The Shellback Tavern came to life as The Surf in 1952. Famous for there pizza and reasonably priced drinks, the Surf became an instant hit on the beach bar scene. The original owners were Don Hartsong and Ed Jamison. In 1973 local bartender Richard Swartz and his partner Jim Korshall purchased the bar and renamed it the Shellback Tavern. Jim sold his interest to former Hermosa councilman Jack Wood. Jack sold to local resident and patron Steve Petroff in 1976. Steve and Richard remained partners until May of 2000. Manhattan native Bob Beverly took over ownership in 2000 and still owns the Shellback today.

It's a cool little bar walking distant from the beach. It is perfect after a long day of watching the AVP Volleyball and running into locals who I know.

you can't get any closer to the ocean in Manhattan. Must be why the fish tacos are so good.
