The Boardwalk Pub gets an extra star just for the location. It's surrounded by parkland and has a big patio within eyeshot of the beach volleyball courts and the lake. It's a great place to go for a casual celebration.
The food is standard pub fare with some pastas and pizzas. The ribs are weirdly unpredictable - they were delicious the first time we went, and my husband obsessed over them for weeks. When we returned, they were good, but entirely different. A third visit brought ribs that were very nice, but not as good as before. The rest of the menu has been fine, but the club was made with deli sliced chicken, not cooked on site.
The beer selection is very good, and I've had excellent recommendations from the waitstaff - I had my first Tankhouse Ale from Mill Street Brewery there; the waiter even brought me a little glass of it so I could taste it before ordering a pint!
Parking can be difficult on beautiful summer days; be warned!
