Lucy's Retired Surfers Bar & Restaurant

Please read carefully why I am giving them 5 stars. The food is average here but the staff is beyond exceptional. I came in here for my first time at around 5pm.  The bar staff Ray and a shorter blond greeted me immediately. Ray told his name and shook my hand. That night I only had drinks. I came back on a Saturday night at 1 am when they were extremely packed. Now it was a young party crowd but I was there for a last minute meal and drink. My server Maggie was exceptional and I mean exceptional. She was busy running around like a chicken with her head cutoff but she still gave great prompt service, attentiveness,  and actually gave time to discuss the food even though she was swamped. I sat by the servers station area and was amazed on how she was also cleaning while busting her butt. My only question was why the heck she wasn't working in a top notch restaurant. Kudos to Maggie I hope management reads Yelp reviews.

Young late night crowd... if thats not your thing

What a great place!  My 6 year old had fallen asleep as I drove around looking for a place to grab something quick.  I stumbled upon Lucy's and struck gold.  My son awoke as I placed him in the seat, and he was a little cranky and started to cry.  The guy behind the bar quickly grabbed a plastic shark and handed to my son and that made him stop crying instantly.  Tuesday night was $1.00 taco night and it was perfect as I brought back enough tacos for 8 people to sit and eat by the hotel pool.

When Lucy's is crowded/standing room only at the bar, it exhausts me.  When Lucy's is more mellow and I can get a seat at the bar, I love it!

I had the pleasure of hanging out at their bar on July 4th before rolling to a party.  Bartenders Chris and Jenna came on at 4pm for happy hour.  They were both super professional and so much fun!  They gave us chips and salsa to make sure we ate something, and Chris gave us extra toys for our drinks.  Thank you both for the attention you gave us and your awesome smiles!

Even when Lucy's is crowded and freaking me out, I know I can count on all of their bartenders to make sure that I soon have a drink in my hand.  And they do it with style!
