About Mug & Mallet

Mug & Mallet is a popular spot in Ocean City, known for its affordable prices, cozy, laid-back atmosphere, and fresh seafood options such as shrimp, crabs, oysters, scallops, and soft shell crab. Guests often enjoy the steamed shrimp and crabs, and the restaurant is one of the few places near the end of the boardwalk where Maryland crab can be found. The restaurant also offers a great selection of drinks and is appreciated for its friendly staff and divey feel. Many visitors praise the crabless cake sandwich, describing it as crispy and delicious, with fries and sauce that complement it well. The seafood is generally fresh and fairly priced for a boardwalk location, with plenty of food to share in steamer pots. Mug & Mallet is a favorite for those seeking a local, non-touristy dining experience with a good variety of seafood and drinks. It also offers a wonderful surprise vegan dinner of “fish” and chips and fried "fish" tacos. The vegan crab cake sandwich with homemade remoulade is well made and very tasty. Guests enjoyed the lobsters, shrimp, clams and corn on the cob. While some guests note that seating can be limited and the metal chairs are not comfortable, the overall experience is positive.
