I’m not sure what’s been happening with Bay Local I want to love it, but something about the atmosphere is tanking. Why is the music so loud!? And why is the staff basically offended when you ask if the volume can be lowered? I’d love to be able to talk to the party I’m with, without yelling.

The food is good. Service is fine. The music playing was extremely loud and when asked if it could be turned down we were told "they don't really like to mess with that".

Got here at opening and met the most charming, loveable crew of all time. This location is particularly closer to my residence, having visited the other (Oceana) location, I just had to see. It was early so I started with Mimosas mixed Pineapple and oranges are freshly squeezed makes all the difference, and the dishes...delectable. My primary bar attendant and hostess was "literally" Wonder Women's doppelganger and the others were an absolute delight. Can hardly wait to wake up early and do it all again. Beautifull Brunch??

First time visiting the Shore Drive location. They don't have many parking spaces so plan to walk. Very loud inside place was full so that maybe why. Looks like a place for the younger crowd. The service was great. I got the calamari plenty of it and tasty then I got the Bay Reuben it was a good size but to me it lacked flavor and the bottom side of the sandwich was soggy. My choice of the side was the seasoned French fries and they were tasty and plentiful. Not sure if I will go back or not if I do I'll definitely be getting something else.

The nachos/totchos, bloody Mary’s, pancakes, and breakfast burrito were soooo good. Mimosas were good too (they were mostly champagne, didn’t taste any juice, but I’m not complaining lol)Service was decent for how busy it was.The decor and music were so cute. Thanks for the great brunch!Gratuity is an automatic 18% but the service was good so I don’t mind paying it.

Wanted to try a new place so we went here. Food was good. Customer service was excellent. Multiple members of staff came and checked on us. That was very much appreciated. I will definitely be going back to try some other items on the menu. Had the crab balls. They were amazing. Also had an shrimp omelette, home potatoes, crab cake benny with tots

Don’t waste your time. Complete confusion, food is not freshly made, too loud and I’m pretty sure they just dump salt on everything. Only thing that tastes good is the toast and that didn’t have to be made. Drinks were even awful. Spend $70 for two and left hungry. Waffle House is a better experience.

Way too loud,way too crowded,waited too long for my tiny mimosa.I specifically asked for no tomatoes & still served tomatoes.I was also unpleasantly surprised that they automatically added 18% gratuity to our table of 2.Will not be back.

Came for my 1st time today ! & wow ?? I had shrimp and grits and side of scrambled eggs with cheese. I did ask for NO BACON, however the waiter forgot, and also forgot my side of eggs. Lol so I did have to get the plate done over, and he sincerely apologized and made up for it the rest of the time. The lemon drop martinis were good and strong. I also had a mango mimosa that was decent. I'd come back again . Oh and parking was a whole mission. I waited 30 minutes to get a parking spot ?? the vibes were pretty good too. 10/10

I ordered an avocado toast but barely have any avocado on it, my suggestion is at least need to have half an avocado for 14.99..as avocado is the main ingredient and the name of the toast. I had avocado toast on many restaurants and they a lot more of it. Besides that I enjoy the coffee, atmosphere and service . As pic expected. Thank you
