38 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Cape May

“Always go when in Cape May…fabulous food“

“Had pizza and the Smashburger Both were really good. The service was excellent too. I will go back there again before I go to other restaurants in the area“

“We dined on Friday, 10.31.25 supporting the Cape May Restaurant Weekend. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her Red Snapper Alla Plancha that was impeccably simmered in a tomato-saffron cream sauce along with the delectable additions of mussels, rock shrimp, creamer potatoes and confit fennel. I had the wonderful opportunity to sample the Grilled Duroc Pork Chop with aged gouda potato purée, ginger glazed vegetables, sherry wine cream sauce and seasonal mostarda that was done to absolute perfection. I haven't cleaned my plate like that for years! My wife echoed that it was one of the top three dinners that we have ever had as a couple....Our service was second to none from the expediters, bussers and our very warm and personable server, Anna, who just added to the overall dining experience. A five star event for sure!“

“Great Food and Awesome Location. Love it!“

“Delicious hidden gem in Cape May!“

“Excellent experience. Arrived between servings so grabbed takeout for the deck. Space is lovely and scenic. Nice views of the boats and birds without being too windy bc the buildings and boats shield the deck. Clams, broiled lobster combo, fish sandwich, kids chicken, all exceptional. Def will go back. Grabbed soups to go on way out and can’t wait to try them.“

“GREAT FOOD and great service!“

“I have now been to Behr Brewing on several occasions, I like it's quaint and relaxed atmosphere...but mostly I like the beer, I'm not sure how I would describe my pallet but my visits to numerous other breweries I often taste beers that just aren't for me. I can honestly say every time I have visited Behr all of the beers I have tried are very drinkable and I have enjoyed every single batch. very satisfying for sure.“

“Superb craft cocktails made from on-site distilled, farm-to-bottle spirits. Whiskey, bourbon, gin, rum and vodka. Chill, relaxed atmosphere on a preserved farm craft distillery.“

“Yesterday we went to Cape May Winery with a bachelorette party group. We had a great experience from booking, too ordering our wine and enjoying our time in the lower cellar room. Special shout out to the amazing table of guests next to us that included 3 married couples that each had been married for over 25 years. They stopped at our table to give our bride-to-be some amazing wedding and successful marriage advice. It was a really special visit and I am so glad we chose to come here! 💜“

“Always a fun time at CView! Great, casual atmosphere with good food. Brianna is a fantastic bartender!“

“Great food, and fast! Had a single bun and my only regret was not getting three! My first time, definitely not my last - it’s now going to be a regular Cape May stop. Great eats!“

“These are the best things ever!! In the summer you can’t get near the place because it’s so busy. The like is worth the wait! They have mail order and we have ordered three times! The more u order the better the price. This last time we ordered 24! The owner of this store is super nice and treats his employees so good! Def MUST HAVE!!“

“Great food and a beautiful setting to enjoy it!!!“

“We had a great time at Stowaways. Pat was the best!“

“Me and my coworker stopped in for sandwiches and had a great conversation with the owner. The sandwiches were excellent and the conversation, even better! Next time I’m in town, I will be back!“

“Always good!!They do a great job!! The best!!“

“the calzones are fantastic!!“

“I ordered a veggie burger & sweet potato fries, pretty much my go-to at a pizza place. It was tasty but better than anywhere else because of the experience. I saw you give away food to someone in need, I saw you show compassion & kindness. I will support this business in the future! “On the way to Cape May” ❤️“

“awesome definitely will be back!“

“I live in OCNJ and usually travel to Lancaster PA for my favorite ice cream, now I only have to go to Cape May! This place is unbelievably good! These other people not giving 5 stars definitely don’t know good ice cream! We will be back often! Probably more often then we should lol“

“Got 8 beers in two flights, didn't even spend thirty bucks and there were absolutely no misses. I highly recommend their saspirilla beer. And the homemade snack mix was great. I highly recommend this place, and I will be back.

And for the non-alcoholics their root beer is kickass.“

“Always a great time! Love the Atmosphere!!“

“Excellent wines, opportunity to meet the winemaker, and beautiful setting. Highly recommended.“

“Delightful experience, beautiful property & wonderful ambience. LOVE that our Cape May Court House has such a special place for an elegant Sunday brunch. We sat at Katie's table, and she was delightful & efficient. We all enjoyed our food - my husband raved about the Ricotta Pancakes. Our friends had the omelet, and the Breakfast Burger. Raves all around! The pastry basket contained a delicious assortment; Katie generously brought out a second basket. We walked in with a bottle of sparkling Rosé to accompany brunch - an ice bucket magically appeared without us saying a word! The friends we dined with had a family event in the back solarium two months ago, which was wonderful according to their review. Brunch was absolutely lovely, and set the tone for a relaxing Sunday!“

“Great coffee and atmosphere!!“

“Fresh and interesting menu. Everything we had was perfect. Smoked salmon and noodle aps were both great starters to share. Scallops, crab cakes, swordfish entrees were delicious. The desserts were lovely and generous portions. Not surprised to hear that this is a perennial favorite for many regulars.“

“awesome definitely will be back!“

“Great food and the best coffee made by Chis. Can’t wait to come back and visit“

“First time customers and could not be happier. Wow, just Wow...... this will be a go to place going forward when we are down the shore“

“If you’re looking for Cape May’s hottest subterranean hotspot, look no further than The Boiler Room. This place has everything: wood-fired pizza, Caesar salads that slap, neon lights, exposed brick, and a sound system that’ll knock your Birkenstocks off. And the staff? Honey. First, let’s talk about Matt, the food and beverage manager. He’s like the Wizard of Oz behind the curtain, pulling levers of flavor and hospitality. Ever had a martini that made you cry from joy? You will. Now add Johnny and Kyle behind the bar—Cape May’s dynamic duo. They pour, they shake, they stir, and they SERVE. Watching them in action is like seeing a choreographed dance, except everyone gets a drink at the end. Now let’s get into the pizza. This pizza? This pizza is like if Naples and Brooklyn had a baby that went to culinary school in Rome. It’s crispy, chewy, saucy perfection. And don’t even get me started on the Caesar salad—it’s crunchy, briny, creamy, and anchovy-whispered. I’d write it a love letter and send it first class. But that’s not all. When the sun goes down, this place transforms. The Boiler Room becomes an underground concert hall of dreams. The live bands? They funk, boogie, and rock ‘n’ roll like it’s their job (because it is). Think Parliament meets Tom Petty in a dance-off judged by Prince. They groove party anthems and timeless classics that’ll have you screaming, “This is MY SONG!” while you dance like it’s 1999. The Boiler Room has everything: brick oven dreams, Caesar epiphanies, killer cocktails, craft beers, sultry lighting, beautiful people, bar legends, and music that hits like a vintage disco ball to the soul. So if you’re in Cape May and you’re not at the Boiler Room, what are you even doing with your life? Sent from my iPhone“

“Quick service and great fresh food.“

“My sister and I stopped by Port Marina for a quick late lunch, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our day! The atmosphere is beautiful, with stunning marina views and a relaxing coastal vibe. The food was fresh and delicious, the drinks were excellent, and everything was presented beautifully. A special thank you to Ava, who provided attentive, friendly service from start to finish. She made us feel welcome and checked on us just the right amount, making for a wonderful dining experience. If you’re looking for a great waterfront spot in Cape May with delicious food, great cocktails, and exceptional service, Port Marina is definitely worth a visit. We’ll absolutely be back!“

“Dan & Nicoletta were amazing!! We came with 40+ people for an engagement celebration and it was OUTSTANDING. Food was great, drinks were amazing and never empty. Such a great spot to have a celebration at! And shout out to Mike for the cleanest glasses in all of New Jersey!“

“I will come back because I like the place but I just want to say that is has downgraded over the renovation.“

“I went for lunch and dinner on Sunday. Billy and Irina were the servers. They were so nice and attentive. I will definitely go back my next trip.“

“We enjoyed this local spot for breakfast. Love that it’s so close to the spot we camp. Came for the first time & definitely will be back to try more of their menu.“

“My husband and I come down every summer...you are always our first stop when we hit town. Absolutely love your food and atmosphere! Nick took care of us and he was phenomenal! He was so kind, accommodating and truly just a great person. We stopped on our way out to let the manager Erik know how great Nick was. It wasn't just a thank you and move on...Erick, despite the place hopping took the time to ask us what we had...did we enjoy the menu...customer service all around was 150%. Highly recommend the rooftop, Crab Dip with homemade pita chips, Brisket Bites, Fish tacos and the very best Blood Orange margarita on the island!“
