    While I vacation, we decided to try somewhere new and I have to say, Longboard did not disappoint. I got the Longboard wings, which are their award winning flavor! I then ordered the Shrimp Crown Imperial. It was so filling. The portion of crab was huge. My parents ordered pan seared scallops and the seafood pasta. Our server was attentive and helpful. We sat on the enclosed deck which worked because it was such a beautiful night. It appeared to be able to be multi-purpose through fall for outdoor dining.

    I have been to longboards many times and it is a great stop after a day on the beach. They have everything you could want: sandwiches, tacos, salads, entrees, and great apps. I got the fresh fish and it was just ok. It needed more of a sauce rather than mango salsa. My husband got 2 pounds of wings as his dinner and loved every minute of it. The addiction wings are award winning for a reason. I did not order some of my favorites tonight, but are worth mentioning. The franchos, wrinkly green beans, and any of the wings. I often just order the franchos and wings to split with my husband as our entire meal. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is also great indoor and outdoor seating options.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]When they expanded and put the bar on a different side, it opened the restaurant up a lot and made it so much more enjoyable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very kid friendly with good kids meals. Nothing fancy like some places try to do. They stick to kraft Mac n cheese and white bread. Your kids will be happy too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I have been here a couple times so far and that is not enough. Sadly, I live over two hours away so only get in during my ocean city trips which I wish were way more often. Last summer was my first visit after seeing some friends recommend and following them on social media. We had their longboard wings, veggie wrap and jerk chicken wrap. Everything was DELICIOUS! [[HIGHLIGHT]]On Wednesday of this week I stopped in for lunch with my dog and we sat on the 'boardwalk' which is what they call part of their outdoor section.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff was super friendly and accommodating. They offer a water bowl and a complimentary piece of bacon for the pups. My dog was thrilled as you can see by one of the pics =) On this visit I tried the wrinkled green been app and the St. Croix chopped salad. Both were very good. My dog ordered the kids burger plain with no bun. He had no complaints! I stole his fries which were yummy. Luke was our server on my most recent visit. He provided excellent service! He even helped me gain some more insight on bringing a large party there later this year. He got me in touch with one of the managers and I am currently coordinating with them. Overall, this is one of my favorite restaurants in OC and can't wait to come back in a couple months!

    Pan Seared Scallops.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]We visited the Longboard Cafe on a Friday night in February and ate in the "enclosed patio" space since the indoor space was full (yes, in February!). It was a bit chilly whenever someone opened the door and took a little getting used to.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Still, the meal was very much worth the price of admission and service was impeccable. We shared the Shrimp Quesadilla to start. Delicious and loaded with shrimp! Then we had the Pan Seared Scallops and the Shrimp Crown Imperial. We'll be back!

    Chicken Caesar with pasta salad

    I met some girlfriends at Longboard Cafe today for a mid-week lunch. I booked it because of the central location in O.C., their big & varied menu, and the fact that I could make an online reservation. They open at 11:00 am. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I arrived about 15 minutes early for my noon reservation, and only a few tables were filled. But by noon, the place was packed, with several large parties. This place is really popular.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The server was very nice and the food was excellent. I enjoyed the Chicken Caesar wrap. The pasta salad side was quite good, and a huge portion. Others had the cream of crab soup, a BLT, the mushroom blue cheese burger and other sides like coleslaw. One really unique thing was the asparagus--it was coated and fried like a tempura dish, but it was delicious!

    Cream of crab soup
    Lee Z.

    Cream of crab soup was rich and filled with just enough chunks of crab meat. The Baja fish taco with flour tortilla was not bad. The only flaw was that the sauce they put on it made the fish a bit soggy on the majority of the deep fried fish.And the batter was a bit bitter. The citrus shrimp taco with flour was good. The shrimp was cooked perfectly. The toppings and seasoning blended very well. The cabbage gave the taco a great crunchy texture with each bite. The tacos were accompanied with chips. Alex our wait staff had a pleasant and friendly personality. He was also able explain the menu items in a helpful and informative manner. Imani another staff was very personable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I like the atmosphere. A upscale casual dinner with a beachy feel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    It was recommended to try this place. I'm happy I did :-) It gets really busy--definitely make reservations. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's parking and outdoor seating available.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered the wings (honey/Old Bay)--extra crispy!! My goodness!!! It's delicious!! The flavor was on point!!! Perfect crunch!! No need for the ranch sauce--the wings were drenched in their sauce. Yum! My orange crush was ok--I've had better. The side Caesar salad was a perfect size and good. ...wings were a hit, and I will be going back to try other flavors.

    Barramundi topped with Seared Scallops & Honey Glaze W/Potatoes & Green Beans

    Why do we return to Longboard Cafe every time we're in OCMD? Well this year 4 of us are dining here 2 orders of Panseared Scallops w/green beans 1 with rice and 1 with potatoes 2 Fresh Catches of the Day 1- Salmon with Lemon Caper cream Sauce Broccoli & potatoes 1-Barramundi with Honey Glazed sauce w Broiled Scallops green beans potatoes. All meals came out marvelously delicious The Happy Hour 5-6 delivers with a Buy one get one and the table hit the Tri-Fecta for deserts 1-Gooey Bar 1- Fatal Brownie 1-Lemon Lasgna Tricia our server is always friendly, attentive and menu informative she's definitely a mainstay at long board! We missed Rick V. this year but with all the great attributes of Longboard he deserves a day off! See you again!

    Had a very good experience at Longboard. Food at dinner was good. The hamburger buns, made in-house, are particularly good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have both indoor and outdoor seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The fact that the waitress came to our table just before Happy Hour ended and told us "I can get you another beer for free with our Happy Hour 2-for-1 special if I order it before 6:00pm." took them from four stars to five stars. [[HIGHLIGHT]]One funny odd thing...I thought that it was standard that the shaker with more holes is salt, and the one with less holes is pepper. Longboard does it the opposite. I thought it was odd, and the table next to us had the same observation.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Shrimp taco
    Rama S.

    Visited longboard after hearing very good reviews about their food. We came around 5:30 and there were no available seats since they are one of the few places that take reservations so I highly recommend making a reservation. We ended up sitting outside at a table in the sun, but it worked perfectly for us. The service at this place was 10/10. Very attentive. They had bogo happy hour on a Saturday which is amazing! The food was ok for the price. Shrimp tacos were good but immediately fell apart on the corn tortilla. The famous wings were great, crispy, and came out hot and fresh. The sauce was a little thick and made it heavy, but these wings seem to be breaded and had the texture of fried chicken instead of regular wings. Edit: I came back ordering takeout and got the buddha salad, green beans with secret sauce, burger, and wings. The food was MUCH better this time. The buddha salad was so delicious and great portion sizes. Homemade dressing was a hit too. The green beans were good and I love the sauce. Good reviews for the burger. Fries were like sub shop nothing special, but overall better experience.

    Prickly pear margarita
    Cassie A.

    I am upset that this is the first time I've been to longboard cafe!! Everything was a 10/10. Everyday happy hour: buy one get one free any drink... count me in!! The service from Lucas was also great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I also loved the ambiance with the low lighting and surfer vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely be back.

    Food was pretty good. I got salmon salad and the wagyu steak, good sized persons and service was decent

    My friend and I went to Ocean City, MD for a girls weekend. We went to see the Amish Outlaws so…read morethere was a cover fee. Not sure if it is normally like that or not but we didn't mind. The bartenders were attentive and the crowd was lively. Drinks were a bit pricy but understandable being Ocean City and a tourist spot. We went at night so we didn't get to try any of the food.

I think we had arrived right at the start of it since the earlier of our group did not have to pay it. The interior of the place was very cool and filled with plants and plenty of bars. When we were walking around trying to find our group, there was live music being played with a large area for listening and dancing. We met up with our group and ordered a few drinks and were able to watch the sunset on the water. Our first round of drinks were so tasty and good. However, when we ordered our second round, the drinks were much stronger and not as tasty. I think it was a different bartender, especially since we had ordered the same drink of a long island iced tea. We didn't try any food, so I can't comment on that part. The bathrooms were a bit rough; I'm not sure if there was any working AC in the ones I went to 'cause I was so hot! The door stall in the one I was in also didn't close all the way with almost a full inch gap that you could peer into, so I had to pull it close the whole time I was using the stall. Overall, I would come early to avoid the cover fee and enjoy the atmosphere and drinks!

SO, we decided we had the time, we were hungry & nearby, so we made our way to what is now called Whiskers Saloon. We were greeted warmly by Jay who was manning both the bar and customers at tables. We took some time to peruse the 2 page menu looking for both old favorites and what's new. I decided to try one of my usual sandwiches, The Rachel for comparison sake & added Sweet potato fries (additional upgrade). I asked & was happy the special spicy sauce I loved to combine with the fries was still available under a different name, Texas sauce. I will say, my sandwich was much better than in "the old days" because this was made with actual carved turkey thick slices as opposed to thin cold cut turkey from prior ownership. I was a happy camper! My hubby tried something new to him at Whiskers, he had a chicken cheesesteak sub and was pleasantly surprised and impressed to find it was not finely chopped up chicken, but cut up grilled chicken chunks with nicely sautéed onions. We were happy to return, pleased to find that good quality & taste was still there and its what we were used to after almost 15 years of frequenting here. We were happy to see Commanders game & flag displayed for this Sunday game with many fans inside boisterously enjoying the game playingon all the tvs. All day specials were going on today and Jay told us everything they were offering on the specially priced menu which was a nice extensive list of bar food and drinks, including $3 Yeungling.

It has a nostalgic charm that makes you feel like you're experiencing a classic Ocean City tradition. I ordered the chicken salad with French fries, a Chicken Caesar Salad, and a frozen slushy drink. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The food was definitely worth the visit, and the slushy drink was the perfect complement to a warm day at the beach. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and made the experience even more enjoyable. The restaurant has a welcoming atmosphere and is a great place to cool off while still enjoying views and the energy of the boardwalk. The only minor downside was a few flies, which is understandable given the beach location and open-air environment. The payment system also felt a bit dated, but it didn't take away from the overall experience. If you're looking for a comfortable indoor restaurant right on the Ocean City Boardwalk with delicious food, friendly service, and a nostalgic vibe, I highly recommend stopping by the Inlet Bar & Grill. It's a great place to take a break from the beach without leaving the boardwalk.
