7 Best Pubs near Ocean Pines

“First time customers for the wife and me. Best restaurant I’ve been to in years. Great food , service and atmosphere . I had the stuffed salmon with crab imperial and the wife had the broiled crab cake . I’m very picky when it comes to salmon but it was done to perfection. Must say probably the best I’ve ever had. My wife’s crab cake was excellent as well. Definitely a place we will be back again and again.“

“True Score: 4.25 Stars Might be the best bar in Ocean City Harbor Inn is the very picture of a "hole-in-the-wall" bar. Located on the bayside of Somerset Street, it's easy to miss if passed by on a night when jukebox tunes aren't emanating from the inside, although that isn't very often. This is a must stop if you're in Ocean City if you're a bar person like myself. Thanks“

“We are out-of-towners and chose this restaurant because it was across the street from our hotel and we could order takeout online. We placed our order and shortly after the manager or owner called apologizing that they were out of an item we ordered online. (They were extremely busy and couldn't turn off online ordering). He offered me to order whatever I wanted to make things right, I asked for an app and desert. He even offered a drink on the house. When my husband picked up the food he said everyone there was so nice. Our food was incredible, the breading on the fried food was delicious and crispy, the salad was fresh, and the mozzarella sticks were gigantic and so good. We will definitely return to this restaurant the next time we are back in Ocean City!“

“I was there for dinner and drinks for a large family gathering last night. The manager Bobby did an amazing job accommodating us and making sure that we were able to be seated in the same section. Our server, Shelby took excellent care of us and we had an amazing experience. The food and the drinks were all great. Highly recommend.“

“Visiting from Baltimore for a few days and stopped in on a Monday night a little after 10. I was surprised (in a good way) that there was a decent sized crowd because it’s offseason, but it was karaoke night so I’m assuming most of the crowd were regulars (also a good sign). The vibe was great, the food was really good, and the bartenders were fantastic. I’m a bartender as well and I usually don’t say anything about it when I go out because I’m not trying to get special treatment, but I’ve been in the industry for almost 11 years now so I do know good service when I see/experience it. Mackenzie, Collin, and “Reba” as they called him were all amazing. They moved with speed and efficiency which isn’t always easy in a bar that size, and they also did it while laughing and engaging with customers. I was seriously impressed, I didn’t see anyone waiting long or complaining about anything either. I’m by myself on this trip so I was hoping I would find a cool little spot to hangout at and I found that at Pickles. I would definitely recommend!As for the food, I got the mozzarella sticks and they were delicious. Was a little disappointed that there were only 3 but they’re a good size so it’s like the equivalent of 6 short ones. I also ordered wings because they were half-priced on Monday and they were really good as well. Perfect size and cooked well“

“Kirby's Pub in Ocean City is a haven for those seeking a relaxed atmosphere paired with outstanding food. The steamed shrimp and wings are a definite highlight--flavorful and addictive! Jill and Mark are the heart of this place, effortlessly juggling customer care and entertainment, making every visit memorable. This is THE spot to unwind by the beach, indulge in fantastic food, and soak in the vibrant yet laid-back vibes. A must-visit for anyone in search of a perfect hangout spot!“

“We had a good dinner on Friday Night's Shrimp Night...very good shrimp and value. My wife had the AYCE Steamed Shrimp deal which comes with a side (she elected a Caesar Salad) and I enjoyed my Single Crab Cake and 1/2 lb Steamed Shrimp. Our server was friendly but had too many tables and was MIA at times. Our food came out a bit mixed up at times (wrong table, order, etc) but all was good. Having a Players' Card gains you an extra 10% discount on the bill, very nice!“
