Reviews of The Pond Bar & Grill (Restaurant)

Jim Williams

Thursday is Trivia Night. Unless you play, best to stay away. Needed a hot bowl of soup of the day. Guess the kitchen does not serve hot soup or hot meatloaf for that matter. Service was quick and friendly. Menu selection was adequate. I'll choose another restaurant next time.

Wynter Skyy

This is a must when in Rehoboth! Great food and friendly staff! I highly recommend going on a Sunday as they have live music which is great for people watching. This place is a great little local spot.

Debra Meagher

The Pond is always an excellent place to visit. Was especially happy to see Ariel was bartending!

John Silberstein

We only had a light bite, but the Ahi Tuna taco was delish!!!

Food was ok. My 13 months old food came out raw. Instant 1 star. Also didn't have any kids seats. So it's no a family place at all. But the staff was very nice and the beer was good.

Jodie Tomko

Staff is great. Food is great. My friends and I go back every year.

Patty mayo fan

Well thought i was going to have a great night. Got here host said 20 min fine. Then he sat us right away. Waited 12 mins for a waitress. She informed us the host wasnt suppose to seat us yet. We asked y. Here there is a 30 to 35 min wait on ordering and that dont include the prep time for our food. I have been coming here since when they were The Frog Pond. I have never had any of these problems on any of the holidays over the summer. We have been come down here for the past 28yrs. Brought my sister along to experience The Ponds food and dancing and karaoke. Well lets say not a good experience so far. Lets hope the music n dancing is better. Very Very disappointed!!!! Should exspect something out of this bad experince since we r here twice a year for 28 years!!!

Just James

306 Bayard

Great food wonderful staff

Shelie Ingram

The drinks were perfect, not too strong, not too weak. The sandwiches were very delicious. Service was great, fries were hot when they arrived and sandwich was messy in a good way, had the BBQ. The cute bartender w/ long braided hair, kept her regulars happy and smiling. Her smile lights up the entire place. It's a small but clean and friendly little place. We were tourists and we visited in the afternoon, we meant to come back in the evening but didn't get the chance. When we visit again we'll stop in for an early dinner, for sure. We even bought T shirts. The locals are friendly w/ the tourists in this bar. In fact, Rehoboth Beach itself; is very tourist friendly and fun. Not too over crowded either.

David Glitsch

Typical average pub grub. Fried pierogies were phenomenal

Timothy Gabriel

Great food and great service!

Jeanean Freeland

The food was very good. Friendly staff even when we were all in Steeler jerseys. Clean and fast.

Chloe Jackson

Food was okay. A little bland for me. Typical bar food. Good atmosphere minus the constant swatting of flies, but I guess that's to be expected at a beach side bar. Seems like it could be a really fun place with music and a packed house. When we went here it was middle of the afternoon and fairly empty. Staff seemed familiar with the people who did come in and sat at the bar. Our waiter was friendly.

Bhaktini Sound Shaman

Great food great prices great atmosphere. Need to carry bottled water though

This is Me

It is ok. It has changed alot, but the French dip & drinks were good.

Great burger and the special filet mignon were terrific.

Adam Taylor

Great venue for hanging out and listening to a band.

Jack Dickson

Had 3 great meals here. Very helpful staff and friendly, Oleg our waiter was the best.

Jen Field

This place has been around forever and ever amen! Lol. Still as cool as I remember it when I was a late teenager sneaking into bars to hear music many moons ago. Friendly staff heels the door. Great music still. And clean...I saw someone dancing barefoot in the dance floor and usually in a bar I would've been grossed out by that but the finished wood floor was so clean and beautiful that I thought I might take my shoes off too!!

rita kane

Fun place. Good music . Room to dance. Food not bad for a bar.

Kim Crouch

Always have a good time at The Pond. The bands are the best!

Suzanna Mallow

Fun, quirky menu, live entertainment consistently, friendly bar and wait staff!

Ken Walsh

We ended up here by chance and turned out, it was trivia night. After the music was turned down, it was good entertainment while we ate. We had the triple burger which was nice and juicy. The baby back ribs were good as was the cheesesteak.

Bea Mulhorn

Great food and great live music!

Jasmin Moulden

My family and I had a great meal, great drinks, and enjoyed the atmosphere.

Michelle Harvey Curtis

The ribeye sandwich was truly truly delicious the crab dip was a little too cheesy but it was delicious. I had pork tacos they had good flavor with a little kick and were huge my friend and her husband had the burger and a grilled Reuben and they said that they were delicious too. The sweet potato fries was the second best I've ever had and as I've stated before I don't even eat sweet potato fries but they were delicious. The buffalo wings sauce was a little watery but the chicken itself was fried good and had good flavor.

Theodore Gross

Food wasn't that great, by john (our server) was amazing, and funny.

Will St Peter

My two year olds food came out last about 8 minutes after everyone's. Soon after that we realized our 12 year old never received hers. The food was horrible. We will never eat here again!

I went in early for a meal before New Years Eve. The food and service were excellent. Great atmosphere. Large menu to choose from and a great craft beer menu. Reasonable prices, especially for a resort town.

Sidney M

Wish server would have checked in on family more than was actually accomplished. Been there 3 times and this is the only time I have had a problem with food or service, I firmly believe it was an off day and would usually highly recommend

rdgehron

Very fun place, bingo nights are great. Good menu and friendly staff.

Michele Booth

Great place! We will stop back next time down!

JAN STEFFENS

Great food , staff and music!

Kitchen Boy

Despite many years of visiting Rehoboth, this was my first visit to the Pond. Great joint, in the best sense. Great craft beer selection and steady stream of musical bands. If you get a chance to hear Lower Case Blues, do yourself a favor and stay for at least one set. Amazing blues band and Jake the guitarist is as good a bluesman as you will hear on the eastern seaboard. I have heard many of the all time greats, and this guy is impressive. Anyway, fun place that I will visit every time we are in Rehoboth.

Kathy Schmidt

The service was excellent. The seafood dish I had was good. The others in our party were satisfied with their food dishes also.

Megan Roccograndi

Brett M

Nice pub/restaurant just off off of first street in Rehoboth Beach. Very casual, shorts and tshirts. Great selections of beer. The food was very good. Salad portion was a bit small but very good. Bacon cheeseburger, chicken wrap were great, along with the wings. Place was very busy but the wait wasn't bad. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Will definitely return. ****just a note to Management, get that AC working properly. Was definitely very warm in dining area.

Mac Gardner

Always a fun time at the Pond. Live music is a great feature. Food is really good and priced right with daily specials. Friendly bartenders! Ask for Liz, Peter, Donny, Ariel and Q for some of the best drinks in Rehoboth. Drink specials too.

Paul Donovan

Could be cleaner but typical for the beach. Awesome ppl and food. Can't believe the music is free.

Love this place - great menu- great service. Trivia night is so much fun.

Brian Peasnall

Great local institution. Wednesday night is open mic night (high energy fun!) and half price sandwiches during the off season. The sandwiches are fantastic. The wait staff are friendly and pleasant. This is a good night spot when you are in Rehoboth Beach.

Great place to eat and drink! Great prices! Excellent Batender name Liz! The Best! Heavy hand. She makes best drinks. Very friendly place and romantic.

Angela Norwood

Awesome spot! Great live music!

Josh O'Connor

Service was friendly, gave great suggestions and was to the point. Split 4 apps between my gf and myself, we both enjoyed everything and it's priced accordingly! Music choice jumps back and forth between 1 direction and pop country but that's a minor setback.

Robert H

Nice place, good food and great service, give it a try.

Eric Spruill-Jenkins

Young lady bartending was very, nice, friendly and helpful. My husband and my first visit. We will return.

We went on Monday night half price burger night. Burger was cooked as ordered, waffles fries were way over cooked, left in the frier to long. Service was great.

Susan Coudriet

Stopped in for lunch while on vacation. Great food and friendly service.

Kari Corbett

Awesome food in a great atmosphere.

Bad Eric

Best neighborhood bar in town! This is my cheers bar! I love the friendly demeanor. The Ponds concept is what most bars in the future will be like. Everyone's welcome! Although it started primarily as gay establishment, it's a place for all. A place without a label. Everyone is treated well and nobody cares about your orientation. The food is gourmet bar food. Best wings in Delaware. Better than Hooters or Buffalo Wild Wings. Awesome build your own burgers with good size patties! Plenty of beers to choose from. I love getting a tower or a bucket.

Hannah Wilmarth

Decent food, prices are high, but better than most of the other places there. Sizeable menu.

Greg Tice

They charged us 32 dollars for 20 wings. That's absurd.

Matt Walter

Good drink specials and it was Taco Tuesday. Waitress was very attentive and made sure everything was perfect. Great atmosphere.

Valerie Crain

Always a fun time. Foods ok, atmosphere is relaxed

Ed B

Lisa Anderson

Fabulous place friendly patrons and staff! The live band was Wonderful! Shout out to Charles guy on the door!!

Kestrell Lowe-Goff

We ordered the cauliflower bites, jerk chicken chili, and fish and chips meal with the crab coconut bisque. Everything came out very quickly and piping hot. Definitely recommend trying something because everything we had was delicious.

Joseph Catalano

First time in Rehoboth Beach and we hit the pond for lunch one of the days. Nice little bar restaurant. Nothing fancy just some real good food and drink. The fried cod fish tacos were pleasantly awesome with the homemade sriracha tarter sauce on the bottom and the slaw on top made it a awesome fish taco. Definitely a good spot.

Wh Pooh

Super friendly staff, awesome food!

Lorraine Tubo

Best service and food, great specials!

Mary Sanchez

I'd give 5 stars if the patrons were a little more welcoming. My daughter and I have been going here for fried pickles since she was in elementary school. They are the BOMB. They also have some wonderful specialty cocktails.

MrsLWilfong

Absolutely love this place! The staff is above and beyond polite and friendly! Good food and always great entertainment!!

Robunn D

Fun place with great food.

Teresa Childress

Nice, clean establishment! Good food. Gives military discount!

Caitlin Tice

This was so disappointing. This place charged $16 for 10 basic chicken wings. That is outrageous. On top of the pricing, the wings were undercooked and lacked flavor. We will never go back again.

Susan Fowler

Had a great time with friends

Sylvia Williams

Went for a good tour, it was very nice. I would like to go back for a game night!

Eric Larson

Favorite Rehoboth Pub

Frank Dillon

Good lunch specials, good service.

Great live music wonderful service

Zack Leonard [jude1783]

I've been going here with my dad since I was in elementary school

Wayde Taylor

As a regular who comes in at least 3 times a week I was really disappointed by my Monday experience, Usually when I am there I am greeted by sweet responses from Davey, Rhonda and Steve when I showed up this time I was greeted by "What do you want" after finishing one drink I order another after my friends had left and put a napkin over it when I went to the bathroom, when I returned the bartender "Donny" had already thrown out my drink, not thinking its a big deal and it was just a mistake I had to flag down the bartender several times asking specifically for service while he talked to a young blond without avail, finally when I asked him for my drink, first he tried to recharge me and then said it was too late to serve anymore and said I needed to leave. When I asked him again about my drink he said "don't make me throw you out" which, being fully sober at the time I have never heard in my life, I left but will never be back, I am sorry the great rest of the staff has to deal with this and hope the place will improve it has been a staple for me since I moved to Rehoboth but sadly I feel like I am not welcome anymore. This was my worst experience since I moved to Rehoboth and a shame since usually this place is great.

Gwen Gohn

Very disappointing...there were 10 of us (plus a baby) The lady server seated us in the back b/c the music was loud. She came back and asked to move to another table and we said no, we prefer this table. 10 minutes later a different server showed up and demanded that we move to another table. Very rude, I wouldn't give this place 1 star.

Great Burgers! Huge Fried Pickles! Cool Cassette Wall display!
