What a great spot to grab a delicious bite and a beer ( adult beverages) we rode all around the beautiful park with our bikes then sat down to enjoy the music and food under the tress, with sand under our feet! Parking is plenty all around the park with an entrance fee. Well worth the visit! Stroll , bike or drive around the park or you can even jump on a kayak for a nice paddle. Check it out!

The coolest bar restaurant you will ever see. Underneath the sea grape trees is a very cool bar with live music delicious cheeseburgers and other goodies. Ray and Dani behind the bar were so cool and so accommodating and so friendly. Just love them. What a great place to have some drinks and a bite to eat. It looks out to the ocean. Birch State Park is right behind it. Wow what a great find. Highly recommended

Really lovely beer garden. The back area has picnic benches under a tree canopy with a view of the ocean. Wow! I wish the place would be open longer during the week.

PHENOMENAL! This team goes above and beyond with catering to their guests. We could not have had a better experience when bringing a small group in, let alone when we go there on our own. Park&Ocean will continue to be a fan favorite with the expertise, kindness, and best all around customer service they provide. They do their jobs with heart and it does NOT go unnoticed. Thank you for making our day so special!
