A seventies type bar/ pizza joint that is well worth the visit. A slice of pizza which is really three pieces anywhere else is around 4 bucks and is great. The staff is super friendly and I would return without question. The interior will keep you amused just reading all the stuff on the walls!!! Good pizza, great service and a good time was had by all.
Review Source:Best place to eat on tybee that we visited.
It's difficult to find a more fun atmosphere to eat an awesome pizza. You can be entertained just by looking at all the things on the walls while you wait on your food!
All the workers were very friendly as well.
A slice of pizza is about $4, but it's really about the size of 3 "normal" slices.
I'd definately reccommend this place if you love pizza like I do.
Hidden and tucked away off of Highway 80 heading on/off of Tybee Island, this fun pizza joint is a local hang out! I went with some friends after the beach for lunch, and it was the perfect day to sit outside on the patio, enjoy the fresh air from the fans that keep all the bugs away, and enjoy a pizza pie. We got the breadsticks which were surprisingly good - covered in cheese and the marinara sauce was AWESOME. I wish they'd give two marinara sauces its so good. We ordered a good ole' Pepperoni pizza which came out sizzling hot! Between three of us, we devoured the whole thing! My friends explained that on weekends and at night this place usually has a solid wait so there are games (cornhole, etc.) that guests can play out on the patio. The patio is also christened with a "Tybee Idol" painted on the wall which I'm sure is for something good. The wait staff were pleasant and kept us filled up on beverages. One waiter in particular (he may have been the manager or owner) was up beat, talkative and keeping up the fun with all of the surrounding tables. Don't head off of Tybee without stopping at Huc A Poos for a slice of pizza and fun!
Review Source:Diviest of dive bars.
Excellent, huge, fairly-priced pizza. Popsie's, with sausage, mushrooms, jalapeños & black olives was incredible.
Staff inside was friendly and attentive, but server on deck was insane...like, seriously. One of those old-timers who's waited table for 25+ years & hates your guts if you're not at her station, and only tolerates you if she's getting a tip. We stopped by (our first visit here) to order 2 pizzas to go, but when we tried to ask the server how to do this, she gave my husband serious crazy eyes and turned on her heel. Ummmm...WTF? Server inside was friendly & professional, taking order and telling us it was fine to wait the 20 mins on the deck. Crazy Eyes approached us to take our order, but as soon as I started to say that we'd order pizzas to go, she turned on her heel again without a word, before I'd even finished speaking.
I expect that the rest of the staff is as nice as the server inside that helped us, but we'd never sit on the deck if Crazy Eyes was working. Lunatic.
We ordered pizzas from Huc a Poos for a Tybee Island Wedding Rehearsal dinner. I was the lucky guy who got to have all the delicious smelling pizzas in his car :)
The huge order was made plenty of time before it was needed and they executed everything perfectly. All the pizzas were ready waiting for me when I got there. Before I knew there was a guy helping me carry half of them to my car. It was a glorious smell. The pizza was delicious too.
The atmosphere of the place was so laid back I wanted to stay and have a beer but I had a duty to deliver these pizzas to the rehearsal dinner.
The pizza was great! Unfortunately, it was the *only* good thing about this restaurant.
The restaurant isn't air-conditioned and, instead, uses huge, industrial-size, floor/stand fans - set on the highest setting - indoors. The fans make it miserable to sit at many of the tables.
The restaurant allows smoking indoors (didn't know that still existed!) and out, and it's very smoky despite the fans.
The atmosphere indoors is extremely loud. I couldn't hear the people at the table with me unless we yelled to each other, and we were in a small group.
I put that it's kid-friendly because of the food; but - if you prefer your kids not to hear lots of loud, foul language - don't take them here. Many highly intoxicated people at the bar, plus sports on the TVs, makes for curse words flying loudly through the restaurant every few minutes.
The service was good, especially considering how packed the restaurant was. Our waitress was nice and efficient, but she seemed very stressed.
Also, if it's raining, the unsaved parking lot turns into a mud pool.
Everyone in our group said they'd never go back here again or recommend it to anyone visiting. It would be good for take-out, but don't subject yourself to its "atmosphere."
I hate to click on five stars because this is the kind of bar that should just remain a word-of-mouth, local secret. But I ain't gonna lie, Huc a Poos is a great little hangout hidden among a bunch of roadside, souvenir shops away from the beach. I stopped by twice while vacationing on the island, once for just a quick drink and once to enjoy their famous pizza with the fam.
Let's start with the pizza. For only $4.00, you get 1/4 of any pie of your choosing, with as little or as many toppings as you want. You definitely don't find that deal every day. I decided to try "The Federale," one of their specialty pizzas with grilled chicken, tomatoes, onions, peppers and jalapenos. Wow, did that hit the spot! Of course, they also have plenty of inexpensive beer and soda options for your preferred liquid refreshment.
Secondly, the service was awesome. The gentlemen that configured our large table gathering in the corner was so cool and personable, throwing out suggestions, compliments and funny jabs to our whole table the entire time. Everyone loved him, which is the best compliment you can get as a server.
On top of all that, throw in a unique and eclectic decor of license plates, old signage and graffiti-written dollar bills all over the walls and ceiling, and Huc a Poos is a place I could relax in any (or every) day of the week if I lived here. Two thumbs up, but you didn't hear it from me.
Pretty good. We were lucky to have someone ask if we wanted their table right when we arrived. Later we watched how others fought over others and their was no line so whoever was fastest seemed to win. We got the nacho's which were huge and very tasty. The kids loved them. Then we got two pizzas a regular and the cheeseburger one with mustard. Wow the pickles on it are out of this world and the flavors blended so well together. I am glad we stopped here on our visit to tybee island.
Review Source:I recommended Huc-A-Poos to some good friends of mine. They were looking forward to a great family outing taking their two toddlers there for pizza after a trip to Oatland Island. They arrived about 3pm on a slow Friday (3/5/13). Many empty tables, but some people there. They walked out. The reason is no one addressed them, and when they tried to seat themselves, they were told "you can't sit there". They moved to another area. Again, "you can't sit there". No one told them where to sit, or acted if they were welcome. They stood and waited, and waited. Again, no staff seemed interested in this family being there, so, they left disappointed.
I personally am embarrased at the lack of customer service having recommended. Moreover, they felt as if it could be racial as they were the only black family there. For this, I believe the place needs to say otherwise and apologize, or gain a reputation of intolerance. I will never set foot there again, and will let people know the impression I have, and this wonderful family has of the establishment.
Oh the Poo, you are the best. Here's what you get: an outdoor deck, loud music, funny & nice bartenders, happy locals, a pretty damn clean bathroom for a dive bar, very good pizza and TVs to watch the game. You can easily walk here from most places on the North side of the island, and if you're too drunk & lazy, there's always the golf cart shuttle racket. There is a seriously nice vibe here - most patrons are locals, especially in the off season, and so there is a definite "we're all friends here" atmosphere. Get a pitcher, get a slice (they're huge!) and just soak it in.
Review Source:When we first tried this place last year, we were skeptical, but everyone told us it was the best pizza on the beach. Â And when we got our two pizzas that were as big as truck tires, we believed. Â Went back again this year and still just as great. Â Fun, dive-bar type place where everyone knows everyone else, including you when you walk in. Â We had pizza and the chicken quesadilla this time, and both were fantastic. Â Want to just kick back, watch some sports, eat pizza, and drink beer? Â Can't do much better than this.
Review Source:I'm no stranger to the bar scene. Â Many moons ago I was a skeevy bartender of the Tom Cruise-in-'Cocktail'-variety, juggling bottles to the astonishment of stupid/drunk people. Â I've been in them ALL, from the most 'civilized' of British pubs to the filthiest whiskey joints in the Louisiana bayou, so believe me when I tell you that I know a little about what makes a great bar. Â
I will be very hard pressed if I ever locate another bar in the world that comes close to matching Huc a Poos on the awesome meter! Â I want to move to Tybee Island just to be near this place!...and to hell with sounding like an alcoholic! Â This place is friendly, cheap and nostalgic all wrapped into one. Â The Holy Grail of Dive Bars! Â
I can't wait to go back! Â Thanks for the amazing hospitality!
Do not go any place else on Tybee Island!
This is the place. Â Laid back, fun and friendly (with just a hint of skeevy-ness), this was one of the most fun and tasty places we went during our trip to Savannah.
We were out at the Light Station and ran into some locals who were taking wedding photos. My gregarious friends got to chatting with them and they said "Before you go, you should stop by Huc a Poos for a slice". Â Being hungry and adventurous, we decided to find this place and we were so glad we did.
The place is kind of crazy looking with couches inside and tables here and there on the deck, but the service was fast and friendly and the prices were re-donk-u-lous! Â They had a great beer variety and everything was cheap. Â A slice is actually a quarter of a huge pizza and it's something like $4. Â My three friends and I each ordered a slice (I had the carnivore...yum!) Â and they brought out this huge honkin' pie and we were like "That can't be for us". Â But it was!
So we stuffed our faces and enjoyed the atmosphere and as we're finishing up, who walks in but the family from the wedding photos. Â They were happy to see we went and had such a nice time.
The only thing that keeps this from getting five stars is that it smoking is allowed everywhere and it seemed like everyone was lighting up.
However, that wasn't a enough to spoil a great visit. Â Hop on down to Huc a poos if you're in Savannah or Tybee Island. Â You won't regret it!
Just found this place on our last trip to Savannah. Wish I had found it sooner!! Prices are great. Staff is awesome. Pizza is one of the best I have had and great price for all you get. We ordered a large and took most of it with us (we are camping) and ate it several days later reheated ,tasted nearly as good the day we got it.
Only found this place b/c we finally decided to stop and look at the crazy flea market place next door- there is always something crazy hanging outside. Huc a poos is in the back so you can't see it from the street.
Kind of a quirky place- great place to hang out- met lots of good people.
Huc a poo's is the definition of a beach dive bar and is a great place to drink and grab a slice. The pizza is mediocre, but you do get a lot for your money. The drinks are reasonable and the staff fits the place perfectly.
This place is more geared towards an adult crowd, there is smoking and there are also not tables to accommodate large groups (7 or more). Best advice with smaller kids is place a take-out order and arrive early to have a drink while you wait.
Huc a poo's could easily be four or five stars to the bar crowd, but as a restaurant, the food is just average. Â Definitely worth checking out, but not going out of your way for.
Oh man! We found this place on Yelp and I'm SO glad we went. After a long drive, it was so perfect to find one of these trashy beach places. I used to work in a similar dive in Fort Myers, so I really appreciate the kind of bartenders and clientele here.
I never asked for our bartender's name, but she was older, skinny, and had long stringy blondish hair and probably has a tattoo of a devil on her ass. She f*cking rules. They all did.
The food was cheap and good and the beer was cheap and cold and we had a great time. Devil Butt even gave us a free shot of Kermit Kum that she said she invented.
Oh yeah! And you can smoke INSIDE! I don't smoke, but my partner does, and coming from a place with a recent smoking ban, we got a kick out of watching the cigarette smoke casually waft into the kitchen and reminiscing about the days when the "smoking section" was a three foot glass wall in the middle of the restaurant. Rock on Huc a Poos!
After a day at the beach on Tybee Island, one of my roommates suggested Huc A Poo's for a slice of pizza. I'm not from around here so I agreed to try this place out. Heads up, the restaurant is a bit hard to find without a GPS. I immediately loved the vibe of the place. The ceiling is covered with various record albums and the walls are covered with interesting signs, photographs, memorabilia, etc. The menu offers a selection of specialty pizzas (by the slice or whole pie), salads, wraps, apps, and build-your-own pizza options.
Roommate and I decided to share a house salad (4$) and we each got our own slice of pizza. I chose the popsie pizza which had shrooms, sausage, jalapenos, and black olives. The salad was delicious--came with a vidalia onion dressing that went perfectly with the veggies. The pizza slice was HUGE! about 1/4 of a pizza for 4$. Well worth the money. The sauce was perfect. Not too watery or thinned down. And the crust was thin and crispy. Mm mm mm. Huc a Poos is definitely a locals hangout and not a tourist trap. Dogs are also welcome inside!
This place has amazing pizza. I'm sure everything else is good too, but I've only ever had the pizza. The first time I ate here I ended up leaving a scathing review because of the service. Now I've come to realize that this place just embodies life on Tybee Island - slow, Southern style. It smacks you in the face when visiting from a big city where you are used to getting everything within 2 minutes of ordering it, but it's worth getting used to. Hucapoo's is awesome for enjoying drinks and pizzs with friends, as long as you're not in a hurry. But if you ARE in a hurry, you really shouldn't be on the island anyway. That's what cities are for!
Review Source:I've spent more nights in Huc-a-Poos than I can possibly try to count. I lived on Tybee for a year while in college, and the family of folks who worked at and visited Huc-a-Poos became my home away from home. It's definitely the best pizza place on the island and by far the best bar, but that's not why Huc-a-Poos is great. It's a family-owned business that makes its customers feel like a part of the family. Eric and Shep have welcomed their patrons on holidays, in the dead of a lonely Tybee winter, and in the ashes of what remained after the original Huc-a-Poos burned to the ground a few years back. It's rare to see a business so focused on happy customers, and that's why Huc-a-Poos makes people feel good. Well -- that, the gigantic slices of pizza, and the generously-poured drinks.
While I don't get to come back to Tybee as often as I'd like, Huc-a-Poos is always the first and last place I visit when I do.
Hubs and I spend a fair amount of time on Tybee Island and thus, have eaten at all of the restaurants in the area many times. Â When Hucapoo's opened, we were excited to try it. Â I first went there a few months ago with my mom, and my 2 teenagers and had a 'less-than-stellar' experience (slow service and cold, burnt food). Â
Hubs wanted to give it another shot this past weekend and it was AWESOME! Â The music was loud, the crowd was fun and eclectic (hey, it's Tybee Island, not Hilton Head, people!), the beer was cold and the pizza was some of the best I've ever had. Â We sat outside and enjoyed the 'local flavor' , drank a couple of Red Stripes, ate some cheese bread (really simple, fresh, and really REALLy good), and 2 slices of pizza (the slices are HUGE... 1 slice is close to 1/2 a pizza)... And the bill was $18. Â Seriously. Â I thought it was a typo. Â
Can't wait to go back!
I have never been in here sober so it is hard to write a proper review. Sure, I go in there wanting to make a thoughtful and witty review about how good their pizza is and it is quite amazing but after 3 hours in to the Georgia game, all I can remember is which direction I live, thanks to the helpful bar staff.
Huc A Poos is serious about their beer selection and I am serious about keeping an open tab. My ironic pizza of choice is their honkey pizza. I add chicken and extra spinach and I am one happy, beer guzzling islander. Leave a dollar on the wall, a bra in the rafters and your waitress a hefty tip.
You'll love this little pizza joint almost as much as I do...almost.
Callin' all rednecks, longnecks, bottlenecks, wannabee ruff riders, pigskin patriots, shanty town yokels and all other sorts of country folk, Huc a Poos is a shack on stilts that houses the most authentic dive bar ambiance. There's dollar bills stapled to the wood that holds the place together, a few screens showing the current football game, a bevy of locals (pretty boy half-locals too) downing Miler Lites.
As two girls walking into the boisterous bar, we felt a little outta place, but overall, this full-of-character establishment seems like a refuge for beefcakes and their loud, beer drinking ladies.
Pizza 4 stars. Â Price 5 stars. Â Beer selection 5 stars. Â Cool vibe 8 stars!
Decorated in album covers and license plates (if that is a turn off maybe you shouldn't be on TYB) Huc a Poos is the quintessential beach pizza place. Â Â The pizza is good to very good and the price is great. Â HUGE slices let you get some variety so that everyone is happy with their selection. Â The bar has locals, tourists, and servers working their ass off and usually all having a good time. Â Music is great. Â Sports always on TV's and fun place to watch a DAWG or Falcons game. Â Â My recommendation is don't order ahead. Â Go, sit at the bar, have a beer and maybe another then order your pizza to go. Â IF you are staying at TYB for more than a day or two, you will be back to do the same drill again before your trip is over.
The place looks fun on the outside. Â When you walk inside you may think ut-oh... but sit down; the pizza is great and the service super friendly. Â With Beer and soda's a family of 6 can have a great meal for under 50. This is the way Tybee living is suppose to be.
also a local's favorite.
I cant begin to express how happy we were walking into this place. This is how places should be run, but it never works. I dont know how theyve made it work here, but its a wonderful thing to behold! The service is so friendly, warm, and ive never had my drinks refilled faster. And why? Because they care, and treat their customers like family. Dude wasnt out for a tip when he raced to refill our sprites over, and over again. "its so hot out, dont want these bad boys to run dry!"...he actually cared about our comfort while we were there. The pizza is huuuuge. One slice is more than a human should eat in one sitting. I dont see how a whole pie could even fit on the table. Size isnt eveything, right? Well the flavor and quality ingrediants stood their ground as well. The crust is perfect, the cheese is smothering, the toppings are fresh.
We were only here for lunch, and i want to drive all the way back just to spend all nt getting hammered there. Its that kind of place.
Ill go ahead and mention the decor now, since im sure its what most people remember right off. You could spend every day in there and not see every trinket, LP, signed picture, or 1/2 working odds and ends lamps.
So you like hippie places, huh? Well when was the last time you felt really welcome in one and not just smuggly eyed because your dreads werent as genuine as his, or your armpit hair wasnt as long as hers? There is ZERO pretention at huc a poo's. I cant wait to go back.
I can only imagine the generally high pizza reviews for this place are from people who do not know what real pizza is or Tybee has really bad pizza. Â Being from the NE and having had NJ/NY pizza more times than I can count, I can say that this stuff is completely average.
That being said it gets a major big up for offering made to order slices. Â Meaning you can get any of their toppings on a slice. Â Normally slices come in cheese, sausage, pep, veggie or whatever standard whole pies are made. Â But Hucapoos will make you an anchovi, artichoke, shrimp and feta slice if thats what you want.
Where hucapoos really shines is as a bar. Â I honestly can't pinpoint any specific reason for this. Â The service is good but not great, the drinks are not weak but wouldn't been known for their kick, the prices are average. Â
But for whatever reason this is just a really really cool place to hang out and feed your liver. Â It's easily the best bar in Tybee.
If I could give this place 10 stars I would. We went out to Tybee to "see the sights" but after stopping here we decided that Huc a Poos was the only sight we wanted to see. What a great, laid back bar and restaurant for regular folks. No attitudes, just everyday people...and all types of people. The restaurant/bar area is filled with random paraphernalia: album cover, tin car airplanes, random signs, machine guns, easy chair recliners. You name it. In fact, when we were there, interested parties were trying to figure out where to place ceramic Three Stooges heads. All this and the food was surprisingly great. A great salad (that I plan on trying to copy) and a perfect crust pizza.
