A Bethpage favorite for over 30 years, Popei’s Clam Bar is the kind of place where casual dining meets serious flavor. Known for its lively atmosphere, generous portions, and wide-ranging seafood menu, Popei’s offers a fun, no-frills experience that draws families, locals, and seafood lovers alike.
The vibe is upbeat and beachy, with nautical décor, wood booths, and walls lined with signs and memorabilia. It’s the kind of spot where you can come as you are—right off the golf course, out with the kids, or meeting friends for drinks and dinner. The service is fast, friendly, and ready to keep the good times rolling.
The menu leans heavily into seafood but offers something for everyone. The Seafood Combo Platters are stacked with shrimp, scallops, clams, and fish—your choice of fried, broiled, or grilled. The Lobster Tail Dinners, Snow Crab Legs, and Fried Calamari are consistently popular, and the Clam Chowder (both red and white) is rich, comforting, and loaded with flavor.
Land lovers will appreciate options like BBQ Ribs, Burgers, and Chicken Francaise, while the kids’ menu makes it easy for families to dine together. Everything is served in hearty portions with classic sides like fries, baked potato, or corn on the cob.
The full bar keeps things festive with tropical drinks, frozen cocktails, sangrias, and beer buckets—perfect for summer nights on the patio or during happy hour. On weekends, Popei’s often features live music or DJs, adding to its laid-back, party-friendly vibe.
For a night out that’s loud, lively, and packed with flavor, Popei’s Clam Bar in Bethpage hits the mark. It’s not fancy, but that’s the point—just fresh food, cold drinks, and a great time
