What clients say about The Boat Yard in East Massapequa (NY)
Disgusting that they charge $20pp to enter if you are NOT a Nassau County resident or town of Oyster Bay resident. I was not paying for my wife and I $40 to walk in there and then buying apps and a couple of overpriced drinks . I am From Northport. They lost money from me.
You must go to Tobay especially this Sunday for their fantastic as always car show!
I’m with the entertainment end Vinyl Revival! Best dance band in town
Their set list is demanding and played with expertise beyond great! Wanna sample? Look at this
They have some nerve charging.You $20 to get in there and then the guards.Well, I wouldn't really call them guards but the guys at the door you can't read the stamp.I paid twice to get in because my stamp washed off when I washed my hands in the bathroom
Had a great summer there last of the Body English's not the same but nothing else to do on my island on a Monday or Wednesday night. Had a great summer guys. Thank you.
Most nights their music is boring. Their security guards are sitting mostly and look like they are falling asleep . Doesn’t make me feel safe at all. Low energy vibes from Bartenders . Drinks are pricey and watered down. Lantern flies all over the deck . Not a fan of this place . Wouldn’t pay $ here
The atmosphere is great and its a great spot, but I was turned off because there were roaches everywhere outside on the deck. Absolutely disgusting! I have to assume they don't have the area sprayed regularly.
Great band, it was a like a professional stage show.
(krush) We had a few drinks that were very good. Alot of friendly people. Food is available but we didn't eat. The beach is right there too!
Really nice spot. Good vibes but honestly DONT UNDERSTAND WHY U CANT COME BACK IN AFTER 10 if you need to go to bathroom. Place is fire amazing but the fact that I pay $20-30 for a ticket to walk in and basically cant to go bathroom after 10 without not being able to go back in is wild. 1 lost customer here. Doesn’t make a difference for a random like me to say it here. But if I’m staying till 12 I’m buying 5-6 more drinks+ more if I’m with a group but if after 10 but if I can’t go to bathroom without leaving permanently I wouldn’t buy anymore drinks. So ya please change that rule. Thank you and honestly sorry for the review
Wednesday nights with DJ Theo are a lot of fun but it gets extremely crowded and difficult to get a drink at times. But overall, fun atmosphere being there and on the water.
Usually a great venue, the age needs to be raised though. Young 21 yr old kids want to start problems and fight after they drink. We aren’t going as much this year bcz the crowd is low grade due to this problem. Last night was no different, as one tried to start a problem with my group. Nobody wants to go out for a fun Wednesday night and end up with this happening.. one star granted bcz the crowd really sucks now.
The company I work for "college hunks " is a vendor/sponsor for the tobay beach car show event hosted bye Joseph saladino here with WBAB and BLI along with many others it's an awesome place .
We love this place! Food is actually reasonable and they have a great selection! You have 4 or 5 "venues" to choose from...order your food from delicious pizza to burgers, salads and more! Not to mention there is live music almost every night as long as it doesn't rain...you will have a great time!!!
This place refuses to hold true to their word. Unless you spend $50+ per person, you will not receive these benefits. Do not frequent such a corrupt establishment. I thought New York was better than this. Disappointed.
Bacon cheeseburger- 10/10. $20
Very juicy, perfectly cooked medium rare. Had it second time week later and exact same consistency. French fries perfectly crispy. Order early, takes 15-20 mins to make.
Pepperoni pizza without the spicy honey sauce. 8.5/10.
Pepperonis cooked perfectly, had the great roni cup shape and char. Cheese very good. Sauce slightly less than I prefer but still okay. Needs slightly better crust, flavor slightly off. This is a medium size, smack between large and personal size. Can feed 2 adults or 1 adult and 2 young kids.
Zappole - 10/10. $11
These are ridiculously fresh and delicious. Perfectly made. Still hot, straight from the frier. Right amount of powder sugar. This is a must have for fresh Italian donuts made to order, can’t get that in a regular Italian bakery shop.
Great place good food and friendly people. The band was very good and the atmosphere was awesome I will definitely be back to turn some friends and family on to the boat yard and the splash park next door the kids had a great time
Food was okay for a Bacon Cheese Burger and a Beer 🍺 Definitely going back for Dinner and to Hangout. Maybe see a good Band with my Husband and afew Friends. Maybe a day at the Beach, Great place for a Sunset n Kids will love it there. Mine are grown but there's a cute water park too.
My husband and I have been spending our summers at the Boat Yard and only saw it fit to get married here this past weekend. From first contact with Bill and Mark we knew we were working with a team of passionate professionals. We were introduced to manager Olivia and Chef Jim, who walked us through our menu and every detail of our event, including preparing for rain. Olivia went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. She personally decorated for our wedding and addressed every possible detail as if she were planning her own wedding. Her kindness to our guests actually brought some to tears - she was truly happy to be a part of our day, and her passionate and upbeat attitude made everyone feel welcome and important. Chef Jim totally got our palette vibe and prepared the most delicious food for our guests. I’ve been to many (big) weddings and the food that Chef Jim prepared for us was by far the best. We were so impressed by the menu and he added so many delicious extra surprises. He also came out of the kitchen frequently to check on everyone. I can’t speak highly enough of the Boat Yard and their entire team. Every single person we encountered was excited to work with us and made us feel so special and loved on one of the most important days of our lives. We are forever grateful to this team and glad that we get to spend our summers at such a meaningful place!
Went there 2 week ago ,so much Fun, oyster was great
Chicken or shrimp Rice need to be improve, no flavors
Drinks was great
The band was excellent
We will go back again
Wow, what a find! Cool place for lunch, a drink and to see a show. Right on the Tobay Beach waters. Beautiful setting. Go check it out. Be prepared to get food on your own, no table service. You have to go next store to the Surf Shack for that. Everything is tough to do alone. Get a table and hold it, get food at multiple different stations and also get drinks. You need help. Be prepared. I'm sorry I haven't gone here sooner. Tell 'em Barsnobs sent ya!
Overall, a fun experience. Food was good, waitress was awesome, and listening to music while watching the sun set was outstanding! The live palm trees in the sand we’re an added plus!
What a beautiful place to sit and enjoy the sunset to some great music and atmosphere. Ample room at 6pm but got busy fast. Likely due to lack of tables for COVID. My gripe is the food quality is mediocre. Had the chicken tacos which were watery and had nothing on them. No cheese, lettuce or tomatoes. Just a line of watery sour cream. Flavor was ok with a ton of chicken. But still why not add other stuff? The pizza for kids was better but tasted a bit doughy. Wife had Cuban which she loved. Guacamole was super bland. Wouldn’t even call it that. More like a ball of raw avocado. Salsa was basically chunky flavorless water. Chips were fine. Everything is also kinda expensive too for a self serve place but I suppose that’s the price for location. With all my complaints I’d still come back again and try something else. You never know. Could have been a bad day.
Nice atmosphere, live band, friendly staff. The food is sub par but edible. Had the chicken tacos from from La Playa Taco Bar which were bland and tasteless. The beef tacos were good and full of flavor. Drinks from the bar was good and they even accommodate the young kids with Virginia pina coladas.
Great location to enjoy some music and cocktails. I loved the country music Monday nights! The staff were all very friendly. I didn’t get a chance to try any of the food.
