14 Best Sports Bars near Manasquan

“Found this place towards the end of our summer rental in Manasquan. What a great find! we watched the Rutgers game and talked to Elise the bartender for quite a while. She was so nice! burgers were awesome. met a couple up for the week from Florida who frequent the Rail every year. we will definitely be back next summer! Highly recommend this local pub.“

“The new owners are doing a great job bringing this local landmark back to life!!!“

“A must when in Monmouth County. Thin, pastry like crust that has the perfect crisp, antipasta chopped or not, New England clam chowder to rival Boston. It is always busy and filled with both regulars and Bennies, anyone who manages to find this hidden gem along the Route 35 bridge by Belmar, will keep coming back. If you're bold, take their t-shirt challenge and eat an XL Pie to go home with pride.“

“While in town for a long weekend get-a-way, we ate here for dinner one evening. We chose this restaurant because they had outdoor seating and were dog friendly. We brought our two boxers; Hank and Izzi with us and instantly fell in love with the staff. Everyone was so welcoming. We ordered wings and steak and cheese egg rolls. Everything was so good! Wings were cooked to perfection, extra crispy! The steak and cheese egg rolls were to die for! I literally could drive back from PA every night for these! A must if you are ever here. Staff was amazing! Our servers were top tier! I am sorry I don't remember names :( but service was impeccable!“

Stopped in on tge way home from a event.
The one thing about chain restaurants is they all look the same and the menu are relatively the same. Which is a good thing. But tgey should allow them the opportunity to have 2 or 3 menu item that are independent from cooperate and their sister restaurants.

Mimi was exceptional with her service. Along with smile and ability to read people.
Our food was all typical for Applebee's. The exception here was that tha manager walked around to each table and asked about the food and service .
Atmosphere, hey cooperate. It's time to change a few things around and clean up the look.
This place is children friendly and parking is plentiful along with handicapped friendly.“

“Happy Hour! great personal pizzas.. Good Vubrations at the Shore!“

“I don’t usually write reviews, but I had to for Steven. He’s amazing behind the bar super friendly, quick, and makes you feel welcome right away. Honestly, I’m shocked he doesn’t have more regulars because he’s the kind of bartender people come back for. Not only is he great at mixing drinks, but he’s also an excellent server attentive without being overbearing, and he really makes sure you’re taken care of. If you’re looking for a spot with both good vibes and great service, definitely come see Steven. best worker there by far ! ❤️ super proud of you“

“Solid pub/bar fare. You can't really go wrong with anything here, it's all just pretty damn good, but won't blow you away either. Let's be honest, you aren't walking into this place looking for a Michelin star quality meal, you want some wings, maybe a burger, and a few beers and yeah, you're gonna be very satisfied with what you get. 👍“

“Great place for so many reasons. Free pizza when you buy a drink and it's actually pretty good. Very diverse and friendly patrons. Great vibe/atmosphere, whether you're indoors or out. And since I live off the train line, I can get there and back without driving.“
