Only in Ocean City: Casual Comfort and Class at Longboard Café
By Jill DentonJuly 8, 20193 min read
The beachy bar at Longboard Cafe.
Their menu is an eclectic mix of traditional tavern food, fresh seafood and rich entrees. Vach was more than happy to share some Longboard secrets, including the fact that their recipes are proprietary, their fish is delivered sometimes multiple times per day and their wings are frequent contest winners. While those around you will likely order one of their amazingly massive burgers or their freshly-made tacos, Vach also recommends their signature Go Fish special, which offers their freshest fish prepared in one of four ways, however you choose.
Their Wrinkled Green Beans and Asparagus Addiction will please your vegetarian tablemates, as will the Mexican Street Corn. And gluten-free folks have an abundance of choices including Salad Stuffed Avocado, Crab Tacos and Crispy Duck. In fact, I think you’ll be hard pressed to find a duck dinner elsewhere in town, gluten-free or otherwise.
In addition to indoor and outdoor rustic, sea-themed seating areas, there is also a barroom ready to entertain you. Draft beer offerings are local, including choices from Burley Oak, Dogfish Head and EVO. If you prefer a mixed drink, there are custom cocktails on the menu too, including Coconut Margaritas, Spiked Lemonades and a frozen newfound friend called Havana Banana. If you’re choosing wine to complement your entrée, their staff is knowledgeable and helpful in finding your perfect match from their extensive list.
Longboard Café is the recipient of multiple awards from TripAdvisor, including induction into their Hall of Fame. It’s also earned high marks from over 300 reviewers on Yelp. Multiple visits during a single OC vacation also shows how addictive their flavors are and how their service sets them apart.
Longboard is open all year and their Sunday Brunch is a fabulous option for off-season celebrating as well.
If you’re looking for a recommendation, grab a Waimea Burger and a Bikini-Tini, tuck in and enjoy the Ocean City sunshine.
