At Boardwalk Bandit Sandwich & Soda, we don’t just make drinks—we’ve built our lives around them. As the founders of Forgotten Boardwalk Brewing, we’ve spent years crafting and canning everything from beer and soda to hard seltzer, coffee, and ready-to-drink cocktails. That experience is the backbone of everything we do

Now, we’ve taken that hard-earned knowledge and poured it into something a little more playful: one of the world’s smallest—and arguably cutest—soda fountains, right on the ocean in Bradley Beach. Every soda we serve is made with intention, using real ingredients and the same craft mindset that built our name.

Boardwalk Bandit is helmed by Jamie Queli and Seth Dolled, two lifelong hospitality people who believe great food and drink should feel both thoughtful and effortless. Seth got his start at just 13 years old in a Chinese restaurant and most recently honed his craft slinging pies at Brooklyn Square Pizza—widely considered one of the best in the state. Jamie grew up surrounded by restaurants, but found her true passion for cooking at home in her mom’s kitchen, where everything started with care and flavor.

Together, we’ve built a place that reflects everything we love: craft beverages, casual food, and the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to linger a little longer.
