23 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Manahawkin

“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.“

“Stopped here on the way back from LBI on a very sunny and hot Wednesday afternoon. There was a long line, staff very friendly, quick, and professional. The ice was fresh and many flavors were available. I highly recommend this place and will be back when in the area. They have a gate entrance to the lake in the back which was an added plus to the location.“

“Food is meh. Food trucks need to go and they need actual table service. We need more dock and dine. This is like doc and fast food with warm drinks. Super cool atmosphere though. Very easy to pull your boat in and a great view. The food is just food truck food and it shows it.Dietary restrictions: Limited menu so customizations are limited. I have dietary restrictions that they had trouble understanding or being able to accommodate.Parking: Lots of parking for carsLimited boat slips especially if your boat is bigger.Kid-friendliness: Lots of games for kids to play etc.“

“Last year I stopped for ice cream and was so disappointed with my order. We had been going to Jeffreeze for over 22 years. I wrote a negative review that day and heard back from the owner Dennis offering a gift card to be left for me to allow them to correct my order. I have been back several times last year and today marked my 2nd trip for 2024. I have never picked up that gift card I feel it was just a bad day for the person at the counter back last year. Today the ice cream was outstanding as usual, the service perfect.“

“I LOVE HOLIDAY SNACK BAR! This place has my whole heart. I grew up going here and I never plan to stop. Food is classic, get yourself a burger and a fry and a boost slushie. True classics. The atmosphere is amazing, the decor and everything around is so fun and warming. Staff is great too! I’ll never stop coming here. I love it every single time.“

“I first saw a post on FaceBook that was showcasing the Ube ice cream and I knew I had to go!! I love anything Ube and Pandan... gives me a feeling of home (and yes I'm Filipina) . I've always seen Kohrs ice cream when I'm visiting my husbands fam at Point Pleasant but never seen these flavors before, so i was intrigued! This location is completely different that the other ones... still a part of their family but they've ventured off with their own unique flavors. First off, customer service is top notch! I wanted to make sure they still had the Ube and Pandan flavor available for when i made the hour trip out. I messaged them on FB and they replied fairly quickly! So thank you for that!! Got confirmation and off I went! Well worth the drive! Ice cream flights are such a great idea! I mean for someone who wants to try a bunch before committing... these flights are for you! They always have new incoming flavors... you just wanna keep coming back! Wish you guys were closer.. wanna expand to Cherry Hill hehe?! Ohhh and they also have other food options including lumpia! Must get them! They remind me of my moms :-) YUM! Thank you for the hospitality! I will definitely be back and bring more people with!“

“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.“

“Great dinner with new ownership last year they are now open for breakfast lunch and dinner all year on beautiful Long Beach Island. The staff is friendly very family-oriented and the food is fantastic.Kid-friendliness: Family place kids welcome!“

“What a hidden gem!! Breakfast and lunch only, but quite an array of choices (4 types of Eggs Benedict to Lobster Roll, salads platters, pancakes, etc.). You will not leave hungry. Portions are plentiful. If you are having 6 or more people on a weekend or holiday,, make sure to reserve a table or you will be waiting. Also a small bar. Outdoor dining and drinks in season. This is now the new go-to place for family gatherings. Dock side service for boats, too.“

“Great casual food uniquely prepared. A fair amt of choices of chicken or fish. Spicy or mild. Burgers are big and the servings of their other offerings are good sized. You won't leave hungry. They are somewhat pricy. Something to consider with a big group or family.“

“I come here a few times a week especially when it's warm out. I love everything about this place. The staff is super friendly every time and are patient with me and my kids. My kids really enjoy coming here as well and I try to bring them in for a special day out with Mom. They love the babyccino, Tiny Dancer and the pastries.I've met the owner a few times and every time I see her she is polite and friendly.Went last week with my 8-month-old and a friend for the beginning of our weekly brunches there while our older kids are in school. I was absolutely shocked with how the place looked. The upgrades are phenomenal and I cannot wait for another great season with you guys.“

“We had lunch with our cousins this past Thursday and the meal was fantasticThe hostess was so friendly and our server Carlos was outstanding so cheerful and patient he actually made our experience so fun and enjoyable. He is one amazing young man“

“I stopped by here last week with my wife for some evening drinks. We were staying nearby and looking for a brewery whenever we came across Oyster Creek Brewing. The brewery itself is located in a strip mall and the inside was interesting. They had 16 beers on tap this day and the tables were interestingly decorated with circles talking about plume zones and ingestion zones. After guessing it had something to do with nuclear power, we looked it up and figured out that there used to be a nuclear power plant here. After that it made more sense as did some of their beer names.As I often do whenever I visit a new brewery, I decided to go with a flight. At oyster creek brewing a flight consists of 4 beers and so I chose the critical mass NEIPA, Sky Shine black tea and honey ale, half life cranberry hefe, and the 3-eyed fish. For my first beer I tried the Critical mass NEIPA which was a little bit sweet before the hops kick in at the finish. Second was the Sky shine black tea and honey ale which was also sweet at the start before the black tea comes in and then sweet at the finish. Third was the Half-life cranberry hefe which was smooth at the start and you could definitely taste the cranberry before a finish of sweetness. Last but certainly not least was the 3-eyed fish which started off with that tart lime flavor before moving into the dryness of a gose and finishing with, I'll be damned, the taste of Swedish fish. Out of the bunch I liked the critical mass the most but it's that 3-eyed fish which I will still be thinking about.The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. While most of my beers were sweet, I did enjoy the IPA and the three eyed fish is definitely a conversation starter.“

“Be ready for country music when you get there.The business is veteran is owned and proudly displays its affinity for the military, law enforcement and first responders. Put the business name into Google maps and it will take you right to the place, even though you seem to be driving into warehouse heaven. Plenty of places to sit, just not at the counter.“

“I ordered the porkroll, egg and cheese with potatoes on a kaiser roll. I’ll have to have the rest for dinner! Porkroll cooked perfectly, the potatoes add that little something extra. The roll was soft just the way it should be. Stacked with two eggs and plenty of cheese and porkroll, this is a breakfast sandwich at its best!Get the caramel cold brew. Owner is such a nice person. Can’t wait to come back for pierogis! Will be coming back again and again and again.Parking: Nice gravel lotKid-friendliness: Games for kids to play“

“Love, love, love this brewery!!! Such a warm inviting environment!! We were welcomed right away and got the only 2 seats left at the bar. For February down the shore this brewery was busy! One of the owner's, Lisa, was behind the bar serving up beer and was so great to talk to!! I can only imagine you wouldn't be able to get in during the summer months!! I had a 5 flight (they come in 3 or 5) IPA. They were all awesome!! My husband had the Fuzzy Nuggets beer and loved it! Such an awesome place to come and hang for a Sunday afternoon. The beet garden is amazing!! For the winter months you can reserve an igloo. There is no charge to reserve one but you do have a minimum $50.00 tab and Saturdays are a $100.00 minimum tab. Sitting at the bar we meet another couple who live here full time but are originally from our area! How awesome it was talking to them and sharing stories. This brewery feels like home. They are dog friendly . You are able to bring food in. They also have food trucks. Today they offered brunch. I definitely recommend this brewery!!! Once you visit you won't want to leave. Enjoy!!!“

“Everything is good !! I've never had a bad meal here. Had breakfast today and it was worth the detour off the parkway. Omlet and i got a sandwich with over easy eggs sausage american cheese and French toast as the bread with maple syrup & “

“Beer is very good and the place is clean. Sometimes there's a food truck outside, which is a great idea.excekkent quality in the beer and place has a good vibe. The outside is nice. The only k ock would be the miserable girl serving the beer. She made you feel really unwelcome. A small smile or a friendly comment would have gone a long way. We would have stayed longer, but we were getting depressed having to ask for more service. Owners, please get this young lady some happy pills.“

“The vibe of this casual burger (plus!) restaurant is just awesome - super islandy, laid back, refreshing & relaxed. It's always busy, but we never feel rushed. There is live music outside on the patio weekly and the absolute friendliest service. Every meal we've had here has been consistently delicious and the meat they use for their burgers is just so tasty - it really stands out from all the rest. We can't wait for them to reopen every spring!!“

“Breakfast sandwiches are very generous but get the egg white cheese and veggie sandwichThe pastries always call my name. Love the cheese puff danish and sugar cookies. But everything looks amazing! Also they do a great Thanksgiving sandwich. They have a nice selection of prepared take out food. And in winter there months they offer a cup of coffee with any breakfast sandwich! ?❤️P. S. They have an all season area to dine in.“

“I got a chocolate soft serve, simple but delightful. The service was one man, but he seemed very kind and prepared the order very quickly. The place is genuinely cute, definitely feels like an ice cream place. I'd totally recommend coming.Kid-friendliness: Extremely kid-friendly. :)“

“Great spot to hang out! You can bring in your own food (great sandwich shop downstairs) and they are dog friendly. Laidback atmosphere with TVs playing sports. Lots of beers to choose from (10+) plus a seltzer and frozen slushie. Can purchase 4packs to go if you find a drink you like!“

“I visited The Bagel Shack for the first time this week and the food was amazing. Probably the best bagels I have ever had. No kidding. They are that good. Along with a fabulous breakfast sandwich, it couldn't have been better. I am hooked as a customer. And they are open ALL YEAR. Couldn't get any better. Thanks Bagel Shack!!!“
