Ale House is located on Cookman Ave. My wife did suggest this area and mentioned that after sunset, you don't need to go back after visiting the beach & Boardwalk. Cookman Ave is the street where all the fun is. It is a popular shopping and dining street in town. I ventured there this past weekend to see what the buzz was about. Indeed it's worth visiting this. We were strolling and saw this Restaurant. I wanted to sit outside so put our name on the waiting list and wandered on the street. They have many options in beer, alcohol, and fun Fact: they are the only bar in town with Tito's Vodka on tap. Inside: it's more like buffalo wild wings type with more vibe, and feels alive. It is known for a sports bar with 40 televisions featuring every major sports channel. We ordered Shrimp Tacos: the base should be warm, I understand it was crowded, but when it came to the table, it was already cold. One bite and I can feel, the tortilla or soft taco is not warm and it ruins the food. The shrimp was cooked, and the sauce was good too, but overall 3/5 SoCal Turkey Burger: The size was disappointing, it's more like Wendy's burger size, but taste-wise- it was good. Every item comes with chips, but you can replace them with fries for $2 extra - my burger was good (nothing extraordinary though)- 3.5/5 Overall, the vibe was super cool, I was sitting outside and enjoying nice warm weather- that was a good feeling. service can be improved though (it was on the slower side, had to wait for simple asks) BTW- This is paw friendly and saw many fur friends sitting outside. They have a menu for pets too. read more
