Italian pork sandwich
Tommy J.

Wow! Got a couple of pork sandwiches for lunch. Delicious and very reasonable. Lots of pork. The Carolina had just the right amount of heat and taste. Pork was moist and tender. Had the Italian too. Nicely done with sautéed spinach and garlic. Since Voltacos closed I've been looking for a new roast pork sandwich spot. I found it at Pappys! Looking forward to trying their ribs and other sandwiches.

Southern pork

We discovered Pappy's the last time we visited Ocean City. Since then, it has became a must stop for us whenever we are close to the area. The pizza itself is your typical Jersey pizza, but the combination of cheese, bbq sauce and the juicy succulent pork makes it almost an out of body experience. The ribs are fall off the bone tender with great char with a tangy bbq sauce. Don't be afraid to stop by when you're in the area!

Italian Pork Sandwich (or what's left of it) and loaded fries

Came in for a quick bite and this place is pretty solid. Ordered the Italian pork sandwich and the loaded fries and the food was delicious! The staff is friendly and nice.

I've been curious about this place for years so a group of us finally checked it out. Great food, good service, and clean place! We ordered a few BBQ platters, the fried Mac and cheese bites, fries, and a buffalo chicken pizza. They were all amazing. Will definitely be back.

Turkey hoagie with an AMAZING roll!!!
Pine F.

Stellar! On a whim, we pulled off the highway and stopped here- it was well worth it. It's a small hole in the wall type of place with a no frills, nothing fancy type of atmosphere and the food was FANTASTIC! My husband had the pulled pork- he is from the Carolina's and quite the BBQ expert- he said his sandwich was the stuff that BBQ dreams are made of. I would agree re the turkey hoagie I had- I have been searching for this exact kind of amazing hoagie for 32 years- the roll really makes it- the paper thin onions, lettuce and tomato just elevate it all to another level. Our four year old son had his "sauce pizza" custom made The crust was paper thin and super delish crispy and the red sauce reminded me of my summer in Florence- we were all thrilled- go here- you won't be disappointed!!

The food was horrible first of all they give you way too much food for it to be so nasty and the food they give you is supposed to be grilled ribs they boil them they sit them on the grill to put a sealer on them and that is it and you could taste that it was boiled and the barbecue sauce nothing but ketchup with sugar and the potato salad the potatoes were hard no flavor the bake beans taste and look like it came right out of a can. I never been more disappointed than I am in this place and I will never return I spent $25 for a bunch of nasty food

Why would they send a pizza with holes in it ???

Let me…read moretell you - the buzz was on point Let's start with the staff - very friendly Next our waitress Brittany gave some excellent recommendations both on drinks and food. She was attentive and friendly. In addition to their regular menu, they had a special valentine's centric menu. This made it difficult to choose because we had also been given recommendations from friends on what to order. We settled on French onion soup (delicious), Caesar salad and the filet special from the valentines menu which was accompanied by the creamiest butteriest smashed potatoes (note the menu said mashed but I consider any mashed that contains the skins of the potatoe a smashed potatoe) and asparagus with a reduction. The food was very good. I can't use the term exceptional until I have made more visits - which we will certainly do. I also treated myself to the chocolate strawberry martini. Delicious ! We also had the chocolate mousse topped with fresh whipped cream and strawberries for desert. It will go on my top 10 desserts I ever ate list for sure. Needless to say that kitchen is pushing out some fantastic food. The bar is putting out quality pours and cocktails. I would also be remiss if I didn't state that they also had a live guitarist singing and he was good - I didn't catch his name though. Can't give them a 5 star until we dine again ... Thanks local tavern for a great experience!

First of all an apology for taking so long to get with one of the best places to eat around . We…read moremoved down a couple years back oct 24 and finally made it TBD. A lovely greeting on entrance. My wife and I used to work at an iconic eatery in phila called Taylor's country store and both of us looked at each other and said we get the same vibes. The decorations were just what you'd hope for in an eclectic little restaurant. Located on the edge of the villas maybe 15 mins from wildwood and cape May if you're visiting down the beach or shore don't sleep on this place. Now for the food we were looking for lunch we have our go to spots but wanted to change it up and I'm so glad my wife chose TBD. Has a great menu with something for everyone. I got a hot roast beef because it's one of my favorites. Side of fries hand cut. First the sandwich was everything I had hoped for I go a couple Roast beef sand places but this has shot to the top. Gravy on the side is how it came and it was just what the sand was meant for ciabatta roll soaked it up perfectly, no prob I'm not a fan of the disintegrating gravy sand I like to control the gravy. Roast beef was thick but not out of control thick,didn't need sharks teeth to bite through it. And not any gristle which definitely mattersHorseradish on the side a little bite not your make your nose run hot but hot enough. Hand cut fries delicious crispy hot and a perfect pairing to dip in the gravy. The pickle was exactly how you want a deli pickle to be crunchy fresh and sharp flavored w real dill I will say it again perfect . My wife had the burger it was huge tasty I know because I had half the right amount of everything. She chose the fresh homemade chips they were marvelous too I know because I grudgingly gave up a few fries to have some chips. It was big enough she said she would be skipping dinner. Anyway it's the kind of place you leave saying I can't wait to go back and try the other choices because you know they will all be made with culinary care and taste great. Don't step nod or miss this place. Being on weight watchers I know I'm gonna regret finding it, but you shouldn't it's on rt 47 the sign w the two black dogs sorry no pics of the food but I was hungry and scarfed it down before thinking

The food took forever - almost 50 minutes from when the appetizer was finished and the 3 sandwiches arrived. The server came over twice to tell us "it's almost ready" The food was burnt - dry - overall not great. No one in our group enjoyed it.

We loved it here and definitely would come back. We searched comprehensively for a special dinner…read moreexperience for our last night in Cape May, and initially we were taken aback because we could not get a reservation before 7pm on a pre-season Tuesday in May. So we went early (no problem being seated around 5:30 or so, but it did seem full an hour later) and were we ever rewarded. Everything was simply perfect, including Vicki, our veteran and down to earth waiter. When we are unsure of things, she provided expert guidance with kindness and wisdom. The mussels appetizer are an experience not to be missed - save the bread for lapping up its saucy juice. My wife loved the pork chop - its huge and she took half home for lunch. I devoured the blackened fish of the day over bok choy. Both simply were outstanding. If/when again in Cape May again, we'd certainly come back. With a reservation!

I'm a sucker for a good thin crust, and this did not disappoint. Everything about the pizza was sublime. Even hours later when I heated up the remaining slices at the hotel, it continued to be a palate-pleaser. Second night, round two: I love a good turkey club but I would've willingly sold my right pinky for one this good. I nearly had to unhinge my jaw to bite into this beast. I again met my match and had to take half of it to-go. Did I have it later that night? No! I popped open that tray for a breakfast club the next morning and the flavour never missed a beat. Make this place a sure stop when you are in town!

Order a bloody Mary and you get a limp olive with no pimento. Don't get me wrong I've been here…read morebefore and everything's been fine but today it just got on my nerves. I went midday. 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
