This area of Long Branch is where our reception is located! Located alongside the Long Branch boardwalk, this "village" has tons of restaurants, bars, stores, and even a beach. Some great places to check out in Pier Village include: Turning Point (breakfast & lunch), Sirena (upscale dining), Wine Loft (drinks), McLoone's (dining & bar), and the Avenue (dining & bar). Before our reception starts, definitely grab a drink at one of the many options in Pier Village-- everything is within walking distance of the Wave Resort!
This is the best beach spot in town (up for debate but this is where Tor grew up going to the beach every day). If interested in heading to the beach, great local spot. Tor's family sits on the north side of the beach-- to the left of the lifeguard stand! Maybe we will see you there the day after the wedding!
Best. Bagels. Ever. Zero contest. Cash only-- get there early on the weekends and be ready for a true jersey bagel experience. Egg everything is our personal favorite.
Another classic breakfast spot that has a special place in our hearts! FYI-- cash only again! Can't go wrong with this place. Tor's order: pancakes with bacon; Josiah's order: the Big D breakfast sandwich (with porkroll of course!)
If you are staying in the Asbury area, this is the best breakfast spot in town! Even approved by the late Anthony Bourdain. Tor's order: bacon, egg & cheese on a seedless roll; Josiah's order: pork roll, egg & cheese on a seeded roll. FYI this is cash only.
Best. Sandwiches. Ever. Get the #18 with extra honey mustard. Or the #7. Order these ahead and bring them to the beach... great combo!
Great gourmet pizzas in the heart of Asbury-- can't go wrong with a couple of these pies on the boardwalk!
Top notch Jersey Shore pizza option that is great for takeout!
If you are looking for a ~boujee/upscale~ dinner, this is one of Josiah & Tor's fav restaurants in Asbury. Definitely recommend the escargot appetizer... it is to die for!
Looking for a fun cocktail on the Asbury boardwalk? This is it!
Great spot in Asbury for some good adult beverages & food! Surrounded by a ton of other great bar/food options on Cookman Avenue.
