“Quite a nostalgic place.. went there for a late lunch. Service was ok. Food took forever to come out. My wife's food was cold and was sent back. Came back Luke warm at best..For the bar scene, probably a cool place.. for dinner.. I am not sure.“
“What an amazing atmosphere. The owner personally greets every patron and treats you as if you're his own family. Lauren was our bartender. Very attentive, personal, and a fun personality. I'd recommend any of the burgers on the menu. Have been coming here for years, and will continue to come as long as they're here at the shore.“
“First time, went with my wife sat at the bar on a Saturday afternoon.Lunch Specials fantastic. Beer offerings nice. Prices of everything well within GREAT.Service at the bar by a French girl named Barday... also known as Nicole. Extraordinary personality and efficiency. Everything and more one would want in a bartender.Highly recommend.“
“Patrick’s Grille is simply a great place to meet friends and have a great meal in a lively upbeat atmosphere. This restaurant is totally customer focused and is always innovating in the kitchen and raising the bar for customer service. Pats specials menu says “It’s an honor to serve you” ! They mean it and live by that mission statement. Highly recommend this great restaurant.“
“I came on a Thursday afternoon after a long Wednesday night and let me tell you for those of you that don’t know these can be some of your toughest ratings based off physical and mental prowess. The food was stellar and the service second to none. I was just speaking with my party about what kind of burger we wanted and it came out split on the plate for us. Watching the bartender behind the bar absolutely command the grill was an experience in itself. I would suggest stopping in for 4 hours and leaving fulfilled.“
“We love this place. Have been coming here for years. Great food, especially the pizza. It has lots of seating including booths, high tops and tables. The bar is spacious and the crowd is friendly. The staff is great, no matter how crowed it is everything comes out quickly. Past night had the spinach dip that was made in a bread bowl, my new favorite appetizer, feeds two people. Plenty of parking.“
“Took a daytrip to Belmar and decided to check out Anchor Tavern. The bartender Lindsey was friendly and accommodating. She recommended the wings which were cooked perfectly with their house bbq. 10/10! Manager Emerald made me feel welcomed and was very pleasant to talk to. Great service, great atmosphere. I imagine the Anchor is the place to be in the summer time. Check it out!“
“If you keep it simple here you'll be fine. Picnic table seating and a decent burger make the Chop Shop a very smart low-key choice when in the always sketchy Seaside Heights vicinity. Remember to go to the Chop Shop serving food instead of the numerous shops in the area dismantling your 2022 Camry. A very solid burger. Four, very solid stars.“
“Had my husband's surprise 30th birthday here (we've been several times before - it's one of our favorite spots!) and they were amazing from start to finish. Super easy to book, flexible with the menu, and our serve Kelly was on top of it the whole time. She made everything super easy and was so attentive to our decently sized group. Food was brought out promptly and everyone raved about how good it was. Will continue to come here for dinner and will definitely be on the top of our list for parties in the future!“
“We spent Sunday thru Friday in New Jersey. We visited Heights 27 on Tuesday night and the tacos were excellent. We returned Wednesday night to more great food and atmosphere. Everyone in my group agreed that if we lived nearby, we would visit often!“

“I have been going to this restaurant for a number of years. The staff is always lovely. Very well trained and kind. The food is superb. Always cooked well and delicious. The fireplace room is my favorite. The live music is always tasteful. Really a great spot!!“
“Red sangria is delicious and the Baja bowl was yummy. Love the fresh air dining and the peaceful view. Buy 1 get 1 free burgers is a good deal. Margarita pizza and coconut shrimp is great. Fun place. Especially when they have the fire pit going.“
“First time here. Cozy inside. Lots of character. Attentive staff and excellent service. Big pour for my glass of wine. I had the manhattan clam chowder. Lots of the good stuff-clams, potatoes and onions in a nice tomato clam broth. I also had the lobster Mac and cheese sliders. Two sliders, side of slaw and fries. Very tasty. My partner had a patty melt. Excellent beef, sautéed onions and perfect rye bread. We'll definitely be back this summer!“
“I gotta say-- the Irish Rail has really stepped up its game! When I came here years ago, the service was slow and the food was OK, but this time the service was excellent and friendly, and the food was really good! I don't know if something changed in the last 5-6 years, but keep up the good work!“
“Great dive bar with excellent bartenders. While it doesn't look like much compared to the other bars in town, it does deliver with its old style feel and more than standard drinks. You will never be disappointed or feel ripped off when ordering a drink from this place (cheap and made right).“
“Delicious food at a prime location near the beach - would highly recommend. I visited in the off season and their outdoor patio was closed but it looked like a beautiful place to hang out outdoors. The service was good but the food was even better. Their french onion soup is fantastic. We also had the chicken nachos, wings and pizza and all were delicious.Parking: It can be difficult to find parking in the summer, there is no dedicated parking for the restaurant but I imagine a lot of people just walk or bike to the location.Kid-friendliness: Definitely a kid friendly place, they bring out activity sheets and crayons for kids. It’s a casual setting.“
“I like it here. Went earlier on a Friday night for a drink with some friends. There was a good band that started before we were leaving. Lively, crowded, casual atmosphere. It's a bit cramped around the bar where we sat. The walls are close to it. We liked it anyway. Bathrooms clean. Bar food available. Nice bartenders. A fun place to go! A varied crowd of 20 somethings to 60 somethings. Casual friendly patrons and employees.“
“Fun atmosphere, nice staff, clean too but I really like it because of their food. I tried fish and chips from so many places down there trying to find the one I love most and Hook's wins! Hands down. I have had their crab cake too and I have to say that was also excellent ?“
“First time visiting here as we celebrated a long time friends' birthday. Our table of 10 were all over the board as to ordering and I didn't have the luxury of asking their thoughts on their dish. My wife and I ordered one of the specials, a broiled grouper florentine with cherry tomatoes in a butter sauce. Done just right, with an ample side of asparagus and an even larger dollop of mashed potatoes which came on a separate plate!!!!This was executed beautifully, and I have no doubt that it was the right choice. Fwiw, it's a bar, with outdoor seating, ....a real nice room on what was a beautiful night. The menu smacks of pub grub, but we were ecstatic as to our grouper dish. There is a limited entree menu and I have no doubt that the kitchen stars on any of which is on the menu or their special menu for the evening. We were there to catch the birthday girls' cousin who plays there each first and last Wednesday. Frank with his Gibson is an amazing musician who along with Tommy on saxs (soprano, tenor & baritone, along with flute) with Jerry on the congas just tore through a musical itinerary that had them covering George Benson, Carlos, War, to changing gears and doing Neil, and Dylan. They were great and not to be missed. There's so much music to be had down here, be it AP, Bradley, etc. Not many had music as what went down last night at Jacks. There were also more than a few people who were there for Frank and Tommy. Very cool place. Waitresses rock and make sure you're taken care of.“
“Dear JSS, I know it’s not PKs anymore, but if we can bring back the pool tables for the winter times next year. I understand the summer is pretty packed. But the two pool tables side by side is what I loved or atleast one. Side note - a pool league? PS: like my comment if you want one pool table back?“
“We dine at the Alehouse pretty much on a weekly basis. Everything is always fresh and delicious. My husband loves the Justin-and Turkey Justin when it’s a special (it should be a regular item!). I love their California burger, scampi wings, and chicken francaise! Our son loves their mushroom/swiss burger. We also love their tuna bites and bar pies. The wait staff is super friendly.“
“We had the Jersey Roll food truck at our wedding as an end of the night snack and it was by far the best decision! John was great to work with, and the staff who came with him were so sweet. Everyone who got a sandwich RAVED about how amazing the sandwiches were. If you have the chance to book their food truck, do it!! You won’t regret it!! :)“
“We are Staying @ Howard Johnson's and decided to try Christopher's pub . The customer service was Amazing . I found out the Bartenders name is Angel . She is such a Sweetheart. Her customers @ the bar was just as Awesome . I wish I still drank because the atmosphere was Rocking !!! 70's Rock playing . I ordered 2 cheeseburgers to go which were delicious. We could of shared 1 burger .I can't thank Angel enough . I came back a second time and ordered 2 cheeseburgers again to go but the exhaust wasn't working . So we had Cheesesteaks ,fries & onion rings . It was banging . Angel even went out of her way to carry my food to the elevator. Thank you so much . I can see why her customers love her .... Thanks Angel you are the Bestest ... Jenn“
“Overall a very good experience celebrating my birthday & a friend's. Our waiter Dylon, did an excellent job making food recommendations & checkin up on us. The food seemed a bit pricey (I know everything has gone up in price) but was delicious. One thing I would mention is when the folks come around to the table to clear places, glasses, etc. maybe coach them to wait a bit and remove mostly all the dishes at the time time. Outside of that this place is a hit! Keep up the great work!“
