Excellent food and service. The waitress worked her butt off, place was packed and we received our meal quickly. The New England clam chowder was one of the best I have ever had.

Chris the bartender is amazing so polite so fun to be around makes you feel at home. The wings were so tasty. the steamed local oysters were so delicious and the beer was cold and refreshing. Also had 2 shots of screwball whiskey. Very tasty. Didn't paid alot of money for what we got. Please go here if you are ever in Hampstead nc. We will be back. We live right down the road from here.

My first trip to Jebby's in Hampstead was very early in the wake of Hurricane Florence. I was up from Texas helping a team of retired electrical lineman who were working as assessors to the substantially damaged electrical distribution system. In short, power was out over much of NC. Jebby's was one of the few places open right after the hurricane passed over and we stopped in with two other teams for lunch. The place was busy with locals, but Chris and the limited available staff were going out of their way to take care of everyone there. Kudos for the extra effort during a stressful and bumpy stretch. I can't say enough good things about Jebby's. The food is delicious, fresh, hot and if you leave hungry, it's your own fault. On my first visit, Chris mentioned a reuben with hand battered onion rings. Since that's one of my favorite hot sandwiches, I jumped on it. It was nothing short of fantastic. The next day we were within a few miles of Jebby's around lunchtime, so back we go. This round, I tried the oyster basket. I've eaten a lot of oysters at a lot of places and these were top of the mark, fried to perfection and served with a very excellent cocktail sauce and hot, crispy fries. It doesn't get any better. Next trip, I went with the ribeye, cooked medium rare in a cast iron skillet with asparagus and mashed potatoes. Ho-ly cow good. The steak was tender, flavorful and juicy. The asparagus was a perfect tender-crisp and I'm not sure what's the magic in those mashed potatoes, but I could have eaten them as a meal. Jebby's fresh ground burgers are something of a local legend. Although I didn't try one during my visits, several of our guys went back daily and raved about them. The prices are reasonable, the food is fantastic, the sweet tea is just right and the bar is well stocked. After you've been there a couple of times, they'll know you by name. Eat at Jebby's, even if you have to drive for awhile to get there. On a personal note, thanks to Chris and comp

Yummy food, fun atmosphere, very quick. You can be in and out if you beat the 5 pm rush. Took us 30 min as we arrived before most people came. We ordered the pot roast special and the fried chicken meal. Both had great flavor. I would love to have had the option of a salad with the entree. But you don't get that. Or a roll or sometime to dip in the sauce. It was a simple meal, needed something more to make it a longer experience. Still a simple relaxed, bar/dining place to hang out, have some drinks and watch a game or two.

Down in NC visiting family and they recommended Jebbys. Ordered the Old bay wings to start and they were as good as any spot in Maryland. For dinner, I got the gumbo and it was phenomenal. My wife loved the pot pie. The southern chicken and the pork chop were both also awesome. Love the family style vibe. Homemade dessert to finish - can't beat it. If I lived here, this would be my go to. Best meal I've had in NC.

I took my wife here today after having a bad experience at Hardee's in Hampstead. What a great surprise. We really enjoyed ourselves. It was a little expensive but a great atmosphere and the drinks and general ambiance was phenomenal. Short wait time.
