On the Waterfront

On the Waterfront, located on Ocean Front Walk in Venice, is a classic Venice establishment. Grab an Erdinger or Bitburger and watch the foot traffic pass … or grab a burger and fries and some iced tea. There is always a lively crowd at the Waterfront playing pool or throwing lemon wedges at the trash cans outside. (You are not supposed to throw the wedges, and will get yelled at for doing so .. so watch out!) Don’t plan on using the restrooms, as they never seem to be all that clean … but what do you expect of a boardwalk beer hall?
