Brisket Sandwich

“❤️ Overview:
Came here in the late afternoon with a group of people and got two tables with umbrellas luckily! We got drinks, got food from the food trucks, and chatted! Super fun atmosphere with the live music and of course being on the beach. It was nice to be able to walk around in the sand with no shoes.

We decided to drive from the city, but if you don’t have a car or want to drive, you can take the Seastreak ferry straight to the Sandbox! Which is super convenient and neat!

❤️What was ordered:
FOOD: Connecticut lobster rolls and clam chowder from Cousin’s food truck

DRINKS: Cocktails and beer

❤️Stand outs:

❤️Would I come back/recommend:
Yes - I would come back
Yes - I would recommend“

The tiki bar is an enclosed building with temperature controls and oceanfront views! There is also outdoor seating on the deck. They offer a food menu and a full bar, and will bring a doggie bowl out if you need one! Take a stroll on the private beach with your pup and just have a chill day watching the game on their TVs.“
