Expensive but the food is good and it’s one of the only ways to legally drink while you’re on a NJ beach.

Racist bartenders asking to see cash up front to black customers. Disgusting behavior would never step foot in this place again. All money is good money.

I have never been so disappointed !! $25 to park- $10 cover- CASH ONLY. And then to top it all off we were told that we couldn’t sit at the bar (it was around 8pm) because “when the kids come they’ll be no room for them to order drinks””!!!!!

The security guard denied me severe because of my severe animal claiming that he knows the law and he got everything wrong.1stCan you ask for proof of service dog in NJ?You may not ask about the nature or extent of an individual's disability. You may not require proof that the animal has been certified, trained or licensed as a service animal. You may not require the animal to wear an identifying vest or tag.2ndAsking me to do things differently because of my animal is a denial of severe.3rdTelling me a panic attack is not a physical thing that my animal is trained to help me with is only emotional.4thPrivate property. Yes that's why I spent time and money so he could go everywhere with me.5thSevere animals require paperwork.AnswerIn the United States, service dog certifications and service dog identifications are not legally required. Staff at a public establishment cannot solicit documentation, such as proof that the animal has been certified, trained, or licensed as a Service Dog, as a condition for entry.Photo below is a riverside medical center last week

Donovan's reef needs to stop feeding alcohol to people so much. There's at least four or five videos of drunk drivers being pulled over leaving. Donovan music with your license if they keep letting people leave drunk and

Went for breakfast. LB was super welcoming, as were the other employees. This place gets a crowd in the afternoon and evening, but was nice and quiet in the morning. Right on the beach with a great view.

They won’t let you back in after 11:30 even after you paid to get in unless you are a girl or know one of the managers. Trashy old men as bouncers who do not know what they are doing.
