Best Wildwood Bars

Looking for the best Wildwood bars to add a little kick to your summer vacation? Wildwood is your typical Jersey Shore beach town when the sun’s up, but it really kicks things up a notch when nighttime hits. Whether you’re looking for a dance floor, cheap drinks, fine seafood, or new friends, Wildwood’s got you covered.

Dog Tooth Bar and Grill
From the fish tacos to the ahi tuna “Dogtooth Bites” to the beer specials, you’ll fill up quickly here. The laid-back hot spot is great for lunch or a wild night out.

Fitzpatrick’s Crest Tavern
For an easygoing time, go where the locals go – Fitzpatrick’s. Enjoy lunch and dinner, or late-night snacks and cocktails. With a full menu, 18 beers on tap, and sports on TV, this bar is great for kicking back and relaxing after a day on the beach.

Beach Creek Oyster Bar and Grill
Not only is Beach Creek a great bar, with specialty martinis like the “Pineapple Upside Down Cake,” but it’s one of Wildwood’s very best fine dining restaurants. If you feel like a splurge, head here for dinner –whether you order the “Seafood a la Vodka” (scallops, crab meat, and jumbo shrimp) or the “Broiled Lobster Tail,” you really can’t lose.

Tuckers Pub
Hunker down here for the classic Irish pub experience, plus great pizza and crab cakes! The festive atmosphere keeps people returning here again and again.

Boardwalk Bar and Grill
Want some live music to go along with your food and drink? Then the Boardwalk Bar and Grill is one of your better bets. Friendly service, good food, and a fun nightlife are also great reasons to check it out.

Shamrock Café
If you’re simply looking for good beer and good company, this Irish pub is the place to be. And it’s been the place to be since the 1950s!

What makes these bars so great is they double as great Wildwood restaurants, too! So, what are you waiting for? Eat up and drink up!
