Holiday Snack Bar - LBI gem - American Near Me - Beach Haven, New Jersey

Best part of this place is the ambience. The food is nothing to write home about, burgers are small, lacking flavor. The fries are terrible. Definitely frozen fries, no seasoning at all, unless you get the dune fries which are seasoned with Old Bay. A place like this can do so much better with a little bit of effort. Bigger burgers, that are favorable and home cut fries would be My suggestion, especially if your big sell item is burgers and fries. I would also include a crab cake sandwich to be included in the menu, being a beach town. We have been here many times years ago, but seems like it changed. read more

The food was not good and overpriced! Two burgers two cheese fries a soda and a milkshake. $56! Maybe if the food was good I'd be okay with the price but it was not. The ambiance is the best part about this place. I wish they never sold this restaurant to the new owners. read more

Nice little beach snack shack. Good burgers, and fries. Good service by nice teens. There is a picnic table or two, but it's mostly take out. Five Stars read more

Came in for a mint chocolate chip Milkshake. But with a plot twist...I brought in my own double shot of espresso to add to it. The young man who waited in me looked momentarily surprised but made me a milkshake worth writing home about! It was delicious. I loved the decor and vibe of the place and will return to dine on my next LBI trip. Hopefully soon!!!! read more

Yum yum yum. This place was a 10/10 for me. As soon as we got there it was such a cute chill vibe, we sat ourselves outside but there was availability at some of the barstools inside. Our server came over with water and menus quite quickly and was so friendly and nice. I got the holiday (regular) single cheeseburger with onions, pickles, and lettuce. It was so good, it was a smash burger so perfectly thin and easy to eat. Also got the onion rings which were perfect. The slam burger and ol Barney burger were also given delicious reviews--11/10 by my company. The cheese fries were also very good. Lastly we got milkshakes. Oh my! These were decadent; perfectly thick but still manageable to drink or eat. The service remained consistently great throughout our meal. And for the best part they took out orders on 3 separate checks making it extremely easy and the total was $20 before tip! Throughly enjoyed and would recommend to anyone in LBI!! read more

We went here last night for dessert since we have heard great things about their cake slices. When you walk in there is a round bar to sit at and all of the cakes in the middle. The waiter that helped us was very friendly and gave recommendations since it was our first time there. We ordered the chocolate-chocolate and the vanilla-white slices. My chocolate slice was a little dry and the icing was crumbly, and unfortunately was not as good as I expected. The vanilla-white slice was a little dry as well and had a marshmallow frosting. We are thinking they may have been not as good since it's not the height of the season yet. We were glad we tried this LBI staple though and may try it again later this summer! read more

I want to like the HSB more, as my family has been coming here for generations, but their cake game is not on point. Dry cake, cold frosting...yuck. They are known for their cakes, but whoever is currently in charge is not nailing the landing. Please improve! We want to be lured back by the baked goods. read more

Great spot in the middle of a residential area of LBI. They had tons of outdoor seating but we sat inside because it was nostalgic to look at the desserts and all the framed pictures on the walls. This spot is very straight forward, Burgers, grilled cheese, milkshakes, ice cream and a ton of homemade desserts. I got the slam burger and was honestly a little hesitant about the the thousand island on the burger but it was delicious. It's a thin patty and just super simple ingredients but it definitely hits the spot. The buns are also super soft and fresh. Dessert seems like a must here. I went with the yellow cake and chocolate frosting with a small scoop of ice cream. It is a huge portion so sharing is obviously a great idea. Everything was great, I'd love to try their pies next time. There was a ton of teenagers working behind the counter. The service was absolutely fantastic everyone was very helpful always checked in on us and made sure we had everything we needed. Come here for some greasy delicious eats - oh and get the onion rings! They're great. read more

Stopped for breakfast on our last morning down the shore and LOVED. Never had breakfast here and it was so so good, for a great price, and the service was 10/10. Thank you Holiday Snack Bar for being a staple for us every single summer; now we will be back for breakfast too! ;) read more

Yelp is wrong, they are open 6/15. There is a reason this is so highly rated. Solid food, great service by nice kids, cool retro ambiance. Everything is hot and cooked to order. Not a fan of shoestring fries but they were good. Rather the classic cut or steak fries but that is a personal preference. Cake was out of this world. read more

Very cute place to get lunch! My boyfriend and I stopped for lunch because of the unique charm from outside, and we assumed it would have a very diverse menu. We were hooked as soon as we stepped inside! A beautiful round bar in an old original building with a simple, but big menu. Every staff member was kind and courteous. My company and I split a cheeseburger, cheesefries and an order of onion rings (which were out of this world!) The bill was pretty affordable, and we wished we could have tried one of their cakes! Definitely coming back sometime soon! read more

Great spot for home cooked breakfast or lunch. Everything is delicious. Desserts are incredible. Friendly service

The food was simply put, amazing. I had the old Barney burger and a slice of lemon not Meringue made with cream cheese frosting. Out of this world. The service was very friendly, attentive and the owner spent time with customers. The ambiance was very interesting and family friendly. I will be back for more. Check it out for yourself. https://www.holidaysnackbar.com/ read more

Came here this past Friday. Had the 'Ol Barney Burger.' Better known as a bacon cheeseburger with the trimmings and a pickle chip. Cooked perfectly along with fries and onion rings, both a winner. For dessert it was a huge slice of the Lady Lord Baltimore cake, three layers, two white and one chocolate (or was it the other way?). Very fresh and verrrry good. Took a slice of Banana Cream Pie, that was a disappointment, but, the key lime pie was killer! The server behind the counter was thorough and helpful. If you're in Beach Haven, a place to leave room for dessert. read more

Best key lime pie ever!! The other pies were pretty good and their signature cake was okay. The show is the key lime though. read more

I fucking LOVE Holiday Snack Bar. Their burgers are among the very best I've had. Simple, normally sized and cooked to perfection, they're perfect. Perfect brings me to their apple crisp which I recommend warm with a scoop of their vanilla ice cream. Their pies and cakes are incredible. Go there, love it and buy the shirt. I did. read more

Wow,what a disapointment. The place us a cool little place. I had the chicken sandwich. Very greasy and the bun was way to small. The chicken was obviously frozen. My wife had a burger and that was worse. In fairness the desserts looked great but we were not willing to stay to try them and the service was fast. read more

Sweet little spot on LBI. Burgers and onion rings were yummy and the staff was very friendly. Wasn't too keen on the lady lord Baltimore cake but the blueberry pie was ok. Also it was pretty expensive for the type of food you are getting. Spent $100 on burgers, fries and onion rings for a family of 4 with no drinks! read more

Great food Great service Outside seating Definitely the place for a quick bite Excellent pies and cakes read more

This restaurant always has a staff member ready to serve you! When I am there the workers seem very hardworking and friendly folks! One person in particular, Taylor Davidson, was extremely friendly and made the best milkshake that has ever touched my tastebuds! I go to HSB about once every two weeks and the service there has been nothing but exemplary. I will be back in another two weeks! read more

For one prices a bit high. A chicken sandwich sm onion rings hot dog fries and 2 coffee's Was $48. Wow. Then i was charged $3 for bacon that was on the menu for &1. And at rhe end a 3 percent handling fee. Wtf is a handling fee? Wont return read more

Expensive for an outside shack with picnic table dining. For example 7.00 French fries? Food was well presented but salad was bland and again overpriced. They have to turn a profit in three short months so I get it. One and done! read more

Love the old timey feel at this fine establishment! Seated without an issue at 8pm even though they close at 9. Our waitress was very friendly and made some recommendations. Had a chance to try the slam burger, crab cake sandwich, old bay cheese fries and root beer float. Everything was amazing. Burger was seasoned perfectly for my taste and filling enough. Old bay cheese fries were great. I enjoyed them but was a bit heavy on the old bay seasoning so if you're not a fan of the old bay, go regular. Def will be back to try their chicken sandwiches. read more

This is exactly what it says!!! Snack bar! No thrills it's comfort food. Hamburger's, variety of grilled cheese, chicken sandwich, root beer floats, Crab cake, cake and pie... All American ! It's actually really cute and the back yard seating is very pretty with it's landscaping. It's very fast for takeout. I recommend the Beach Bum chicken sandwich, even if I make my husband finish it's very filling read more

Great place. The new outside seating is pretty cool but don't miss out on seeing inside, such a unique space. Their chocolate milk needs help. Yes, I'm giving it 4 stars because of that. When a 4 year old says I wanted chocolate milk, not plain milk, you know it's made with barely any syrup. read more

Walked out after 10+ minute wait. The Snack Bar used to be my favorite place on the island, but it has really gone downhill lately. Sad situation for a former icon on LBI. read more

it has good burger fries. The dune fries are really good but the regular fries are made. All right came fast.

The Baja double and onion rings were great. The staff was also very nice. Not a huge menu but plenty of options even for the picky eaters. read more

This place was absolutely awful are waiter was slow and my burger was undercooked. We waited for are food for over an hour.

I am having coming here since I was a kid. The new owners have made it look so awesome but kept the same ambiance inside. The food is good and comforting. Nothing fancy but delicious. The deserts are outstanding. I hope it continues for my grandchildren read more

Been eating there since about 1952 as my grandmother used to take me there HSB is like my house on LBI as my grandsons are 5th generation to eat there The Bowker's are the best in keeping HSB authentic read more

Ate here twice this past week, had chicken planks and onion rings for one lunch and a grilled cheese with ham for second lunch. Both meals were a great price and have to say the chicken planks were excellent, moist and tender, 6 big pieces. Service was fast. We ate inside one time and at one of the outside tables the second time. Very clean. We'll be back later in the season. read more

Can't miss LBI staple... must love old world burgers and shakes... family fun atmosphere.

Love the Holiday Snack Bar. Old school burger joint vibe, recently changed ownership but still amazing as always. BYOB, indoor seating and outdoor seating available. My go-to is the Jetty Chicken sandwich, Great Bay fries and vanilla coke. read more

This busy place was almost across the street from where we were staying. Upon checking it out I found it was a unique hamburger greasy spoon joint. We did decided to order some cake to go. Was absolutely delicious! read more

I used to love the snack bar. Came here every summer. I came in tonight for a piece of cake w my daughter- yellow cake w chocolate frosting. The cake was dry and the icing flakes and fell off when you touched it w a fork. WTF? Icing should melt into your fork as you cut the cake, not flake off like dandruff. The cake was $7.50 which I wouldn't mind paying if it were fresh and delicious. Then I pay with $20 cash and receive $12 in change. Again, WTF?!?! You don't have correct change and you short change the customer? And you want me to sign a petition to keep you open? I think not. read more

I had the double cheeseburger and fries. The burger was very good. The fries were a bit overcooked but still tasty. The service was very good. read more

Ordered for pick up. Arrived 20 mins later when they said it would be ready. Waited another half hour. Got home and they left out one of two burgers. When i went back and shared with the owner that it had been an hour and 15 minutes to get the last burger now headed home to eat cold food she told me 'it happens' I'm eating at Barrys where food and mgt is better. 'It happens ' that new mgt takes on more than they can handle and a place goes downhill. read more
