    Eggplant Burrata
    Samantha C.

    Long time span between seeing old friends calls for libations. That's what made us pick Speakeasy, which is minutes away from where an old friend lives. When she suggested this spot, I was all for trying it. We started on the bar side, where we tried happy hour specials with summer seasonal (say that five times fast) drinks. Forgive me because I don't remember what the cocktails were called, and they aren't on their website, but they weren't half bad. The first one was a bit tough to drink with all the peach pulp coming through the straw. It was a vodka based drink and what I got was good, but after a while it just became a bit difficult. I switched to a gin based drink which was very refreshing. After a drink at the bar we decide we were hungrier than we realized and parked ourselves at a table on the restaurant side. We got started with the Giant Pretzel. The cheese sauce that came with it was ok, but the winner here was the mustard dipping sauce for sure. The pretzel wasn't half bad and came out piping hot. For my meal I ordered the Crispy Eggplant Burrata. The sandwich would have been better, in my opinion, if the eggplant was sliced thinner. The sandwich tasted good but the thick slices of eggplant made it a bit difficult to eat. All in all a good spot to chill for a drink or a decent meal. Highly recommended for sure!

    Kids chicken fingers

    Found this spot after looking for a kid friendly resturant after the beach. Speakeasy was perfect. Was sat outside and it was just the right amount of seating. They had these cute high top tables with bright yellow chairs. They had a kids menu that had a variety of items. The kids ordered 123 and us adults had to figure out what to get..there were some good choices. We ended up choosing a round of things and we were very satisfied. The mac and cheese was a hit, loved the wing sampler it was crispy and flavorful..my fav was the teriyaki. The truffle fries were crispy but not like truffle fries at all more garlic parm to me...we still scarfed them down. Costumer service was good and the place was clean and socially distanced...

    Barramundi Francaise
    Rashid M.

    Well, well, well. The day is finally here! Yes, this is the day I write my 1,000th Yelp review and I picked a great restaurant for it... As soon as I walked into Speakeasy, I felt that energy. The live music was on point. People at the bar were happy and some dancing. And the sitting area was far enough away from the bar so that you don't have people constantly knocking over your food. My wife ordered the Avocado Fries. I did not think that I would like avocados that are fried, but I was totally wrong. They were so delicious that I hardly shared them as I almost finished the whole plate. I ordered the Barramundi Francaise for my entrée. I didn't know what to expect, but I thought "hey I like chicken Francaise, so why not try the same thing with fish instead". And I'm glad I tried it! The lemon butter went with the fish perfectly. It came with a side of Burnt Broccoli. As someone who HATES broccoli, you would have never guess it judging by how much of them I ate. If my mom made broccoli the same way as Speakeasy, I would have eaten a lot more vegetable when I was younger. Our waitress, Claire, was excellent. She was very nice and patient and knew the menu very well. This is a great restaurant where you can have a top-notch, yet laid-back, dinner. I will definitely be back.

    TVs galore

    My friend and I were in Long Beach that afternoon and decided to look for a place to dine. With many options, we decided to go to Speakeasy on Monday late afternoon. The host, she greeted us with a big smile and welcome and we already felt at home. She sat us at a table outside so I could watch sports on the TV. I believe our waitress was Liz. She was amazing! She has such a great attitude and she seemed to be the only one serving in the dining and outside areas. We got our Guiness 1st, they onlynhad 2 glasses available, the keg was empty and later we switched to Milk stout that she explained. We started ordering like crazy. QST we got the pretzilla which was tasty, and we asked for more beer cheese and they happily obliged. French onion soup was really good too. My friend got cold from the heavy winds outside and they easily moved us inside without a hassle at all. They were accommodating the entire time we were there. We also ordered the tuna with wraps. The 3 sauces were good especially the spicy horseradish sauce!! We also got the shrimp tempura like dish along with their signature Surf and Turf Mac and Cheese. It was a great late afternoon with this place and Liz and the other staff people made it even better. It's definitely a place to return to!!

    Kids meal. Chicken tenders and sweet potato shoestring fries
    Nazeema B.

    Service is good. Good is not that good. Lacks depth of flavor. But it is a typical bar, with bar food. From 4 star reviews I was expecting more.

    Big Mama's Breakfast
    Bill M.

    My wife and I decided to try speakeasy for Sunday brunch. The atmosphere was friendly and boisterous, the service was great and the food was amazing. We both barely finished our meals, but they were so good it was hard to stop. She had the Panko French toast, And I had the big mamas breakfast. Both were absolutely delicious. I would certainly go back!

    Buffalo Chix Mac
    Rocio F.

    Really cool place with a nice patio area. The food was all reasonably priced expect for the entrees. I'm disappointed in myself for getting the chicken and gravy that was $25 I should have done so many other great looking options. The buffalo Mac and cheese was bomb and so was the giant pretzel.

    Burger love! Sweet potato shoestring fries were damn good and never ending
    Bill S.

    Cool pub in Long Beach but good luck finding a parking spot, yeesh. *Free* Guinness beer with Yelp check in?? Damn, that's what I'm talking about, some Yelp love!! So two Italian guys walk into a bar.. No it's not a joke, I'm with my brother from another mother and we decided to have a burger & brew at Speakeasy. I noticed there are about 6 taps at the bar and they're filled with seasonal summer beers. I love Summer Beers. To have a beer with the Atlantic Ocean roaring in the background? Priceless. Speakeasy is a great gastropub, its progressive with bar related items. My buddy Jason mentioned ordering the pretzilla. I knew he was jonesin' for it but somehow we passed on appetizers. Friday nights, I meet my wife for happy hour and I knew I had to eat lite. I ordered a simple burger with sweet potato fries. I'm drinking my beer, having a burger and I'm totally in the zone. While in this blissful state, a dude walks and says: I have DVDs, check it out...... I wanted to say, here's the jail cell, right this way but I have wifee waiting in the wings. I'm sure this place is crazy crowded at nights & weekend. Great food, my burger was cooked perfectly, the beers are spot on for the summer, its just a cool spot. Speakeasy, you spoke to me with love by serving cold beers and good burgers.

    Thai Tuna Lettuce Wraps
    Derek M.

    Spotted this place on Yelp before heading to Long Beach, wanted to stop in and give it a try for lunch. My friend and I were seated immediately, not a lot of staff inside but not busy either so service was quick. Without much expectations I ordered the Thai Tuna Lettuce Wraps and my friend got the Grilled Cheese Duck Sandwich. We got our dishes not too long after and we're both pretty surprised at how good they were! The Thai Tuna Lettuce Wraps was delicately cut slices of raw tuna with garnished with slices of small lettuce covered by carrots, onions, (radish?) and more. I'm slightly allergic to carrots so I had to take it out, I would've asked for no carrots if I knew it was included, but all good! My friend devoured his grilled cheese duck sandwich so all I got was a photo. Must have been good. Definitely want to try a full entree here with some drinks next time!

    Pretzilla! Best pretzel I've ever tasted!
    Meri K.

    Liked the spot. Found it using Yelp ;) cool atmosphere, lotsa draft beers. Reminded me of Bronx ale House a lot.. the layout, digital draught signage, the menu (I even wonder if they're affiliated in some way?) anyway? The atmosphere was typical nyc pub (30's ish's), and I liked their outdoor patio area, which had walls and a roof, I think heat lamps, and socially distanced hi-top tables. OK. so, the PRETZILLA!!!!!! Oh My God! Arguably BEST SOFT PRETZEL IVE EVER HAD!!!!! It's huge, and comes hanging off of some type of metal hook (like a Radko ornament hanger) . It was perfect! Warm. The outside was crispy, and inside was a soft, almost croissant-like consistency. Flavor was amazing, and perfectly salted-not too little, not too much-just right!! It wasn't greasy on the outside like an Auntie Ann one (gross), but had an unassuming "glisten,"!if that makes sense? It was heavenly. (Not sure I've ever used that adjective to describe a pretzel). Oh, yes - we ordered other food also. Wings were really good too. I got the "meatloaf tidbits" for dinner. This was actually an open faced meatLOAF parm hero, with golden & melty mozz on too. Looked amazing. Looked so promising. I was psyched when I saw it. It wasn't. It was nasty! For some reason (and my husband actually agreed-I wasn't going crazy), it tasted clammy (yes, like clams from the ocean). I don't think meatloaf is known to taste clammy) ew, I'm throwing up a lil in my mouth... anyway, it had this odd flavor. Also, it was so charred, and I hate that "black-liney taste", as I call it. It was so overpoweringly char-tasting, that you couldn't even taste the clammy meatloaf. The bread and the meatloaf pieces equally charred- especially the edges. So yuck. Jerry had a burger, and didn't go "woah!" either way, so I guess it was nothing to write home about. Conclusion, we'd back to get MANY Pretzillas- I may drive the hour from Brooklyn just to get one, and a few to go!!! So delectable ! Sigh. Apps n beers only for us tho next time.

    Brunch
    Ryan F.

    We came inside to Speakeasy after a party on the beach for the post-Hurricane Sandy boardwalk demolition. Apparently, Speakeasy was remodeled after the hurricane, but since this was my first visit, I'm not sure what it looked like prior... This bar is a nice change of pace from the often packed, often insane Minnesota's and Beach House. Its relatively narrow interior (for Long Beach) and exposed brick reminded me of a nice low-key dive in NYC, but their beer selection (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/speakeasy-long-beach?select=TWCqXRlih9Cvih09nUMnRw#TWCqXRlih9Cvih09nUMnRw) helps contrast them from the other west end bars. They've got really friendly bartenders and a funky-looking jukebox to boot!

Excellent lead guitar and vocals with some superb solo work. Scotty, who we know from another band, Blue Roots, on blues harp, outstanding. Solid bassist and percussionist contributing to solid music. We stayed for 2 of the 3 sets. Lisa E. making rounds and friends throughout the venue.

There's only one bathroom downstairs so sometimes she had to wait in line, but it was easy always people to talk to apparently many years ago was speakeasy so it really kept that great vibe. They have big booths. They kept Fred Astaire on the screen. The music was great great company at the area that it was at and was just fabulous.

The Alibi was decorated beautifully and there were two really cute Photo Ops by "Platform 9 3/4" and the Wand Shop. Come here for the drinks! The Hufflepuff was bourbon forward and reminded me of an Old Fashioned which further confirmed that is truly my house. It also came with an edible golden snitch. The server pointed it out before I gave them what I thought to be decor. I popped the chocolate golden snitch in my mouth after being directed to take the wrapping off first. We then did butterbeer shots and I can't even begin to tell you how delish they were...dangerously delicious. Food was had and it wasn't anything to write about but I'll try. Queso dip is made in house, which I respect. Loaded potato wontons were a great idea and were probably the best things on the table. You can't go wrong with pretzel nuggets. Chocolate cake is never a bad idea. I ended my visit with a chocolate frog drink. Very similar to an espresso martini. You know how hot they are right now. It came with a an actual chocolate frog which was nice. Finally one of the staff members came over to help us play Bertie Botts and we all picked a jellybean. I got lemon. Some of us got soap and warwax. So fun! It was so good, we are going to try to snag another rez for trivia. Reservations are for 90 minute seatings. You pay $15 for a ticket but you get a souvenir cup with your ticket. Not mad about this because the cup is actually decent and will be used. Their next pop up will be "Slime Time". Slime is not my thing but maybe you'll see me at the other pop ups.

Right now they have a tiki theme, however, that's it in my opinion as far as draw to keep going there. The drinks are an overpriced smoke screen for people who want to waste money on a sugary drink. And it goes along with the whole Asbury Park eclectic vibe but most of the drinks have a 5 or more ingredients I never heard of (which is fine) but it waters down the drink. I don't want to have a drink (or pay $15+ for a drink) that tastes like a fruity cup of juice. As far as the limited food suggestions on the menu- only 2 or 3- this is the third time we've been there and they said they were out of food -so then take it off your menu if you can't be consistent!!! We're not just going to keep drinking without anything to eat to go along with it. As far as the service it's inconsistent, when we sat down there was only two of us- The server was very nice but we waited too long for our drinks. A party of 7 came in about 1/2 hour after us and they had their drinks within 5 minutes- that should never be. After one drink we got the check and we left, we are completely scratching it off our list, we will not return there. It does bum me out because it has such potential and there's nothing like it around but I'm not going to visit an establishment where I walk away feeling it was a waste of money.
