When did Pepper's move?
I thought they had opened a 2nd location, but they have just moved to the one new location in West OC. Talked to Denny-O yesterday. They just moved end of summer.

A week from today, hubby and I will be at the ocean.We may be bundled in tons of blankets and winter coats, lol, but we'll be there!
I'm used to being at the beach in the chilly weather, used to go to the ocean year round up on Long Island. Each season has it's own beauty by the water. I really miss living 10 minutes from the ocean and I could walk to the great south bay in a minute. No place beats the beach.
Don't remind me.....Can't wait to get back to the Island over Halloween.
Have a great time! I love Halloween up there. Once our little man is old enough, I plan to take him to the haunted house in Wading River. Hubby has never been there either (he's from Delaware). I'm sure you've been to it, right? You lived out in the sticks, not far from it.
My inlaws will be visiting next weekend to babysit so hubby & I can go to Ocean City for a date night. With hubby's work schedule, we can't go Fri or Sat. So we'll get there early Sunday, spend all day/night & probably leave Monday around 2pm to get back to our little boy.
Being that it's off season and that we'll be there on a Sunday night, I hope there are still some things to do/see even though it'll probably be pretty empty there. We're looking forward to some drinks, warm uninterrupted dinnerlol
and being by the ocean. Any suggestions where to eat/drink as well as site seeing activities while there for our quick trip? Neither of us has spent much time there, OC newbies.

Ok, tell us what you did now that it is 3 months later.My inlaws will be visiting next weekend to babysit so hubby & I can go to Ocean City for a date night.

My suggestions are:
You can watch the old people walking the boardwalk.
Go out to eat.
Come back to the hotel
Watch the old people walking the boardwalk
Walk down the boardwalk WHILE watching the old....well, you get by now.
I've been there every year since 1960 and I still enjoy it. I've been there in the off season only 3 times and it was a ghost town compared to the summer. There were some young kids there (probably with their grandparents). Some of the boardwalk shops are closed but many of the restaurants "on the strip" are open. A call would save you a trip.
Every year I get 2 small booklets from our hotel with the names of almost all of the restaurants and hotels in it. They're called: "Sunny Day and OC restaurant guide". They're free and well worth it.
Here's a link for the OC camera so you can see what's going on every day of the year at the end of the boardwalk.

That's my point. Old people (and btw, I mean no disrespect to them by that term) are up before the sun, love to walk, eat, and are in bed by 9pm. That's why most of the stores & restaurants close up from Nov-April.I just got back from there in mid december and it's a ghost town. Not many restaurants are open.. most have signs on there saying, "See ya next season!". Even Phillips restaurants are all closed. We mostly did outlet shopping and walking on the beach. It was a nice break from reality, though.
You must, because the LAST thing I'd want to see at the beach is SNOW!Hey! I resemble that remark!!!! Actually, Hubby and I have been going there in the Winter for years (we've been married 27 years). There is definitely not much to do for someone looking to "party," but we have always been able to find a restaurant/bar to stop into and have a nice meal or play a game or 12 of pool!!! Pepper's has been our spot for the last 5 years or so. Within walking distance (less than a block) to our regular hotel haunt, and nice people. Good food too. Purple Moose can be fun in the Winter as well. You get to see where the locals go.
There's just something about sitting in a bar on the boardwalk and watching the cold, blustery wind and waves crashing outside that makes it all worthwhile. My goal is to be there during a snow storm one time. A good Nor' Easter would be great. Don't know why, but that is something I've always wanted to see up close and personal... On the Ocean Front!!![]()

Now, I've been to most of the bars, restaurants and night clubs but I've missed Peppers somehow. Maybe I've seen it but not payed much mind to it. Where was it, since someone said they moved?
We have a place at 8th on the boardwalk so I've seen the Purple Moose.
Pepper's is right on the boardwalk at 16th Street. You have to walk down some steps to go into it.
