Part of the Gay Asbury Park Guide — bars, events & things to do.
Asbury Park, New Jersey
Asbury boardwalk lounge with craft cocktails, tapas and an ocean deck.
Watermark is an 8,000-square-foot cocktail and tapas lounge on the second floor of the First Avenue Pavilion, overlooking the Asbury Park Boardwalk. The beverage program is centered on house-infused spirits and ginger beer. Food service is restricted to seasonal tapas, including vegan-friendly savory and sweet plates. The space features a large outdoor deck for summer and an indoor fireplace for winter operation. Weekend nights feature live DJs, and the venue serves as a partner location for the Asbury Park LIVE summer concert series. There is no reservation system; seating is handled on a first-come, first-served basis for both the lounge and the ocean-view deck.

The rainbow flag has meant something specific since 1978 — one word per stripe, assigned by the man who dyed the first one. What every color means, why two stripes are gone, and all the other flags.

Drag is an art form, not an identity, and what people assume about it is off. Here's what a drag queen actually is, where drag came from, what the job pays, and how the illusion gets built.
