Tuna Striker Pub
5 River St, Seabrook, NH 03874, USA
A local treasure! A very short drive from the main beach but totally worth it! Tuna Striker Pub offers an authentic maritime atmosphere and a lobster roll that is consistently packed with fresh, succulent meat. It's the perfect spot to escape the boardwalk crowds and enjoy a high-quality meal with a great view. This is our #1 pick for a reason!
The Beach Plum

L Street Tavern 603

Walking distance! One of the few year-round spots and my absolute favorite. Karaoke every night @ 9pm! On weekends, the 2nd floor turns into a top-tier dance club. If you only visit one spot, make it this one! Their lobster roll is a hidden gem in a place known for its amazing vibe and nightlife.
