Best beach club in Positano! 5/5 stars! We had a blast on the main beach! Great ambiance & service. Definitely coming back!

Great beach bar. Awesome bartenders and awesome drinks. Right on the beach in Positano, you can't go wrong here. Seems to be a late night place for the younger folks but that's OK. You old people should go there and enjoy the fun. Francesco and Mikele are the best. The other guys, whose names I can't remember ( sorry guys) are also great. Fun atmosphere and a beautiful view. Tell them Kim and Tony sent you and they will take care of you.

My husband and I spent a full day in Positano exploring and trying all of the different aperol spritz options throughout the town. The Ocean Bar by far had our absolute favorite! The views of the beach weren't so bad to best either. Although the highest priced options, the atmosphere and taste made up for the price. Highly recommend!

Before having dinner across the walkway, my husband and I stopped by Ocean Bar for a quick drink or two. Beautiful spot along the beachfront. We hung out on the chairs facing the water instead of at the bar. It was a good chance to reconnect with each other after a tiring day of sightseeing. My husband ordered Coca Cola which was like US$8 for a tiny can. Most insane thing I've ever heard of. I got two fire spritzes because I thought they were so good. They had chili pepper italian liqueur, prosecco, and soda water. I think I exclusively had spritzes for the rest of my time in Italy because of the one here. It was lovely to watch the sun set on the horizon. The mood turned romantic as it got dark and the bar was lit by candles. I would have liked to sit at the bar next time. Then again, my husband was probably tired of practicing his Italian. On that note, service was quiet and classy. I appreciate that they let their guests have a moment to themselves.

Only place in Positano with super rude staff and exorbitantly overpriced tourist drinks. Locals get the real price, but it's tripled if you're traveling or don't speak Italian. 2 cocktails ran us $60 euro, which was more than our entire dinner with a bottle of wine- others were getting normal priced drinks that lived around the corner. Support other local restaurants! read more

A well-rehearsed scam scheme. The price list is hidden, and they present a false picture of the prices in every possible way. I witnessed two couples being consoled when shown the amount they owed on a mobile phone; I didn't understand what was happening until it happened to me. I'm upset that this scam ruined my impression of Italy. read more

But having spent my whole life in touristy places, I get the grift. If you're not too picky, you can get away with not spending too much here. The don't really upcharge for water so you can still get a big bottle for about 2 Euro. Sodas and other drinks are about 5-8 Euro. Same can be said about the food. A plain bread/Danish thing runs at about 4 Euro but get into sandwiches and you're looking at like 10. There is quite a bit of seating, even at the coveted outdoors area. Lucky for us, we were able to snag a 4 top right away and sat eating with a fantastic view of the beach and ocean.

For a meal that cost around $350, the experience was extremely disappointing. The restaurant manager, Rebecca, had a terrible attitude, made rude comments, and refused to move us to a table with a better view even though three tables were available. Pro tip: save your money and spend it somewhere else. The food is also extremely bad. My boyfriend and I were only able to take one bite of our dishes. McDonald's has better food and has better service than this place.
