A rainy start to the week, but brighter skies and some excellent beach weather should settle in by midweek! 🌦️☀️

The fall music scene may be getting a little quieter, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing to Dew. We’ve still got live music, trivia and bingo around town through Thursday.

Save the schedule, tag your crew and follow for more off-season happenings. See something we missed? Drop it in the comments or send us a DM!

OktoBOARDfest is officially underway at The Starboard! 🍻🇩🇪

Polkadelphia is doing what they do best, the dance floor is moving and plenty of people understood the assignment with their dirndls and lederhosen. Wunderbar!

Grab one of the b**r mug specials, raise it high and say, “Prost!” The weather is beautiful, the music is rolling and the Oktoberfest fun is in full swing.

Das Fest ist in vollem Gange—come join the party!

Tacos for a cause? Dewey showed up! Last night’s ninth annual Tacomania at the Rusty Rudder raised an incredible $49,000 for the Developing Artist Collaborative!

Special congratulations to Brulé, our hometown favorite, for winning Most Creative Taco—and yes, it was absolutely to die for!

Here’s a little taste of the night. Cheers to all the chefs, organizers, volunteers, and taco lovers who made it such a success!

Coast TV is taking a poll about whether you support or oppose dogs on the beach in Dewey. The vote total so far have surprised me! Comment below with your thoughts. Have you noticed any of the problems that they mentioned?

Thursday is here, and Dewey is easing into the weekend with live music, tacos, margaritas and bingo! 🎶🌮

Rick Arzt gets things started at Jimmy’s at 5 PM. At 6 PM, TacoMania takes over the Rusty Rudder with unlimited taco and margarita tastings—plus live music from Lower Case Blues. This is a ticketed event, and these definitely aren’t your basic tacos!

Then head to The Starboard at 8 PM for Bingo with Julie and Jen from Merch.

Save the schedule, tag your crew and follow for everything happening around town this weekend!

LOTS of food and drink specials are rolling out now that we’re in the off-season! Swipe through to see them all! We’ve tried to capture them accurately in one place, but mistakes happen—let us know in the comments or DM us if something looks amiss or we’ve missed a favorite.

Many of these specials repeat weekly, so save this for your Thursdays this fall and share it with your dinner crew! Always confirm with the restaurant before heading out.

Don’t forget: tonight is also TacoMania at the Rusty Rudder, presented by Developing Artist Collaboration! Tickets are $75 and include unlimited tacos and margarita tastings—and these aren’t your basic tacos!

Want to include a food or drink special? Email [email protected] or DM us.

Enjoy locals’ summer, support our Dewey businesses, and get ready for the weekend!

Where Am I Wednesday? 👀🚻

This week’s clue is hiding on a restroom door somewhere around Dewey — and we have to give them points for creativity. 😂

Werewolf? Bigfoot? Whatever. Just wash your hands.

Do you know which Dewey business has this sign?

You know the drill: don’t give it away in the comments. Just comment “got it” if you know, or send us a DM if you want to check your guess.

And if you spot a funny, quirky or easily overlooked Dewey detail that would make a great future clue, send us a photo — and don’t forget to tell us where it was taken!

We’ll reveal the answer next Tell Me Tuesday!
