I have been going to the poorhouse for 40 years and everything is delicious. There chicken quesadillas, crabcakes, including their salad with baby shrimp and egg.***** 5 stars read more

Service, food and atmosphere are the best. Definitely our go to place when in the area. I highly recommend trying them out!

The food was great the service was good. I would like the staff to be. More knowledgeable about the beers they have on tap. Loved the ambiance of everything it works really well. Will definitely be back soon read more

I haven't been to the Pour House in 25+ years and it's still delicious. Beer on tap, the French onion soup and nachos are the best combination. Let's talk French onion soup- the perfect cheese with frizzled onions on top equals delicious. The nachos have chili, lots of cheese, jalapeños and all of the toppings you can imagine. I can't wait to go back and try some other items. Our service was great and very attentive. read more

No wait which was nice. Say in a booth by the bar. They had a specials menu which we ordered the Captain Bob's seafood sampler with a side salad. It took a very long time for it to come out. When it did, it looked promising. Unfortunately, it was all very average and bland. Soggy corn on the cob and the a rice pilaf that had zero flavor. The shrimp, fish, and crab meat was not seasoned. The highlight of the meal was the side salad which was fresh and cold. I would never order it again. Will mention that the bathroom and table was clean. read more

Always a great meal here. The menu is huge with a lot of options too! Grab a bowl of popcorn on your way to the table (be prepared to wait a little bit...it's worth it!). Had pretzel and calamari for appetizers and they were on point. I ordered off special menu, chicken vodka penne, and it was excellent! Wedge salad was massive for my daughter. Kids hamburger was definitely freshly made! Cheese steak was solid with nice thicker pieces. There is something for anyone and you won't be "Pour" afterwards! read more

Spotless dining area, genuinely friendly service, and a kitchen that moves. They were upfront about a short wait on one item and immediately offered a complimentary drink classy move. Love seeing the staff hustle and clean as they go. Comfortable sports-bar vibe done right. Would happily come back. read more

Solid 4 stars. I've been jonesing for a French Dip, so decided to try The Pour House. After detouring through Red Bank (power outage as some idiots released mylar balloons next to a power substation!) we arrived. Giant parking lot, nice outdoor dining area too. Drinks (Bloody Mary-good AND inexpensive) and a Titos Mule arrived quickly. My French onion soup was tasty, her salad fine but nothing extraordinary. My French Dip was terrific, her crabcakes a flavorful and generous portion. The fries were between excellent and very, very good. Our waitress was easy to deal with, friendly blonde gal whose name I forget. read more

Waitress had an attitude, and the food was gross! Only giving 2 stars because the alcohol was cold! Also, found it weird that the food was being cooked literally in the middle of the bar... feels like a health code violation! read more

The server (Allie) was super helpful I helping me choose a meal I'd enjoy. It's a cozy atmosphere with casual vibe. The food was definitely something to report in a positive way. I as a vegetarian had their house made veggie burger (no bun-wasn't missed either!) made with sweet potato and black bean, covered in Jack cheddar I think and topped with avocado and a spicy mayo. It was delicious! Could be my new favorite pub grub! I'll definitely be back. read more

Basic place. Crowded. Menu wasn't for me. My turkey burger was undercooked. Not a place I need to ever return to.

I have been going to The Pour House restaurant for many, many years. I've always enjoyed the food and service. Tonight the food was great as always but sadly the service that I thought at first was good turned out to be terrible. I was sitting with my friends I hadn't seen in quite a while and we were having such a nice time talking as we had finished our dinner 8until our waitress came and told us that we needed to leave because the table was needed. She said, "the line is out the door." I was shocked but my friends and I decided to leave. As we were leaving we noticed no "line out the door." This made me speak to the hostesses about the issue and then call the manager. All of them said the waitress was wrong and apologized. This have NEVER happened in all the years (over 30) that I have been going. Was it because we were not of a "lighter hue" in skin color? Because she wanted more tables and tips? Is this a regular practice? Why is she allowed to speak to customers this way? Is she the owner? And even if she is, is that how you keep business? I know this review will do NOTHING to the bottom line of this business and things will keep on going as usual and I'll get over this. I have to. One rude person won't spoil my life or how I treat people. In fact, I hope she enjoys her vacation to Ireland that she told us about. But shame on you Pour House for letting this continue. read more

The Pour House in Tinton Falls, NJ just completed their renovations. Added outside dining and another room inside. The food tonight was delicious. The French Onion soup was flavorful, cheesy and hot. There were 3 shrimp tacos packed with toppings with a side of fries all very fresh. Husbands burger was medium rare (pink) on the inside with fries and coleslaw. Came out just like he wanted it. Our friends platter of a broiled chicken cutlet, broccoli and rice was more than enough to eat and the chicken was moist. Service was spot on. Waitress attended to all necessary needs and was attentive to our needs. Highly recommend this restaurant, don't think you'd be sorry read more

Cozy atmosphere. I especially like that you can have a conversation with others at your table without having to shout. Best french fries ever. Anything I have ever had there has been great and generous portions. I've eaten at the bar and at tables, service is always 5 star. read more

Always been a favorite place of mine! Great menu. Love to eat at the bar. But it's the first "Sports Bar" that I've ever seen that isn't open for the Superbowl! read more

We went for their Octoberfest and were really impressed! The service was great, the food was quite good. My wife was a little disappointed that her salad had so much white lettuce. The sauerbraten was tasty and portions were large. The wait staff happily provided extra gravy. My daughter loved the Wiener schnitzel and my grand liked the sausage sampler. They take no reservations, so you may wait a while to be seated. Prices are not terrible. read more

I ordered the special for the day: New York Strip Steak. It came with soup ( I chose white bean), salad (I chose shrimp & egg), and a side (I chose mashed potatoes). The soup wasn't what I expected; It tasted more like a Pasta Fagioli sans pasta. The salad was perfect- crisp and cool. The steak was perfectly cooked per my request (medium rare). The mashed potatoes came with butter and I also had au jus. They were freshly whipped and absolutely delicious. I also had a sangria and it was flavorful and was the right amount of sweetness. The hostess and waitress were prompt, polite and friendly. My one complaint is that the restaurant is currently being renovated. The booth seats sink very low and when someone is sitting in the next booth, it feels like they are pressing their back into your booth. I'm hoping that when the renovations are complete that the booth quality will improve. read more

The Pour House - New York Strip Steak & Garlic Mashed Potatoes - Pubs Near Me - Tinton Falls, New Jersey

Pros - huge menu, reasonably priced (for the area), new outdoor patio, attentive staff. Cons - flat soda (as of December 2023), long waits, and the bar closes too early (10pm) With some minor adjustments, this could be a five star experience. I'll continue to come back because the food is good and I prefer to support a local spot vs a big chain. read more

It's been 2 years since my last review. The renovation is complete and it's still great. It's Oktoberfest, if you haven't been here for that you're missing out. We had baby pirogies honey mustard and Swiss cheese pork chop, with amazing potato pancakes, the October beer selections are great as well. They do not take reservations so prepare for a wait but if you can find a seat at the bar just eat there. Still my favorite Bar Restaurant for 40 years, that says a lot. I'm a customer for life. read more

My family and I have been customers of the Pour House for years because it's right around the corner from our house. Unfortunately, we have been having "small" poor experiences for the past year culminating in major poor experiences in our last two visits at the Pour House. Long and grossly inaccurate wait times, smaller and smaller food portions, poor food quality/running out of menu items, and most recently a miserable attitude of front end staff/mgt seem become the norm lately, which is sad because The Pour House was one of our favorite spots (my son calls it the "Popcorn Restaurant "). Given these changes, I think we will be patronizing MJ's more frequently even though it's a bit farther from home (at least until the Pour House can work out its problems).. read more

Fresh tasty food, generous portions, good variety of food options, excellent atmosphere, friendly staff

We had a very good first experience. Busy family place but plenty of indoor and outdoor seating with a bar vibe. Service was efficient and polite. Good selection of beers and beverages. Nice large menu. Plenty for anyone to find something they will enjoy. The onion soup was delicious. We also tried a simple salad and chicken sandwich. Both were equally good and nice size portions. Not in this area a lot but I would absolutely come back here. read more

A go to place after work for a beer, an appetizer. Or entree, and the atmosphere. This time of year there is outside dining. The waitstaff are attentive, they get busy and we often eat at the bar. Food is good, prepared well. read more

I stopped by The Pour House recently and got The Thin Vinny which was ridiculously and surprisingly good! It was a delicious bunless homemade veggie burger topped with melted cheddar jack cheese, sliced avocado and chipotle mayo + a shrimp and egg side salad. This plate was filling, tasty and creative!! I also had a frozen margarita which came from a machine and was delightful. I sat at the bar and there was a very healthy Friday lunch crowd. The bartenders were attentive. Overall, I was impressed with my experience here. read more

We wanted to meet in the middle between our two homes, so my friend chose this location and it was a lovely spot to sit and catch up w/ friends while enjoying a lovely lunch! My salad was beautifully presented with apples & pears , greens, candied walnuts and very tasty juicy chicken breast! My friend favors their burgers! We both enjoyed our lunch and the waitress refilled our glasses as we reminisced. They are expanding their lovely outdoor space ( under a pergola) so once that aspect is completed it's also a great spot to enjoy a bite In "plein aire"! Check it out! You won't be disappointed! read more

My wife and I have been married 41 years. We lived closer to the pour house when we first got married and ate there quite frequently. We haven't been there in over 30 years and the food was excellent. Service was excellent. Prices are fair. Good service. read more

We went here the other day and I have to say, I am very impressed with the food and food quality. The menu is a pretty decent size with really reasonable prices. The place isn't too big and we waited. But not for too long. There was also indoor seating for the wait area. I had the sautéed cajun chicken alfredo and it was very good. There was a lot of flavor and chicken in this dish. It also came with a soup and side of garlic bread. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the dish was pretty big. The leftovers still tasted great the next day. The service here is great and the servers were very respectful and quick. There is great free bread here to start and they will bring more if you ask. Overall an excellent experience and a worthwhile visit. I highly recommend coming here to eat some delicious food! read more

I have frequented this restaurant many times over the years. I ordered the steak and cheese sandwich and it was totally inedible. It was so dry that you couldn't even cut it and the cheese was laying on top unmelted. Shoe leather would have tasted better. I did tell them. I might have felt better if they offered a small dessert or something. I am definitely crossing this off my list. read more

I was here about 8 years ago. The rooms are about what I remembered them to be. It seems the only major difference is the large tent for outdoor dining. There's not much different going on here. The service, the ambiance, the food and the prices are ok. It's a middle of the road venue, nothing really bad and nothing really good. I would go back again to get a little bit more insight, but as of now it might be another few years before returning. There's no need to explain the types of food. It's an American restaurant that has a very large menu, possibly too large. read more

I had a surprisingly good lunch experience in a very understated external structure. There is plenty of parking out back. The interior is rustic and friendly. Waitstaff is extremely helpful.

ordered an entree that included soup and salad. i was served the entree without either. i brought this to the attention of the server / manager and was told that "they could wrap it up". "wrap up"soup and salad!? excuse me but you made a mistake, an effort to make it right would have been the answer. sorry to say that since their renovation the service and especially the food has suffered. after being a customer for twenty plus years no mas! read more

Very disappointed with my last visit, usually love this place it's a go to for me. My friends and I don't get many chances to see each other and we always go to the pour house when we get together. We went to order apps and we always get a pitcher is sangria when we visit, it's one of our favorite things. The new young male waiter we had was checking our id's when suddenly he said he was not serving us because he apparently heard us talking about how they were fake. When in reality our conversation was about how my friends ids were still vertical and I had the horizontal. I told them I ordered mine on the dmv website rather than waiting in line. Mind you we are 22. I understood the fact that we look young and he didn't know how to check ids so we asked him to have someone else check it. We also tried to explain what we were actually talking about rather than the 10 secs he listened to our conversation and thought he was smart. Tried arguing with us like we were lying instead of just simply bringing our ids to the manager. Did not like the fact that he was talking to down saying the manager is going to take them away if they are fake. Yet again, we kept insisting for the manager to check them because they are not fake... if I had a fake id number one I wouldn't be an idiot enough to talk about that in front of you. And number 2 if they were fake I wouldn't have been insisting for a manager to check it. He then brought them to a manager to check it. (which takes 10 mins btw) the manager comes back, gives us our ids, says nothing, walks away and then turns around and just rudely says "but we are not serving you" Very unprofessional way to handle it. Obviously regardless of me being the legal age to drink places can always refuse to serve you so I didn't argue back. But, I thought if they were fake they would be taken away? So obviously he knew they weren't, so not really understanding the attitude. Also, if you don't not have a staff that knows how to check ids, you should have an id scanner then. You literally have a bar in the middle of your establishment. You should have one anyway. this is one of my favorite places and I'm not sure if I will be back now. But I guess if I do I will have to bring my passport, birth certificate, and probably my social security card at this point. Mostly upset with the way this was handled. Especially by the manager. Side note we never got the appetizer before we left when he refused to serve us. My friend still wanted to be nice and offer to pay for it. The same manager was incredibly rude to her when she offered. Get a better manager. read more

Unfortunately one of the worst burgers we have had in a long time. Ordered our burgers medium and they came to the table medium well and charred. Ambiance is nice. Service was ok but we sat and waited 10 minutes to pay the bill. Definitely not a great choice if you are looking for a good burger. read more

The Pour House is one of my most favorite restaurants. We have been going to the Pour House for over 40 years. They have the most expansive and delicious menu between their regular menu and their daily specials. Everything is always delicious and with large portions. But my most favorite is their cheddar burger with their own cheddar sauce. It is the best burger I have ever had anywhere. They have recently renovated and expanded and they are always busy. Our quieter go to place has been discovered! read more
