Bad Habits

I am rating this based on what it is—a beach themed bar and restaurant with a local, neighborhood appeal. The place reminds me of old school bars that used to line Atlantic Avenue in Va. Beach and the ‘Beach Road’ on the OBX. Lots of OBX decor, mounted game fish, surfer themes. You can tell regulars know each other. Staff is friendly. Full bar. Food is very good, a step above most small bar offerings. Families come in for dinner. The oysters are a major plus—raw, steamed, fried, Chesapeake Bay sourced and huge. Fried shrimp has excellent breading and are jumbo sized. Salads are fresh and generous. My wife had a Cuban and it was also excellent. This will be a definite stop lunch and dinner and if I want a beer. As a beach kid growing up and an oyster fanatic, this was a find! And only 1.

This would definitely be my little neighborhood bar if I lived closer. Just stopped in for the first time for lunch and everything was perfect. Loved the atmosphere, decor, and music. You could tell that many of the other customers were regulars. The staff was friendly and offered great service. And the food was great! We'll definitely be trying more of their seafood next time. Today I had the Poboy with fried oysters and the hush puppies, and my partner had the Cubano and fries. The fries could have been a Lil crispier, but were still tasty. He said the Cuban was one of the best he's had in the area, and the addition of bacon on it was great. My sandwich was great, I loved the red pepper aioli on it! And the hush puppies were so good too 😋 We will definitely be back when we're in t

​"Grabbed some takeout from here with a couple of friends the other night and it was exactly what we needed. We ordered a few rounds of wings and they were honestly great—crispy, good size, and the sauce was on point. We checked out the rest of the menu while we were waiting and they seem to have a good variety of stuff. Definitely a solid spot if you're in the plaza and looking for good food. We'll be back to try more of the menu next time."

This is an establishment where the locals frequent. Everyone knew everyone, with it being my first time here the regulars made me feel at home. The staff was awesome and attentive. I ordered the Wasabi Teriyaki wings there were on point some of the best wings in the 757. The shrimp was good as well and the drinks here are 🔥. I high recommend this spot if you want relax and enjoya good meal, drinks, etc. If I'm ever back in the area I'm definitely coming back!!! Thank you Bad Habits!!!

Been several times and food has always been good and service is also good. When we went they had a full house with 2 servers and I felt like we still got good service. Food is always good. Mile high is awesome and my favorite. Crab cakes are great get them grilled with tartar sauce. French fries are nice too. Happy hour 11-7 everyday. Good selection of drinks and cocktails. They have crushes! Overall a great local spot without the tourists! Love Chesapeake!
