Probably the most popular bar on the shore. During the weekends and always during the summer, this place is a haven for drunken youngsters college-age-to-mid-30s looking for a good time, and it is always a grand party. You may even be able to find the man or woman of your dreams in here, at least for the night. DJ spins top 40 music. Friday nights feature domestic beer and well drinks for $1.50 and free bar food from 5pm to Midnight. Beware: during the summer the main bar room gets packed; we are talking packed like a huge sardine can, shoulder-to-shoulder! Fortunately, there are four very different rooms and an outside patio (seasonal). Simple décor, simple fun. If the place gets too crowded downstairs, there's most likely refuge somewhere upstairs. Don’t forget the kitchen serves hearty servings of beef and chicken, and a huge crab cake. Open daily from 11am-‘til. Tavern open noon - 4 am. (Cash only). Bender rating: 4.5
