50 Best Bars near Belmar

“They pull a great Guinness. Several of the Jameson boys are seen behind the bar, as well.“

“The food and service were excellent. Don’t skip the grilled wings—they’re the best we’ve ever had! I had the blackened chicken Caesar wrap, and it was seasoned perfectly. Everything was fresh and super tasty. We regret not coming here sooner!“

“Nice place for friends, cousins, colleague or anyone to hang out with. It has got one of best sunset view with water.

Price & Food + Beverage :-
I had not ordered anything so I don’t know about this. I was just there with them on last minute and I was full already.

Ambience :-
It was so amazing. The water view makes it more beautiful. Also there was live singing by the band, if you like it. And they played national song at time of sunset.

Restrooms :-
It was quite clean. Only thing is they’ve sensor light and it might turn off while you’re inside. So careful of that.

Our server was so nice with us and made sure we’re attended whenever we need to make any order. She was very helpful and nice.

Tips :-
It’s more beautiful if you go 1 hour before sunset. You can also take amazing pictures and videos there.

Parking: I was told they’ve both - free and paid parking. But we parked on paid. They charged around $2.5 per hour (don’t remember the exact amount)“

“Went to Jack's to see CatNip Live Music who were incredible! The food and staff were great. Great live music venue with a cool vibe!“

“Had a wonderful lunch on outside patio. Sun shining and a nice light breeze.“

“Best place in the world!!!!!“

“great sunshine and sunset“

“Great vibe and excellent service. Place is in a little dicey of a neighborhood. There is no parking lot, you have to park on the main road or residential side streets. Pork chop was a 10. Steak tartare was a miss for me. It was over seasoned with some sort of dressing and it was ice cold. Usually it’s closer to room temperature. Roasted oyster app was delicious. Big miss for me was the deviled eggs. I love a classic deviled egg and this was far from it. I didn’t like the flavor or texture. My wife had fried shrimp po-boy while was very big. I tasted a shrimp from it and it was fantastic. A nice fresh shrimp and properly fried. I didn’t try the gumbo. But it was in a very thin broth. I personally enjoyed a thicker gumbo with lots of okra and roux. My wife loved the cocktails.“

“Go here a bit for the happy hours. Drink and food specials are fine. Service is good. Would be nice to have a $10 salad on the menu and the choice of fries vs. potato chips with the mini burgers.“

“On an ordinary day, we go here for beers and a burger with cottage fries and always have the best time. I have to mention this weekend specifically though because we had our wedding after party here. The owner, Kevin, is truly one of the nicest people and always provides service with a genuine smile. He is courteous and made all of our family and friends feel welcome and well taken care of throughout our evening. Even in the busiest moments, Kevin and staff managed to be accommodating and attentive. Cannot say enough enough about this place, the family and the staff. Wonderful!“

“When reviewing their menu, we saw Birria Tacos and were immediately committed. Upon arrival we were a little alarmed that there was nobody in the restaurant! There are 2 other attached venues by same owners which had customers. But the lack of patrons was a bit of a red flag.

Our service started out with our server, Austin, telling us the drinks we wanted from the on-line menu were no longer available. But they tried to make a smoked cocktail for us first and realized they were out of smoker chips. Our large party of 8 mostly ordered Margaritas, which were decent and discounted on Tuesdays.

We ordered food including Nachos, Quacamole, Quesabirria and Birria tacos, as well as fish tacos and al pastor. The food was fresh and excellent!

We had a visit from an owner/manager as well as the chef. The staff helped us get the Phillies game on the table-side TV.

Overall, the highlight of the night was definitely the Birria, whose consommé was rich, flavorful and not greasy like some. Also the cheese level on the tacos was perfect, the meat was tender and flavorful and the fresh cilantro really made it all pop.

The second best feature of our visit was definitely the service.

My phone battery died before I could get pics of food, but the space is cool.

Highly recommend.

Vegetarian options: Nachos, Fish Tacos for pescatarians, vegetarian tacos too.“

“good food good music good people!“

“The food is really good.“

“It’s a dive bar and they advertise it as such. So I had to give 5 stars for atmosphere. But the food is surprisingly good.(try their grilled cheese) The beer selection is also very good and they get some really good music in on weekends. Outside music during the warmer months is the best.“

“Great spot! Great happy hour! Great wait staff! Kid friendly!“

“We were there last night. Chris the bartender was great and so was Johnny, the cook! The place looks great and we will definitely be back!“

“we've been going to 709 for many years, and go there quite often . service is always good, but the food has been hit or miss for the past year. they closed down and reevaluated their menu and staff. the new staff is excellent, as was the old. we have decided to continue to support 709 during their transition. Saturday's dinner was just not prepared to my liking. my fillet was medium well, when i asked for medium rare. the server was excellent, and tried everything to accomodate my requests. no fault of her own. but, the chefs should pay better attention to what they are cooking. the sushi chefs also need to check the freshness of the fish they are serving. the usually "red" tuna was gray. we tried a piece each, and decided not to eat it, and it was then off our bill. 709 was "the" place to grab a great meal.... look at my other reviews. not too sure anymore.“

“We love this place! The food is so creative, atmosphere is amazing, staff is the best around. Couldn’t have asked for more! Absolutely delishhhh! Can’t wait to go back!“

“Wow! We really love this place. Would come every week. The food and drinks are great.“

“Great place to come and have a great bloody Mary and other drinks“

“I've been going to Punt Pleasant for years and finally ate here for the first time. I've been missing out! I thought, from the menu posted that they were a little pricey, but that's because the portions are huge! The service was very nice, and you can't beat the ocean view.“

“Excellent experience all the way“

“Great atmosphere, wait on the weekend is over an hour but you can sit in their colorful Adirondack chairs and order drinks and apps while your waiting.“

“I went there for supporting a friend’s performance. He’s in the band & he’s playing that night. First time for me there, I thought it’s just for show performance. So I had dinner at the restaurant across the street. Therefore I cannot comment the food or service there, so don’t refer to that part. Just based on the atmosphere there & so many people crowded in, I believe the food & service must at least worth 4-star. Hahaha. Anyway, the band was amazing, the performance was loved by the audience. Surfing For Daisy is the band’s name. You can find them on YouTube too. They play great music! And such an enjoyment to indulge yourself in it.“

“Perfect way to spend my Birthday dinner Year after year! Always perfect service and food/drinks.“

“Food was good, service was good, and manager came over explaining why our gift card wasn't working and gave a discount for the inconvenience. The gift card not working wasn't even their fault, but I really appreciate him coming over and telling us, plus giving the discount.

We'll definitely be back because of the way he handled that“

“Whenever you buy a drink here (alcoholic or non alcoholic) they gift you with a ticket for a free small sized personal cheese pizza! Amazing deal! If you want to add toppings there is an additional $1-$2 charge. Today my fiancé and I both got sodas and 2 free pizzas for a whopping $6 ?“

“Family business at its core. My wife and I found a gift certificate, not 9 days, not 9 months...but 9 years expired. When we arrived we had mentioned to the staff the circumstances and without hesitation management honored our gift certificate. Not expected but very much appreciated. Great people and great meal. We'll be back this summer!“

“Awesome time always come here to enjoy a night out awesome drinks and great food“

“Cozy hometown atmosphere! A group of us had our Christmas party there and the owner, Kim met our every request! And of course Chef Mike delivered a fantastic meal. Our server, Hilary, was on top of everything. From our fireside table through dessert-equaled an excellent evening! Thank you for accommodating us and making us feel at home! Merry Christmas“

Karen (hope I got her name right) made sure we had a nice area by the bar to celebrate. It was absolutely lovely! The food and drinks were outstanding! Thank you !“

“Delicious food and friendly service!“
