THE Silver Dollar
About the Silver Dollar — Since 1957
The Silver Dollar is the oldest and most iconic bar in Carolina Beach originally established in 1957. It is well known as the bar your parents and grandparents visited every time they were in Carolina Beach. The oldest and most iconic bar in Pleasure Island, there will never be another like the Dollar. Located steps from the beach and in the heart of the iconic Carolina Beach Boardwalk, the Silver Dollar is in the heart of the action!
69 years in business!!!!! It is THE timeless establishment for locals and tourists alike, who always come back day after day and year after year for good times and memories. The Dollar has weathered every storm, never slowing down, and always there for everyone. Karaoke downstairs fills the nights, while the newly opened rooftop, aptly named the Top Dollar Bar. This rooftop bar is perfect for ocean-breeze cocktails, moonrise evenings, watching fireworks, and catching live music or a DJ on select nights
You'll find nods to our history tucked everywhere—old photos, rescued signs, and bar wood that's earned its stripes. But we're not a museum; we're alive, nightly. The Silver Dollar is where the island's day winds down and its night begins, where a quick drink turns into a great evening, and where you're always welcome—whether it's your first visit or your 150th. Not only can you not come to CB without coming to THE DOLLAR, but you will come to Carolina Beach to come to THE DOLLAR again and again. We look forward to making memories with you.
