Dadz Bar & Grill

Met some friends there on a weekday at 1:00 for lunch. It was empty! Our food was definitely above average. Although my order was quite simple, a cheeseburger and fries, it was really good. Excellent (large) cheeseburger and great fries too! We will def come back!

Went there with some friends on a Saturday. Was not crowded, got seated right away and then we waited. Took about 30 minutes to get our first round of drinks which was weird since we were stilling next to the empty bar. About another 45 minutes for appetizers, and probably about another 45 for the food. Maybe another 20 – 25 minutes to get out bill. All in total, over 2.5 hours spent there mainly because of waiting on service. The Wings were pretty good and the rest of the food was ok. Nothing to write home about but not a detractor in the least. The service will prevent me from ever returning.

Been going here for years! My favorite wings by far in the area. Hot and Honey! Great craft beer selection and friendly bartenders. Never had a meal or snack I did not like.

What a wonderful place to hang out, grab a few beers and get casual dinner! We got the boneless wings and they were honestly the best we have had in a long time. The outside seating was very nice too. The waitress was good and we had a nice time there. We will be back. I had the tuna steak salad and it was off the charts!

Love the wings here — they also have buffalo style dishes like BC tacos, wraps and salads. Excellent selection of draft beers and really good onion soup. Place gets pretty crowded late night so come early for dinner; numerous screens make for nice sports Sunday as well

Late review — we were there on the night of July 31, 2015
Came here with my wife and In-​laws on a Friday night. Never been to Dadz Bar & Grill before, but my In-​laws had been a few times, they liked the place, and I trusted their opinion (even though I had read several negative reviews from fellow Unilocalers).
We shared two orders of the fresh mozzarella sticks to start off with — everyone at the table agreed that they were very fresh and tasty, an excellent appetizer.
My father-​in-​law recommended a half rack of ribs, so we both ordered that. My wife went with six BBQ flavor jumbo wings, and my mother-​in-​law ordered a buffalo chicken flatbread pizza.
Everyone was happy with their meals, ribs were tender, almost «fall-​off-​the-​bone» quality. Sauce on mine had good flavor. My wife liked her wings (meaty with a crispy outer coating, seemed to be a homemade sauce), and the flatbread pizza was very tasty (my mother-​in-​law shared it with me, I liked it a lot).
Service was good also, I would certainly come back to Dadz Bar & Grill in Lumberton again when we are back in Jersey.

This dive/​sports bar is overrated, the security aren’t too friendly but then again the crowd it brings on the is probably why they are like that. A lot of fights and riff-​raff happens on the weekends. You’re not really greeted from the door your pretty much on your own, just «sit where you like» & «where’s the service?» from the beginning. The food is ok and the beer always tastes flat, I once had bottled beer when I dined in –there was rust around the mouth of the bottle (more than once, served there) returned it asked for a frosty mug and another beer they give me a PLASTIC one, I chuckled.
I actually like this bar for football season, they have the NFL Sunday Ticket even though the football fans can kinda be obnoxious and disrespectful to other patrons of opposing teams. 3 stars is what I give because they have potential and I use to like going there.

The only reason my friends picked this bar is for the drink specials — but don’t expect good food or good service here. The waitresses take forever to come to the table and they just plop the food down and leave. There were four of us and not one person was happy with their meals. My boyfriend ordered the wings and they were ice cold when he bit into them, so they’re definitely frozen. Everything is frozen from what I interpreted — I am a vegetarian and asked about several menu items if they could just omit the meat but they told me the items are already pre-​made with the meat. Someone I know also told me they found a fly in their food and when they told the server, she did not care or even apologize. To top it off, the place is loaded with extremely loud and obnoxious hillbillies which made my experience even worse. Will not return.

Ironically went here on Father’s Day for lunch. Ordered a plain burger and a pizza burger and an order of onion rings. Seemed easy for the kitchen to bang out. Both burgers came out overcooked; sent the pizza burger back. The plain burger had been smashed into a football shape with a spatula and had an odd aftertaste like stale black pepper. Onion rings were obviously dumped in fryer that was not up to temperature. Oil dripped out of them. Inedible.
If they couldn’t get this simple order right, it’s unlikely they could could get anything else correctly cooked. Good service was only bright spot of this meal.

WORST EXPERIENCE IVE EVER HAD AT A BAR OR RESTAURANT. The service was awful the entire night. I had to continue to get up to go find my bartender to ask for another drink after sitting there with an empty one for 15 minutes! I am a server, so I know very well about good and bad service. At the end of the night they practically kicked us out. But we wanted our tab split because my friend and I were both paying separately with cards. She split them wrong the first time. Fine, everyone makes mistakes. When I told her that they were split wrong (One of the drinks was on the wrong check), SHE ARGUED WITH ME! She told me, «No, hunny, you drank that drink.» Um, excuse me?!? I think I know what I drank that night! She was completely rude, rolling her eyes, cursing, completely unprofessional! I have never not tipped someone before last night. Absolutely terrible. Really deserves no stars.

The waitresses are brain dead, trifling, and just plain lazy. We waited 10 minutes to place an order, with only 4 tables in the place with people. Get some male staff who aren’t depending on tips by flirting like the nasty females there. We had to walk out. Plain silly.

Total shit… went out on a friday to the bar and this obese security gaurd was acting like a total dirt bag… horible service and almost all the beer on tap taste like ass!!!

Horrible service and bar, don’t waste your time or money!!! Smells like urine and cigarettes… Ugggghhhh!!!

Somewhat typical sports bar set up. The staff is just ok (neither super friendly nor super helpful, but never rude). The location is great and the facility — which keeps getting added on to — has great potential. The main issue is that the food is sub par and there have been times when we’ve waiting a long time to get our mediocre food. I’d like this place to be better. I live right down the road and it would make a great hang out. I try is again every year or so, and each time I walk away feeling underwhelmed. I’ll drive a fee minutes more and go to a place with better food, that comes out faster, brought by more smiley and helpful faces.

It’s a shame because this review would be much higher but for the awful service.
We went here for a late lunch. Football was on the TV and the place only had a few customers. Our waitress (Tori) had a really bad attitude about everything. Someone in our party made 2 polite, IMHO not unusual/​unrealistic requests– he wanted tomato sauce on a cheese steak and wanted 2 sides– onion rings and fries. You would have thought we ordered fried golden retriever! Her answer to everything was «no,» and then we’d have to cajole her into allowing us to pay extra for an extra side. She overall had a really bad, negative attitude.
The food arrived. She dumped it on the table and vanished, never to be seen. Four times we had to ask someone else to find her so we could get drink refills, napkins, and our check. She was surly and clearly put out by having to come back to the table.
The food was a mixed bag. The ribs, onion rings, and cheese steak were great. The turkey burger was dry and charred to a crisp. The salad was a cup of lettuce and not much else.
After waiting forever and getting someone else to find the waitress, we finally paid and left. I called immediately and asked to speak to the manager. I was polite and explained the bad attitude/​service. The manager told me she’d speak with the waitress, get «her side,» and if the waitress agreed– send us a gift card. I found that answer to be pretty outrageous… I am not sure how the waitress is supposed to have a «side» in something like this– I guess the manager didn’t believe me. She never called me back, at any rate.
Too bad because it’s close, the food was mostly good, and it’s a place to watch the game– but we won’t be back.

UPDATE– Wrote a letter to the manager just because I thought the whole thing was so outrageously mishandled. It’s been more than 2 weeks. No response. The owner really, really ought to be ashamed at running a «business» this way.

Absolutely the worst bartending service I’ve ever had in my 9 years of going to bars. Also the owner is very unprofessional, dancing and playing tambourine with the band instead of managing his failing bar. Awesome!

I really wanted to like this restaurant, as food at all other local restaurants are horrible. It was a cute setup inside and outside. Seemed like a fun locals place to be. I ordered wings, something easy and hard to screw up, as I am very reluctant to trying diff things. Now I don’t know what they feed their chickens, but these were oddly very large chicken legs which grossed me out to begin with, but whatever,… I paid for them now I’m gonna try them. However upon looking at these legs, I saw a feather still sticking out of the leg slathered with sauce on it. Almost gagged when I saw a man slurping these wings down a few tables away. NEVER EVER went back!!!

Looking from the street, you would think this was a nice bar, but its a little dive-​y, even w the new additions. As soon as you enter, you’re not greeted hello not even from security standing at the door and you have to navigate yourself to the dining area. Once we were seated, our waitress was very nice, attentive and prompt. We ordered the spare rib special that came w ff. The wait wasn’t too long. The ribs were good but didn’t taste like they were cooked in a smoker, maybe the oven then grilled for a nice char. But the homemade bbq sauce? Was phenomenal! Just sweet enough to carmelize on the rib, and so flavorful! I would say one of the best homemade bbq sauces I’ve had
I remember coming awhile back for their wing special and thinking it was good, so I’ll try that again sometime.
But good food and they seemed to have alot of drink specials

Service — so slow and bad. All of them have the attitude (bartenders/​bouncers).
Food — ok, there is better place
Never coming back there.

You know, if I’m going to go to a bar in random Jersey (because of its proximity to McGuire AFB), Dadz isn’t half bad. There’s generally always seating in the back area (even on a weekend), the bar is HUGE, the prices are silly cheap, and even the people in the dancing/​karaōke area seemed to be having a good time.
Yes, some people wear hunting clothes as regular clothes.
Yes, generally all the food is fried.
But as long as you’re there with good people, it’s fine.
