LoonAsea Renovation: Enhancing Waterfront Dining with Natural Facing Stone
Perched on the scenic Hopkins Creek in Essex, Maryland, the newly renovated LoonAsea is a premier dock bar, restaurant, and marina offering an unparalleled waterfront experience. As a spinoff of the well-known Looney’s Pub chain, LoonAsea has transformed the former River Watch Restaurant & Marina into a vibrant, multi-faceted dining and entertainment destination.
A Stunning Waterfront Destination
Officially opened June 2024, LoonAsea boasts an elaborate dining room, a covered deck, and a spacious waterfront patio with breathtaking views. With retractable walls, large screened windows, multiple indoor and outdoor bars, and an expansive outdoor seating area, the restaurant seamlessly merges indoor comfort with an open-air, coastal ambiance. Guests can enjoy live entertainment on both indoor and outdoor stages, making LoonAsea a lively gathering place for locals and visitors alike.
Elevating the Aesthetic with Natural Stone
To complement its waterfront charm, the renovation incorporated Natural Facing Chesapeake Roughly Rectangular natural stone veneer, adding an authentic and timeless touch to the building’s exterior and outdoor seating area.
- Exterior Stone Accents: The rich textures and earthy tones of Chesapeake Roughly Rectangular stone veneer enhance the architectural appeal of the restaurant, providing a striking contrast against the waterfront backdrop.
- Outdoor Seating Area: The integration of natural stone creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, making the patio a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the live entertainment and waterfront views.
A Collaborative Vision for Lasting Impact
The successful transformation of LoonAsea was made possible through the expertise of Ruane Contracting Inc., who led the architectural renovation, and Bel Air Road Supply Westminster, the trusted Natural Facing dealer that provided the high-quality stone materials. By incorporating Chesapeake Roughly Rectangular natural stone veneer, LoonAsea achieves a distinctive and enduring aesthetic that blends coastal charm with modern elegance. This renovation not only enhances the visual appeal of the venue but also reinforces its commitment to providing a welcoming and high-quality dining experience.
With its exceptional waterfront location, thoughtfully designed spaces, and the timeless beauty of natural stone, LoonAsea sets a new standard for dockside dining and entertainment in Essex, Maryland.
