If you arrive Friday evening and are looking for a place to relax and take in the salty ocean air, one of our favorite places for happy hour is Echo, located inside of the King & Prince Resort. Here you'll find a cozy lounge and outdoor patio with a fun cocktail menu and happy hour options. Top Picks: Local Cheese Sampler; Braised Beef Pot Roast, Seasonal Desserts. We often find ourselves just ordering the cheese plate as a meal with a cocktail or two, and then skipping straight to dessert! We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
