Martell's Tiki Bar - Martells March 2026 - Tiki Bars Near Me - Point Pleasant, New Jersey

Love the concept of tiki but the cover charge is ridiculous. Multiple bars make for ordering drinks easy as long as the bar tenders aren't ignoring you. We ordered nachos and I recommend not getting them. They are smothered in fake cheese sauce and the hormel chili from a can. The coconut shrimp was good. read more

Martell's Tiki Bar - Tiki Bars Near Me - Point Pleasant, New Jersey

I come here at least 2-3x every summer. It's a good spot to be with friends or a date of you're into taking someone to the beach. The entrance is cash only but once you're in the bar is card (no tap) or cash. The area is clean and has a place for water, drinks, and to wash your self off. You can also have some food here. The staff are amazing and super friendly. Of you can, visit on a Monday for tiki Monday. It's a blast! read more

True Score: 3.5 Stars Huge This place has live music, another level with a DJ and a beach serving drinks. If you love music and the beach this is the place to check out. Age ranges from 25-50. The food is ok, but it's a real chill spot to go with friends or family. This spot is right off the main boardwalk so you have everything right there. Music entertainment, food and drinks on the beach. Biggest problem and it is to be expected is the price. 25 dollar sandwiches for sub par food. 8 dollar beers, 14 dollar weak drinks. We hung here for a football game on a Sunday. 4 of us with food and drinks spent nearly 450 dollars in 3 hours. It adds up quickly, beware. Great location. Thanks read more

I was stopped by a security guard standing by the stairs at the Tiki Bar simply because I was wearing a Brazil soccer jersey. When I asked why I couldn't film, instead of explaining the policy, he said, "This is America, and you have to follow the rules." I told him that I am American and asked where the sign was stating that filming wasn't allowed. Instead of answering, he focused on my accent and implied that I wasn't American because of the way I speak and the jersey I was wearing. I found his behavior discriminatory and racist. No customer should be treated differently because of their nationality, accent, or the language they speak. read more

I grew up with Martells so I guess I'm a little biased, but I love flying back home and coming here. The live music that they get is alway top notch. The food is pretty good for a bar. The staff is very friendly. Thanks for all the years of a good time. read more

was hanging out this past weekend. Had to check something on my phone, but no Wi-Fi and none of the workers know what the Wi-Fi is. What a bunch of crap that is. I guess they don't want you on your phone otherwise it'll take away from their entertainment, and some business at the bar. Can't get much greedy than that !!! read more

4 Stars Great spot with a laid-back vibe and incredible views! We had a dozen Old Bay steamed clams (perfectly seasoned), a cheeseburger with fries, and drinks--a Red Bull and a Diet Pepsi. The barmaid/waitress was super friendly and attentive, and the service was quick. Definitely a solid place to relax, grab a bite, and enjoy the scenery. read more

Cool spot for drinks and live music right on the beach. Bartenders are relatively friendly and attentive considering how overwhelmed they were with drunk people swarming the bar. The skinny beach margarita was pretty gross. We could barely finish them. Such an overwhelming artificial flavor that had a punch with a cheap tequila flavor. Good beer selections. read more

I've been to Martell a few times and it's definitely not anything to die for, the food is decent but the staff seems to be slow and not attentive, security guys always have some sort of lil dick ego read more

I think this place is a solid 3 stars. Why? -they have booze. -they are in an oceanfront setting. -the bartender was quite good considering he had to handle an entire bar that was packed on an "unseasonably" warm mid-April day. He wasn't the type for friendly banter but he got the job done. -the fries probably come from Sysco or whoever supplies elementary school cafeterias. After a few drinks they seemed quite good. Slightly salty but aren't they always? The draft beer selection is pretty weak. They had patron tequila but the only variety of "1800" Brand was coconut. Nikki loves it, I think it tastes like old school suntan oil. There's always been some band playing every time I've gone. Are they good? I dunno, do you expect a band playing in this sort of venue to be top tier talent? I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the tiki bar if you're at the shore and want a drink with mediocre food. For satiety, one would be better off getting a boardwalk slice before or after imbibing, or sticking to bar standby's like the fries or chicken tenders. Then you can walk it off and enjoy your shore day. read more

*** update 9/19/2023 - I am removing one star because this past Saturday I went back to Martell's and after opening a tab, giving my credit card, we left our bags on the table near the stage and walked to the bar near the water to take a few pictures. Once we got back our waitress (Rachel) had moved our stuff to another table and gave our table to another family (probably regulars). There were many tables available at that time. Once I brought this up to her attention she said that we should have informed her we were leaving. So what's the point of opening a tab? I wasn't going to run away! We were gone for less than 15 minutes. *** ** original 4 stars review ** I visited Martell's this past Sunday and was overall satisfied with my visit. Keep in mind that on Sundays it doesn't get crowded like on Saturdays or Mondays (Tiki Mondays) and there are no DJ's so it's a quieter ambiance. If you are looking for a spring break type of party avoid Sunday. But if you just want to have a good time, listen to live music and have a few drinks you will have fun. On the plus side on Sundays it's easier to find parking on the streets nearby and there was no line to get in. If you go on Saturdays I would suggest arriving earlier than 11am. We had a burger which was pretty decent and both the beer and drink prices are also decent. I paid around $6 plus tax for local beer and my wife's Pina Colada were about $10 plus tax. For a Tiki Bar at Point Pleasant beach where hotels are $200+ per night and pizza slices are over $5 on the boardwalk I believe Martell's prices are ok. The waitress was friendly and the afternoon band (Nine Deeez) was great. We had a lot of fun! We didn't stay for the Sunday evening band so we can't comment on that. I will probably return on a Saturday and update my review at that time. read more

My first time at the famed Martell's Tiki Bar. It was really chill and lowkey when we went. We sat on the beach in a nice area and had a few drinks. The food and drink are pretty standard for a bar like this. Reasonably sized and priced and with a good amount of creativity. I personally got a red white a blue type drink with margarita, pina colada, and blue Curacao. Clams of the half were solid and the music was decent. The sound is much better closer to the stage though. Out of the beach area the live band was significantly muffled. read more

We stopped in for a couple of drinks and split a burger. The burger was nothing special, but the fries were at least good. Service sucked but that's because Payton got her tip before we were done eating, because if you sit at the bar when, it's dead and don't open a tab, you pay upfront, so why check on people if you already got your tip. read more

Very nice location on the boardwalk, but the food has definitely gone downhill. We had a party of 9 and everyone's food was flavorless and slimy. There was also a $5 cover for everyone to enter on top of eating and drinking. They had a dj but wasn't nearly as popular as the other bars next door. I don't this place should charge a cover considering the food quality and lack of crowd for dancing. read more

This is for the Lobster House, specifically. DISGUSTING! First of all, You walk in and the room just reeks of nasty old fish, not delicious seafood. The floor is littered with garbage. The table we sat at had no silverware or Napkins or anything we needed for our meal. After they dropped off our appetizer, they still didn't get us any so we had to take from another table, just unnecessarily embarrassing. After we ate, the appetizers and used plates sat at the corner of our table the rest of our meal, no one came and cleared the table at any point of our meal. This is like 5 dirty dishes piled on top of each other, that we had to strategically move around a few times to make room for our food. At one point I saw the waitress take a single plate from another table and the napkin and food fell on the ground. I kid you not, she stopped, looked at it, thought about picking it up, and decided to keep walking and leave it there. It stayed there the rest of the time we were there, about another hour and was still there when we walked out. They could not care less and show zero pride in what they do it seems. Then we get our food and needed a drink refill. We ate half of our food before we had to find someone to help us because I kid you not, our waitress was too busy eating her dinner and looking at her phone to help us . She decided to eat a few tables away so we saw very clearly. I'm no snob but cmon now, help your tables before you break. At least make sure their food is ok and that they don't need anything like, I don't know, SILVERWARE, Napkins, condiments. Being there with your 5-year-old child you just want them to be taken care of but that wasn't even happening. Last, the food. We got the spicy clams in a pot or whatever and there was 0.25 in of broth at the bottom and the top was filled with dry nasty clams. I had the lobster pot which was good, I really liked it, no complaints there. The sushi was decent too. Maybe If the restaurant wasn't disgusting and the staff cared at all it would've been ok. Summary - absolutely disgusting restaurant with genuinely the worst service I've ever experienced in my life. It's pricey and food is average but if you're considering taking your family to a nice meal, I'd highly recommend you skip this dump and get a slice instead. Save your hard earned money, they don't deserve your business. read more

I hate that I had to give this place a star rating at all. Let's start off with Martell's lobster house. I got there and sat at the bar with friends and the bartender Joanie D. was absolutely nasty, no greeting or interaction. After sit and her walking past me for about 20 mins I finally flagged her down to order she barely stood there to take my full order and in shouting my order as she's walking away. She comes back and tell me I have to pay immediately and after I hand her the card she kind of just flings the book over to us. but there were other people ordering and she didn't ask them for payment ahead. Our food comes out she never checked on us to ask if we needed anything or how it was. Again I had to flag her down and rudely as we're asking her for sauce she walks off again where the other person that was serving with her brought what we asked over. But the men that was sitting next to us she was so cheerful to serve them. Never asked did we want a drink or anything but had security come over because I pulled a drink out of my bag that I was not drinking. Now let's move on to tiki. I used to come here years ago with my friends and we decided to go. We were lounging right next to tiki beach because that where my friends were sitting we go into tiki bar and that when we got a call from our other friends saying that we had to move out stuff as we go to walk out we get stopped by security because of 2 missing wristbands. We're 3 women and explaining that our stuff is over there and we just can't to pack it up to leave. He's being so aggressive and loud talking to us as if we're children telling us he didn't know how we got in but can't exit we need to walk out through the front and walk around when telling him our stuff is right there and we just want to grab it. He then tells another guy to escort us and watch us while we "grab our sh*t" as if we're criminals and did something wrong. For a grown man to talk to women like that yelling over a wristband is ridiculous because I know he would not speak to a man like that. I'm spending my money at your establishment and you're treating me like crap is ridiculous. This place use to be great but it went downhill read more

I was with my girlfriends a few weeks ago and we stopped by Martell's Tiki Bar to get a drink and have lunch. The first thing I noticed is you can't just walk in. You have to get in a line and go through security and get a wrist band even if you are just coming for lunch. I thought this was strange considering they have indoor and outdoor seating for food and drinks. It was a weekday afternoon around 12:30p. I sat at the bar and had a good view from my seat of the afternoon band that was playing. This place has an afternoon and evening band. In the fall the bands are on the weekend. I started with one of their signature frozen drinks called My-Ami Vice- It's a combination of a Pina Colada and strawberry Daiquiri topped with the Kraken Black Spiced Rum. I also added a floater.( A test tube filled with spice rum. Once you pull it up and out of the drink the rum tops the frozen drink.) This frozen drink is really good and on a warm day it's very refreshing. For my lunch I chose their SALMON SUSHI BOWL- Scottish Salmon Sliced And Served Over Baby Lettuce Topped With Cucumber & Avocado, Baby Corn, Seaweed Salad With A Teriyaki Glaze. This was really light, delicious and filling. The bartenders were very nice and friendly. The band was really good. I would definitely return to try some other food and drinks. read more

Great place terrible staff. Drove 3 hours and was told 1 person in the groups "stumbled". Mind you the guy who "stumbled" was carrying 2 chairs, an umbrella, and a bag. Slightly tripped because of what he was carrying. The security guards name was John and he was awful. John is an embarrassment to this establishment. Martels do better and fire John for causing you guys lots of money and bad reviews. read more

No wonder you are a failing business. If daddy didn't put in the work years ago this place would never exist. Place is horrible, drinks suck, bouncers suck, they are lucky they can afford their bills. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. The disrespect I encountered at this establishment has to be the worst I've ever experienced. They are empty on a Saturday night. Looking for business and can't fill a bar, a bouncer(male) physically touched a women. Horrible place would never go back. #failing #forsalesooncsn you police me ió read more

I have been here many times but this is my first review. I was very lucky to find a parking space when I arrived otherwise I would of had to pay to park. When I walked up to the Tiki bar the line wasn't so bad and it was moving. They were very organized and stuck to social distancing. We were seated at a high top and it was apart from the other tables. The hostess that sat us named Lyndsay was so nice and even helped us to get on the beach. Our server was Jill and she was nice and attentive as well. I ordered a drink and I didn't like it too much so she took it back and got another no problem. My friend ordered the yard drink and mozzarella sticks and she liked hers. The pricing wasn't too bad either. When we finished eating and drinking we went on the beach and they kept count of who was on and didn't let people on if they were at capacity. We had to look for a safe spot and we enjoyed how nice and clean the beach looked. Overall I had a good experience. read more

I love going to Martell's in the summer. It's VERY Jersey. If you're from Jersey, you know. It gets loud and crazy but that is part of the appeal. They play good music and sometimes have live music. It's $10 cover but that includes a beach pass. Their drinks are on the expensive side but sooo good. My favorites are piña colada, Miami vice, tiki tea and fresh squeezed. You gotta get an extra rum floater! The food is terrible so don't even bother. Also service takes forever if you want them to bring you drinks on the beach. I would just order from the bar. read more

Martell's Tiki Bar - My untouched drink - Tiki Bars Near Me - Point Pleasant, New Jersey

We were looking to enjoy a nice day on the beach and also get some sea food. The tiki bars signs for crabs, oysters, shrimp and lobster drew us in. Being able to drink on the beach was also a plus. We paid 10$ each to get in which included beach access and seemed reasonable. The drinks and food seemed a little overpriced, but what isn't? My frozen margarita's were good. I was happy about the paper straw but they use plastic cups, plastic eating utensils and styrofoam plates. (There are eco friendly alternatives) The coconut shrimp were really good and came served with a raspberry sauce. My date got the crab cakes sandwich, served with tartar and fries. I got a mahi sandwich, fries with a spicy Mayo and mangos. They we're both ok. There was a live band playing in the boardwalk area, there was a dance floor, a lot of tables and a few bars. As you go down the stairs, there's more seating a DJ. Unfortunately since this place is right on the beach and uses single use plastics, the beach area was dirty. I don't expect people to eat and drink and clean up after themselves, so it was disappointing to see the lack of awareness by Martell's especially since the micro plastics in the ocean were noticeable. read more

Found myself coming here at least every other week last summer. As the weather started to warm up we've returned and can't stop raving about it! Our last visit was with a party of 13. Everyone had such a lovely time. From the minute we checked in at the front everyone was highly friendly. It was great to see familiar faces such as this one bartender who makes by far the most amazing Bloody Marys ever!! The music was just right! The food is always delicious! The ambiance great! Keep it up Martell's! We love you! read more

Martell's Tiki Bar - LOL - Tiki Bars Near Me - Point Pleasant, New Jersey

We had a mediocre experience at Martell's Beach Club/Tiki Bar restaurant. It was mostly our fault for sitting on the lower level closest to the beach. There were not many people and we felt a little isolated. Service was fine. Somewhat friendly but not overly so. The food was standard fare. Our burgers, fries, chicken fingers and quesadilla were all reasonably good. The biggest disappointment was how everything was served compared to the price we paid. They gave us plastic utensils, drinks in plastic cups, salt, pepper, ketchup and mayo in packets and our meals in plastic baskets. It felt more like a take-out joint instead of sit down dining. We definitely preferred our experience at the Boardwalk Bar and Grill the previous week with real utensils, glasses and plates not to mention warm, friendly service, a better atmosphere, really delicious food and a lower price tag. read more

Beach bar in the style of true jersey is represented by Martell's. You are always guaranteed a good time here based on vibes, drinks and service. They run a well oiled machine with the staff and space. Beware: drinks here while may seem weak, they WILL hit you; recommend always having water on your side and taking beach breaks. I thoroughly enjoy the dedicated beach area that you can drink on and the showers to leave the sand. With plenty of bar spaces and seating there is ample space for drinking and relaxing. The bathroom lines during peak time like anywhere else are long but they really make an effort to keep things tidy and safe (but after all it's summer on the beach so keep your expectations realistic). Food is decent but I haven't tried enough of it to really give an opinion. I do wish they did a little better on music, a lot of classic hits but I wish the music was more of a party. Love coming here at any time but especially at opening to drink with friends! Our go tos? Frozen Miami Vices w a floater!!! And crowd is always a mix but generally a good vibe, people don't come here to be miserable. read more

You're coming here to drink with your friends on the beach. Parking can be tough, get there early. You have to wait online to pay cover before entering. The later you get there, the more crowded it is. Drinks definitely have gotten much more expensive compared to the last time I was here years ago. The bartender Jess seemed super irritated and not friendly from the second we sat down. They have a variety of drinks and they have food too high is good. We got wraps, underwhelming and $20 ! This place has also became m club like- they have a DJ now and smoke machine. I guess you can't blame them for trying, and they were packed. Also no AC in the bathroom, it was so hot. So many people were complaining when we went in. It's definitely a different vibe here. Not quiet and peaceful but more clubby and loud if that's what you're looking for. read more

This place is one of the best places to go to if your at the beach !! The burger tasted like it was right off a grill !! , I love hot dogs so had to have that bbq feel.. and she had a lobster roll which she thoroughly enjoyed !! The boardwalk has a ton of options but this place between the sit down spot in the front or if you're feeling frisky they have this outdoor club/lounge area in the back that gets pretty wild !! This is definitely a spot you don't wanna pass up !! read more

Nasty security guard & bartender. I rather give my money to another company because they were nasty.

I went here with my friends during a weekend trip. I came here twice, during lunch and at night. For lunch, I ordered a Lobster BLT, and I swear, it was the most delicious BLT I've ever ate; 10 out of 10. My friends both ordered a chicken wrap... I know - lame. The drink menu was also extensive and the drinks were very refreshing. I had a couple sugary mixed drinks, but don't remember which ones I ordered. Overall, the place has a great location and vibe. The night life with live music was so much fun. I can't wait to go back to Point Pleasant and visit Martell's read more

I came to the tiki bar today for a frozen strawberry margarita. It was delicious - I could see strawberry seeds which means they used real strawberries. 10/10 The live music was good too.

I'm not one to give bad reviews but Jess Jones (a bartender) left a terrible taste in my mouth. She is so biased when it comes to the service! She gives incredibly obvious way better service to her friends. My husband and I tipped her well over 20 percent on our first bill and she still treated us as if we weren't there and didn't matter. Coming from someone in the restaurant industry I am very offended and will never go out of my way to come back to her bar again. She acts like she hates her job and wishes she was somewhere else. Hate to break to her but you chose this not me. P.s. we payed for every drink on every bill and took care of her so well. Meanwhile, she is giving away the bar to her friends read more

We ordered Sushi, Quesadillas, Italian Sausage and Buffalo Boneless Chicken. Everything was on point. My favorite was the Sausage. One of the best Ive ever had because it was grilled and the bread was pressed. They just need to add a little more Onions and Peppers to that. I also loved how fresh everything was and didn't taste like it was sitting in a lamp all day. I recommend this place. read more
