I wish I could give them 10 stars…read more I held my daughter's bridal shower there this past weekend. What a beautiful event space. We were able to decorate it perfectly. A sense of soft elegance came over the room. Pat was there for every step, every detail right down to the food. Every guest commented on how wonderful the food was. The appetizers could have been your meal. The entries were beyond delicious, creamy, flavorful and tender. A big shout out to the wait staff Ashley and Dawn who were on their A game. I will be renting this space again. Thank you for helping us to create memories that will last a lifetime.

Wow! I had my wedding last Friday at Shark River Yacht Club and they far exceeded any expectations…read moreI had! From the beginning, Pat, the banquet manager, was so helpful, kind, and accommodating. The day of they had everything perfectly prepared for our reception. All of the staff was professional, and friendly. The food was fantastic! I received so many compliments, and this crowd was not easy to please when it comes to food. The atmosphere and the sunset are beautiful for any occasion big or small. I highly recommend! You will not be disappointed.

Absolutely perfect from check in to check out. Hotel is conveniently located near the beach, but…read morealso near the main street and public transit. The hotel is beautiful and it felt like every single piece of furniture and decorations were chosen intentionally. Perhaps the best part of our stay was the phenomenal, friendly and attentive service from manager Emily. Truly a gem of a person, and made sure everything we needed was available. Would also like to highlight that Emily reached out even before our stay begun to ask if we needed anything upon arrival or had any questions. All requests were met and Emily was prompt to answer all questions. I would highly recommend The James Bradley to anyone thinking of visiting. If you're looking for a quick vacation out of this city, this is the place, so easy to get to, the town has wonderful restaurants/bars and the beach was beautiful (even if it was too cold to hang out). Can't wait to find a reason to return.

The lobby and dining area, porch and sitting areas are beautiful. Our room was also quite lovely…read morebut could've used some more amenities like perhaps a place to sit and eat as we ordered food, utensils (we ended up getting some from the front desk) and a trash can? I'm all for minimalism but there needs to be functionality behind it. As for breakfast; more gluten free options please! And the soft boiled eggs we chose were either cooked too hard or way undercooked. The yogurt and fruit was delicious! Our server was great.

ASBURY PARK: a perfect stop for shopping, sipping, and staying cozy indoors with your pup…read more Convention Hall is part of the boardwalk, so it follows the same seasonal rules, leashed and friendly dogs are welcome from 9/15-5/15. Inside you will find a mix of unique shops offering clothing, accessories, home decor, gifts, plus spots to grab coffee, desserts, snacks, and drinks. The open space also hosts a variety of events throughout the year, including the Asbury Park Bazaar that highlight local makers and small businesses. One note to know before you go: the main sit-down restaurants no longer allow dogs due to the landlord's rules, but there is still plenty to explore and enjoy with your four-legged friend.

One of the coolest parts of Asbury Park is the historic architecture, and Convention Hall is a a…read moregreat example. It's home to the Paramount Theater along with a mix of shops and restaurants. It's a unique space, great for getting out of the summer sun (or winter wind), but it can also be a bit disorienting as the sound bounces all over the place and many of the shops have different hours. Still, it's a unique building, great for browsing, shopping for knick-knacks, or a decent meal. It's not my go-to area for shopping or food, but if you're by the beach, it's not bad at all!

The place was fine; a typical wedding venue. The issue was Sue, the event coordinator. She was…read moreincredibly rude. I was the bride's sister in law and she rudely tried to kick me out of the room where the bridal party was lining up. My 3yo son was the ring bearer and would not line up with the party unless I was there. You don't speak to the family like that, or any guest for that matter. It was appalling behavior. Sue was beyond unprofessional and I would not recommend this place because of her treatment.

The service was friendly, and the buffet trays were refilled quickly. Scrambled Eggs - These were cooked fine, just no seasoning. Breakfast Potatoes - They had a nice crisp with some chopped peppers. Bacon - This was good and cooked well. Breakfast Sausage Links- These were cooked too long so they dried out. Pasta Primavera - This was nicely done and cooked appropriately with plenty of vegetables. Chopped Salad - Everything seemed fresh, no issues. Chicken Bruschetta - This was breaded chicken which was tasty with plenty of cheese and tomatoes, and the right amount of balsamic incorporated too. Will I go back? I would attend.

What a great time!

Love that this venue is small / independent and they have a ticket kiosk & sell tickets directly so you can avoid "ticket fees" which were an ~40% upcharge ($9.05 "fee" on a $25.00 ticket) Def recommend buying directly from this great venue and avoiding those ridiculous charges. They also put out free cold water and cups for guests, always a welcome amenity. I'll definitely be back to see more shows at this fantastic club!

We went to the show, Bingo Loco and was very disappointed. The venue was overcrowded to the point…read morewhere it was unsafe. We could barely move in our seats, and when the show required people to stand, it was chaotic. People actually had to crawl under the table just to get out, to get a drink, food or go to the bathroom, which seemed like a serious fire hazard. There was no table service. The show itself was just as bad. The prizes were bizarre and low-quality. Things like dildos and a cardboard cutout of Snoop Dogg, nothing like the prizes you typically get at this type of event. Overall, I can't say much good about either the show or the venue. It was uncomfortable, unsafe, and not very enjoyable.

The maitre'd that led us through our initial tour no longer works at English Manor, but that was no issue whatsoever. Marlyn picked up like she had been with us from the very beginning. EVERY email was answered with ease IN THE MOST TIMELY OF FASHIONs, and all concerns (really more so questions) were addressed. Our details meeting was so thorough and I went into our day feeling completely confident that my vision would come to life. IT DID AND THEN SOME. Again, I truly believe this was all because of Marlyn and Jen. I am Type A, so this was something I was very concerned about. From the minute we set foot on the venue property the morning of our wedding until the minute we left we were absolutely blown away. Marlyn and Jen were just so above and beyond anything we could have ever imagined. I would've had Marlyn at my wedding as a guest because I love her so much. I went through my day stress free without any type of professional coordinator (which was shocking for me!). marlyn handled absolutely every single detail and issue that arose. (Again, none of which were her fault lol.) Marlyn walked around with me, carried my bouquet, made sure my phone got to my good friend to snap some photos, made sure I had a drink in my hand every minute I wanted it, and just thought of absolutely everything. She even SCRUBBED the dirt off my dress from the rain so it was perfect. I cannot recommend this stunning venue enough! Although, a team is only as good as their players. so, more importantly, i cannot recommend marlyn enough. Our guests are still raving about the venue, scenery, food, and atmosphere. We are so happy with our choice! And ILY MARLYN, SO MUCH.

I'm so glad they furnished the room with a noise maker, because my goodness, the construction by the boardwalk right now is loud and the lobby is popping. The room phone does not connect with the front desk. That works through a text system. I highly prefer to just be able to call, and this felt like one of those modern updates that are actually less convenient. I ordered room service, and here is where I would give 5 out of 5 stars - the staff here was very friendly and sweet. The spinach and egg white wrap I got? Y'all, skip it! I'd even say, please take this off the menu. I couldn't eat it. The mushrooms were chewy and tough. And the combination of everything was almost muddy? I'd suggest maybe trying to dress the spinach and seasoning the eggs. The coffee was fine. I highly preferred the espresso! Not bad, but I might go elsewhere next time.

It was so good that I would have returned back the very next day. We walked in and we're seated immediately with our reservation, and the experience only went up from there. There are plenty of staff around to make sure that you have everything you need without seeming to be too much. It's a cozy space, nothing super fancy, but really that's all you need sometimes in a neighborhood Italian joint. Everyone at my table raved about their food from the pasta Arrabiata, to the veal special to what I had which was the crab pasta. There was so much crab and the sauce was so light. I can't get over it. I ate my leftovers that same night. Looking forward to visiting soon again

Awful experience. We left after an hour and twenty minutes after not getting our food. I kept…read moreasking how much longer was it going to take and they never came back with an answer. Having kitchen experience myself as well as being human being I know things can happen. I just wanted to know. After the host came in from hanging out with his friends outside he bought us over a salad swimming in dressing as an apology . I told him we don't want that, all we want is an answer as to how much longer our food will be. Again, no answer. By the time we wanted to leave our waitress and servers were no where to be found so we were kind of stuck as I was not going to walk in back to look for someone. Now, nobody wants to walk out of a restaurant ( except the owner in this case) but over an hour with no explanation is a little much. We finally caught a server who got our waitress as we waited by the door. Her only excuse for us was " I don't know what to tell you"
