This is an article about where to eat on the Ocean City Boardwalk at the Jersey Shore.

The waves of the ocean; the glistening of the sun; the silky sand - all are great, but where to eat? If it's great food you're looking for, then you must stumble upon the Ocean City Boardwalk at the Jersey Shore. From the saltwater taffy to pizza and everything in between, you will surely find something here.

I recently was sent out on a mission to capture the fine eateries of the Ocean City Boardwalk and found these great places in my travels:

Mack & Manco Pizza
Primo Pizza
Pisa Pizzeria
Giuseppe's Restaurant
Primavera Pizza and Pasta
3 Brothers from Italy Pizza
Curly's Fries
Jilly's French Fry Factory
Philly Twist Grille
Fralinger's Original Salt Water Taffy
Steel's Fudge
Fudge Kitchen
Shrivers Fudge & Salt Water Taffy
Kohr Bros Frozen Custard
Stewarts
Boardwalk Peanuts
George's Candies
George's Homemade Ice-cream
TJ's Funnel Cakes and Lemonades
Litterer's Food Court serving Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
Colony Walk featuring Funnel Cakes by Curly's Fries, Hulla Grill, Hulla Grill's Fresh Seafood, OPA Gyro's and Crepes and the Bashful Banana

I must say that being a local, I have always enjoyed Mack and Manco's Pizza. Not only is their food great, but service as well. Too crowded? No problem, there are three Mack and Manco's located on the Ocean City Boardwalk. Did you know that Mack and Manco's is now located inland? That's right, Mack and Manco's can now be found in Somers Point on Bethel Road, about 5 minutes from Ocean City.

Have a sweet tooth? try Kohr Bros Frozen Custard, with dozens of options to choose from, there is a taste that will delight everyone. My favorite is their mint chocolate swirl, something you rarely find in a frozen custard. On the other hand, if it's old fashioned handmade ice-cream you crave, George's Handmade Ice-cream is the place for you. Many flavors and toppings to choose from.

Looking for something familiar? try Stewart's where they have an array of a menu with Hot Dogs, Hamburgers, Shakes and more. It is truly a treat to see them upon the Ocean City Boardwalk.

If it's fries you crave, then Jilly's French Fry Factory is the place for you. The best fries in Ocean City all together. Hand's down, Jilly's French Fry Factory is the best.

A trip to the shore is best ended with Ocean's City's best Funnel Cake at TJ's Funnel Cakes and Lemonades. Also know for their spectacular lemonade as well. Here you will also find a huge selection of cotton candy.

Candy? Did someone mention candy? Shrivers Fudge & Salt Water Taffy is where you can have it all. Amongst fresh fudge and saltwater taffy, they also specialize in rock candy, macaroons, mint rolls, chocolate and more! They also specialize in Sugar free candies and confections as well.

Well, there you have it - the best places to eat on the Ocean City Boardwalk.

Bone appetite!
