22 Best Bars near Avalon

“The refreshed interior looked great & the place was packed — nice to see & great for the hardworking owners. There was a private event of 100 upstairs, sports on every TV and Quizzo game going on downstairs, plus regular dinner seating. The staff was unable to keep up with the crush even with the owner contributing at every position. We had to ask several times for missing courses, but they ultimately did deliver. Once received the food was good.“

“Good food, good beer. Best Brussels sprouts ever!“

“Nice open space to spend time with family and friends. Casual. Inside and outside seating. Drinks are a little pricey (but it's Avalon) and there is a 2hr parking limit (street meters). We had finger food and drinks and had a great time sitting at the humongous and beautiful bar.“

“Came here with my dog and sat outside. Leanna P was my server and she was attentive and friendly. Got the ahi tuna wrap and wings. Both were good. Wings were big and crispy and delicious! They even put the Phillies game on for me out there. Great place! Good food! Friendly staff!“

“Been going to this pub a long time. Had a lot of good memories and would like to have some more before I'm gone. Always liked the Irish Meatloaf. Lots of other good food. This place has also helped me feel better during some bad times and sad moments. Would recommend this place highly to anyone! Here's to looking forward to my next visit there!!!!!“

“We stayed here from Aug 30-Sept 1 2024. Absolutely an amazing stay. I would say this hotel is not one you stay in if you’re there for a whole week and expect to live in your room but for us it was everything we needed at a fantastic price. The room was clean, comfortable, updated and all around great. The staff, let me tell You how wonderful they are, we needed to check in later they said “okay we got it” no issues, our room was cleaned and refreshed within an hour of us being out the door and back from the store. We asked for a later check out and they had no issue giving us an extra hour. They were beyond accommodating when we needed assistance the day we checked out and even offered to let us use the accommodations they provide for guests. We will be coming back and staying here again.“

“Amazing bartenders! Hannah and Kaitlyn are outstanding!“

“The crushers were very refreshing after a warm day and the ‘U peel shrimp’ were EXCELLENT (a half pound is plenty for two people). The crab cakes were also delicious and decent portions. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend.“

“I've eaten here a number of times over the years and thankfully it's stayed exactly the same every time I've been in. The portions are amazing and the prices, very reasonable! It's absolutely one of the very few places you can go here on the island and be able to spend $25 and get lunch for 2 and leave the waitress a healthy tip. My wife and my favorite is their Chicken Caesar Salad. The lettuce always has a nice fresh crunch to it the chicken is cooked perfectly and I've never had a time it was ever dry here. The Caesar comes with dressing on it and it's always been just the right amount in my taste, never too much but never have I wanted to ask for more... The atmosphere is wonderful both inside and out at the garage bar where because I have a love for outdoor dining I tend to sit more often. I never have felt like we were forgotten or needed to request anything while out there. Every time I've eaten in either part of the restaurant everyone, from the hostess, to the waitress, to even the bussers have never been anything but polite and helpful with smiles on their faces and always a helpful word when stumped on what to get from the menu! Always a win both on and off season and always somewhere I stop when I'm in town!!“

“Great place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“There aren’t enough words to explain how amazing this place is! If you love seafood….GO NOW!“

“My wife and I really enjoyed dinner. We had fish tacos that were absolutely fantastic.“

“From out of town and we had 16 people in to eat. Food came out timely, drinks were made quickly and everything was delicious. Alaina and Jules went out of their way on a Friday night to help me locate a receipt (remotely) so I could turn it in for reimbursement. Above and beyond on the service!“

“Great food and drinks! Service has always been friendly and you never feel rushed.“

“If it was possible to give this place more stars, I would. This is the best establishment in Sea Isle City with awesome drinks, service, and the food is AMAZING (try the penne a la vodka in the off season - it’s unreal)! We always get incredible service from Sergio the waiter and look forward to seeing him every time we are down the shore. We’ve also had a great experience with Nicole, George, Colin, and all the other bartenders. All around an amazing experience!!! PS Lenny for Mayor!!!“

“This was our third experience dining at SAX, and each time has been wonderful! The waitstaff are always friendly and very accommodating; and the food is exceptional. In warmer months they offer outdoor dining with a fabulous view of the sunset.“
