My gang of 10 was looking for dinner on a weeknight leading up to July 4th. We couldn't find any place that wasn't already at capacity except here. Was grateful we found this place as it had a huge rooftop dining area over looking the beach. Very scenic! However, there was hardly any service provided. We had to put the tables together ourselves. Tables weren't clean. We had to find a server as they were huddled around the bar for a while. Ordered food that took a while to arrive, in piece meal, and even missed my kid's meal who was waiting for so long just to realize they somehow missed her order. This wasn't acceptable as it wasn't even a busy night. :( On top of that, our pitcher of water was empty so someone threw scrap straw wrapping in there. When asked for more water, the server just refilled the water without noticing the garbage. Food was pretty decent, sushi rolls were good and my seafood pasta w/red sauce was good. It truly was the lack of attentiveness staff that brought the rating down. read more

Service Dog Repeatedly Denied Indoor Access at Beachcomer My family lives in the area and visits the boardwalk once or twice a week. At every other business we go to -- Sawmill, Ocean View, and others -- we are always welcomed with my service dog, Lincoln, no questions asked. Beachcomer is the one exception. On multiple occasions, the bouncers at the door have told us dogs are not allowed inside and that we must sit at an outside table instead. Each time, we explain that Lincoln is a service dog. Each time, the answer is the same: outside only. Rather than make a scene, we've simply left and gone elsewhere. This is a direct violation of federal and New Jersey law. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (Title III) and New Jersey's Law Against Discrimination (N.J.S.A. 10:5-29), a person with a disability accompanied by a trained service dog is entitled to full and equal access to any place open to the public -- including indoor seating, not an outdoor table set apart from other customers. A business may only ask two things: whether the dog is a service dog, and what task or work it's trained to perform. They cannot ask about the handler's disability, demand documentation or a vest, or restrict a handler to a separate area the way a non-disabled customer would never be restricted. This has now happened enough times that it isn't a misunderstanding -- it's a standing policy at the door. I'm sharing this so other service dog handlers on the boardwalk know what to expect, and so Beachcomer's ownership has a chance to correct staff training before this continues. read more

Stopped in for a draft beer but all their taps were down. It was kind of stuffy inside and not great beer selection so we bounced after a couple bottle beers. read more

This place has gone down hill. The owner hasn't done anything to this place in decades. We were there sat with friends to watch Mushmouth. What a shit hole it's so disgusting flies in the bathroom smell of burnt fryer oil. The back bar coolers don't even shut. There's numerous cracks in the ceiling sad this place has gotten so bad. read more

Loud but Boring The Jersey Shore show special here, so I guess you go for nostalgia. Loud and crazy if you like that. Beer is not that cold. As anywhere in seaside, clientel is always mixed. I was pleased that the place was not packed and sat on the outdoor terrace. Good service. Ordered a couple of apps. The table was very dirty, so was the bathroom and the couches on the terrace. Such a shame that disturbed the great view. Usually have live music and it is loud and jumping, but we expected more. It was just blah, from the band to the clientele. Wanted to see some Jersey Shore shenanigans, I guess not. Just ok. Thanks read more

Ryan was great. This place is always vibey even on a Wednesday night!! Can't go wrong

Delicious food, good music and vibes, live music and DJ. The views are great and the drinks are good too read more

Beachcomber Bar & Grill - Chicken Caesar wrap - Dance Clubs Near Me - Seaside Heights, New Jersey

I've been going to Beachcomber for many, many years, back to when it was on the opposite side of the boardwalk stretched out to the surf on the beach. From seafood to burgers, their food is consistently good, and their pizza is my favorite on the boardwalk. The staff is always very friendly and attentive, and it's definitely my favorite place to hang out and have food, a beer or a drink on the boardwalk. They have a great jukebox, but when there's a band playing I find it a little too loud and the crowd can be a bit overwhelming. The rooftop deck is really nice and enjoyable when the weather is good. I've hung out at a lot of places on the boardwalk in Seaside, but I keep returning to Beachcomber. I always feel comfortable there. read more

Always a fun time! Great service. Fun crowd. Lots of room. We didn't eat tonight but have eaten here before and loved it.

Did you visit Seaside Heights without going to Beachcomber? Can you beat a $6 mixed drink? The answer to both of those questions is no, so I'm glad we stopped in during our walk along the boardwalk to grab a drink, take in an iconic Jersey Shore location, and enjoy the company! read more

Service was great! My husband and I sat at the bar and the bartenders tended to jump around, I have to say Jessica was not only a fanatic bartender,she's extremely pretty, this girls the whole package! Definitely come to see her! The food was very good, especially after a double drinks. Super fun vibe! Came here 7/3/26. read more

Our waitress was new and I don't want to be harsh but I think this was her first job ever. Service was so slow, she kept forgetting simple things from our order and our food came out randomly. I had finished my food before all of the orders even came out. The food was pretty average. By far the worst place I ate on the boardwalk. Me and my party of 7 will never be back. I'll definitely would not recommend! read more

Jay the bartender was GREAT!!! Awesome service by him and the oyster was super fresh with the horse radish!!!

Stopped in for a quick lunch today. I ordered chicken fingers and fries and my husband got a spicy tuna poke bowl. My lunch was fine and my husband enjoyed his. We spent $16 on a Malibu Bay Breeze bucket when tasted nothing like it. read more

DO NOT COME!!!!!!! Worst bar ever especially if you aren't from here. called the cops on my id and were more then rude about it when i am clearly of age and was only kind. Bad establishment bad people and the worst kind of place to go. 0/10 wow would give it 0 if i could never ever ever ever go! (unless you want men that are rude to women and yell!!!!!!(workers)) read more

Full disclosure right off the top - this is not my scene and never has been. This is quintessential Jersey Shore, we pump our fists not our gas. It's a two-story bar/dance club with tons of pulsing techno beats (though not insanely loud, which I appreciated), and lots of guys with way too much hair gel and spray tans. Every cliché is right here for your viewing pleasure. My noble chum posse came here during our Seaside boardwalk people-watching expedition this past Saturday night around 8 or 9. I'd guess we stayed for half an hour or so, maybe a little longer. I imagine this place gets considerably busier later in the evening, but during our visit, it was pretty crowded though not overwhelmingly so. Our first stop was the bathroom, which was fairly clean for a Seaside bar though there was quite a bit of naughty graffiti in the stalls (pretty par for the course, and some of it was even mildly clever). Two of us then got drinks at the second floor bar while the other scouted the adjacent deck for a good table. We each got a frozen cocktail - I believe hers was a margarita, while mine was a pina colada-like concoction, both fairly decent portions. There was no wait and both drinks were received probably within 30 seconds of ordering. Perfectly acceptable for what it was. She paid, but I think each drink was less than $10, which, again, seems fine. One big issue - the floors were super slick. I never full-on slipped or came close to falling down, but that's only because I was super careful once I saw a few other people momentarily lose their footing. I'm honestly surprised they'd play with fire like this. A slippery floor with a bunch of inebriated people? What could go wrong? Other than that though, it was perfectly fine. We heard a lot of songs that I suspect are considered almost retro now (Flo Rida's Low is 15 years old now, which makes me feel beyond ancient), and there was a light breeze despite it being a humid summer night. You could do worse than this place, but make sure you have some tread on your shoes. read more

Came here for my birthday and sat down halfway through the game of bingo they were playing, I ended up getting 5 In a row and called bingo and the tweaker woman next to me yelled at me and said that's not how you win bingo, and the sweaty 40 year old loser behind the bar called me an a hole over the mic which was all jokes and fun but they did a horrible job explaining rules, actually to say they never explained the rules, bartenders were to busy slamming shots to explain the rules I guess, band they had there was fire tho! Let's see if they remove this review like they did my other one! Also last I checked most bars you can order food at the bar but this one you gotta get up out of your seat to go get food read more

Short Summary: The pizza was delicious, and the guy selling it was very nice, but the bartender ruined everything. He's been rude since I first walked into this bar. Full Story: I'm 21, and when I showed my ID on my phone in the official app with all my documents and a QR code, the bartender started loudly mocking me, saying it was just a picture. He took a piece of paper, showed it to everyone there, and loudly asked if he could take my documents from the app on my phone the same way. I pretended it didn't bother me and showed him my physical ID since I also had it in my pocket. After that, he reluctantly gave me my beer, and I said I would pay by card, holding up my phone with Apple Pay. He saw this and said that "by card" doesn't mean by phone, and I need to specify that it's Apple Pay. I just wanted to get my beer and leave, so I didn't argue, thanked him, and left. The next day, I came back to the same bar, smiled, said hello, was polite, and wanted to order two beers to take to the ocean, but he wouldn't sell them to me. He said I could only have one because my friend, who DOESN'T DRINK ALCOHOL AT ALL, didn't show her ID. So he said, and I quote, "you can have one, or none," and just turned around and went to other people. The owner should pay attention to this because it looked like he was rude to me because I'm Ukrainian, although I hope that's not the case... So, I will leave a comment in English and Ukrainian and attach photos so that Ukrainians don't go there, and the owner pays attention to this. read more

On my normal rating scale, this is a 3.5 but because our server was so friendly and helpful I am rounding up! I tried typical Boardwalk food that my friends ordered- lots of fried stuff not anything to write home about. I was however happy to see sushi on the menu and the sushi chef appeared to be rolling out decently prepared rolls. I'm also happy to report the sushi is good! The cheesesteak sandwich is also a good choice after the sushi. By the way, the fried Oreos are worth the calories if you're craving or have never tried them read more

Good solid comfort food , great staff and entertainment. Always stop in every time we are in Seaside.

Mediocre at best. I got chicken tenders which were alright, but then I got the shrimp scampi. Shrimp was fresh, but the sauce was terrible. No garlic, all butter. The butter wasn't even good. Pasta was bottom tier as well. read more

For my husband's family, the Beachcomber has always been their go-to for cheesesteaks when at the boardwalk. I remember they took me on my first visit to the shore. Hubby and I were back on the east coast for a visit for the first time in several years and for our last night in town, the inlaws suggested Beachcomber. Seemed like a great idea. We each ordered a cheesesteak and shared a side of cheese fries. Such a disappointing farewell meal. Some of the fries were practically raw. Someone obviously wasn't paying attention and/or doesn't know how to actually cook the potatoes. The cheesesteaks themselves were even more disappointing - especially in the bread to filling ratio. I was definitely eating far more bread than meat. We were all very disappointed. These are not the cheesesteaks we used to get. I understand that Covid has impacted supply chains everywhere and that restaurants especially are suffering, but there are ways to adjust and still serve a quality product to your customers. read more

Good place for late night drinks. So many places close early in seaside but beachcomber stays open late. The bartender was very nice and drinks were cheap. The bathrooms were not the cleanest. read more

Great view and socially distancing practices in place but the food was average. I had the grilled chicken panini; it came out cold and the cheese wasn't even melted. I understand that COVID times are making things difficult for restaurants but the basics still need to be addressed. Convenience and location (beach) are its best attributes but the town is seedyso I won't be in that beach town again soon. read more

The food at beachcombers is good. I had oysters for an appetizer and Cajun pasta for my entree. Later I went upstairs to their rooftop bar to do a little partying. Overall the place was okay. It's unacceptable that there is no soap at all in the women's bathroom. read more

I have eaten the seafood here several times and have never been disappointed ... but haven't sat down to have a drink in over a decade maybe. I was having an extremely rough day and the first bartender I had wasn't very interested in me .. I don't have a penis or a money clip .. these are my shortcomings, unfortunately. Alas, the second bartender who struck up a conversation with me was a total delight!. She was energetic, fun and knowledgeable. Her mother is Colombian and we were able to discuss our favorite out of the box spots around here and she gave me awesome suggestions to where to hit up next !! I am in the industry so this was an excellent lesson for me.... this girl made a 180 of my evening by just Acknowledging me and getting me excited to try out more hot spots im missing out on. Great conversation , boozy drinks, I know the bar seafood is good and I didn't break the bank . Of course I'm coming back read more

I'm going to leave them at 4 stars even though this past visit was a little inconvenient. We usually come in on Saturdays early afternoon. It's great, there are the same 3 bartenders there every time, year after year. I like that part because they are good people. However, they stopped running tabs which is really inconvenient in a cashless society. If you wanted one $3 Bud Light you pretty much had to buy something else or pay for a round for your group to be able to use your card. Luckily they were lenient on the minimum but they told me "around $10." Luckily we sat at the bar for a few hours but needing to pay as you go was a little annoying. Prices here for domestic beer are the best for sure but the no running a tab is a little annoying. read more

Yes! This place was delish!! Right on the beach and very yummy. I got the chicken teriyaki pike bowl (10/10) And California rolls 8/10. My boyfriend got the salmon pike bowl he said it was a 7/10. Service is order and seat yourself which works out perfect for a beach day! Our server for drinks was wonderful. The Ambiance was so much fun for my boyfriend and I read more

Typical boardwalk bar and grill. The bartender was friendly and spent time talking to us about why we were in town. This place is absolutely dead during the off season. The food situation is weird because you go order from a counter and they wave you over when it's done. The menu was smaller than their peak season but they still made us some sandwiches and wraps. We would have liked the wraps to come with fries with something as a side. Overall, typical as can be. Nothing special here. I'm sure it's a cool spot during the peak season. read more

Beachcomber Bar & Grill - Buffalo chicken wrap - Dance Clubs Near Me - Seaside Heights, New Jersey

My favorite thing about coming to this bar, is the rooftop area they have. You catch nice breezes and views of the beach/ocean. When I come on the weekends in the summertime, they always have a live DJ spinning up good music. People dance and just enjoy themselves. Beers and Rum & Cokes are around $5, which is what you would expect to pay. They have a $15 Bacardi bucket, which is the best deal, as it is loaded with alchohol and taste great. It has some fruity flavors, but you feel nice once you finish it. There is also plenty of seating on the rooftop, so you will be able to find a spot. I have not tried the food here yet, but for drinks and atmosphere, I think this place is great and a must stop, when your in Seaside. read more

Loving the new 'comber with the upstairs patio. Great spot to people watch the boardwalk and beach from above. Food service upstairs is by the waitress only. We understand they are working hard but it was tough to get the waitress' attention to place orders. Music mix was great! A mix between dance tunes, mellow tunes and some rock. If we were picky we would turn the volume down a little bit before sunset, just so we could talk to each other without screaming over the music. Hubby had the crab cake sandwich $10 for 2 hockey puck sized cakes on a long roll. It was better than expected, served with slaw, and not dripping with grease. I had the grilled chicken panini for $8- not as grilled as a normal panini but it was a good, filling meal and good alternative to fried bar food. This may be a new "must stop" spot on the new Seaside boardwalk. $1.50 Coors light $4 Corona read more

Great spot on the boardwalk with outside seating and ocean views. I have not had food here so this review is based on three visits for drinks only. Bartenders are great - excellent service. Prices are reasonable. The only place to get a decent glass of wine on the boardwalk. More my scene off season and thankfully they are open year round- too much in the height of the summer. read more

BIG CHANGE from what it was for years to what it is today . Been coming there for years with family , had numerous parties there and spent plenty of money . Well now it's a place with rude staff and dirty floors . Bartender with "Superman" shirt (Same one every week ) has attitude like he does not need our business and talks back like he is doing you a favor by serving you while taking shots with some of his friends . Bartender on the other side with cap backwards when asked to turn on one of the 5 TVs that currently off around the restaurant part of the place to watch the game , replies back that he doesn't want to ! Food became pretty crappy as well. not to mention watered down beers . Flies that all over the place enjoying food before you get to and they are everywhere . Will have to file a complaint to "department of health" Sorry Mike Carbone ( owner ) , it was a great place before and lots of memories .Maybe if the staff was nicer I wouldn't bother going further , but those bartenders especially the one with cap backwards made us go just down the block to " the sawmill" which we never knew was great , because we were always at your place . Will never step a foot in your place again ! read more

Its a beautiful Sunday and a walk on the seaside boardwalk with My friend seemed the thing to do. The sun was setting and the smell of food was winning me over. As we walked the south part of the boardwalk music from the 80's and free style was coming from a second story balcony on top of beach combers. Never being here before was went up and checked it out. We located a table and got a drink from the bar. After looking around I realized wow everyone here my age and the music was when I was 21 years old. We ordered nachos and cheese which was very good, decent portion and the waitress was very nice. The awesome patio view was that of the ocean. The only reason for 3 stars was the lack of cool lighting and gloominess. I had a lot of fun and will return. The DJ was actually pretty cool. read more

Pizza is so good. Went there for bingo and just keep going back. The bingo guy is such a trip really makes it a good time.

If I could give this place zero stars I would! I am so upset I'm actually furious that I had my nieces over from Texas and we're dying to go to this place to eat. Mind you this place is a bar and Grill which means you can drink and you can eat and of course everybody likes to eat not everybody likes to drink. The ambience is beautiful, unfortunately they did not allow me to bring in my nieces! Yes they are of age to be on their own but they are under age to drink and they did not allow them in for that matter. This place should just be called a bar!!!!Which really made me look bad by saying I will take them because this is exactly where they wanted to go. For a bar and grill, to not let anyone in to eat, this looks bad on them! The bouncers were very nasty, rude and no respect. The words that came out of their mouth yelling at people, These guys are bouncers not fighters! No matter what we said to them and promised them that we are not here to drink we are only here for the ambience and the food and yet they said it was policy and cannot allow them in. But at the same time other family members were going in with younger children and teenagers, yes that was allowed! So you tell me, where their policy stands that my nieces are not allowed in but the younger children are????? Frustrated is not enough to tell you how I feel. They just lost money on me and my group of nine to celebrate my birthday no less and ruin my day even more. Good luck to who else gets crappy service like this! read more
