Food choices at Atlantic city boardwalk

in History and Culture


By the time you walk the entire Atlantic city boardwalk, you are sure to work up your appetite. There are many places to eat, from casino buffets to small street vendors. Five casinos remain operating on the boardwalk – Tropicana, Caesars, Bally’s, Resorts, and Hard Rock ( former Trump’s Taj Mahal). Caesars has the best buffet on the boardwalk and is followed by Borgata in the Gardner Basin. However, if you are a budget traveler or simply are tired of buffets, you can always find cheap and tasty eats on the boardwalk.

Famous Bill’s Gyros at the boardwalk never closes

Visitors to Atlantic City may want to try some of the food that has been popular on the boardwalk for a long time – gyros and funnel cakes. For the adventurous ones, there are fried oreo cookies, Snickers bars, twinkies, pickles, and fried ice cream.

From funnel cakes to fried anything – Oreos, Reeses, twinkies, jalapenos, pickles, and even fried ice cream

Of course, there is a choice of other grab-and-go food such as pizza, hot dogs or burgers. For those who like regular restaurants, there is Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville and Landshark Bar and Grill. Rainforest cafe will appeal to families with kids.
