A special thank you to Peter "Pan" for making our night so memorable. Not only were the cocktails delicious, but watching him craft those amazing bourbon creations was an experience in itself. We will definitely be taking an Uber next time so we can fully indulge in even more of those exceptional bourbon cocktails! Thank you for a wonderful evening. We can't wait to come back!

I only had the one I paid for. There's no need to lie, bad days happen. This is not a speakeasy, this is a restaurant cosplaying as a speakeasy. That may be a bit harsh, it's a speakeasy in training. Sure, it's got all of the speakeasy decor, blackout curtains over the windows and doors, and a big selection of pedestrian liquor but it's not quite there. We went in on an early evening on Wed and there were maybe 5 other patrons in there. Our waitress was nice and brought us water to the high top. She brought us two food menus, and a specials menu. I asked for a bourbon list and she brought it; no prices on the list. Annoying. On the specials menu there was a small section of manager recommended drinks and one was a Willet. The way it was written was confusing because it said it was both a 4 year and 14 year for $52, so I asked for clarification on the age statement. She took the menu to the barkeep, who confirmed it was a 14 year so I said yes I'll have that. A drink was brought to me, but I could tell from the taste that it was not what I ordered. I asked the waitress for the bottle, she asked the guy behind the bar for the bottle and he pulled down a willet pot still bottle (pot still is the entry level Willet and at best a 5 dollar pour, no where near what I asked for). I told her that I was given the wrong drink, then she approached the bar and between her, and the male and female bartenders they had a weird back and forth conversation. Then, finally they pulled down the bottle that I asked for, that was advertised, and gave me a pour of it. I asked to see the bottle and the waitress brought it over but held it instead of putting it on the table (it was a 13 year Willet, Paper Trail). As we were about to order we were told that they reset the menu the very day before, with the focus of putting more love and care into the food. Feeling good about that, we ordered the French quarter catfish and the bourbon braised short ribs. The corn that came with the short ribs tasted straight out of a store bought steamable pouch, and the "ribs" weren't ribs at all, just sliced meat. The only redeemable thing about the catfish dish was the aioli; the rice had no flavor, the corn was cold and hard, and the catfish was mostly breading. We both took a few bites and resigned. I have been to many speakeasies around the US, and there are common themes: a much better selection of liquor; 95% of the bourbon were low tier bottles you can find in any liquor store for around $50. Also, when customers ask for the bottle, it isn't because we plan to steal it or drink from it, its because we're genuinely interested in the information on the labels. The quickest way to get people to stop spending money is to make them feel as if they can't be trusted touching a bottle. Perhaps it was an off day for the staff and this wasn't a typical experience, but I won't go back.

The seafood blends into everything and is the star but do not discount the details and sauces of each item to make it truly unique. There's zings and pows and delightfulness in addition to the huge pieces of scallop and salmon cake. The sense of richness is brought to every plate you don't want to stop eating. Do not sleep on their cocktail offerings! Strong drinks with strong mixed flavors- I got the silly blue drink with the blinking light inside and it was hilariously fun but also VERY tasty, tangy, and wonderful to drink alongside the food. I don't know how they manage to keep a cozy sense of special romance along with fun camaraderie but it's something unique to take notice and highly recommend to enjoy!

But I don't want to have that loudly being sung in a fine dining restaurant from ten feet away. And in my personal opinion, not well.

It's rare for an entire meal to hit without a single weak note, but that's exactly what happened here. Only recommendation? Add more N/A options (less juice forward). Maybe a Phony Negroni or something. What stood out most was how the whole experience came together--great food, great service, and great atmosphere rarely align this seamlessly. Shorebreak isn't just a solid meal out; it's the kind of place you start planning your next visit to before you've even left. Highly, highly recommend.

The staff was friendly and service was quick Food: their menu has gluten allergens clearly labeled. we tried numerous appetizers including the crab soup special, fancy fries, deviled eggs, and brussel sprouts. The sprouts were our least favorite of them as they were way to light on the sauce. The other 3 were all very good and I think my wife died over the soup's flavor. The chorizo meatloaf had each component good tasting but when combined was great. The short rib entree was both beautiful and tasty!

Upon entering I noticed I wouldn't have needed a reservation and was very surprised. We were seated at a very cool three sided square booth which lined the restaurant very comfortable and happy adding to the experience. Had a bourbon cocktail to start, very good. The food we ordered were very good. The kids ordered the Kraft Mac n cheese which they enjoyed and I have to admit being from South Jersey near the Philly area the cheesesteak I ordered was indeed sliced ribeye on a delicious Liscio roll. Definitely a south Philly competitor. I remember mentioning to my buddy who graciously lent me his condo for the week to enjoy with the kids, who recommended dining here what a wonderful experience this was and he said when he took his brother, he was so surprised a bowling alley was capable of delivering such a wonderful dining experience.

Maybe- which is kinda insane- but in a good way. Both my friend and I thought that DDR included 2 or 3 rounds before but now it is only one game for $2 which is expensive. They seem to be the only ones who offer this in the area for now and they have a good selection for me otherwise. We played air hockey where one side's outside goal borders a bit flimsy like last year or so but it still works well otherwise. Small arcade but it seems not too populated even on a Saturday night or not this one. The location and size may have to do with why there are not too many people either. They get most of their money from the food experience probably. Maybe bowling and other things that I don't know that they have might do better. There was a live band on Thai Sat evening. Not my kind of music but this more elderly, classy crowd seemed to be enjoying in the festivities a lot. The bathrooms here are clean.

When we got there, several people were waiting for tables but we were able to walk on by since we had the res. When we sat down we learned it was restaurant week! At first we thought it would be too much food - but the menu sounded too good so our arms were twisted haha. I got the lobster toast - this was my fave thing I ate at the Blue Hen. My bf got the carpaccio (also delish). For our main course I got the branzino. It was topped w fennel and carrot and it tasted so good w the fish. My bf got the fried chicken and he enjoyed it. We both loved our desserts. I got the strawberry - yum!! And he got the blueberry bread pudding. I had several tastes of his and I wasn't sure which dessert I liked more. Def need to come back!! I can't remember which drinks we had but I do remember that we liked them. I had only been to the Blue Hen for happy hour previously but now I know I need to be back soon!

We popped into this restaurant for a Sunday evening meal and happened to arrive about an hour and a…read morehalf before a drag show was scheduled to start. We were seated in a split booth setup in the corner of the restaurant. It felt a little tight walking between the tables, and the seating itself wasn't particularly cushioned/super comfortable. We thought the decor with personalized dollar bills covering the walls was definitely creative, and the low lighting added to the overall dive-bar atmosphere. The bathrooms were gross. The trash was overflowing, and there was an unpleasant smell. Those could definitely use some more cleaning. I only used one of them the single stall rooms but I felt bad because it looked like some of the performers were using the bathrooms to get changed before the show. If the other bathrooms were similar, I wouldn't particularly enjoy having to get ready in there. There were lots of unique mixed drink options that matched theme of the bar. I ordered the "Blueberry Lemonade," which I enjoyed. Some people at our table ordered the "Mudslide" and felt it could have been more chocolate rather than tasting primarily like cookies and cream. The food was actually pretty good. I ordered the "Parrot Burger," while my partner got a Cheesteak. The presentation was nice when everything was brought to the table, and the plates and utensils appeared clean. The only minor note was that someone at our table noticed a gnat taking a swim in her drink at one point, although that could have come from anywhere. The standout item for us was definitely the chicken tenders we ordered as an appetizer. When we recapped the meal the next morning for the people who hadn't gone, those were the item we all agreed were the best! We also listed it as one of the best food items we ordered the whole trip. Everything came out in a timely manner, and the appetizer was served appropriately before our entrées. Service was generally helpful. Despite the restaurant being loud, the servers spoke loudly and clearly enough that we could understand them. However, after finishing the meal, we ended up waiting a while to flag down our server for boxes and to pay the bill. Overall, this is a fun dive-bar experience, especially if you're interested in a late- night spot or the local entertainment, but I wouldn't come here expecting a polished sit-down dining experience. The food was solid and the drinks were vibey.

They have a handful of entrees, which looked great, but my party ordered a bunch of small plates to share amongst ourselves, which I feel is the best way to enjoy the menu. We had the Toragashi Tuna, Soup Dumplings, Crab Rangoon, Wok-Fried Green Beans, and Spicy Cucumbers. Most of the menu items have heat and spice, so if you're intolerant to spicy foods be sure to mention it to your server. Speaking of whom, the staff is exceptional. The host was very accommodating and charming. Very professional yet friendly. The server was excellent -- very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu and cocktails. The chef brought out our food and checked on us personally to make sure we were enjoying the food. The entire staff was friendly and helpful, but didn't hover around as some tend to do. The ambiance of the restaurant is very chic and trendy. The lighting is low but not too dim, the decor is tasteful and modern. They have a bar near the entrance and 12 tables (and a table/booth combination). The restrooms are gender neutral and single occupancy. As you might imagine for a vacation spot, the small restaurant is quite busy. Reservations are recommended and can be made on their website.
