    Steeped in Stone Harbor tradition, Uncle Bill's is THAT girl for beach town breakfast. But I'll just say it: it was more than $110 before tip for 4 people to have coffee and breakfast at a diner. WHAT?! What? Huh? What? Wait, what? If the Jersey Shore is to represent the heart of Americana where families can go to have an enjoyable beach vacation, we've lost the goddamn plot here. Okay, rant over because this is in fact Stone Harbor and I guess I should know better. Other than the price of your nostalgic experience, everything is fabulous. Nice service, good food (bury me in a pile of these home fries), and the pancakes are what light and fluffy dreams are made of. We got there before 10am on a Sunday and were seated without issue, though this was at the end of the season so I would expect a wait otherwise. I would go back for the experience and the food! Enjoy your beach vacation and don't forget to bring cash.

    It's diner food in a tourist town. Food proportion was generous. Quality was OK. Perhaps my expectations was raised by the price. My "Golden Brown Waffle" was just a plain waffle with butter and sugar powder. It was kind of thin for, I think, $15 or $16. Plus it wasn't really golden brown. My wife ordered the Hawaiian Ham and pineapple with potato pancake. The potato pancakes has a lot of shredded potatos and flour but they were undercooked. Food were served quickly but maybe a little too quickly. Our waitress was friendly and nice. Prices in general are on the high side but it's expected in a tourist town.

    We were in the area for a wedding and found this cute pancake house. We only had to wait a few moments for a table, which I was surprised because we came in around 10 on a Sunday morning. Everyone is friendly and the food comes out quick. The coffee is not great, but it's caffeine so I'm happy. The pancakes are delicious. The bacon is super crispy. My husband got the pork roll and it was thick slices of deliciousness. The eggs were good, nothing crazy. I would probably stick to their pancakes/French toast if we have a chance to come back. Prices are a little wild. $3.75 for coffee. 3 pancakes, eggs and bacon is $16.75. I get that prices are going up everywhere, but that just seemed a little steep.

    The Tuesday morning special - blueberry pecan pancake. Delicious!!

    Been coming to this place for over 12 years now. I try a differing pancake each time. Service is fast. Depending on time of arrival, will have to wait to be seated. Arrival this past visit was 915am - our family if 4 was sat quickly. About 30min after our arrival there was a line out the door. My pancakes were the special for the day; blueberry pecan.

    The pancakes were warm and buttery, and the omelette was cheesy and cooked to perfection. The waitress was really nice and the place was clean and family friendly.

    Wow what a great place, nice staff, great eats. I had a scrambled egg and Taylor on a Kaiser and some home fries. Yum yum! Actually WAY too much food! I asked for a scrambled egg, I think I got like three eggs!! Prices are great and staff is super friendly! Making the Jersey shore proud!!

    A true classic. There's nothing like Uncle Bill's, and it never disappoints! The blueberry pancakes are my favorite.

    By far the best breakfast place in the area. Of course, the pancakes are great as well as the omelettes and everything on the menu

    Dearest Gentle reader,…read more a spectacular view was in order for a very special lunch desired by one of mine tiny members of the household. I was not warmly welcomed by a hostess beginning with the letter B. As she sat my table down, I had a simple request and was told by this young lady to ask someone else or to do it myself. Cold is an understatement. However, I will say this... very quickly after, a gentleman by the name of Martin was very swift and accommodating which made that cold treating quickly forgotten. Our waitress Shannon was a delight as well while giving us some splendid recommendations in which we did not regret. I thank these two lovely people for making the experience better afterwards. Yours truly, Lady Whistledown (critic)

    We were visiting friends who live in Stone Harbor last week and they suggested this restaurant…read more Since it was a Friday, and Labor Day weekend, I suggested we stop to make a reservation. Our friends have frequented this place before and said they don't take them, but at my insistence, since it was a holiday weekend, we stopped and my friends husband went in to inquire. He was told "no reservations needed, but please come back after 6:30 as there is currently a cocktail hour for a wedding going on". That was no problem as it was 5 and we wanted to freshen up. We arrived at 7.....and the hostess told us she couldn't seat us because we had no reservation. My friends' husband told the young lady the conversation he had with a lady inside the hotel and the hostess said that wasn't her problem. My friend spoke up and said the hotel website even states that reservations aren't needed to which the hostess stated it wasn't her website.....my friend lost it, telling the hostess that the website is the hotels and that the hotel is her employer making it her website. She then turned her tablet around to show my friend all the reservations that they had and told us to eat elsewhere. At this point my friend's husband went inside to speak with a manager and saw the lady he spoke to a few hours before who said she didn't remember telling him he didn't need a reservation. We were eventually greeted by a young man who apologized for the inconvenience, stated the website had been updated to accept reservations and he'd see what he could do for us. My friend immediately looked at the website, again, and the reservation button led to hotel accommodations. The young man offered to seat us inside and that's when I spoke up and said we were from CA and wanted to sit by the water. He didn't like that but he did seat us. The view at sunset was amazing, our waitress was wonderful, the food was mediocre and the entire experience with the hostess and management soured our evening.
