Count on previous guests’ remarks, Marvin’s Sports Bar is a favorite spot and the perfect place to be. It’s hidden in plain sight just footsteps from all the action yet it sits back just enough that you will and have to know that its there. It’s downtown, right on the beachside. It’s a very good place to watch the football games. It’s got the best chicken wings ever! And the nachos, burgers and hotdogs are equally great too. The coldest of beers never ran out. The music played on the jukebox and view of the beachside is the best! And the food, service and prices, great! Happy-hour is just really how happy hour should be at Marvin’s. The bartenders are just wonderful. The place got this neighborhood bar atmosphere and the vibe in the bar is just so comfortable.
