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.

Fantastic location to have a bevy and eat some Maryland blue crabs. Right on the boardwalk hard to beat the location.
Giuseppe was very attentive, the food was great, and the drinks were made perfectly!
Food was great and came out fast.

Service was even better, the guy that seemed like the manager was pretty funny and helpful when the rain came in and we were outside.

He even started making ponchos for everyone from trash bags.

The server was great, he didn’t expect us to finish eating our food with the amount we ordered and was surprised when he came back and we were ordering more food.
