28 Best Vegan Restaurants in Cape May

“Excellent service from Athena. Really good food. Still BYOB but now have Meadowcroft wines. Very nice wine very reasonably priced.“

“I have used Lucky Bones’s Eric three times in the last five years for catering parties at my home/in my yard. Twice I also booked waitresses with my party. The food is always delicious, the service reliable. We ran out of chicken tenders for the kids once and they brought over a new batch! Everything is set up as ordered and arrives on time. You can’t go wrong with them for your party. My father’s small after-funeral reception was in their back room and my husband and I eat at the restaurant at least once a month. Highly recommend.“

“Absolutely delicious! We stayed at La Mer and were very impressed by the food and staff. I wish I could’ve tried everything on the menu. I had the following: Octopus appetizer Avocado Toast Rigatoni Cape May eggs Benedict All fresh and delicious!!!“

“Great food and atmosphere“

“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!“

“We love James at the front of the house and the super talented chefs - such a unique and fun experience. Three of us had the vegetarian tasting menu and it was amazing! I wish there were more restaurants like this! Thank you!“

“Our favorite place to get ice cream! Great staff, great vibes and great ice cream💖“

“i really love this place with the exception of that one cashier in the retail section not the bakery. she is absolutely miserable, belligerent, and nasty. It's almost like she's jealous of the people spending their hard earned dollars. She needs to retire.“

“Enjoyed The Y.B. during restaurant week. Was our first time and we will be back. Everything was fresh and well presented. The service was excellent. I’ve probably walked past this little gem a hundred times and never stopped in for a meal. I’m just sorry I didn’t try it sooner! Thanks for an excellent meal! We can’t wait to come back! Cheers!“

“Excellent pizza! I have been in cape may a lot this is the best pizza I have found! My family’s go to for pizza!“

“EXCELLENT FROM SOUP TO NUTS !!!!“

“I almost hesitate to write this review because I want to keep it "secret" but I think most people already know about it. We ate in the "Secret Garden" in the back of the Virginia Hotel and it was simply incredible. Even in mid November, the temperature was perfect thanks to the heat lamps. The food was nothing short of fantastic and our server, Mickey, was very personable and attentive. I also got to see how she handled a "difficult" table and she was kind and professional. Very impressive. For dessert, we ate on the Virginia Hotel Porch and it was so much fun. The Virginia Hotel and Ebbitt Room are Jersey Shore gems.“

“speedy, great service with no complaints! ben and jerry’s has a wide variety of flavors posted up on their wall before you come in as a little menu, which are all kosher and any dietary restrictions are clarified under the flavor — where non-dairy is separated under the color geeen and sorbet is separated in pink. the ice cream here is highly delicious and is hard to melt but it still doesn’t feel rock solid when you’re eating. the staff here are very polite and the introductory board for the employees is really cute :) i love the message that ben and jerry’s spreads with classic flavors that we all love!“

“Stop in every morning I'm in Cape May. Coffee is always very good and the staff are always smiling and friendly.“

“Originally got the ube soft serve and it was amazing, solid 9.5/10. Came back for the matcha soft serve (with coconut flakes added) and it was transcendent. Probably the greatest ice cream i have ever had in my life, and as an avid matcha lover it was glorious. I genuinely do not think anything will ever top it. I think after the first bite i ascended to heaven, high fived god, and only returned so i could eat more of it. The texture? Perfect. The sweetness level? Just right. But most of all, the matcha flavor was strong and high quality- not like other ice creams I’ve had where it tastes like vanilla with a whisper of low-quality green tea. If you like matcha, i am literally begging you to get it. Xoxo“

“My husband and I come to Cape May every year for our anniversary we have our favorite places that we love to visit this was our first visit to Pacino's bistro and we went back the night after to pick up again!!! The food was phenomenal and the wait staff were very hard working and friendly!!! I am server myself and this not an easy job but they were excellent. The ambiance in restaurant made the experience that much better. Cannot say enough good things about this establishment!“

“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“

“Always a great experience awesome bartenders and food“

“We love Port. Always a great breeze and view at the outdoor bar. Drinks, salads, seafood, oysters, and sushi are just perfect. And, Luke is one of the nicest and friendliest bartenders in the CM area. We will be back.“

“Terrific food. And when we had a little problem with our table Manager Jackie went above and beyond to make it more than right. She did this with grace and professionalism. We’ll be back.“

“Our family loved it here, first time this weekend. They have a huge menu, and all three meals came out fantastic. The pork and sauerkraut was the best I've ever had, very tender and flavorful. The ribs and shepherd's pie were fantastic as well. They had indoor and outdoor seating, and very easily accommodated us with a stroller and little one. Drinks were good too, my apple cider mule was perfect. Definitely will go back.“

“First time rating here at this BYOB and was pleasantly suprised with the quality of the food. We had Tortellini Alfredo and Lasagna for our main courses and the were both outstanding. We ate outside since the weather was so nice.
We will go back and try different mains next time.
Very affordable, especilly since they are a BYOB.“

“Quick service and great fresh food.“

“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.“
