Restaurants near Barnegat Light

“We cannot say enough amazing things about our wedding experience at the Daymark! From start to finish Paul & Brian were responsive and collaborative. The vibe and looks of the upstairs party room were beautiful and set the stage for our Mediterranean garden party by the beach disco vibes, not that it needed additional decor but they did allow us to add our own DIY elements that only enhanced the space. The service, food, and drinks were delicious and so good! Paul and the rest of the Daymark staff were attentive and helpful from the day we inquired to the end of our wedding night, to picking up our decor the next day. Everything was just so easy and so well put together. We would 100% recommend the Daymark to anyone who is looking for a unique and colorful wedding space, with an amazing team and food. 10/10 experience and SO glad we had our ceremony (rain plan which had to be used) and reception there. They were collaborative and so helpful with each of our vendors. We truly can't wait to just come and eat the food and reminisce about our amazing day.”

“Took a ride to Viking Village expecting to see a bunch of shops, get something to eat something to drink, but the food vendors were closed and it was a beautiful day. Some of the shops were closed also. surprised with the Labor Day weekend upon us. the shops that were open were cordial and inviting, very interesting merchandise to sort through.”

“Best coffee, but prices on the reusable mugs have gotten a bit outrageous, not to mention the decrease in size of the mugs. I was looking forward to getting a few more white tumblers this year ”

“Stopped here for lunch, off season, all the food came out quickly,apps and lunch were great, Wife ❤️ the YellowFin tuna salad, Joe our server was attentive and took good care of ”

“We stopped here and got food to walk the short distance to the lighthouse grounds picnic tables for a delightful lunch. The food was fresh and well prepared and the people at the Deli were very nice. Highly recommended”

“Just got two signature sandwiches at their new location in Harvey Cedars. Both were outstanding. Both were very large and stuffed with meat. Well worth the price which really was very reasonable. Staff very friendly too.”

“Hands down best meal I’ve had in a long time. Clemmy’s deserves all the hype! The staff are the nicest people and the food was all soooooo good!!! What a special little place and a must try.”

“We're new to the area and heard Espo's was a good place to try. We were not disappointed! We noticed an item was missing from our order. When I called to let them know, I didn't even get a chance to say hello. They said "we know we forgot an item and we're making you a fresh batch and on our way" They even threw in a dessert! BTW, the food was great and the cannloli was even better...”

“The most amazing service and food!!! Please don’t miss this gem while in LBI, and make sure to get the waffle and chicken Benedict’s the sauce it’s to die for ! Absolutely in love with their food.Parking: Great parking”

“Everything about this place is amazing! Delicious, fresh, healthy food, chill atmosphere, awesome staff. I've been coming here for years since being vegan and have brought many of my non-vegan friends and family members and they love it too! The owners and staff are very sweet and personable, the food and service never disappoint! My boyfriend has celiac disease so he's extremely sensitive to gluten and very cautious to trust places without a dedicated GF kitchen, but he's never had any issue eating here and the staff always takes care of us! Extremely grateful to have this place! Cannot say enough positive words.”

“Absolutely amazing experience. Service was great. A young woman named Rayna helped us and she made the experience outstanding. Very knowledgeable and professional. Cannot beat the Waretown Bakery.”

“As a naruto and anime fan with autism the ramen that naruto gets is so good i really liked it i been a huge fan of naruto since my 3rd year of high school and anime since my elementary school ”

“Great spot that's been on LBI for a long time. Solid bar food, fully stocked bar with a variety of beers, and a great friendly atmosphere. Definitely worth a stop-in for a low-key bar vibe.”

“Me and my daughter had the chicken tacos, steak tacos, French fries, and beef empanadas. Everything was AMAZING!! We were greeted immediately by a happy man and my daughter commented later that he was such a nice man. Definitely going back.”

“Got take out last night, couldn’t believe the amount of food that we got for the $$$. Everything was super flavorful and delicious. Empanadas, enchiladas, tostadas, burritos, omg, everything was so good. Thanks for a delicious meals!”

“I have eaten breakfast there a few times and it was great !!! Went for dinner during restaurant week and it was spectacular. Everyone one of the staff were fabulous and service was excellent.”

“I randomly had a delivery order from here, and I hit the jackpot. This food was absolutely amazing. I AM IN HEAVEN. I was not prepared for food this delicious, my taste buds were attacked. Chile relleno, al pastor tacos, elotes, rice and beans. I was in cozumel 5 days ago and this was like I had never left. If anyone needs me, I'll be in a food coma.”

“Best pizza in the Barnegat/Manahawkin area hands down! Ordered a regular pie and Sicilian and they both were delicious!! Not greasy at all and so fresh when we picked up. Service was friendly also! Highly recommend.”

“Wide selection of burgers. Of course, I get the chicken sandwich. Doesn't come with fries, they have to be ordered separately, but there is a selection to choose from like boardwalk to old bay crab fries. You order at the counter and have a seat with the number you're given. Even before I sat down, they came out with my food. Everything was tasty. Half of our party went home with milkshakes. They recommend the chocolate covered strawberry shake. Staff was great, very friendly! There is a small parking lot available on site.”

“Impressed with the quality of the fresh food. Everything in the deli case looked fresh! I ordered a chicken Parmesan sandwich with vodka sauce and ricotta. It was really good. The bread was excellent and the cutlet was really big. The sandwich is huge. I also got some rolls and Irish soda bread to go and a cappuccino. The Irish soda bread was excellent. The rolls were soft on the inside but the outside was a bit tough. Overall, I highly recommend this spot. They have an area outside to eat there that is enclosed and heated in the colder months.”

“Definitely one of the top restaurants in Manahawkin/LBI area. My pasta dish was amazing, and service was great. Only downside to this place is it’s not huge and they don’t take reservations. We lucked out and got a front parking spot and table fairly quick. They also have a cool little outside area with a drink truck and a fire pit. This makes the waiting part a lot more bearable (keep in mind we only waited about 15-20 mins anyway). Overall, great experience. Certainly a spot you should try this summer if you’ve never been.”

“I rarely eat ice cream, and I rarely leave reviews. When I decide to do both, you will know that I want to talk about something good or something terrible ? I prefer to eat quality ice cream. I am an RN, and I have been on call in this area since this morning. I found this location on Google on my way home (have a 45-minute commute ahead of me), and I chose this place over a few other local places. I ordered a raspberry chocolate milkshake. This ice cream is soooooo good, and soooooo rich and creamy, that I am still in the parking lot and writing this review (not even done with the shake). The shake is thick, but the flavor of this ice cream...AMAZING. I haven't had ice cream like this since I was a kid. I do not live locally, but I plan to be back. I initially thought the cost was a bit pricey for a small shake, especially since most places don't use or make the best ice cream...and they end up drowning whatever flavor that you ask for in milk. Well, that was not the case today. The shake was thick and delicious, and it was 100% worth every single penny. The service was prompt, and the servers were courteous. I will definitely be back when I work in this area again. What a perfect find, especially before the summer months! If you know the difference between ordinary ice cream, and quality ice cream, treat yourself and come here. I can't wait to try some of the other flavors. Yummy! This is not the best picture, but I had to keep sipping...too good to stop drinking just to type?Dietary restrictions: They do have frozen yogurt...”

“What a wonderful place!! Food is outrageous!! So good! We did lunch! Very reasonable.. included soup and dessert..Kelly, our server, was so personable attentive and just overall great!”

“1st time but came recommended so my wife and I went 01/19/23 and loved it.The service from tiffany was a 10...food a9.5..their fried calamari was the best.A year later and this place went downhill.I would change my opinion and go to Dolce Liberta in manahawkin better food and better pricing and atmosphereKid-friendliness: Tiffany said it was her first day but was the best service we ever had maria was the best waitress ever she knows me as the wine guy”

“Ok I literally just left but Soprano iced coffee with coconut……. Thank you so much I didn’t know this is exactly what I needed! Having a sad last few days this just made it all a little better. You go in not sure of what you want, and the man that works there (sorry should have gotten his name) he really helps you decide. 10/10”

“Food was exceptional….. I had the fish n chips sandwich..,,, it was cooked to perfection and the flavor was awesome …… lots of fish and very tasty! I will come back just to try another meal.”

“I OFTEN FREQUENT Barnegat Bay Ice Cream! In my opinion they have the best ice cream & so many options to choose from! There a small FAMILY OWNED BUSINESS & are some of the KINDEST PEOPLE YOU WILL EVER MEET! Their ice cream is not only DELICIOUS BUT RIDICULOUSLY FAIRLY PRICED❤️‍? I ALWAYS GET the banana split They also do door dash! If your a local or even just visiting our beautiful ocean side town you have to stop by their shop! Way better then Mrs Walkers ? Barnegat Bay Ice Cream Is the best best place to go from Eagleswood to Toms River!”

“Any time I have gone into a Playa Location the staff is always friendly and helpful. With all the different ingredients and different options they are always able to give the best recommendations ! I would recommend going to any of their locations !!!Vegetarian options: Don’t be afraid to order anything on the menu !!”

“We got speakeasy pizza twice on our vacation and we're very satisfied each time. Being from NJ, I've missed the pizza. I know shore pizza isn't quite the same as regular Jersey pizza, but this was pretty good! The fries are also good too--nice and crispy, so they survive the drive back to your beach house okay.”

“Woodies is my favorite place to get lunch in LBI. they make a quick delicious burger and fries for cheap. never disappoints and the staff is truly amazing. Love when i drive by and see the old cars and bands playing.”
