Best Places to Eat in and Around Oceans Calling & Country Calling in Ocean City, MD

Posted on by Taylor

When the music comes to Ocean City, Maryland, the entire town gets in on the fun. From Oceans Calling this weekend to Country Calling next, festival weekends bring live music, beach days, Boardwalk adventures…and plenty of reasons to work up an appetite. If you’re looking for the best places to eat during Oceans Calling and Country Calling, keep reading and you’ll find plenty of great options just a short distance from the concerts.

But here’s a local tip: you don’t have to spend your entire weekend eating inside the festival grounds.

If you’re looking for the best places to eat during Oceans Calling and Country Calling, there are plenty of spots just a short distance from the concerts that let you enjoy the energy of festival weekend without the festival prices. Whether you’re grabbing coffee before the music starts, fueling up with breakfast or lunch, or looking for a place to keep the party going during or after the shows, we have you covered!

Wedge & Harbor Watch: Your Festival-Weekend Headquarters

When it comes to eating around the festivals, it doesn’t get much more convenient than Wedge Bar & Grill and Harrison’s Harbor Watch. Both are located within the festival footprint and just a short distance from the concert action, putting you close to the excitement without requiring you to commit to festival food for every meal.

Wedge Bar & Grill is an ideal stop when you want to be close to the music while still enjoying a relaxed Ocean City dining experience. Located at the end of the Boardwalk overlooking the Inlet, it’s an easy place to grab food and drinks before heading into the concerts, or to meet up with friends during a break from the festival.

And during festival weekends, the Wedge has an extra reason to stop in. Don’t miss their Dewey Beer promotion! Similar to last year’s promotion, but with a new beer in rotation. Festival season calls for a cold beer and a souvenir worth taking home. Only available at the Wedge, festival-goers can enjoy the Dewey Beer souvenir cup, featuring a 22-ounce keepsake cup filled with your first pour of Dewey Beer. Refills are available throughout the festival weekend, making it an easy way to enjoy a cold craft beer while keeping a little piece of your Ocean City festival weekend.


Or, make it dinner at Harrison’s Harbor Watch! Just steps from the festival action, Harrison’s Harbor Watch delivers one of Ocean City’s classic waterfront dining experiences.

Located at the southern end of the Boardwalk overlooking the Inlet, Harbor Watch is a natural choice when you’re looking for a sit-down seafood dinner during festival weekend. With waterfront views, seafood favorites, a raw bar, and a beautiful setting, it’s a great place to slow down and enjoy dinner before or after the music. (And in air conditioning!) You can enjoy the excitement of festival weekend while still having a local Ocean City restaurant experience outside the festival grounds.

Start Your Festival Day With Coffee at Starbucks

Festival days start early, especially when you’re trying to fit in breakfast, beach time, and a full day of music. For a quick caffeine fix, stop by the Starbucks on 17th Street before heading downtown. Enjoy the fully renovated space, plus mobile ordering makes it even easier. Place your order ahead of time, grab your coffee, and get moving without adding another stop to your festival-day schedule.

Staying With Us? Eat Before You Head to the Festival

If you’re staying at one of our Ocean City properties, you don’t necessarily have to head straight to the festival grounds when you wake up. Start your day with breakfast or lunch at one of our restaurants, then head downtown once you’re fueled up and ready for the music.

Staying near 33rd Street? Marlin Moon Restaurant is a convenient option for breakfast, lunch, or a relaxed meal before heading toward the festival. Enjoy a coastal setting and a menu featuring seafood and American favorites before starting your day of music and activities. Pro tip, start your day with their seasonal mimosa flight!

At the Hilton Oceanfront Suites, 32 Palm offers breakfast, lunch, dinner, and drinks. Grab breakfast before you start your festival day or sit down for lunch before heading south toward the Boardwalk. It’s an easy way to make your hotel part of the dining experience instead of treating it as simply a place to sleep. Pro tip: order it to your room as room service!

For guests staying near 15th Street, Captain’s Table is another convenient option for starting the day. Have breakfast, enjoy the oceanfront view, and then make your way toward the festival when you’re ready.

Don’t overlook Coral Reef when you’re planning your festival weekend dining. It’s another convenient option for guests staying with us who want to grab a meal before heading toward the music.

Getting a meal in before you head to the festival means you can spend more of your day enjoying the concerts, Boardwalk, beach, and everything else Ocean City has to offer.

Keep the Music Going at Cabanas & Caribbean Pool Bar

Festival weekend doesn’t have to end when you leave the concert grounds. If you’re looking for live music, drinks, food, and a laid-back Ocean City atmosphere, check out Cabanas Beach Bar & Grille and Caribbean Pool Bar. Both offer a fun way to continue the festival-weekend energy, with live music and specials throughout the season.

Make Your Ocean City Festival Weekend About More Than the Music

Oceans Calling and Country Calling bring some of the biggest music weekends of the year to Ocean City, but the festival is only part of the experience. You can build your weekend around the music while still enjoying the restaurants, bars, coffee shops, beaches, and Boardwalk attractions that make Ocean City special.

Whether you’re coming to Ocean City for Oceans Calling or Country Calling, make your dining plans part of the experience. With restaurants close to the festival, convenient hotel dining, coffee just steps from the Boardwalk, live music, drink specials, and the Dewey Beer promotion at the Wedge, you can spend less time worrying about where to eat and more time enjoying the weekend.

Come for the music. Stay for the beach, Boardwalk, food, and Ocean City memories.

Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day Weekend at Marlin Moon with Delicious Food & Drink Specials!

Posted on by Taylor

This St. Patrick’s Day weekend, Marlin Moon is going all out with festive flavors, hearty dishes, and creative cocktails to make your celebration unforgettable. Whether you’re Irish at heart or just love a good party, there’s something for everyone.

Food Specials That Will Make You Say “Sláinte!”

Marlin Moon’s Chef has crafted a menu full of comforting Irish-inspired dishes with a modern twist:

  • Irish Banger & Mash – Classic sausages served with creamy mashed potatoes, peas, and a rich whiskey mushroom gravy.
  • Irish Poutine – A decadent take on the Canadian favorite: crispy fries topped with Guinness cheddar cheese sauce, corned beef chips, Jeson crema, and green onions. Perfect for sharing… or not.

The St. Patrick’s Day cocktails are just as festive as the food. Try the Irish Margarita, a vibrant twist on the classic with Jameson and a sparkling gold-sugar rim, or indulge in the decadent Pistachio Espresso Martini, blending espresso, Baileys, and a hint of blue curaçao. For something fruity and refreshing, the Sparkling Green Sangria is bursting with Moscato, citrus, and crisp green fruits, while the Pot of Gold Mocktail offers a sparkling, non-alcoholic option with orange, pineapple, and a touch of edible glitter.

Whether you’re here for the food, the drinks, or the festive vibes, Marlin Moon is your St. Patrick’s Day weekend destination. Gather your friends, wear your green, and toast to good times! For more St. Patrick’s Day festivities, read this blog post here.
