What a fun place! I made a quick stop and had the street corn fries and a few rum and cokes! The staff was awesome and John the bartender was great. I wish I could have stayed for the live music but had some running around to do. Definitely will be back with friends. I loved the feel of a fun back yard without the maintenance.

Great food. Great beers. But more importantly, GREAT employees. Stopped in for lunch today for the first time and sat at the bar with my husband. Had the pleasure of being waited on by Jordan and Cody - super sweet and made some terrific recommendations (nachos, brussel sprout salad and Sway beer, I'm talkin' 'bout you!) Food, atmosphere and wonderful service notwithstanding, here's where they REALLY stood out: An individual had a medical emergency while we were there and the staff were quick to react. Providing assistance while also maintaining the dignity and privacy of this person, they also went the distance to continue service to customers and trying keep "business as usual" to patrons (once they knew the person was being tended to); it's tough when something like this happens and they did a great job deflecting attention. It was very, very nice to see...recognizing these are servers, bartenders and other staff that aren't trained for this kind of thing. Oh, and to the table of patrons who demanded 50% off their bill because they had to "witness the event": I pray this doesn't happen to you or someone you care about, and I hope you get the day you deserve. Well done on all accounts, Crooked Hammock!

After about 8 years, we made our way back and had such a wonderful experience! Kids in tow and all. The playground was such a hit! The food was so much better than my first time around. The chicken, bacon, ranch sandwich was *so* darn yummy. Everything was brought out in a timely manner and it was still hot. We came back for lunch today and it was definitely quieter than the dinner crowd (no complaining here!) The whole family agreed, we had such a great time. We'll be back for sure!

WOWWWW - love this spot so much and cannot wait to come back (this place will not be a staple in our family vacation ). I stumbled upon this going through places on Yelp looking for something new. It was about 20 minutes from Rehobeth where we were staying. Tons of parking and sorta tucked away from the madness. The place itself is awesome! There are two bars here, tons of indoor/outdoor seating, and a little spot to grab a few souvenirs. The hostesses were super friendly and sat us outside upon request. Our server Dakota was awesome! He was knowledgeable of the menu and gave great recommendations. He was super attentive during our visit here. The staff overall worked together as a team. I did the beer flight with 4 of their sours and they were delicious! Staycation was my personal favorite. My husband enjoyed a few of their beers. We started with the smashed avocado dip and pineapple wings. The dip was so light and flavorful. The wings had excellent flavor and were different than other wings we've had. The old bay crab dip was delish and the old bay pretzels were a great vessel. My kids got the chicken and mac n cheese as well as the hot wings. It was a nice portion for both. I thought their prices were fair given the portions. There's quite a few fun activities to enjoy while here (both young and old). I highly recommend making a pitstop here.

Beautiful day to have a late lunch outdoors. So where do you go, why the Crooked Hammock of course. They have a weekly lunch special. Had the "members only" (free when you join their reward program) special fries that come with a French onion dip. It was very tasty! I ordered the Caesar salad with crispy chicken and it did not disappoint. The dressing was delicious as was the shredded Parmesan cheese with pretzel roll croutons. The crispy chicken was so good, cooked perfectly and great seasoning. would definitely try a sandwich with that on it. The portion size, talking regular menu order was plenty for this hearty eater with leftovers to take home. We sat out on the deck and it was great! We forgot that we could have brought the fur babies with us-many others there quietly laying under the tables. I really liked this location as they have another up North. Fun relaxing place. And our server was excellent. We'll be back soon -with the Gurlz!

Crooked Hammock is always a great time. I think they best think about this place is the beer. They brew delicious beer and there are tons of options. I'm a big fan of the sours and they have 4 different ones to choose from which is kind of rare! I recommend getting a flight so you can try a bunch of brews. They also have delicious cocktails. And don't forget to get some beer to go! The food is pretty good too! They have some good appetizers, sandwiches and entrees. I really like the pineapple wings, the nachos and they also have good salads and lots of variety. They have attentive servers and the food comes out pretty quick. This place is also great for groups and families... and it's dog friendly. They have outdoor seating and lots of space. They even have a playground in the back as well as corn hole and other games. Crooked Hammock also has live music out on the stage. This place is an experience! Sometimes it can get really loud, crowded and chaotic... also there can be a long wait in the summer and especially on weekends. We just went with friends who have kids... and Unfortunately there's no changing table in the men's room. Hopefully they will consider putting one in. All in all this is a place I will keep coming back to!
