They are a craft distillery + restaurant with a dog friendly outdoor patio. We grabbed a flight of four spirits and it is the perfect way to sample what they do best. Their menu also has cocktails, craft beer, wine, and mocktails. They serve classic American dishes and have a dedicated gluten‑free menu, which is a huge win for anyone with dietary needs. Parts of the patio are shaded, but the front area gets strong sun so keep an extra eye on your pup. The staff will bring out water and if you have one, bring a cooling mat. Great drinks and a dog friendly atmosphere that makes it easy to relax and hang out.

After a very satisfying lunch here, we returned for dinner…read more Warning! Make a reservation... especially if you want to come on a Friday or Saturday night, but really, just make one no matter the occasion or time. They get really busy here and for good reason. On an island without many good food options, this place stands out. Nice atmosphere, plenty of options on the lunch or dinner menus, good portions, quality food and nice cocktails too. At this point, we've tried lunch, dinner, bringing the dog, no dog, burgers, tacos, their classic wings, shrimp with crab imperial, crab cakes and several cocktails and mocktails. Service was excellent during both of our visits and I really felt like they cared. The waitress, the one who brought our cocktails, the one who brought our food... everyone just gave off that vibe and had a passion for making customers happy. I particularly liked the "New Fashioned" cocktail, which was like an Old Fashioned with some Grand Marnier. Really tasty. My shrimp crown imperial was okay, but those shrimp on top of the tasty crab really needed some more char. They're supposed to be grilled shrimp, but tasted more like steamed. Overall though, awesome place to eat in a town that has few good options. After two visits and trying this much of the menu, Longboard has definitely earned a spot in our Ocean City rotation.

Stopped here for lunch while on my latest venture to OC. We sat at the bar and watched preseason…read morefootball while taking in some food. I started with two soups - jerk chicken and rice soup and the cream of crab. The chicken was good and had long rice with plenty of spices but the soup came out very lukewarm. Granted I don't need it piping but it was somewhat concerning. Also - the chicken was a tenderloin rather than shredded or chopped which was kind of hard to negotiate with a spoon. The cream of crab continues to cement its place as the top 2 cream of crab soups in and around OC. I went with the longboard burger as my meal - served with pasta salad. Really like the pasta salad as a side being different. The burger was pretty skimpy on the special sauce that came with it, but I asked for a side of bleu cheese which was good. The bartender who served us was a younger guy with a beard and longer hair - very friendly and attentive to everyone. Again - nice chill vibe here - cool little built-in market area and a cool design.

Also, they have a fireplace, lots of windows, vaulted ceilings, water and a pretty view. It's a small place so I recommend reservations.

One of the great things about the wait is that the restaurant is butt up against a surf shop full of curiosities. I wound up purchasing my daughter the sweetest little bracelet with a ceramic goldfish charm. That made the wait time fly by, and before we knew it, we were getting called to a table in back. We were promptly seated and given a drink menu with many options. We were seated in an open air spot on the water at a pub table. The menu is diverse with many options for different tastes. We ordered the fries to share as an appetizer. It was an insane portion of hand cut potatoes loaded with all of the toppings indicated on the menu. Three of us decided to split two pizzas and an order of wings for dinner, and the other ordered sandwich. The food came out, piping hot, and it was delicious. The prices are reasonable, and the parking is easily accessible. Do not go to OC without checking out this cool spot.

It breaks my heart to give this review after the last 5 star experience earlier…read more I wanted another Ribeye, remembering how great the previous one was. This time, it was so thin that it was impossible to cook it medium rare. The server apologized for not being able to SEAR the steak. WHAT??? If you can't do it right take it off the menu. Took half home and threw it away. My wife had an unremarkable fish. We pay up for great food, but there are too many alternatives to endure the less than mediocre food we were served this trip. The previous dinner was as good as this was bad. I gave it a 3 instead of a 1 because the Server did everything he could to make up for the shortcomings. It'll be a while... and we live a mile away during the Summer. So sad!

Sydney G. served us very well. My total bill excluding gratuity was $100 for both of us. After three visits I learned this restaurant is consistent. We will return here again during any season for lunch or dinner off season or on season.
