Very very very nice place to spend a summer afternoon!

Not a pier but actually a boat. The shaking makes you feel more drunk than you actually are.

Do NOT order food here, they lose power regularly and you're not guaranteed to get the food you ordered from the bar when you show up at the kitchen...! I left hotdog-less even though I paid for one.
StaceyJune 17, 2010
So divey. Perhaps TOO divey. But it's on a boat who can resist that? That's right; no one.

Pretty much your average burger, salads are TINY! Don't come if you get seasick easily!
Tom AbrahamOctober 20, 2012
Avoid the Freaktoberfest beer. Aptly named red beer that tastes like its from hell
Derek SJune 14, 2010
Watch out for the human centipedes on the lower deck...

Why don't they have spoons? Stupid questions = the usual crummy service.

If you are bored, throw a drunk frat boy off the boat.
