What customers say?

“ Excellent Food, Excellent Vibes! I have been wanting to visit Ponysaurus for a while now locally in Raleigh where I am from and found myself recently in the Wilmington area on a business trip and found this location while I was looking for somewhere to go for dinner so I decided to stop in. Man, was I impressed! The burger I had was seriously hands down one of the best burgers I’ve ever had! The staff was super friendly and very relaxing to talk to, made you feel like you were hanging out at a familiar place. I could definitely see myself stopping in regularly if I was local! Do yourself a favor and go check it out if you are in the area, you won’t regret it! ”

“ We come to trivia almost every Monday and we thought we’d share about our waitress we’ve had our last few times we’ve came. Shayleigh, she is extremely professional and handles all us loud (sorry!!) customers so well and always has a joke or 2 to crack. My friend needed help figuring out what beer to get and she was able to recommend her what is now her new favorite beer. And she never gets frustrated with our amount of questions we have regarding food. She is so much fun and makes us want to keep returning every Monday to see her. 5 stars all around. ”

“ This is an awesome brewery with so much to offer! They serve excellent beers along with a variety of other drinks, making it a place anyone can enjoy. A big bonus is their great food and the menu has plenty of tasty options to choose from. There’s ample seating both indoors and outdoors, and the atmosphere is always warm and inviting. Service was excellent, making the whole experience even better. ”

“ I really like what Ponysaurus has done with this space. It's a fun place to hang out in any season with 4 different seating areas that break it up and make it feel really spacious: front porch, hidden beer garden (dogs allowed in outdoor space), indoor bar area, and indoor upstairs. They put a lot of thought and effort into decor, especially around the holidays with lots of lights! There are a number of solid beers to pick from, but even better are the frozen cocktails and mocktails (especially on a hot summer day on the patio)! There is almost certainly a beverage for everyone here. They offer a variety of decent bar food options and snacks (the buffalo wings with ranch are great), but you have to order those using a weird QR code (some of which don't work, but you can't order food from the bartender) either below your barstool or on your table. The only service with the food is that someone will bring it to your table; there is no designated wait staff, which can be awkward if you need something. Overall, this is a fun place to bring the whole family or friends and I highly recommend for the vibes alone! ”

“ This was fantastic! We were looking for a place that included gluten-free options, because my fiancé is gluten-sensitive, and the pizza didn't disappoint. She loved it. I had a pizza with regular crust, and it was just as good! We will absolutely go back here again! ”

“ First time checking this place out! Long overdue!!!! This place rocks and the bartender daytime bartender is VERY easy on the eyes! Thanks for the great service to Piper and crew. Will definitely be coming back soon ”

“ We decided to eat here after a trip to the Children’s Museum, we were walking by and thought, “why not?” And wow, we were not disappointed. We didn’t know what to expect but were quickly blown away. I don’t usually like ordering online at the table, but in this instance it worked to our favor because we had three very hungry kids and food came out very fast once we submitted our order. I ordered a GF pizza for myself and my husband along with a regular pepperoni pizza for the kids, some Thai chili chicken wings, and a GF burger with pimento cheese. First, this is one of the best GF pizzas we’ve had in Wilmington (second only to Benny’s) even my husband, who doesn’t have to eat GF, just does in solidarity, agreed it was phenomenal. Everyone was happy with the chicken wings and we loved the burger as well. Everything was a little pricey bc we had to pay extra for the GF items, but honestly I have to say it was worth the price. Overall we are extremely happy with the food and next time we want to eat outside, we didn’t even know they had a huge outdoor patio space! We can’t wait to go back. ”

“ This place was an entire vibe! QR codes on tables to scan for menu and to order they bring it out and the rest is help yourself to plates napkins condiments etc! The bar is full service and has a fantastic selection! The outside seating is my favorite it’s kid friendly and pet friendly also has a fire place and heaters to keep warm in the cooler season! Inside has an entire upstairs for entertaining! Pizza was delicious beer was good and we will be back soon! ”
