LBI Nightlife Guide

Experience breathtaking sunset views from the rooftop or hit the dance floor during a live performance or late night DJ. With 2 bars on the top deck, one inside and upstairs, plus 1 large bar, and 1 small bar downstairs you are able to grab a drink in multiple different locations.

Enjoy the perfect beach bar atmosphere with both indoor comfort and outdoor ocean vibes, complete with a pool area. Be sure to go on Thursdays for "Thunder Thursday" drink specials.

One of LBI's oldest bars, this beloved local institution recently earned the title of being a top dive bar in NJ. Endearingly called "The Hud," it's where locals escape summer crowds for authentic island vibes.

A lively tavern featuring great pizza, cheesesteaks, live music, and drinks. Dog-friendly patio seating and live music almost nightly, it's been bringing families together since the '80s.

This intimate hotel bar creates the perfect storm of comfort and entertainment, where traveling musicians and local talent converge for unforgettable acoustic sessions that keep patrons coming back night after night.

Transport yourself to the tropics without leaving Ship Bottom. This authentic tiki experience features bamboo décor, tropical cocktails, and becomes the epicenter for classic Jersey Shore rock bands that have been performing here for decades.

Where refined meets relaxed, this multi-level venue offers the rare combination of rooftop cocktails under the stars and intimate backyard gatherings, all while showcasing some of the island's most talented musicians.

Perched above the island bustle, this nautical-themed rooftop bar transforms into a golden hour paradise. The unique buoy-inspired design creates an authentic maritime atmosphere providing stunning sunset views. Inside dining and a large bar are also spot to tuck away when the weather is poor.

Where the catch of the day meets masterfully crafted cocktails. This culinary gem champions local seafood while supporting the island's music scene. The inside bar is a great place to hang out with a variety of drink options.

Popular DJs often play here and there is a large dance floor that gets popular on Saturday nights.

Since 1987, this family-owned establishment has been a go to spot for those looking for dinner and drinks. Be sure to check out "The Backyard" a backyard oasis with a full bar, TVs, and great vibes.

This oceanfront hotel has a great outdoor bar and is a great place to stop before dinner and if you are coming off the beach.

Located in downtown Beach Haven the brewery serves up LBI related beers and has a great atmosphere. I recommend stopping there if you are spending some time near Bay Village or the surrounding area. Bring light snacks and find a spot at one of the tables inside or stay for their trivia nights.

The perfect spot for game days and bar food. Nine high-definition screens broadcasting the latest games and local musicians providing the soundtrack, it's where competition and creativity collide over exceptional food.
