern for the well-being of the customer and the Dockland brand was completely absent. I choose this place because of the positive and good reviews. The initial impression was great especially since it is a signature venue of the historic Wilmington Riverfront. And my time there for my meal with my friends was fine, I enjoyed it. But the disgusting unsanitary incident I had along with the rude service and poor character and judgement from the manager was really disheartening and disappointing. I will not be returning to this establishment again.

Thomas Olson

Who doesn't love happy hour on the river? Drinks are decent, food is acceptable.

Elisabeth Morales

When we arrived we had free valet parking at about 6:30pm on a Friday night 07/26/2019. The atmosphere was great!! When we was ready to leave my phone was at 5%. I requested for my vehicle from valet parking at 12:15 am. After receiving my vehicle and paid $5.00 tip. I went to reach for my charger and it was gone very disappointed. Would not recommend valet parking if you have anything of value even a charger cord. God forbid I had to go far.....

Good food good service

Elias H

Great environment and great food.

Bhadresh Patel

I really like going there. Good food, good service.

Erica Begatto

AMAZING!!! This was my first time back since it became Docklands! I was looking for a place to have my moms 60th birthday party and after talking to the banquet manager Sarah, I was sold! I had never had a party there so wasn’t sure what to expect but honestly everything was absolutely incredible. Sarah worked with me to ensure I had enough food for all of the guest, perfect setup, and timing for the food since it was a surprise for my mom. I wanted everything to be perfect the day of so of course I was a little nervous but not only did everything look amazing, timing was perfect, food was out of this world, and all of the staff (especially the bartenders) were fabulous. Sarah checked on the party several times to make sure we had everything we needed. Not only did my mom have an amazing party, all of my family and her friends did not stop raving about the food and staff. I have had a few parties at different restaurants and hands down this was the best experience. If you are looking for a place to have a party of any kind, Docklands should be at the top of your list. Awesome job Docklands and huge THANK YOU to Sarah for all her hard work and support in making my moms 60th birthday one she and I won’t forget! You truly rock!!!

Val Anderson

Drinks were good

Lisamarie McCarley

Lovely place. Right on the canal/chanel. Live music and good food.

Jim Allen

Good service, good food and drinks, fair pricing. Would recommend.

Thomas Murray

Stopped in 4th of July with 4 others. Best of all experiences st the riverfront. Good food and service.

Darienne Empire

I had a blast at this place. I liked the eclectic crowd, drink specials & spaciousness. And music.

Glenn Lang

Great spot for the younger adult crowd

Antonio Lostchild

Great environment...great crowd..great staff..I'm there every Friday...

Mike Spencer

Great Outdoor patio and staff

Jesse Scott

Great restaurant on the Wilmington riverfront. Awesome place to catch all the football games on Sunday!

Manju Varghese

Crab cake and cauliflower wings were so yummy! Right by the water. Gets packed at night

cory king

Great service, nice selection of beer. Amazing deck for when the weather gets nice

Traci Dean

Docklands Riverfront has brunch, and its amazing! We have went twice now and had great meals each time. We are going to make this our new brunch spot in Wilmington!

Xiomara Davis

I enjoyed everything about my brunch. From the reasonably priced mimosas to the Nutella pancakes. Things came out in a fair amount of time and we were seated right away. The visit was very last minute but we were very pleasantly surprised. The pancakes were made to perfection. It was a great commitment to my drink

Shyrell Dunston

Great atmosphere right on the water, lounge area and drinks was satisfactory, and my daughter and myself had cheese steak rolls and hot wings very good.

marc marc

It's a nice place could be a little cleaner , but big nice bar and outside seating

Charlotte Anne Bond

Much better second time around. There were good beer and food specials. I got the shrimp po'boy with salad. It was way too much food, but it had been done well. There were two berry beers on the specials board. I chose the Pynk berry tart. A bit sour, but balanced with the berry tones. Beer was nice and cold even in a bottle. I will likely go back.

Terri Stewart

Definitely typical AVERAGE Delaware spot, their version of good is always sub par or below average. The food was basic, flavorless, over cooked and under seasoned but expensive. The service was slow to non-existent. My Prosecco was served in a Stemless Wine glass so it was warm at best. The dance music was very, very bad... from Country, Raggae to the Adam Levine wanna be singer ... Figure out who you want to be, Pick a STYLE and cater to that, stop trying to be ALL things to ALL the people, you're missing the mark!

DJ Bryant

Had a burger that appeared to have been bitten. And it was hidden under multiple pickles! Management was nonchalant about the issue. Really? The rest of my family was good with their meal. That's the ONLY reason they received more than one star...

Ernest Edney

Don't buy the wings they sold me old warm over chicken wings hard inside and smell old. Called to report incident to manager and was disconnected or he hung up...

Christina Young

Great atmosphere. Good music. Fun people. The food was great and enjoyable. Specifically those cheesesteak rolls. Will be returning

Andrew Middleton

Good Latin dishes, presented as large servings. I had the pan fried chicken (as in the whole chicken!), wife had the carne asada. Both presented well, I like the carne asada more than the chicken, but that was because we got full on buffalo chicken wings and salmon sliders. Overall, I enjoyed the meal, recommend you visit when it's not crowded. We were there on a Sunday afternoon.

Alicia Greco

Service was great but the food was subpar. Likely will keep this on the list for happy hour but not for meals.

Cecil Jiles

Very cool and nice atmospher

Dani Beam

This place is such an experience; if you want live music and riverfront night life, they have a huge outdoor patio to eat on. If you want a more quiet, sophisticated, more relaxed setting, the inside of the restaurant has a really cool atmosphere. The food was amazing and I loved the ambiance! Would definitely recommend!

oompa loompa

Food was good value. However the service was not very attentive. We were indeed a large group 20+, but the server was not very well trained not motivated. We distributed the appetizer plate ourselves. Manager was eager to come out and ask if we were doing ok . Should have told her but....

Debbie Forster

Great place for drinks

Bobbie Hicks

Great restaurant in Wilmington

Jean Parker

Very dissatisfied tonight. First visit and no servers at tables inside nor outside at the bars. We had to go up to the bar for drinks and food, no wait staff, seriously? Drunk patron and the outside bartender blew us off when we mentioned how obnoxious he was. Very hot inside at the bar area. I definitely do not recommend this happy hour, will not be back

Ms. P.

Lovely place to spend a warm summer's evening!!!

Corina Hodges

Taco Tuesday was a blast! Great prices and awesome service. I couldn't be happier! We will be back for sure when we visit Wilmington!

Aurora Banuelos

Not good for groups of six or more. We had dinner with a group of six people on a Tuesday evening from 6-8 pm. We asked to sit out on the patio and we were placed at a six person table in the sun. There were no other people on the patio so we pushed two tables together that were in the shade and tried to sit there. A host came out and told us we couldn't sit there. It's their policy to only have the one six person table in that particular position and all of the other tables have to be kept separately. We could only sit at the tables in the shade if we split into two groups. We again asked if they could accommodate us because there was *no one* else there. The host responded that if they conceded to our request they would have to do it for other people as well. I would like to point out that during the entire two hours we were there, the patio remained empty. Anyhow, not wanting to be in the sun, we then asked to sit inside. It turns out there are no large tables available inside either. We were squeezed into a round booth with a chair added to the opening of the booth. Overall, I would say avoid this place. The restaurant had the opportunity to make a great impression on six people who had never been before. Had we been able to sit on the patio, I am sure we would all have become recurring customers. But the restaurant staff was unwilling to be flexible and none of us will ever come back.

Aaron Smith

Properly poured drinks. Great view. Very compentent staff. More beer choices than you need. Went there for a company event. The food was quite good, if it's on the regular menu I'd definitely recommend the Philly cheese steak rolls. Pizza was good too but not ground breaking. Bar staff and rum and cokes were as strong as I've ever had. Parking was not awesome but tons within a short walk. If your in that neck of the woods and need a bar.....I couldn't think of a better option. Event to plan....they have multiple rooms and the banquet server was outstanding wish I would have caught her name. Attached to Barclays so it is a little hard to see upon approach from the north.

Jaclyn Rayne

Pastrami sandwich wasnt good. Husband loved the pizza. Service was OK, the waitress was really nice but the kitchen messed up the same entree 2x.

Valarie Bond

Party place with good food

T. REGINA Williams

Staff is pleasant and helpful. Fries are great but the Cuban sandwich, while tasty wasn't my idea of a Cuban. All in all a pleasant ex5.

Danesha Smith

I had the pleasure of having my college graduation celebration dinner here on May 11, 2019, and it was amazing. I wanted something intimate and elegant, and Dockland's Riverfront embodied just that. I met with the Event Manager, Sarah on the layout of the room and meal options. She was very thorough and made sure my requests were fulfilled the day of! I had 48 guest in attendance, and the waitresses were so professional and organized with everyone's orders. The food and drinks came out in a timely fashion and were plated beautifully. It tasted good as well. My guests left extremely satisfied as well as myself. All in all, if you are planning to have an event in the Wilmington area, I strongly recommend Dockland's Riverfront.

Christopher Nesbitt

I'm a bouncer there come and enjoy yourself!

Gary Washington

Was there for New Year's eve celebration good food and great time.

Johnnie Watkins

Really enjoy the outdoor patio. Great atmosphere and food. Will be back for sure before summer is over.

Michael Anderson

The food is really good and the service is really quick with bringing it out. They are pretty accommodating as well if you have any food allergies. Also let me just add that they have one if the best Jamo & Gin I've ever had.

Tracy Bell

Waitress would disappear when we asked for drinks. Then come back to the table without them. She gave us plastic cups when we were eating inside. We had to ask another waitress for small plates because we not were supplied when we did order appetizers. Then we had to ask another employee for a pitcher of tea due to the disappearing waitress. The food was coming out and another waitress brought it and had her thumb on my food. The last time I checked, no fingers should ever touch the food. Take the fake nails off when serving. Then we had to ask another waitress for refills on water. It gets so much better. We ask for the check. We then have to wait for the disappearing waitress. We get up to see how we could pay and I get your waitress has to take it. I said, we cannot find our waitress. So how can we take care of this. Then another waitress said, your waitress has to take care of it. I said , again we cannot find our waitress. Three if your employees stood around looking dumb founded as to what to do. I finally said can one of you go get her. This was the most horrible experience with individuals choosing to work in the service industry. I will let anyone who ask about your restaurant know my experience. I do refer to large groups.

Peter Annarumma

Nice place on a canal or lake, couldn't tell which. Outside looked nice but since it was February we stayed indoors. Looks like Wilmington is trying to revitalize the area.

Willys Nyabiosi

Awesome wings, Pizza and staff. Great place to hang out

Anna

The happy hour nachos were great would recommend. Personally felt the menu was on the smaller side though and I didn’t have that many options. I don’t personally eat any ham or bacon which was the majority of their menu. The view and service was great though.

Josephine Busey

Working in Wilmington, there are a lot of great places to eat with colleagues or catch happy hour after work, but Docklands is my favorite. The food is amazing (I cannot resist ths cornbread croutons on the salads), and the atmosphere is perfect whether it is warm enough to enjoy outside seating, you are celebrating with a private space, or you want to sit at the bar. Truly a gem.

Chad Racine

Best wings around.

Jason Balan

Great bartender s outside realize $$$$ customers! very busy....

Sage Russell

Staff is very friendly but the layout of the bar makes it a bit cramped. Better during nicer weather so you can sit outside

Gary Griffith

Good food and service along with a fun atmosphere.

David Park

Love this place. Great place for drinks

Tiffany Davis Lyons

Food was good, I had the pizza. Service was great, we had a party of 16.

Melanie Honie

Loved the pizza and drinks

Lee Marney

great place to go for a good time

Katie Lester

Went to taco Tuesday two weeks in a row and had two completely different experiences. Two weeks ago the food was delicious/cooked perfectly, there was a nice band playing and I had a great experience. Yesterday the pork tacos didn’t have the pineapple in them that they had the previous week and the pork was extremely overcooked. We are also informed they ran out of steak for the steak tacos at only 5 o’clock, so early & the main tacos we wanted. Finally, the bill was wrong for the drink specials but my husband had already run his card and we just wanted to leave at that point. My review is an average of my two visits.

sharelle Lemons

Great atmosphere, friendly staff and good food Half price pizzas every Wednesday

Marlin Barrier Jr.

Spacious, laid back and fun. Nice mixture of people and age range was broad. Felt safe the entire time.

Kayla Hardy

This place was off the hook fun! Came here for my birthday with some friends. We stayed outside where the band was playing and danced all night. The place had plenty of people everywhere and Its right on the water. Amazingly fast service at the bar.

Virginia Tyson

Way to conversative. Trying to have a fun night with family but over the top converative.

Julian Ortega

We all visited Docklands Riverfront last week. They were having Taco Tuesday and we had a great time! I'd highly recommend checking out their happy hour specials.

Brittany Lane

Great food, drinks, and music

John Maxwell

It were good foods

Trizz Carter

Beautiful venue. Great cheesesteak egg rolls

David Cram

It was a little on the pricey side for lunch. We ate outside. Our party was big enough to need 2 tables. Even so, the service was great. The food came quickly. Everyone's food was excellent

julia penna

Very strange place. Plastic glasses inside, really? Out of mint and tomato juice, no mojitos or bloody Mary's. Go to the store and get some. Waitstaff knew nothing about drinks or food. Is there no training? Fortunately, the food was pretty good. Atmosphere inside is not inviting or fun. Really needs work.

Alexis Ciotti

Great drinks with every visit. However, with the removal of certain happy hour menu items such as the hummus, now little to no vegetarian options.

Thomas Schmitt

Good food and service.

Alicia

It is really a great spot for happy hour! The food is good and the music is good!

J J

I won’t be going here anymore. They charge some of my friends $3 for miller lite and then charge me $4 for the same thing. It’s beyond crowded that you can’t ever enjoy yourself on Fridays or Saturday’s and they have hardly anything outside to cool anybody off but one or two small fans you can’t feel any relief from.

Wendy Scully

Pleasant service, good food. It would be more enjoyable if the view was more attractive (for daylight customers ).

Xavier Jack

Best restaurant on the Wilmington riverfront, highly recommend!

Collin Chand

Great restaurant in Wilmington

etfjohn

I chose Docklands Riverfront as the setting for a "Celebration of Life" gathering for my father after a memorial service at the Delaware Veterans Memorial Cemetery and all I can say is WOW! I worked with Sarah to plan the event and I couldn't have picked a better place. Being from out of the area I didn't know what to expect but the setting was beautiful and I couldn't believe the compliments I received from my family about the food and location! The staff was very friendly and took great care of my family and with about 50 people coming they were even thoughtful enough to block out parking spaces up front! For those that have read this far, I am a 60yr old man and I ask for reviews for my business almost everyday and I have purchased thousands of dollars of merchandise and software from the internet with everyone asking me to write them a review and in all that time I've never written a review good or bad but I was so impressed with Docklands that I wanted to share my experience with anyone that wanted to read it! If you've got a party to plan call Sarah and go to Docklands Riverfront!

Jose Rivera

This place was amazing!! It was my first visit and it will not be the last!

Tristan Williams

Same menu and interior as the restaurant it replaced (Firestone), so nothing new here. Seems like the same place but with worse food. The service was good though, so there's that.

Mark Blevins

Amazing view and perfect place to have happy hour! Easily the best place for happy hour in Wilmington!

Christine JL Hines

Super fun riverfront bar! Band and music was good!!

shakina Womack

Celebrated my fiance's 50th birthday here. We booked one of the rooms for a private dinner. I had to sign a contract & put a deposit down.Things were a little rocky in the beginning b/c of our large party but Sarah the event coordinator was very helpful. Both her & our servers were very accommodating. I would definitely do it again just with a smaller size party.

Steven Williams

I was with my son, such a good thing

Fray Lynch

Great happy hour prices

Rhonda Bowman

Private Party Room - FANTASTIC We called Docklands to host a dinner for 16 family members. I worked with Sarah, the events coordinator and she was wonderful, responsive and accommodating. We preordered appetizers to be ready as guests arrived and they did not disappoint. We had Jess as our server and she was attentive and was a GREAT server. I would definitely use Docklands again and highly recommend them for private group gatherings .

Christina Clark

Went there for lunch and the place was pretty quiet, which was what we were looking for. The food was decent and the drink prices were reasonable. Had a great waitress!!

Jeremy Monaco

This place sucks I was here Saturday night with 3 friends and the bouncers are rude and kicked me and my 3 friends out for no reason and refused to even talk to us or tell us why. I would never go here again the bouncing staff is the worst I've seen at any bar and the name change isn't going to do them any good if they don't do something about their terrible staff

Talanda Price

Enjoyed this area for hanging out with my mom and sisters.

PhantomMenace76

Good food and atmosphere

Stephanie Thomas

Ordered shrimp po boy. Nice size shrimp. Need more/ better sauce for sandwich.

Minner Mouse

Staff, food, drinks were good and we loved the live music, the valet guys were great

Ankit Verma

Good place. Terrible samosa chaat. Lol

Natasha Patrick

Great food, Great staff, Great atmosphere

Anthony Mozzo

Great food and a decent beer selection

Curtis Bell

Cool spot. Great food. Had the fish tacos and was very happy. Cocktail menu is great and so is beer selection. Great atmosphere too.

Barry Dine

Great happy hour specials everyday! Highly recommend the half prize pizza on Wednesdays.

Mike Dub

I love the open area. I get lost when I'm drunk there

Jennifer Krantz

Had a work lunch here. Atmosphere was good for talking some business, server and food were quick. Had the steak a s prosciutto salad. It was amazing! Got a very big portion of steak, enough to make a second lunch out of.

Si Rodgers

PURE ENJOYMENT ‘! First time there! Definitely my go-to-spot on the weekends!

brigitte brown

I totally enjoyed the dining experience. Even though we went for lunch the food was good the service was good the atmosphere was good kudos! There is also an outdoor eating area next to the river it was just a little too hot for us to go out there on that day, but in the evenings they have a bar outside with a large covered area for seating mingling and sitting at the bar.

Drew Holmes

Taco Tuesday is where its at! Great happy hour specials and awesome views of the river. High recommend.

James McClain Jr

One of the best burgers in the business and the bar staff is pretty awesome as well.

LC Collins

Nice atmosphere. Good food and excellent service. I enjoyed myself and the music they played. Very chill place.

Asher P

Outstanding food and atmosphere. The bands are usually pretty good too. Great place for dancing.

Bill Stubbles

The only place to eat on the Riverfront as far as I'm concerned. The staff are awesome and the food and service are top notch.

nna ekwueme

Nice place to chill and listen to good music

Lorraine Peterson

Great live music on the weekends. Food is decent and the drinks are awesome!

Natasha Montero

I came here on a Friday night with a group that unfortunately had several people that did not RSVP. I was not invited directly, so I contributed to the number of attendees being inaccurate. I'm saying this up front, because at times, things were a bit chaotic. I did find the location and ambiance to be very charming. The menu was very tasty and diverse too. After ordering my lobster melt, my group was offered to move to a larger space in the back of the restaurant. I was able to receive my food at my new seating location without issue. However, some folks never received what they ordered and there was a sad unclaimed chicken fettuccine off to the side. Again, this was due to the underestimated group size and relocation. I liked my sandwich. I just wish I could've visited with a smaller group. I'd give it another chance.

Kaelyn Word

Great food! The only concern of mines is that they need more variety of bands that does every genre. I noticed more rock & roll, country, and alternative bands. It would be nice to see some pop, r&b or rap bands. But truly a good place to be!

Roxanne Andrews

We arrived close to noon. My guy prefers sitting at the bar and was pleased to see one outdoors on a beautiful Saturday. Unfortunately, we were told the bar was closed until 3pm. So we reluctantly moved to the nearby deck. Our waitress arrived soon and we ordered drinks. However, my guy asked for a wheat brew, but the waitress said they had none. Having reviewed the menu earlier, I intervened saying there's one listed on the menu and pointed to it all the while shocked she didn't know it was available. We wanted and asked for sweet peppers for the pizza we ordered, but got bitter green ones instead. My guy still disappointed we didn't get to sit at the bar, glanced over at it and was shocked to see two men sitting there and being served, while others came along filling practically every seat at the bar just minutes after we were told it wasn't open. Trying to overlook yet another blunder, we finished eating our tastey pizzas sans the pulled off bitter peppers leaving the waitress a generous tip despite the less than remarkable service, and accommodations.

Jean Choma

Nice scenery. Very good food. Great service.

Kari Lamb

This place is so cool! The outside atmosphere is relaxing and carefree. The live music was on point and the service was great even though they were busy! Will be back.

jo pi

Finding a place to park is almost impossible. If you're sitting outside under the tent you might be deaf before you leave. Besides that, the food is pretty good.

Vena Dandy

Had a great time!

Logan Jenkins

It has a good vibe. Great place. Waiter could have been more knowledgeable

John Davis

One of the worst bars in Wilmington. 5 to 10 mins for a bartender to get to you. The entire front patio smells like weed. The bartenders take priority over obnoxious people rather than those who wait. Multiple people skipping the 10$ cover charge, with the bouncers not caring. If john Schafer visited here he would recommend shutting it down. Docklands fix your issues or the police will be called on multiple occasions

Beth McHugh

My husband and I hosted a rehearsal dinner for my son's wedding at docklands. The food and the service was excellent! We would recommend this to anyone and everyone.

Belle vancleve

Our waiter Jack D. Left a lot to be desired. He was very slow and very inattentive. The bill was totally messed up and we pretty much had to straighten it out. The tip was ridiculous. It was $50 for poor service. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone and I certainly would not come back. I can get better service at Burger King.

Julia M Pillsbury

We had a great social event there. Food and drinks were excellent.

Jyotir Mercer

great food and live music

Christine Castellente

Nice riverside seating, but only average quality meal which was ot served hot.

Mcb

The food is good and the view is nice the only downfall is the lack of parking

Great food. Great ambiance. TERRIBLE SERVICE! LITERALLY THE WORST. Our server kept forgetting our order, our silverware EVERYTHING! That might have been my last time there #next

Milly Bernard

Good spot for drinks. Live bands suck. DJs with turnt up music are better.

Lisa Darden

Great wings, pizza and cheese steak eggrolls

Virgie Westray

Had a blast

Mark Hess

The place to be every Friday and Saturday night in Wilmington! Awesome live music and DJs

Attended an Annual Meeting Social hour and the venue was great. Staff was extremely accommodating, helping store luggage so I could enjoy my time worry free. The appetizers were amazing, fried mac and cheese and charcuterie boards my favorites.

John Corsale

Great nightclub and dance floor. Not too expensive either and service was great! Kevin Miller's Smashed was an awesome venue. Hope to see them there a few more times.

Ed Preisendanz

Mike Quinn

Service is not good ,food is not good , other tables around me all returned food while sitting for dinner,

Roxanna Fenwick

Awesome brunch menu and decent service. They have a lock on atmosphere with an amazing location on the riverfront. I would eat here again.

Kenneth O'Reilly

Buffalo chicken sandwich was good. Make sure they put the blue cheese on, tho.

Joe DeMaris

Taco Tuesday! Very very good!!! And 2 bucks!!!

Service was on point and food was amazing

James Benn

Outside wait staff sucked with exception to Greg. The tall Causation Lady would walk by and not say a word, very sad for an established business. I kinda felt like it might have been racial, considering the lack of eye contact and interaction from most of the outside Bar Staff. The focus should be race relations, because these clowns are truly absorbed in the Trump era.

Pitbull Mom

Went last night for a couple drinks. The drinks tasted great and it was a very nice atmosphere and at reasonable prices.. also, their pizza is really good! Will definitely be back in the future!

Jimmy Perry

Able to quickly come out and fix out HVAC system. Thank you so much for your great HVAC service.

It was suggested as a place to meet by co workers. It was a great time, dinning out side was perfect. We will return again soon.

April Williams

Food is good. Nice bar area. Parking is terrible

Dannie Kibler

Great happy hour almost every day at Docklands. Go here a lot after work.

It is a beautiful outdoor venue with great views and a pretty good crowd alongside great entertainment. I would definitely recommend checking it out. That being said... My friends and I generally prefer Trolley Square because there is a $10 cover at Docklands during summer weekend evenings in addition to the hefty drink prices. (No cover anywhere in trolley) – The indoor venue at Docklands is very poor and needs to be renovated such that the front room is where the band/entertainment is (rip out the booths that nobody sits at and put up a stage!!). Basically everyone is jammed into a small bar area including the band when things are inside... It is not fun and people constantly bumping into you. – I have had the food once and found the pizza just ok, definitely not worth the price. I will try other things on the menu in the future... But this is a nighttime place for entrainment more than it is a restaurant. And it is very popular! I also wish they had nights with a DJ only instead of the Band/DJ combo where the DJ only gets 20 minutes... I think having a DJ play all night would be a huge hit! People love dancing to a DJ!
