Great time at the Bait Box! We sat outside under the Pavillion and had a great meal. I got the briskit nachos and my wife got the summer berry salad. Both were very good. I dont like berries and i actually liked hers..lolI had a mermaid drink from the bar and it was great. Very tropical. Live music was playing and made for a great atmosphere.Also know that this is a DOG FRIENDLY establishment. I wish i knew cuz i definitely would have brought him with us!When the mosquitoes came out, after dark they came around with citronella candles and offers of free bug spray if you wanted it.The wait staff was phenomenal and very very attentive.Overall a 5* experience! Highly recommended!Kid-friendliness: Outside dining area great for kids to run around.

Beautiful setting. Lovely restaurant, unfortunately the food left a bit to be desired. One of the brisket taco was filled with nothing but gristle and fat. The fries were sliced so thin, they were tasteless. Crab cake was totally unseasoned. However, we will be willing to give it a second chance.

I came for crab cakes but the shrimp tacos stole my heart. We arrived at sunset after a quiet drive through the swamp to the buzz of a band playing live music and orange hues lighting up the docks through our car windows. As soon as we open the car doors, we realized that the buzz was in fact human-eating flies likely evolved after decades of living too close to the nuclear plant. After battling said gnats while my toddler lost her shoes on the way in, we were beyond starving and carrying the battle scars of carnivorous flies. Thankfully, the friendly atmosphere and aromas satiated our nerves long enough to browse the tasteful menu. After tasting the menu, even my one year old thought everything was delectable! The tacos were definitely top-notch and win for culinary creativity, the crabby fries were actually quite amicable when eaten, and their succulent flavor was a gracious compliment to any entree. The pizza was satisfactory and the Alfredo and palatable although it lacked in the waves of flavor that the other dishes possessed. This is definitely a gem of south Jersey and well worth the drive..... possibly even worth risking life and limb through the gauntlet of gnats.Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly as long as they don't get consumed by bugs on the way in.

I was on my way to Cape May by boat. I stopped here. The service was impeccable. I did not eat but the food looked and smelled incredible. Awesome people work here. I’ll be back for lunch on my next boat trip from Westville to Cape May. Thanks guys. You’re awesome people.

We had a wonderful meal. Service was fantastic. The select desserts were homemade (from scratch) this is a true fact since I bake. I had the beef brisket sandwich which melted in my mouth. The fried green tomatoes were very good along with the crab and cheese old bay fries. This is definitely a well hidden gem. I have read some of the reviews about this establishment and the negative ones are truly hard to believe, there was nothingnegativeto comment. The water views just beautiful. We truly enjoyed our visit and will be returning. Worth my hour ride.

I have been trying to get out to the Bait Box for what seems like forever. We finally made it out and frankly, we were disappointed.The dining room was busy for a Sunday night so we initially didn't get upset when our appetizers took over 30 minutes to come out but then we waited another 30 minutes for our entrees and the dining room was pretty empty by then. The food was marginal. Nothing spectacular but the over priced drinks were pretty good. The subpar service is why we won't be back.

Very cool local nook to eat/drink near the bay!! You can pull your boat up dockside from the Cohansey River and grab a bite. We had a great date night and ate outside at the picnic tables by the outside tiki bar. Great selection of draft beers. Absolutely loved the stuffed pineapple poke bowl appetizer. Highly recommend!
