Located on Beach Haven’s main drag, The Marlin Restaurant & Bar offers fine dining alongside a massive bar that’s perfect for happy hour, watching an evening sporting event, or partying late into the night. Open seven days per week, the restaurant is a great place for large parties to share local seafood or wood-fired pizzas. It also offers burgers and pastas, making it appealing to most palettes.

Happy hour goes from 4pm to 6pm daily, so it’s a great place to catch the game without breaking the bank. There is no cocktail menu to speak of, but the bar is filled with basically any type of beverage you could be looking for. The bartenders are knowledgeable and can mix up just about anything you’re looking to sip. A number of beers are available on tap as well as in cans, and there are a variety of wines perfect for pairing with food or just for sipping along the wood bar.

On Wednesday nights, The Marlin hosts a beer pong tournament, making it the ideal hang out for young professionals or college students looking to get into the competitive spirit. Friday and Saturday nights feature live music or DJs and the place gets packed. The crowd ranges in age, but not in spirit, as just about everyone is looking to have a wild time. There is also a Sunday happy hour that features cheap drinks, helping to prepare visitors for the long week ahead.

If you’re looking for a fine seafood dinner, a place to catch the game while sipping drinks, or for a wild Wednesday, Friday, or Saturday night, The Marlin’s location along L.B.I.’s main avenue makes it an easily accessible starting point or a great place to wrap up a long night.
