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.

There’s something special about a ripe, juicy peach in the middle of summer. Sweet, refreshing, and unmistakably seasonal, peaches are a taste of summer—and for the Harrison Group, they’re also a taste of home.
Long before the Harrison family became a part of Ocean City’s hospitality community, the family’s roots were planted in the orchards of Berlin, Maryland. Harrison Brothers Nurseries became known throughout the country for its peaches and operated thousands of acres of peach orchards on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. That agricultural heritage remains an important part of the Harrison Group story today.
So, when August rolls around and National Peach Month arrives, there’s no better way to celebrate than by bringing a little of that history to the table.
This year, Harrison Group restaurants throughout Ocean City are celebrating with a lineup of peach-inspired cocktails, appetizers, entrées, desserts, and more. Whether you’re looking for something sweet, savory, refreshing, or a little bit of all three, there’s a peach special waiting for you.
Start your Peach Month adventure at Harrison’s Harbor Watch, where you can pair spectacular inlet views with a couple of peach-inspired favorites.
The Life’s a Peach cocktail combines jalapeño-infused tequila, peach simple syrup, grapefruit, soda, and lime for a refreshing drink with just the right amount of sweetness and a little kick.
For dinner, try the Peach Bourbon Salmon, featuring fresh Atlantic salmon roasted and finished with a peach bourbon glaze. It’s a delicious combination of savory seafood and the natural sweetness of summer peaches.
At 32 Palm in the Hilton on 32nd street, peaches take center stage with a cocktail and a savory appetizer.
The Peach on the Beach combines vodka, peach schnapps, peach nectar, cranberry juice, and orange juice for a light and refreshing cocktail with plenty of fruity flavor.
For something to share, order the Grilled Peach & Burrata Crostini. Grilled artisan crostini are topped with creamy burrata, caramelized peaches, fresh basil, and a drizzle of hot honey and balsamic glaze, then finished with cracked black pepper and flaky sea salt. It’s the perfect example of how versatile the summer peach can be.
32 Palm is also featuring a Peach Summertime Flatbread, topped with sliced peaches, herb-whipped goat cheese, arugula, honey, and reduced balsamic.
Looking for something heartier? The Sticky Southern Peach Glazed Ribs feature tender, slow-cooked baby back ribs generously glazed with sweet Southern peach BBQ sauce and finished with a smoky, caramelized flavor.
And for dessert, the Bourbon Peach Cobbler brings together bourbon-kissed peaches, a buttery golden cobbler crust, creamy vanilla ice cream, and a drizzle of rich caramel sauce.
The Original Pool Bar at 66th Street
Sometimes the best place to celebrate summer is poolside. At The Original Pool Bar at the Holiday Inn Oceanfront, grab a Tito’s Peach Tea, made with Tito’s vodka, peach schnapps, and iced tea. It’s an easygoing, refreshing cocktail that fits right in with a day at the beach or pool.
At Coral Reef in the Holiday Inn & Suites on 17th street, peach season gets a bourbon twist. The Bourbon Peach Iced Tea combines Bulleit bourbon, peach purée, and iced tea for a refreshing cocktail with a little Southern character.
Then finish things off with the Peach Honey Hot Cheesecake, a sweet and seasonal dessert that’s perfect for sharing—or keeping all to yourself.
Deep End Pool Bar
Over at the Deep End Pool Bar, you’ll find the same Bourbon Peach Iced Tea, made with Bulleit bourbon, peach purée, and iced tea. And because no summer celebration is complete without dessert, the Peach Honey Hot Cheesecake is also on the menu.
A Taste of Where We Started
For the Harrison Group, Peach Month is about more than creating a few seasonal menu items. It’s an opportunity to celebrate where the company came from.
The Harrison family’s history in this area began with orchards, peaches, and agriculture in Berlin. Eventually, that same family transitioned from the orchards to the oceanfront, opening Harrison Hall in Ocean City and beginning the hospitality story that continues today.
More than a century later, peaches are still a part of that story, this time served in a cocktail glass, on a plate, or alongside an ocean view.
So, whether you’re spending the day at the beach, relaxing poolside, exploring the Boardwalk, or enjoying dinner with friends and family, make Peach Month part of your Ocean City summer.
From the orchard to the ocean, there’s always a reason to celebrate a peach.
