Bayside Clam Bar & Grill East Islip

Come down to this establishment and have a good time. Many different bands play out by the water. So you can enjoy music from local musicians. It is a good burger restaurant that has a perfect location alongside a nice marina. Ample parking is available. On a nice afternoon/evening, come down, visit, and enjoy. 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

My husband wanted me to give this place a 4.97 rating “because it’s awesome” :) We arrived just after 5.30pm on a Thursday afternoon — out-of-staters looking for a quiet meal by the water. Google Maps brought up this place and here we are! It was a tad noisy when we first walked inside the bar to announce our arrival (lol), so we chose to sit outside — we loved the tables and the view, though it was a tad chilly for the second day of summer, with grey clouds and a slight breeze. Sadly, there was no live music because of the weather — and you could tell from chatting with staff that they were frustrated by this. Service was quick and very friendly, and our food was served piping hot and very fresh! I was a tad nervous about reviews that mentioned a lack of proper silverware and plates, but we had both and it was great! My husband went for a burger (our server’s recommendation) and he said it was “awesome”. My veggie burger was officially the best burger I may have ever had! The onion rings were also incredibly fresh and super yum! Despite the lack of live music, we enjoyed the choice of music over the speakers and I can imagine this place is full of atmosphere during the warmer summer months. Extensive menu with lots to choose from — would definitely return!
