This is not a pizza restaurant. They actually source their pizzas from another restaurant called Delphinas. It would be better to go there instead, take the pizza to go, and eat it anywhere you prefer. The wait will be shorter.

Great, out of the way window bar with great views of the marina. Nice breeze to sit and watch and drink!

Great place to relax and bring your dog (they have a water bowl

Book your trivia or bingo as soon as you book your trip to BHI fun for the whole group! Order your pizzas early in the day they'll be delivered while you are playing, plus waitstaff for drinks as you go. Great fun!

Awful pizza (it shares the same kitchen as Delphina's). The flavor was nonexistent, and it cost almost $40. One pizza had a crust that was so thin it was burnt and dark brown, while the vegetables were raw, and there were just one or two bits of feta per slice. I only gave it two stars because they were accommodating and refunded our money due to how bad it was. However, Coopers brick oven pizza looked much more appealing, although we didn’t try it.

Nestled by the waterfront, this restaurant offers a unique dining experience, combining stunning views with a diverse menu. While they serve tasty pizzas sourced from Delphinas, patrons may find it more worthwhile to dine there directly due to long waits and high prices, with one-topping pizzas reaching $40. Service varies, ranging from enjoyable outdoor dining sessions to frustrating mix-ups and limited hours, particularly for tourists. Highlights include a relaxed atmosphere, refreshing drinks, and new menu additions like charcuterie. Overall, it’s a spot worth visiting, especially for pizza enthusiasts and those seeking a scenic meal.

Entire group, adults and teens/tweens, enjoyed the family trivia night. Thanks for offering it.

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. It was my first time trying sushi, and I was pleasantly surprised by the generous portions. The covered outdoor seating offered a fantastic view and created a lovely atmosphere. They also served my favorite drink, Athletic Brew, which was delicious. Whether you're a sushi lover, looking for a good meal, or simply want a unique dining experience, I highly recommend checking this place out.

We had a disappointing experience at this restaurant. First, our food was mistakenly given to another customer, and after that, they didn't fulfill our order despite promising to do so. We ended up not receiving our meal, and the staff showed little concern about the situation. Seriously? Food quality: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 4

We had another fantastic experience at this restaurant. The pizza was outstanding—crispy, thin crust, just what we needed after a long day on the river. We were thrilled to discover they had added a new charcuterie option to the menu since our last visit a year ago, and it even came in a pizza box! It couldn't have been more perfect. We also enjoyed the frozen lemonade and frosé, which were delicious accompaniments to our meal. In my opinion, the best vegetarian option on the menu is the veggie pizza with white sauce.

Will O' The Wisp is a beloved local favorite on Bald Head Island that you definitely need to visit. Enjoy trivia nights, live music, and of course, their delicious pizza. The menu offers a variety of cold drinks to complement the beautiful view.

A spot of heaven on the great and wonderful BHI! Order pizza, a drink and watch the boats come and go and just frickin relax, and watch the sun set. you will not regret it. This Review is short, if I get to wordy, it will just lessen the importance this location plays on the island. RELAX!

MARINA PIZZA (probably deserves its own listing) what a pleasant surprise. Didn't feel up to eating out and wanted a simple dinner so we got a few types of pizzas (different flavors and toppings lots of options) and ate in. We were pleasantly surprised and chowed through the pizzas tasting the different options. What a nice choice on BHI!

I've never been overly impressed by the food options available on BHI but this place changed that- it was delicious! Great pizza and perfect setting overlooking the marina. Happy to hear they're working on opening another location on the island next spring. Hope their pizza is included on the menu!

The owner is so pleasant, she came out and found my husband, saying you look like you need a beer she was right! We sat and looked at the ferry coming in, and the marina and all the action.. it was such a pleasant afternoon! Love the new deck and chairs, awesome! Thank you for a wonderful afternoon

The service at this restaurant was disappointing and showed little regard for tourists. It's worth mentioning that everything shuts down by 8 PM, even during the busy summer season.

I have never had a worse pizza in my life, and to make things even worse, it cost over $40. I would have been better off buying a frozen pizza from the supermarket. I was extremely disappointed and will not be ordering from this restaurant again. If I could give it zero stars, I definitely would.

I ordered a charcuterie board and paid $18 for it instead of the usual $25 because their oven was broken and they weren't able to prepare pizza, which is their main offering. The server also took 30 minutes to go to another kitchen to retrieve it.

We once again had a wonderful pizza at this restaurant - it was crispy, thin-crust, and exactly what we needed after a day spent floating on the river. We were delighted to find that they had introduced a new charcuterie option to the menu since our last visit a year ago. It even came in a pizza box! It couldn't have been better. We also sampled the frozen lemonade and frosé, both of which were excellent pairings. As for vegetarian options, the veggie pizza with white sauce is my favorite on the menu.

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. It was my first time trying sushi, and I was pleasantly surprised by the large portion sizes. The outdoor, covered seating offered an amazing view and created a lovely atmosphere. To top it all off, they had my favorite drink, Athletic Brew, which made my visit even better. Whether you're a sushi lover, in search of a great meal, or simply looking for a unique experience, I highly recommend this place!

The pizza at this restaurant was quite disappointing, similar to what you'd find at Delphina's. It lacked flavor and was priced at nearly $40. One of the crusts was excessively browned and overcooked, while the vegetables were undercooked, and each slice had only one or two small pieces of feta. I gave it two stars solely because they refunded our money after we complained about the quality. Cooper's Brick Oven Pizza appeared to be a much better option, although we didn't get a chance to try it.

The pizza was delicious, but it was pretty pricey at $40 for a one-topping pizza! Make sure to verify their hours, as they stop accepting pizza orders by 4:30 PM. It’s surprising for a pizzeria to close at 5:30 PM on a Saturday.
