This eatery is a hidden gem in Oak Bluffs! We usually spend at least one day on Martha's Vineyard during our stay in Chatham MA but this is the first time we tried Offshore Ale! So glad we found it ... on a very calm street... close to the park very little car traffic going by the outdoor patio! The staff greeted us warmly... welcomed our pup and seated us within minutes! A server greeted us instantly and took our drink order and even asked if we needed a nice fresh bowl of water for our puppy!! Extra Points just for acknowledging the fur-babies!! The lunch menu has an exceptional selection of seafood, fish, chicken and even a few beef dishes!! We ordered and the food was out hot and fresh within 10 minutes!! They even grilled a plain /no salt breast of chicken for our puppy too! Everything was delicious!! The fries that accompanied the sandwiches were out of this world! Usually never finish even half our fries but these were so good we finished one small bucket and nearly all of the second !! Definitely worth a try - casual, relaxing and delicious!! read more

This is what it's all about!! Great good! Great service! An amazing vibe. The interior is very welcoming, and the team of workers are too! I got a chance to talk with Mrs. Sue and you can tell she loves what she does. She's truly curated an experience. The owners lead by example. They are truly hands on to make sure you have excellent, fresh, hot, flavorful food and quick and friendly service. The fresh cut fries were definitely not out of bag! You can tell by the freshness ! I'm so glad I stopped by here. You can truly tell this is a family restaurant. Operated by love and you can feel it when you walk in! It was so good I had to come back! The ribs were so tender! Fall off the bone! Great flavor! The potato au gratin was crispy and good! The hot honey wings were amazing!! The flavor was perfect, no notes! I love this place! read more

If you're looking for your standard pub in Oak Bluff, this is the place. They get you seated quickly and offer great service. Good selection of craft beers on tap and good cocktail menu. They have a wood fired oven and make very good thin crust pizza. If you come here, you must try the pizza as that in my opinion was the best thing there. read more

I walked in and felt good. Fun decor, with patches from all the states. Good ambiance and friendly service. Home brewed beer, rotating seasonal ones as well. Ordered the clam chowder and it came piping hot. Absolutely delicious, one of the better ones on the island. The tavern burger was good. A bit overcooked but flavors pulled through. Potato pizza? Never had. I decided to try it and phew, was it heavy. It was tasty tho! The two of us couldn't finish it. The beers were amazing. I had two beers, blueberry and cider. WOW. If you like beer, come here. Brewed extremely well, deep in flavor and surprisingly high alcohol content for something so sweet. read more

We were looking forward to their wood fire pizza. It was just Ok. We were seated and then went to order the pizza and the waiter said there was something wrong with the oven. We were about to leave and he came back and said it was working. I think the hostess should have told us before we were seated read more

Adorable!!! inside this restaurant makes me feel like I just got off a three month fishing excursion and I'm finally getting a brewski with my Bros. I felt like a true New Englander inside of this establishment. Our bartender was so kind and the espresso martini was fab! I imagine in the summer it's probably hard to get a table here because it's not very big and it's right in the heart of the shopping area of OB! read more

The food was fantastic. Stuffed salmon was amazing. Meat livers pizza also good. The beer was lovely with diverse options. Good service.

Stopped in for lunch before heading to the beach! The chips and guac was the perfect starter on a warm summer day sitting outside. The lobster roll was also amazing! Lots of beer and drink options, I wasn't a fan of the shandy cocktail I ordered but the delicious food and great service made up for it! read more

Amazing food and beer. I didn't see much of the inside because the weather outside was amazing, and their patio was very enjoyable. We were looking for something refreshing after a hot beach day, and they provided everything we needed. The guacamole was some of the most flavorful I've had. The lobster roll was massive and delicious (though I would probably omit the red onion next time). Their saison also had a ton of flavor and I would've loved to have a few while sitting on the beach! read more

This was an unexpected gem! We hadn't planned to stop here but with a quick search Offshore Ale looked like a good choice for lunch and wow am I glad we stopped! We ordered a flight of beers and cider and all were great, out of what we tried hubby did select one to get a glass. The pizza was delicious really phenomenal toppings and crust. The BEST part though was the clam chowder. I tried clam chowder at 5 different places during our trip and Offshore Ale had the best clam chowder out of all the ones I tried. Friendly staff and service was nice. It was crowded and hard to walk in, they really pack the people in but we sat at a window and it was cozy for two. Definitely recommend. read more

We had a perfect lunch here in late September on a picture perfect day! Being outside surrounded by gorgeous flowers made it seem like we weren't looking at a parking lot with cars constantly passing inches from us. My 80yr old mom and I spent the day exploring and were in search of an amazing lobster roll, we found it here! Outdoor seating was ideal and our server was attentive. I had a creative cocktail and we shared lunch and dessert. The lobster roll was pretty epic actually and the fries a perfect compliment. Chocolate cake finished off our amazing lunch and we wandered off to find the gingerbread houses not far away. Only a water view would have made this better, but the lobster roll was so good I'm glad we didn't pick a spot with a view. read more

I didn't eat anything too amazing today, but the burger was pretty good, and others in our group enjoyed their meals. It's a nice restaurant to hang out in. They brew their own beers here, so the selection is limited--make sure to check out your options beforehand. Service was fine and quick. read more

Service was the only decent thing! The pizza was one of the worst we've had, just tasted too fake. We also got wings that were over cooked. Clam chowder that tasted very mediocre. Pretty much DO NOT recommend it. Not sure how it's a 4*??? read more

This place was awesome! We sat outside and shared a few items and got a flight of beer. Our server was attentive and excellent. Local Martha's Vineyard Oysters - 10/10 Brie with pesto and roasted Garlic: 10/10 Potato Pizza - 10/10. I wasn't sure about this but had never seen this in a menu before so I had to try it. So good! One slice is all you need. read more

I don't know why everyone isn't raving about this place. One of the best pizzas I've ever had. Sure, you don't think of pizza when you think MV, but the BBQ chicken pizza we had here was amazing. I usually think chicken on pizza is dry and rubbery, but this chicken was perfectly moist. The toppings were yummy, and the sauce was very flavorful. The crust had a nice crunch. The beer selection is good. Plus, there's a full bar and wine options. Something for everyone. Our service was friendly and attentive even on a busy night. The checkin process was easy. They take your name and number, then text you a link to track your progress on the waitlist. They had live music on the Thursday night at 7 when we were there. It was fun music - loud, but not unbearable. A few people were dancing even though the place is small. Highly recommend. Expect a wait if you go at prime time. read more

We really enjoyed our visit to Offshore ale! We remembered visiting this restaurant a couple years ago because I was able to order a gluten free lobster roll, and we were on the search for good gluten free options again. We weren't disappointed. We sat outside before it got too busy, and it was great weather. Our server was great, she was really kind and prompt. For an appetizer we ordered a shrimp salad, which was a nice size, although I wish there were a couple more shrimp. For our meals, we ordered the ribs and gluten free lobster roll. The ribs were fantastic! We are picky rib eaters because we think our at home ribs are so good, but these were great. The ribs were meaty and fall off the bone tender. The sauce was good and so was the coleslaw. The gluten free bread was nice and soft and held up pretty well. I do think you get less meat with the gluten free roll since it's smaller than a regular roll, but the roll was still good. The fries were also great. Overall, the visit was great and we plan to visit again. read more

Corner restaurant with a nautical theme. Very homey with a really nice fireplace. Greeted at the door and taken to a nice table by the fire. They have a really nice bar. Ordered their homemade clam chowder. Really fresh and creamy. Good taste nicely spiced. Also ordered a Brick oven Margherita pizza. Watched it being made and it came out hot and fresh. The waiters were nice took our order quickly and delivered drinks and food fast. Nice tribute to firefighters with patches on the wall. read more

Most importantly, the food is awesome. I have tried almost everything on the menu and I've enjoyed all of it. The beer is also excellent and I have tried just about all of that. I like the stout when available the service is outstanding. The owners truly care about this ale house and it shows through to the staff who are all rockstars. They are friendly and efficient, even when it gets very busy and hectic. They go above and beyond the call of duty and are very willing to answer any questions you may have. The ambience is very comfortable and very fitting for Vineyard. The location is always spotlessly cleans read more

While waiting for our lunch reservations we decided to kill some time here and I'm glad we did! Everyone at the bar was awesome - bartender was great too. I had their blueberry ale and it was so good!! Great flavor and crushable; perfect for a nice summer day. We also ordered the pretzel and the beer cheese was some of the best I've ever had! I wish we could have spent more time here but I really enjoyed the time we did. read more

This review is cumulative based on 7 visits over the course of 1 month mid May to mid June. Offshore has the best hamburgers. I prefer a medium rare burger and each of my visits the burger was cooked to perfection. I'm a stickler for the proper doneness and they mastered it. The speed of service was always fast and the staff mostly very polite, sometimes more focused on tasks than friendliness but that's a Midwestern thing. Dave the manager went above and beyond to find.me a tshirt before I departed the island. This place is a gem . read more

We stopped here on a Saturday evening, apparently unaware that it was the Kentucky Derby so the place was quite crowded. Our wait was about an hour but the service, food, and beer made up for it. My wife had the Portuguese fisherman's stew (excellent) and my son and I shared the Meat Lovers Pizza. The pizza was excellent. We're not locals but we chatted with a couple who claim that this is their go to spot as it is open all year and insistently good food and service. If we return to the island, we'll be back! read more

If you are in need of some relief from the heat, pop inside to the nicely air conditioned seating inside the ale co. They also provide a good-sized patio. This is a great spot to relax and have a pint or flight (in picture). Our server was great. He had a great sense of humor and cracked a few jokes with us. While we were there, my husband tried the clam chowder and absolutely loved it. It was so nice to get off our feet for a little bit from walking around the town and getting some relaxation while enjoying a good beer. read more

My friends and I stopped by here twice on our day trip to MV. Milica was our server and she was wonderful. Very attentive and checked on us from time to time. The food was delicious! Drinks were good as well. I had the bbq wings. They were crispy yet bbq-y. My husband loved his Cuban sandwich and fries. My friends had the burger and lobster roll and loved them. I had ordered the spicy margarita, my husband had the island punch, my friend had one of the ales, and a lemonade. I swapped with my husband and Milica noticed! She asked if I didn't like that drink. I didn't mind it but my husband and I liked each other's drink more so we swapped. Overall, a great experience. We came back later in the day for more drinks before the ferry. I got the paloma. It was good but not super strong. Would 100% come back in the future. read more

We visited just before taking the last ferry back to the mainland to conclude our few day MV getaway. There was legit one high top available at the time of our arrival but we were asked to step to the side for a few minutes while it was prepared. It was right next to the host station, the open entrance door, and what seemed to be a main corridor between different parts of the restaurant. It wasn't the most ideal location but we were grateful to not have to wait long. Because we needed to drive home, we had to be conservative with our beer drinking. GF and I both sampled one of Offshore's brews which were enjoyable. We went hard with the appetizers and ordered the grilled brie and buffalo cauliflower. To top everything off, we settled on the roma pizza. The cauliflower was so good. I adored the breading which was so crisp. There wasn't much buffalo to the flavor of the actual cauliflower but they provided hot sauce and bleu cheese dressing in which to dip. I used a sequential dip strategy and enjoyed it tremendously. The grilled brie was a bit disappointing but A for offering something unique. It wasn't as flavorful as I would have liked but I appreciated the roasted garlic cloves that I absolutely ate smeared onto the cheese and bread. This was actually better when we ate it at home later as leftovers. I only got down a slice of the cheese pizza because I was full by the time it arrived. It was just ok, nothing to write home about. Our waiter was friendly but left us hanging a bit at the end. Someone else who was either the owner or the manager noticed how cold I was and offered to the close the entrance door which was such a nice gesture and much appreciated. I think some of their food is hit or miss but I would definitely stop in again to sample more of the beers and try some more of their food. read more

Offshore Ale Co. Is a brewery and a restaurant combo with a wide variety of food on their menu. I was there with a party of 7 and we were seated pretty quick.

I had a lobster roll with a side of fries, Other meals for our table were 2 different pizzas, quesadilla, salad, and chicken tenders with fries. Overall, the food and drinks were good and the service was quick. The atmosphere was nice. I will definitely come back again the next time I'm on the island. read more

Chowder was amazing! Lobster roll had plenty of meat! We substituted the fries out for the salad and it was plentiful with a light vinaigrette dressing. Burger was amazing. Definitely greasy and artery-clogging, oh so good. The fries taste a bit like Five Guys fries, which I love. All in all, solid meal. read more

Always one of our stops when we visit the island. This week the staff was super accommodating and let us sit at an outside table because we had our small dog with us. The staff was so great. It was chilly out there and they were so gracious to accommodate us. The waitress provided great service and someone else swooped in and gave our dog a bowl of water. Very efficient and thoughtful service. We thoroughly enjoyed both our fish sandwich and turkey meatloaf and the double IPA was tremendous. I have never had a bad beer there. Great beer, cozy food, super kind staff. We will keep coming back and highly recommend! read more

The Tuna bowl was phenomenal. It was also extremely big, could have been shared. The rice cake, avocado and pineapple went well with the tuna and sauce. As for the beers, nothing too exciting or different on the menu but it was nice to go to a local brewery. read more

My sister, who lives in Edgartown, brought me to Offshore Ale and all the raving before we got there was no exaggeration. We came in on a Thursday at 4:30 and we were seated right away in a corner that was quiet enough to talk but still enjoy people watching and eavesdropping. It's clear that this is a place that locals like to visit so it had a great feel to it. We got the mussels as an appetizer and they were fabulous, with just the right amount of seasoning. The bread that came along with it was amazing and if I hadn't been with my fit-conscious sister, I would have put a loaf in my purse and asked for another. I finally decided on the chicken with Brussel sprouts and mashed potatoes. The chicken had a nice flavor to start but the underside was slightly overcooked, making it tough. I would have trimmed down the Brussel sprouts (maybe eliminating the stem) because they were also tough. Everyone does good mashed potatoes in my book so YAY on them! Now I am a HUGE fan of butter, but I think I would have been happy with half of what was drizzled over my dinner. IMO, I think it would have been too much for anyone. This establishment clearly has a following and other great food, so maybe it was just a fluke. My sister got the Portuguese Fisherman's Stew and I could tell that she loved it but I think the photo says it all. It is a beautiful dish that is flavorful with just the right (?), that is just as good the next day. I would suggest though that to-go liquid leftovers be packaged/wrapped better. Ours was sent home in a foil container that leaked into the paper bag which ripped open, spilling much of the leftover broth and some of the mussels all along her garden path which was dark and mosquitoey. I also got stung by a bee while waiting for her to clean up the mess. All of this completely evened out the next evening when we heated up the order of ***Fish and Chips*** we ordered to-go for the sole purpose of eating it at home Friday night...my last night on this beautiful island. The fish and chips were exactly what I was hoping for in that type of dish. The batter was golden and crispy and the fish inside was light and fluffy. Other than shellfish, I'm not a huge other fish fan but I had a feeling this was going to be good and I was not disappointed. It was the best last-night dinner ever. read more
