Wonder Bar has seriously gone downhill since my last visit. The food was mediocre, the service was underwhelming, and taking calamari off the menu was a disappointing surprise. For a place with such a great location, the overall experience simply doesn't match the potential. There also appears to be a revolving door of staff, and when you constantly see turnover, it raises questions about management and how the business is being run. The bartender was okay, but had absolutely no personality or customer engagement. Honestly, the location is doing a lot of the heavy lifting here. The beer, convenient location, and late hours are pretty much the only reasons I would consider coming back. Atlantic City has plenty of competition, and Wonder Bar needs to step it up. Great location alone can only carry a business so far. read more

This bar is unquestionably a locals' hangout on a late Monday night. It attracted a solid crowd, and the drinks were excellent. There was only one bartender and one waitress handling food service. Neither of them took conflicting orders; she prepared food, he served drinks--plain and simple. Regarding the experience, I ordered a whole pizza with cheese and pepperoni, and it was truly terrible. Everything about that pizza was revolting--by far the worst I've ever had. One of my friends ordered pretzel bites with cheese, which were decent, but I promptly discarded the pizza and returned to my cocktails, which were the highlight of the evening. As I mentioned earlier, the crowd was lively, consisting mainly of younger, college-aged adults rather than seasoned locals, so we didn't stay long enough to mingle. read more

My Wife and I Visited Wonder Bar this past Sunday Night 4/5/2026 This was our second time visiting your establishment and we actually enjoyed our time there the first time and felt it could be a nice spot for us to come when in Atlantic City and looked forward to visiting when weather got Warmer to experience the deck over the water and summer vibes. The incident that occurred late Sunday night was totally unprovoked and unacceptable as my Wife and I were set to leave and this White guy & his friend started this by pointing a drink at my Wife and unprovoked said; "That BITCH want a drink?" Then followed up with; "That BITCH with the Glasses" and Yes immediately afterwards I approached him and his friend with every intention to protect my Wife. But out of respect I looked to your Bartender who in his own words stated that "we didn't do anything to anyone and were not bothering anyone." I said to him; "Out of Respect for Your Establishment me and my Wife will leave because I don't want to disrespect your establishment!" My Wife and I feel Your employee should have had the 2 bigots escorted out and not let us leave under those circumstances understanding we were not the aggressors at all. We like to dine at different establishments as we are entering into this industry we've always love trying different places. We felt your establishment was one we could come to when we visited AC but after what occurred and how it was handled we don't feel our safety was a priority and that us being the ones who were provoked by 2 Bigots who entered your establishment already intoxicated when they sat down and the Bartender Over-serving them, we felt they should have been told to leave and regardless if we were getting ready to leave or not. It was mishandled by your Bartender from the moment He Served them their first "Screwballs"... We Will Not Be Returning to Your Establishment Nor Will We Recommend Such Establishments that Allow Such Behavior. read more

Great prices, wonderful food and great service! My only complaint was that they didn't have a traditional "house salad". Theirs was a salad filled with raisins and walnuts that did not interest me, but my friend enjoyed it!. I have to confess that there were several other types of salad on the menu but none to my liking. The outside patio on the peer was delightful. read more

Great view, drinks and service were good. The fries and wrap were good but the rest of the meal was disappointing- we tried the crab bisque, hot pork sandwich and the quesadilla read more

just try the nachos. how tf am I supposed to eat the chicken on the nachos. overall great service. food is lacking. Ended up leaving and when I got back to the AirBnB threw up all the nachos. The chips are stale as fuck. clearly they don't try their own food read more

We just stopped here on the way to check into our hotel. The music is great!! The salad and fries were awesome! The drinks are very strong though so I did switch to a canned drink. The waitress was attentive as well. You can see the bay and a cute spot to take pictures in here. Give it a try. read more

We love wonder bar. The views are awesome, staff is always great and the food is always good. The have a lot to choose from, I really like their wraps. But whatever you get I'm sure it'll be good. read more

Great outdoor/indoor bar right on the water! After several visits to this establishment, I can confidently say that their food does not disappoint. And in light of our COVID-19 reality right now, the Wonder Bar had adapted ample outdoor seating that's efficient and comfortable. Masks are required when using the indoor restrooms, but otherwise everything else is outdoors. We recently arrived on a Thursday evening by boat for a late snack (10:00 PM) and the kitchen was still open. We also realized that you can also enjoy a little hookah action at the Wonder Bar also. Tres cool! The crowd is diverse and we love that. Great food, cold drinks, and beautiful intercostal and sunset views. It's a great place for a bit of summer normalcy during the pandemic! read more

Terribl! Spent $50 on nachos and mozzarella sticks and my whole order was wrong. I then informed them and was told I got the wrong order and was hung up on. Terrible is the only thing i can say. read more

Great sitting on the back deck and enjoying the view. Last meal wasn't the best! Fish (tasted frozen) and chips best part of the meal. Service was good. read more

Cool little Bayside bar. I like how they had a dock so you could literally pull up on your boat, hop out, and grab a bite to eat with some drinks. That said you pay a premium for that novelty. $13 burger comes with chips but adding fries costs $5.50. Unacceptable. Wings were good. Bacon wrapped shrimp was good but the shrimp was a bit overcooked. Burger was nothing special and also overcooked given it was ordered medium rare. Wife said the fish tacos were awesome and our friends liked their bacon cheesesteak. Service was good. Lunch for 4 with some drinks was about $180 though so be prepared for that. Also the menu said the place was open from 11 a.m. to 6 a.m. which is the craziest hours I've seen. read more

The food was delicious, hot, and came out fast. Bartenders were funny and welcoming. Watching the sun set on the outside deck was amazing!! Whether your a local or tourist.... Check out this establishment. read more

Wonder Bar - Crab bisque - American Near Me - Atlantic City, New Jersey

The service was a bit slow here which usually isn't something that bothers me, but it was far from being full and we saw our waitress chatting for a long time instead of taking our orders. The wings and hot dogs were amazing. The fish tacos and other wraps we got were only okay. The outdoor patio area seemed fun with good music. read more

Wonder Bar - for those who have strong political feelings either way, this is on display - American Near Me - Atlantic City, New Jersey

First time going here and we had a very nice time. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. They have many options on ther food and drinks menu. I had the Jalapeño burger which came with fresh homeade chips. Very tasty. I also had the wingdls which were my favorite! They are meaty and not like other places who give you tiny wings. These are worth it! read more

Wonder Bar - So much yummy food. - American Near Me - Atlantic City, New Jersey

Sat out on back patio. Table hadn't been wiped and televisions were on way too loud. Even for a football game. Waited about 10min to be greeted and given menus. There were 3 of us, total. The three of us ordered the same jalapeño cheddar Hot Dogs. And none of us got them. Our waitress had pressed the wrong button and put in 3 meatball sandwiches instead. We had already waited about 30min to get our incorrect order. And since we were restricted by time because we had to catch a bus we couldn't wait for new food. The meatball sandwich was not very good (not too mention my least favorite type of sandwich) and all of us were disappointed. No discount to the bill was offered and we barely ever saw our waitress the entire time. It's a shame. I really want to like Wonder Bar. But every time I give it another try I'm disappointed. read more

Great spot on the water. The food is awesome and fresh. View is spectacular. Had great service every time. Kelly is a fantastic bartender. Definitely worth the stop and highly recommend read more

Had a pretty bad experience, food was definitely bad and service just wasn't consistent. Would have gone elsewhere if places were less busy. Usually great food and vibes but honestly not somewhere I'm gonna go back to this summer. Save your money and time unless it's just drinks. read more

This place has everything you could possibly ask for to be great. It just isn't. Think about it...how hard is it to have a good attitude, treat people well and serve good food? Other establishments are doing it all over the place. Problem here is the ownership and management just doesn't care enough to make this place great so it's not...it's just ok, barely. If it wasn't right on the water it would be empty because Vagabond is right up the street and you feel very good about your experience leaving there. You don't feel very good after going to Wonder Bar because they don't treat you like they wanted you there in the first place regardless of your race. read more

Came here on a Saturday night. Loved this bar! We had to wait a little for an outdoor table but it was worth it! The food and drinks were reasonably priced and the vibe of the outdoor area was amazing. I will definitely be coming back! I also recommend the local favorite ($13) a little pricy but it was sooo good! I got it on a wrap and it came with chicken, bacon, avocado and spicy chipotle sauce. I also think they have live bands sometimes so if you do decide to come, check out the schedule for that. read more

Bartender was so nice. Change the FUCKING MUSIC. Who wants to listen to incubus on a Monday for a Bach

We had an excellent, rainy lunch at Wonder Bar!! The tuna salad was delicious and blackened chicken sandwich just great. Sweet potato fries were an extra bonus. Also loved the Phillies' drink specials!! We will definitely be back!! Pam read more

Food has always been good but only until recently has the VIBE gotten better. I want to congratulate Katy on this?? I'm not her homie, but my God, thank you... finally some good tunes. The vibe of the beach and summer is riging in the air, even if summer is months away. Finally someone is playing a happy tune. read more

The bay views and staff were great. The food was just ok. Prices a little high for what we got for lunch.

Highway robbery! $13.50 for 1oz of Hennessy? One drink ordered was with ginger ale that was weak. I asked for a little more Hennessy to taste the liquor and was told I would need to buy another shot. Like WOW ! From what I could see, regular & non regular customers did not get the same treatment. None of my drinks were even. We are bartenders and understand the game. Just do not underestimate a potential new customer. $70 for 5 shots ‍. Go buy a bottle or go elsewhere. NEVER HAVE I EVER HEARD OF $13.50 for a shot of Hennessy ‍. read more

I usually never write reviews however my experience today was a must. If I could give my experience at Wonderbar -5 stars I would!! My friend and I were approached by a waitress with purple/gray hair who stated with an attitude, that she would be with us in a few minutes. As she walked us to the last table with the umbrella as requested, she commented, "this umbrella doesn't even work anyways" then walked away. We were confused by the comment because it was working perfectly fine. We sat for 15 minutes without anyone approaching us for introduction or to ask for drinks. Then about 5 minutes later, a family of 4 sat down at the table next to us. We noticed a waitress bringing drinks to the table behind us and after she had finished and started walking away, we attempted to call her 3 times... she definitely heard us because the table of 4 all looked at us then her, as she continued to trot away. She trotted about 10 foot away, then turned back to look at us, and shrugged her shoulders. Next, about 5 minutes later, a different waitress brought drinks to the family of 4 that were seated AFTER us... mind you, we did not even get acknowledgement from a single staff at this point. As she finished placing the drinks down and began to walk away, my friend and I said "excuse me" she turned around, aknowledged we asked for her however she didn't even bother to walk over to our table. She stood still and replied "Yes?" We kindly asked to order drinks and she mumbled some gibberish and walked away. At this point, we confirmed that all of the waitress were discriminating against US. We were the ONLY table that was not helped! There were at least 8 waiters and waitresses walking around. Terrible terrible service!!! On top of that, we had to pay $5 for a "valet" service where WE parked our OWN car. What a waste of 30 mins of our day. Never again will we waste our time at a local business that cannot treat its customers equally. We were surround by all Caucasian customers and all of the rude waitresses we encountered were also Caucasian. We felt the difference in treatment from the staff. This is NOT the time to be racist and we will NOT waste our time and money for those that discriminate against color! What an absolute disrespectful experience we encountered on this beautiful Saturday! WONDERBAR NEEDS TO TRAIN ITS EMPLOYEES BETTER. read more

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE waiter ignored me all night and gave me attitude when i asked for help and rolled her eyes at me and my kids

Pulled up here on the boat. Very cool outdoor bar, good fish tacos. Will definitely have to come back again!

I come here all the time with my friends (mostly at night time) and I've never had a bad time here. We sit at the bar and the bartenders are very nice. The servers are also very nice. The food is really good here; I'm never disappointed. The mussels in red sauce is always a must have for me and my friends love the double pork roll. read more

Wonder Bar - mussels in regular red sauce - American Near Me - Atlantic City, New Jersey

Typical bar scene w/ decent food. Nothing too spectacular. Although, was happy that there was a touch-screen ($1 game machine) there. Had the clams casino (pictured) & the crab cake sammy. Recommend the sandwich for its price, although I wish it offered fries as a side instead of regular flavoured chips. Service of specific waiter was indifferent though. Completely unapologetic when friend specifically ordered a chicken cheese steak, but mistakenly gave her one w/ beef instead. It took her several bites before she noticed. This was during a time she had been on a "no red-meat diet" for about 3 months. Although taken off the bill, waiter still seemed "out of it" and not completely helpful. read more

Wonder Bar - Clams Casino - American Near Me - Atlantic City, New Jersey

The Wonder Bar left me wondering...chicken burrito was shredded and swimming in salty glop. The food runner dropped chips off the plate and ignored them. Then replied "I'm just a runner" when asked for a drink refill. The waitress couldn't be bothered...all this on a slow Monday. The only thing I'm wondering is why aren't there any other restaurants that good for boaters? read more

While our waitress was kind, sadly, I can't recommend Wonder Bar. Could be that they are understaffed I suppose. Very very long wait, it was evident that the kitchen was behind. My "local favorite" wrap was great, it just wasn't worth the wait. Coming to drink is one thing, it's a beautiful ambiance on the water. But not for food :( read more

This place was great for lunch- Armando was super attentive and suggested his favorite for us - it was an awesome wrap and very good. Stop in for ice cold beer, good food and great service read more

I just love wonder bar. Love the service, absolutely love the food and definitely love the drinks. Coming here is always a good time with a good view. Came here for many occasions with friends, hang out, have a few drinks and a bite. I recommend the loaded fries, philly cheese steak, scallops, and of course the clams!!! Definitely come here! read more

Don't order nachos - they are just a pile of crap with melted cheese on them. Also don't go there to watch the game - they are incapable of actually putting the Giants game on the TV screen. But they felt free to bitch about the tip. read more

Great happy hour specials but the staff and service need some work. 35 cent wings during all games are good and the beer selection is great. One bartender on a busy Sunday night during football season is completely uncalled. The bartender could not have given a shit. The waiter they sent to get our food order was good. I will be back for the wings, fix your staff. read more

Atlantic City/boardwalk/casinos are a nightmare making wonderbar more of a gem than it would be normally. Party of 7, we called ahead and were easily accomodated. The food was good (esp the apps), drinks too. Prices were fair all things considered. The view was good by the water but probably better before sunset. Lots of locals, few wore masks was the only downside. read more

WonderBar is a fun place! Good ppl and fun times. Nice outside with views of the bay.
