Alaska Stand
What’s better than a delicious burger on a warm sunny day at the beach? Nothing! Luckily, we have just the place for you. Alaska Stand, located at 9th street on the boardwalk, it’s an Ocean City staple and has been so since 1933! For over 90 years, Alaska Stand has been a favorite among locals and tourists alike, and we can pawsonally guarantee you will never be disappointed with anything off of the menu! The BEST pawt about Alaska Stand, of course, is that they are dog furriendly! While dogs are not allowed on the boardwalk from May 1st through September 30th, Alaska Stand is in the PAWFECT location with a direct path off of 9th street that leads straight to their private pup furriendly patio (so you do not need to walk on the boards to get to there). As soon as we arrive at Alaska Stand, our mouths are already watering from the aroma of burgers and hot dogs on the grill. We are always greeted with a warm friendly smile from all of the staff, especially owners Dennis, Jodi, and
their daughter Sadie. They always bring us special treats while we are waiting for our order. This place is not only family owned and operated, but their hospawtality makes you feel like you are pawt of the family. Aside from the food, our furriends at Alaska Stand are our favorite people to visit. Alaska Stand offers breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert! Our pawrents always get burgers with all the toppings (Dad’s favorite is the Big Alaska), and we get our very own cheeseburgers! Their burgers really are the BEST in town! If you’re in the mood for a sweet treat, their menu offers ice cream, milkshakes, funnel cakes, and fried Oreos. They even have pup-a-lattes (whipped cream in a cup) for us pups! Yum! Our favorite thing to do is to grab a table on the patio, and people watch. We always get lots of pets and attention from people walking the boards. It is so much fun to be pawt of the action and enjoy everything that the boardwalk has to offer. Alaska Stand closes after the summer season, so if you haven’t been there yet, do yourself a favor and grab your pup and go visit our furriends. We pawmise you will enjoy your entire experience! When you go, say hi to Jodi and Dennis and let them know Bogey and Huck sent you! Don’t furget to share your experience with us and tag us #GoldenPawtyUnleashed so we can share your adventures on our Instagram @ItsAGoldenPawty! Now that summer is in full swing, and we all want our bellies full of some yummy food, you should go and check out Harborside Bar and Grill in West Ocean City. As a food connoisseur, I can say that the steamed shrimp are extra yummy to my tummy. You can tie up your boat right at their docks; they have plenty of slips. The staff was very friendly and helpful in finding me a nice shady spot to sit and watch the boats go in and out of the harbor while listening to some great music. They even asked if I’d like some water, but my parents make sure I have everything I need for an excursion packed in my bag. I hope everyone is having a fun summer and are staying safe.
