This Secluded Beachfront Restaurant In New York Is One Of The Most Magical Places You’ll Ever Eat

Unlike other states in our country, we as residents of New York don’t get to enjoy the luxury of outdoor dining all year long. With chilly autumns and frigid winters taking up half of the year, some of our favorite restaurants may only be open for just a matter of weeks during our warmest months. Open every day from now until September, there’s one spot out on the water that’s like our own little getaway right here in our backyard.

During these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list to visit at a later date.
Right in the small village of Island Park, Pop's Seafood Shack & Grill is like experiencing a unique staycation all packed into one dining destination.

The restaurant has a handful of dining options, with indoor seating available to those who are looking to cool off and hide from the summer heat.

Another great thing about Pop's? They have forty boat slips and free docking available! This means you can pull your boat up right to the shore and choose to either dine on the beach or indoors or choose to have your food delivered right to you on your boat!

So, if the idea of dining with the sand beneath your feet and palm trees above you sounds like something you're interested in, add Pop's Seafood Shack & Grill to your 2017 bucket list. To find out more information about Pop's, click here.
