50 Best Bars near Bay Shore

“We rented out the restaurant for the evening for a wedding elopement celebration. The bartenders were absolutely amazing and so on point! The food was not bite-size but real burgers and sandwiches and so delicious. The DJ was added onto the party package by the restaurant and people danced all night. Everything was turned key I didn’t have to worry about anything at all it was such a fun night and such a beautiful location because it was decorated for the holidays. It comfortably fit 50 people! I wish I could throw the party all over again highly recommend this spot for a private event!!“

“You know that pub that never fails, that pub that always greets you with a smile that comes from the heart rather than the intention of taking your money, that pub that watches your back if you come in alone, that pub that stands up for female comfort and security during a night out, that pub that leaves you with dream like memorable moments when your week has been nothing but a nightmare. Well, to put it simply, this is that pub.“

“One of the best, if not the best restaurant in Bay Shore, period! The food is fabulous and the portions are tremendous. Try it for yourself and I bet you'll agree. Order the pork chop and see if you can finish it!“

“My recent dining experience at this venue was truly delightful. The calamari was the best I have ever had, and it was followed by an impressive sirloin and a sesame tuna steak that was cooked just right. I was so engrossed in savoring the meal that I didn't even think to take any pictures.“

“If you want the freshest , best seafood on the south shore this is your spot! Nothing compares to the food and the family owned business that.

Good-natured banter all around.As a woman in a predominantly male bar, I was included in the conversation, and had a great time.

“I wish we took pictures but we devoured everything as soon as it dropped ? I celebrated 1 year w my love, the same place we had our 1st date, last night and absolutely everything was so incredible. The service and ambiance was beautifully on point. We ordered the calamari special and that sauce I could have drank; basically did. We also had the Brussels (I’m obsessed), crab bites, bang bang shrimp and pesto gnocchi. The order and timing in which every plate was dropped really let us both enjoy and dive into what our palettes were experiencing with each dish. What a beautiful experience. We were supposed to go to Prime in Huntington but are trying to cut back w the spending. We were absolutely not disappointed and I think left more satisfied than if we had gone for steaks. Thank you for a beautiful evening with out-of-this-world culinary creations. We will absolutely be coming back here ASAP. And the bathrooms were clean!!! ??????“

“Working with “The Wharf” has exceeded our expectations.
The staff and management has been incredibly accommodating, not just the day of the event, but also during the planning process.
They did not miss a detail.
The space is beautiful, the food was delicious.

The friendliness of the staff has been complimented by many of them.
We highly recommend The Wharf!!

“A very welcome addition to the Ocean Beach Restaurant and Bar scene. Appreciated. Great apps. Nice lunch and dinner menu. Couldn't be more central location, directly across from the ferry basin. Chow down and have a cocktail as you watch the ferries come and go. THERE'S ALWAYS ANOTHER FERRY!“
