I’m a sucker for a pot of seafood and this pot did not disappoint!!! Based on experience with other establishments, Topsail Steamer offers the best quality and quantity in their pots. We had ample food to feed 4 adults and 4 kids. We got the Crabby Jimbo high tider and added sausage and extra potatoes and corn. The cornbread was to die for, just sweet enough and I can’t wait to get another meal from here! I highly recommended.

Got a bucket last night and it was so good! Being able to bring it home and watch the sunset was amazing. It came with everything we needed and the cornbread was the bomb! Definitely something you should get!

First time visiting and had several people suggest Topsail Steamer to us, so we had to try it. Sooooo glad we did! The staff helped us every step of the way with our order and instructions on how to cook the steam pot. This was super simple, very delicious 😋 and great for a fun family dinner!

If you are in the neighborhood and you do not try this place you are seriously missing out. The food is off the hook. I highly recommend it. 👌

We ordered a The Topsail Clam Bake (Low Tider), it serves 2-3 people. We had leftovers of mostly potatoes, a corn cob & some shrimp & kielbasa. It comes with 2 dozen littleneck clams, 1 lb. peel-and-eat shrimp, 1/2 lb. of kielbasa, corn, red potatoes, onion, homemade seafood seasoning, cocktail sauce, and butter. They also provide a small roll of brown paper for your table (liquid will seep through). $72.00+ tax which comes out to about $26/person if you have 3 people. Pricey (reason for 4 stars) considering you have to cook it, no table service & you have to clean up. But it was an experience we wanted to try. A little disappointed that, for that price, the cocktail sauce isn't homemade.
That being said, the seafood was VERY fresh! I picked it up around 2:00...cute shop. No one was in the front of the shop, so I waited about 5 minutes for someone. There's no bell to get an employee's attention & it's loud in the back, so they wouldn't here me. All the orders are in a small fridge by the register. The young man who helped me was very professional & let me know everything I needed to know about how to cook it. The bucket also comes with directions.
Hubs used a propane stove outside to do the cooking. The bucket lid has a hole in the top to let out steam. The instructions say to put the lid on while cooking but not on too tight...the point is for the steam to only come out of the hole. Don't push the lid on all the way because you will need to open the pot to add the seafood after 20 minutes.
It was all very tasty & easy to do. We added our own garlic toast to the meal. Will we do it again? I don't know...pricey. We've eaten at places that have steam pots with the same ingredients, that is enough for 2 to share, for around $30. BUT I would recommend it for the experience & to splurge at least once while on vacation.

Yeah fresh hot buttery seafood! This is exactly what we want when we come to the beach. Super fresh seafood, and lots of it. For 3 of us, we got 5 crab clusters (meat so sweet), 2 lobster tails (deliciously sweet and tender, I could have eaten 7 more), a bucketful of shrimp, clams, corn, potatoes, sausage, and cornbread. Tons of melted butter. We are full. We are happy. This could be you!
2023 Update: we did it again! Just as awesome. We got lobster tails for everyone and a crazy amount of crab legs. This year we added cornbread and key lime pie as well. It costs a lot, but this is now something we really look forward to every year. It is worth every penny.
