The Linwood Restaurant and Cocktails is Bay Shore’s newest/hottest American Gastropub featuring Quality Fare, Thoughtfully Crafted Cocktails, Beer, & Wine in a visually stunning yet comfortable environment!
At the End of Main Street where your night will only just begin...
A little history on our namesake:
The Linwood Hotel: John B. Pullis established the Linwood Hotel in about 1888. Located on the Southeast corner of South Clinton Avenue and Linden Place, the Linwood Hotel temporarily housed WW1 Navy flyers from the Bay Shore Aero Station while their barracks were being constructed. The Linwood was destroyed by fire on October 11, 1925.

We’re so excited to bring Whalers to Bay Shore and share our love of amazing food and great drinks with the community. Our menu is modern American cuisine, so you’ll find the classics that you’re used to but with our own little spin. In addition to our casual dining and nightlife, we also offer full catering services. With huge windows and views of the Great South Bay, Whalers will be the perfect location to host your next event!
We will do our best to accommodate your requests, but we cannot guarantee where you will be seated. Additionally, reservations are unavailable for dockside dining, as outdoor tables are first come first serve.
Whalers is modern and fresh with a nod to what it’s like growing up on the Great South Bay. Located right in the middle of the action down on Maple Ave, we are looking forward to getting customers who live locally, but also those who are heading over to Fire Island.
We look forward to serving you!

Since 2006, The LakeHouse restaurant has been the jewel of Bay Shore, NY. In the summer of 2016, owners Eileen & Matthew Connors and Jay Gut moved locations to a brand new dockside treasure. With stunning views and multiple fireplaces, comfortable seating for 100+ guests, two lounge areas, deck overlooking the Great South Bay, and both an indoor tavern room and a waterfront bar, The Lakehouse is touted by many as “one of the best restaurants on Long Island.” At night, the deck is illuminated, as is the waterfront lounge area where guests can congregate for after-dinner cocktails. This New American fine dining experience is not to be missed. The Lakehouse can now be reached by boat as well, as guest dockage is available at the new gorgeous bayside locale.
*Please note that we not take reservations for particular tables & we cannot promise a particular area or table.

    My husband and I went to this restaurant last night for a date. The location is a little smaller on the inside but that doesn't take away from how amazing everything was. From the mixed drinks to the appetizers, to the main courses.... nothing less than amazing! We were seated right away, our waitress was attentive and knowledgeable without being overbearing. The restaurant was clean and comfortable. I 100000%%% recommend and will be going back again.

    We went for an early dinner (5:30) on a Monday evening so the restaurant was not overly crowded. Our server was very pleasant and attentive and the food was great. Portions were large (enough to bring home leftovers). Had a wonderful evening.
