Kelly's Old Barney Restaurant

First I will say their New England clam chowder was SO good, prob some of the best I’ve had. Def worth the $9. The BLT and chicken wrap left a lot to be desired though for the price. Not necessarily bad, but nothing spectacular. I felt the wrap was on the small side (don’t think it was the normal jumbo wraps) and they put the chicken in the wrap flaming hot so the lettuce was being “cooked”. The olives in the wrap were a nice touch but instead of being sliced up nice they were like chopped all at the bottoms of the wrap. Blt was skimpy. The sandwiches also all came with chips which is nice but an extra $3.25 on top of an already escalated price for a small serving wasn’t worth it.

We loved the atmosphere because we can tell it’s an older place. We’d go back, maybe just try to be there for breakfast. 10/10 on soup, though!

Good food that is reasonably priced. They take your name and call when your tables ready. Friendly staff that is attentive but not rushing you. Only draw back is the air-conditioning didn't cool the inside. They have outside seating that would probably be better on hot days when you have a breeze. Definitely will go back. Loved the New England clam chowder. And I'm a chowder snob so that's saying a lot.

A surreal breakfast. Pigeon eggs, tiny sausages, and the smallest rye toast I have ever seen! It beat last year’s take out sandwich that had a transparent tomato on it. Seems like a trend.

6 bucks for a small blizzard and the ice cream was lquid when i got it plus it was all butter finger and hardly any ice cream don't go here and waste your time and money the big dipper is a million times better.

Food was good, mostly the standard diner food. What I was very impressed with is, my 2 year old was very hangry and I desperately asked our server for a little something for him before the rest of our food was ready just to keep him quiet and happy. The server brought out this beautiful bowl of fruit for him and it was perfect. The service was great and everyone left happy and full. Would definitely go back after a hike up the lighthouse again!

Kelly’s is one of my favorite breakfast places in LBI. It reminds me of coming home from fishing and getting breakfast with the family. It hasn’t really changed in there which is really cool. Love kelly’s.

Inexpensive casual family dining with an attached Dairy Queen in the shadow of Barnegat Light House. A great place for a quick burger or club sandwich before you head into the State Park whose entrance is literally feet from the front door. Be aware that they're cash-only, though -- no credit or debit cards are accepted.
