Bethany Boathouse - Bethany Beach

You can't say enough positive things about this place! The staff is friendly, the food is excellent, and the drinks are fantastic. It's conveniently located near the beach and the Sea Colony if you're staying nearby. Their orange crush drinks are delicious, and they have a unique take on a Piña Colada that’s definitely worth trying. I usually don’t go for these kinds of drinks unless I’m on vacation, but I gave it a shot, and it was amazing!

We had an amazing dining experience during our vacation in Bethany Beach. I ordered the crab salad, which featured a delightful crab cake and I also added the Zilantro-Calc shrimp on top. The portion was exceptional—much larger and tastier than what we found in other restaurants in the area. My wife enjoyed the tropical salad with crab, which she loved, especially since it included a generous amount of crab. We did notice that some places offered very small portions of crab, so we appreciated the ample servings here. There was also a live musician performing covers of popular songs, which added to the atmosphere. The restaurant has an open-air layout, making it a great spot to enjoy the fresh air while still being shaded from the sun. Overall, this was our favorite dining experience during our five-night stay. (Check out the photo of both salads!)

The atmosphere was enjoyable and the live music added to the experience. However, our waiter seemed a bit inattentive. The Old Bay Chicken wings were excessively salty and inedible. As a local, I won't be returning for dinner.

Which is for the live entertainment of a band we like to follow. On Saturday afternoon there were about 20 minutes to wait, which would not have been much, but the hostesses were rude to do their job. The first thing we talked about was that we had to talk to the other girl, with a jug on her face and the one who told us about the waiting was just rude. The server was great, which is the only reason why they get 3 stars. The crab dive was not well mixed and literally had huge boobs of acid cream that stick out of the bathroom. Can't even eat half of it. Total waste of money. The band was great, but after their set they had to move tables to make a dance floor because it was simply too crowded. Would have been nice for everything that should be arranged before they started. Recommend Brechen

My favorite place to visit at the beach. Great crushes to drink,great food (ahi tuna tacos are my favorite),fun live music and great staff. Longer wait times during the summer but worth the wait.
