One of our owners spent a whole year on the New Jersey Shore, and she has been working to bring some boardwalk items to our menu”. Starting from Memorial Day (May 30th) Beachside at Buoys will be open 7 days a week until Labor Day (September 5th). In partnership with Buoys Bar, Beachside at Buoys is able to host local events like Krewe of Seahorse monthly membership meetings, birthday parties, receptions, etc. If you’re looking for something a little more exclusive, Chef Joe is available for events that require a private chef, as well as setting up family meals for those visiting on the weekend.
