Fresh out of the emerald gulf, you just reapplied your sunscreen, and you’re settling into your beach chair with a great read under the umbrella. Then it hits you: Man, an ice cold beer or frozen margarita sure would go down easy right about now.

But you’re wet, sandy and slathered up with SPF 30, so you really don’t want to get dressed and hike all the way back up the boardwalk. Well, Bud & Alley’s brand new beach bar is precisely what the doctor ordered.

Now you can enjoy refreshing cocktails, frozen drinks and ice cold beer and wine, while your toes are still firmly in the sugar white sand.

To find this unassuming beach bar, simply walk down the new boardwalk at Bud & Alley’s Waterfront Restaurant in Seaside and pump the brakes right about the time your feet hit the sand.

Bud’s new beach bar is open daily from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more info and updates, visit Bud & Alley’s or follow them on Facebook.
