Margate's streets are lined with small restaurants and delis that offer some tasty cuisine. The prices usually sit within the moderate range because of the typically casual atmosphere. Here are reviews of some of the more popular restaurants in Margate 

Maloney's Restaurant
23 S. Washington Avenue
Margate, NJ 08402
609-823-7858
FAX 609-823-9366
Damon Name, Proprietor
Hearty servings of beef, chicken and seafood. Lunch and dinner served seven days, breakfast on weekends. Beef and beer room and an outside bar are available. Maloney’s is also known for its fantastic crab cakes; these things are huge! Separated into two levels, Maloney’s has a nice atmosphere upstairs, and the downstairs serves as an affectionately raunchy tavern. The tavern gets pretty crazy with drunken youngsters – a mix of locals and tourists alike - during the weekends and almost every night during the summer. Located just a block away from the beach on Margate’s most popular street, Maloney’s is a great place to eat and then party. Open daily from 11 am--till. Tavern open noon - 4 am.

Omar's
223 N. Washington Ave.

Margate, NJ 08402

(609) 822-6627. 

Once the most happening joint in the area for live music, Omar’s unfortunately doesn’t see the crowds it used to as it has downsized its welcoming of local bands. Omar’s serves good pub fare in large portions and usually has a buffet set out during the evening hours on weekends. This is a sit-at-the-bar-and-eat type of place. Specializes in big sandwiches, appetizers and desserts. Open from 5pm-2am Sunday-Thursday, and 5pm-4am Friday & Saturday. Bender rating: 2
