Campground Craft Beer & Coffee

11/26/2025

Hello friends,

It’s true: we were finally approved by the Sea Cliff ZBA for outdoor seating. 🤯

It took forever.
Paperwork.
Meetings.
More meetings.
Math.
Architects.
Surveys.
Giving up.
Deciding not to give up.
Giving up again.
Deciding not to give up, again.

But a whole lot of you showed up. You wrote things, you said things, you stood with us when it felt like we should just lay down and let the insanely complicated process chew us up.

The Village, we think, finally saw what Campground always was and was always meant to be: a place where people actually like being around each other.

Yeah, the timing’s lousy. But it gives us winter to figure it out, to build something that doesn’t look like we rushed it.

We’ll keep you posted. You’ll see the progress, the plans, the whole thing. And when spring shows up, we’ll open the gates and finally do what we imagined years ago.

Thanks for sticking with us. It means more than we’re good at saying.

Much love,
The Campground Crew

Let’s Get Saucy at Campground

Just a quick heads-up for tonight at Campground! We’ve got the crew from Crossroads Que on site starting at 5 PM, loading up with top-tier BBQ. Think tender brisket, fall-off-the-bone ribs, smoky sides… exactly what you need when the air gets a little crisp.

It’s the perfect Friday: good music, great people, and plenty of b**rs to go with juicy mouthfuls. Invite a friend, or bring the whole gang. But fair warning: these guys usually sell out pretty fast, so don’t wait.

See you this evening for the grill, the b**rs, and a chilled-out vibe to kick off the weekend.

Cheers from your friends at Campground

Nightmare is Back.
This Halloween, the taps go dark.

Starting Friday, October 31 at 6PM, we’re turning over the lines to Nightmare Brewing Company—Long Island’s most twisted purveyors of fermented fear and flavor. Expect heavy, high-octane b**rs that taste like black metal in liquid form.

Costumes optional but encouraged. Show up as yourself, or whoever you become after a few 10% ABV pours. We’ll have a few surprises behind the bar, plus the kind of chaos that only happens when the Nightmare crew takes over.

Date: Friday, October 31�
Time: 6PM

Happy Friday Sea Cliff,

Tonight’s a special one. We’re proud to announce the release of “Work of Art” ,our brand-new Japanese Rice L***r brewed together with our friends at Garvies Point Craft Brewery in support of the Sea Cliff Arts Council.

This b**r isn’t just delicious (though it seriously is crisp, bright, and perfectly balanced), it’s also a toast to everything that makes this village so unique. Sea Cliff has always been a haven for artists, dreamers, musicians, makers, and people who for inexplicable reasons thought it was a good idea to open a b**r & coffee place in an abandened garage. This brew was created to give a little something back to the people who keep that creative spirit alive.

You’ll be able to try Work of Art on tap tonight, or grab a 4-pack to take home. Each comes with a limited-edition tote bag, designed exclusively for this release. 100% of proceeds from the b**r sales go directly to the Sea Cliff Arts Council, supporting the shows, events, and community projects that make our town so special.

And of course, it wouldn’t be a proper Campground night without some of our favorites holding it down:

TallMuthaShucka is in the house with fresh local oysters

Sid’s All American will be serving up the good stuff

DJ Sean Valentine will be playing vinyls, keeping the energy up and the dancefloor moving.

We’re honestly thrilled to be part of something that brings the community together like this. From day one, we’ve seen Campground as more than just a place to grab a drink. It’s a gathering spot for everyone who makes Sea Cliff what it is. Nights like this remind us how lucky we are to live in a town where people care, create, and show up for each other.

So come by, raise a glass, and celebrate this Work of Art, because that’s exactly what Sea Cliff is. Starting at 5PM!

See you tonight!
The Campground Crew

Hi friends,
Tonight we’re bringing a little island spirit to Sea Cliff with the Isla Pop-up at Campground. Think handmade jewelry, vintage apparel, local baked goods, and unique art, all from incredible local vendors, including our very own barista Joy.

On top of that, Tall Mother Shucker will be here serving fresh oysters, the perfect pairing with your favorite craft b**r.

It’s the kind of pop-up that makes Campground feel like the heart of the village: good people, great finds, and plenty to sip while you browse.

📍 Campground, 208 Sea Cliff Ave
🕔 All evening long, starting 5 PM

See you tonight,

Rory Couldn’t Wait for Oktoberfest

Why wait until October when Rory’s already ready for Rory-toberfest?

Tomorrow we’re bringing Oktoberfest to Campground a little early, because Rory just can’t contain his excitement. This is one of his favorite days of the year, and a chance to geek out about German b**r, proudly recite the Reinheitsgebot (that’s the legendary purity law of b**r), and show off his deep well of Bavarian knowledge.

We’ll have all the essentials:

🌭 Sausages hot off the grill
🥨 Fresh-baked pretzels
🍺 Steins filled with world-class German and American Oktoberfest brews
🎶 Maybe a little polka and the occasional lederhosen sighting

The b**r list is stacked:
Aecht Schlenkerla, Augustiner Bräu München, Weihenstephaner, Hofbräu — plus American favorites from Fonta Flora, Halfway Crooks, Sand City, Jack’s Abby, KCBC, Threes/Zillicoah/Burial, and O.E.C.

Add in Rory’s lineup of fun games, the promise of good weather, and the pure joy of gathering together, and you’ve got yourself the kind of Oktoberfest that can’t be contained to just October.

Saturday, September 20 – All day at Campground

Prost! 🍻

Sea Cliff Summer Nights keep rolling, and this Wednesday (September 17) is a big one.

We’ve got a double billing you won’t want to miss:

Tallm***ashucker serving up oysters at their seasonal best.

Paella & Co firing up a massive pan of paella outside Campground for the very first time. This will be EPIC!

Oysters and paella, b**rs on tap, good friends, and that perfect late-summer evening vibe, which will be hard to beat. Come downtown, grab some food, sip a b**r, and hang with us. No fuss, no table service, just simple and delicious eats outside with the Campground crew.

See you Wednesday night!

Rory will be hosting plenty of games and competitions to keep the energy high, so expect an all-day celebration with lots of b**r, laughter, and friendly rivalries.

Sept 24 – Sea Cliff Summer Night (LAST ONE!!)
The Wednesday night tradition continues with SID’s food truck pulling up again. It is the perfect chance to grab some comfort food, pile on the carbs, and pair it with a few great b**rs midweek. If the weather holds, this will be one of those golden September nights you will not want to miss.
