    Chicken salad sandwich
    Michelle G.

    Always worth stopping in for fabulous lunches and some unique shopping. It was a scorcher of a day and thunderstorms had knocked out the power until just before we arrived. Loved my chicken sandwich that came with a light salad and chips. Strawberry lemonade is bottomless!! The bread has changed on the pork sammie and it seemed like twice as much of a meal (wow!). Everything came super fast! The loft shopping space was a bit too toasty and there seemed to be less variety in offerings, but the fresh market options on the main floor of the main building always are worth a look-see. Sadly 2027 has been hard on the gardens and they were not as riotous as on past visits - I miss the hyacinth beans on the arbors.

    I've never heard of this until before coming today. What an adorable little place it was definitely crowded when we got here. They have a little stand where you can order some food unfortunately, I have some dietary restrictions and the menu was kind of limited for me and I was not able to release substitute anything, everything served as it is. I ended up getting the turkey sandwich and it was very good and I really liked the dressing that was on it. We walked around the market, which was super cute too. Definitely a very peaceful and enjoyable place to stop in on our way into Cape May.

    Visited here in the spring for lunch before most things were blooming. This spot is cute and it was fun to feed the chickens, but no real need to come back here. The only food that was pretty good was the breakfast sandwich, but the salad and hot dog were both pretty lacking. When we spent some time in the shop the cashier really pushed these tortilla chips on me that made it seem like they were locally made. There was a long line so I didn't take time to read the bag until I got home to find that they're made in a factory about 20 minutes away from where I live north of NYC, not even in NJ. After that weird upsell and the food being just okay, not sure that I would return.

    Friendly staff and such a beautiful place to visit, picked up some Vanilla Caramel Almond Butter while I was there, so excited to try it!

    What a beautiful property! My mom and I stopped here for lunch on our first trip to Cape May! We loved the grounds, with beautiful flowers, chickens, and tables to sit and eat. We ordered the carrot and dill bisque and harvest salad. Both were incredibly delicious! The salad was perfectly dressed and balanced out the soup nicely. To drink, we had a lovely elderberry lemonade! I would've loved to come back for dinner, but we were only staying one night.

    This is such a cute spot! the market has really nice fresh produce and local products, and you can sit in the back yard and have breakfast, lunch or a snack. The gardens are beautiful and you can even see chickens running around and check out the pigs.

    So cute!! Love the outdoor herb garden and free range chickens everywhere. It's a beautiful setting where you can find locally sourced products. Lunch was pretty great too. We got the chicken salad sandwich and breakfast roll. A great stop if you're in the area!

    We came during the week to take a break from the beach. I was under the impression that there would be more going on or more to do? The grounds are pretty and you can feed the chickens. They had a small shop and some options to buy lunch. I'm not really sure it was the best activity with kids. I was underwhelmed.

    The vibes here are just impeccable !!!! Words cannot do the grounds justice. It's just a gorgeous oasis of florals and greenery. There's a cafe so you can enjoy a coffee and a meal while taking everything in. There's also a shop that sells the cutest food and giftables. This would be an amazing spot for a wedding, and they were setting up for one when we dropped by. They also have other fun events like price fixe dinners and even a small inn that you can stay at. The food was just okkkk. I had a BLT, the bread was extremely soft and mushy and because the slices of bacon and tomato were so thick it was very hard to take a bite of the sandwich. It did taste yummy deconstructed though! My friends really liked their egg sammies though! Overall, this is a must visit when in Cape May! It's something really cool and different to do.

    We didn't have anything to eat here but I wanted to leave them a review anyway. This place is so stinking cute! The farm store has so much to offer from local food products to candles to decor. You can probably find something for everyone here. The garden was still there but didn't have much going on as it was the cold season already. From a quick glance, I don't think they had anything gluten free in their kitchen so I didn't bother investigating more.

    When I was planning my trip to Cape May, I received recommendations from several people to check out Beach Plum Farm. Contrary to popular belief, I'm not a farm person - but this didn't seem like a typical farm. That being said, I made plans to check it out after breakfast. BPF is located in West Cape May - even though CM is pretty walkable, it's best to drive here as the farm is located off gravel roads which are not pedestrian friendly. The farm itself is spread out over several acres - there's a lot of intricately designed foliage, as well as some greenhouses and even a few roosters walking about; the grounds are lovely. The heart of the farm, however, is a building that sits in the middle of the foliage - it's in here that you'll find merchandise as well as a small eatery. They have a good selection of items for purchase - pretty much what one would expect at a farm stand or general store. Some produce, meats, a few baked goods, jams and jellies, and some souvenirs. The eatery's menu, Beach Plum Farm Kitchen, has an ever changing menu and serves light breakfast and lunch items. You can take the food to go or sit at one of the outdoor tables and enjoy. It was raining when I went so I don't feel I got the best of BFC, but I really enjoyed my time here despite the lousy weather. It's definitely worth a trip over to West Cape May to check out.

    Ask the Community - Beach Plum Farm

    Do we need a reservation for lunch? We are a party of four and will be visiting on Saturday May 9th. 12:30 would be perfect

    I did not make a reservation for lunch! I went on a Friday afternoon in April and ordered at the counter for lunch. There were plenty of tables to sit outside, and the food was brought to us at our table.

    Is there a dog friendly outdoor area?

    We love well-behaved, socialized dogs at Beach Plum Farm, they are even allowed in the Farm Market but please make sure to keep them on their leashes.… 

    Is this place open year round for breakfast/lunch? Or just dinners in the off season? Thanks!

The bartender catered to the locals and had her little chitchat going. Do you restaurant owners not realize that there are people coming in and out of town at all times and on various days and we may work in service industries and maybe even the restaurants/hospitality industry I ordered whatever the burger is with the Gorgonzola cheese and it wasn't bad but it wasn't great. Between the burger the bun the tomato and the onion was hard to get your mouth around but it wasn't really worth it to stretch your mouth that far. You had a choice of fries or salad and I chose the fries. In all honesty I've been in Cape May for a week now and have eaten out nearly every day and had some outstanding fries and I would swear these were yesterday's fries if not yesterday's fries from somebody else's plate. I asked the bartender if these were the normal presentation of the fries she said "oh yes they're hand cut fries" my question would be hand cut when and fried when? They were overdone and mushy. . And after exchange the bartender adopted a pissy attitude. Here's my thing to the managers/owners of this establishment: I have worked in various forms in hospitality and customer service. I'm also an older person, consumer, frequent visitor of restaurants and bars. Take this however you will. It's a Tuesday afternoon... The servers and the service and the food should be exactly the fucking same as it is on Friday and Saturday night. Feel free to contact me if I said anything out of line. PS I'm an interim innkeeper in Cape May and I will definitely be steering people away from your restaurant even though I've had decent experiences in the past. There's too much competition out there for too few dollars. Smarten up

Reservations seem highly recommended because it seems most people came here with one. It's fine dining (price-wise - very reasonable for fine dining). It's also BYOB -- like the name says. I loved every moment of this. Service was very attentive and professional. I did feel worried that I was a bit underdressed because I had tennis shoes on, but it was not an issue. It is not a huge restaurant, but it's elegant and definitely meant more as a special night out than a casual spot. If you are looking for seafood options, look no further than here. If you want to impress someone, take them here. Now, onto the food. The bread is complimentary and we ate it all (along with our refill). The butter was freshly made, I believe. I had the winter prix fixe menu and my sister ordered à la carte. Their prix fixe and tasting menus tend to change quite often so it'll always be interesting. My sister ordered the Spanish octopus (1st course) and the Scottish Salmon. I had some of her octopus and salmon. They were both such well-made dishes. We would definitely order the octopus again. Chewy and delicate. I had the arancini, fra diavolo, and the chocolate tart. It was absolutely delicious. The arancini were small, but it was still well filled with tiny bites of clam. The fra diavolo was also very good and filling. Plenty of seafood to go around in that dish. Spicy too, which I like. At the end, we shared a chocolate tart -- and I must say, we were already full at this point. The chocolate was rich and the pistachio ice cream was perfect. We will definitely be back.

We started with the caprese salad, which was fresh and exactly what you want from a starter, followed by the summer corn soup, which was comforting without feeling heavy. The standout was the special New York strip. It arrived beautifully cooked, tender and flavorful. Service was equally strong by being attentive without being overbearing. The one misstep was the rigatoni, essentially a truffle mac and cheese with mushrooms and shaved truffles. On paper, it sounded promising, especially paired with a steak. In practice, it was overwhelmed by garlic to the point that the garlic eclipsed nearly everything else. There was also surprisingly little rigatoni pasta; the dish was dominated by mushrooms. We wouldn't order the pasta again, but that's a relatively minor complaint for an otherwise excellent meal. Grana is absolutely worth a return visit and there's plenty on the menu that we'd happily order again. It gets a relatively older crowd, but I don't mind if that food is good.

Bartenders were incredibly gracious and fun and gave great recommendations. My partner and I decided to dine here last Saturday with his parents since we were all in town coincidentally. I bring this up because we made the reservation for 6- I had been raving to them about this restaurant and really wanted to take them. My partner and I were working in Cape May for a wedding florist, and so we gave the best time frame we could based on the time we were able to leave the wedding and head to dinner. As it turned out we had to stay a little bit longer, his parents already arriving at 6 prompt. We did not make it there until 6:25 by the time we were able to park. Now, having worked in the restaurant industry nearly all my life, I understand the frustrations a host faces with the excuses and unawareness customers have. When I arrived, I apologized. I tried to explain the situation as best as I could. When I tell you I have never written a review because of poor service, I mean it. The host turned me off of the restaurant entirely, as delicious as their fried tomatoes are! When I apologized, he was so snarky it was absolutely shocking. He said as I listed what the reservation was under, "well, go find them then." HE DID NOT EVEN TAKE ME TO MY TABLE. I almost laughed at how childish his behavior was, and then it really got to me. After having finished the meal, in a timely manner where there were still empty tables (that had been empty the entire time we were there- yes I know how stacking works), my partner's father politely asked to speak with the host. The host was incredibly rude to him, even though he simply explained how his service was. I am not totally unconvinced the host had some unattended anger issues. Again, I rarely write reviews, but I so hope no one has to experience his unbelievable behavior, especially as they are about to have a lovely meal and delicious cocktails. So, I will end on the note that my 3 stars would easily be 5 based on all of the other experiences at the Cricket Club, but I cannot ignore my most recent experience, and hope it will never happen to anyone else! I myself, will never dine at the Cricket Club again, but I am sure it's just a pride thing. Good luck to those who try- but may I recommend do not be late!

Their menu features contemporary American cuisine with local and international flavors. We decided on the Snapper Tacos and Spicy Chicken Sandwich. Even saved room for dessert and opted for the Tiramisu and Chocolate Torte. We washed them down with Prosecco and Downeast Cider. Great flavor profile in all of the dishes we tried, and the food was cooked to perfection. It was clear the chef knew how to combine the best flavors and textures. Service was on point and professional. Our server was Polina. It's a bit pricey but worth every penny. Thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our evening.
