4 Best Dive Bars near Asbury Park

“We had the most amazing afternoon at Asbury Lanes with our friends and family, and we cannot recommend this place enough.

Nicole was our go-to throughout the entire visit, and she was absolutely phenomenal. Without us having to ask a single thing, she anticipated every need our group had; including accommodating the little ones in our crew. She was thoughtful, proactive, and genuinely made the experience feel effortless for everyone. She truly deserves all the recognition - 10/10!

Beyond the incredible service, Asbury Lanes itself is such a fun, unique space. The energy was great, the setting is cool, and bowling here felt like so much more than just bowling — it was a full-on good time. Our whole group had a blast, kids and adults alike.

If you’re looking for a fun group outing in Asbury Park, this is the place. Highly, highly recommend and if you’re lucky enough to have Nicole taking care of you, you’re in the best hands possible.“

“I just had the best Cheeseburger that ever had at the Bond Street Bar and Grill that is tucked away and almost hidden on 208 Bond Street in Asbury Park, NJ. The It is a small bar and grill with a dark almost mystical ambiance on a small one-way street. The bar has a warm and welcoming personality featuring great food, good vibes, friendly staff all in an inviting space of a classic pub atmosphere.“

“We split the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich and the kitchen sink fries, and it was ok. I guess it would be good bar food, but the fries weren't seasoned, so it was good with the sauce they put on, but when we got fries with the sandwich, the plain fries were unseasoned. We didnt really think this should be under "dive bar" so yea. Refers to food as nips and idk if it was the chicken tenders or just some other item used“

“It’s a great beach bar w/ friendly folks, good food & cold draft beer!“
