“There are stores but some people just use the downstairs apart of the building to get their laps in it is quite large. There is also a large section that has A place for children to play. My grandchildren bring down ball and play kickball together My one grandson loves doing cartwheels. He has plenty of room here! Certain times of the year they have a market on I believe it's Wednesdays where vendors bring their goods.”

“We had a wonderful private party at Bar Bella catered by Bell Market. Jillian and her staff were great to work with and were able to tailor the menu to our needs. The food was delicious! Would highly recommend them for your catering needs.”

“Keeping things fresh, 618 continues to add new specials and menu items. Consistantly the best with food quality, service and energetic ambiance. Enjoyed innovative cocktails and wine along with the meatball appetizer and caesar salad before entrees of salmon and roasted chicken. All excellent. Shared banana and pistachio gelato to top off another great experience.”

“Wonderful set up for a charity event. Part of the room was used for the auction items which lined up along the wall easily. They did a buffet with carving stations, which lined up along the other wall. Dance floor and sound were great! Of course it was Brian Kirk so you can’t go wrong! Very good service.”

“Whats not to love about Addison Park? This place not only looks epic, but is an absolute treat to work at and hold your event or wedding at!As a wedding photographer it is super important to work at a venue that not only supports the vendors that work there, but also provides a beautiful landscape and great photographic opportunities for the couples so we don't have to go off site for photos. Addison park does not disappoint at all! (see attached photos)If you are on the edge with using them for your wedding, don't be! You won't regret it!”

“Sweet Sixteen!! The ballroom is fully renovated and beautiful. Food was delicious and better than expected being its a hotel ballroom. Allison was very accommodating and flexible of our needs. Price was on point with plenty of food for all.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better venue. From the beginning to the big day, the crystal ballroom really just handled everything and made the day amazing. Megan was great during the planning process, she answered every single question pretty much instantly and helped me so much. Rebecca was great when it came to our hotel block and always kept us updated. The hotel was so accommodating to us and our guests. No one had a single complaint! On the day of, Amber handled every single thing. From setting up our decor, to guiding our vendors, to even making sure I always had a drink in my hand. She worked so hard, and it was very impressive. She thought of things that I didn’t even think of myself! I felt so at ease the whole time, and like I was in really good hands. This team really cares about their brides and grooms. They go above and beyond. They were more than I could have ever imagine and helped make my day go better than I could have ever asked for. Get married here!! You won’t regret it. My guests also said the food was amazing, and the space was stunning! Also the bridal suite is awesome- huge space perfect for getting ready. I could go on and on about how many little things they thought of and how there are so many great things about this venue but sadly I am running out of characters!”

“Definitely a vibe. I hade a great time. The food was amazing. I will be back for the calamari very fresh!!. Also Rosalyn was great. Very professional and easy going.”

“It's hard to find coaches in gymnastics that won't abuse your kids mentally and physically. Premiere breaks that trend. The coaches are friendly and patient with your kids. The cost for team gymnastics is "reasonable".”

“I don’t even know where to begin. My husband and I got married at jumping brook on Saturday 3/23/24, and I have no words other than perfection. Our wedding was absolutely perfect. And it poured rain all day long and it still was the perfect day. Diamond and Lady were absolutely perfect. Our drinks were never empty whatever we needed they took care of. Everything was on time and on schedule. I would have my reception there over and over again. We got so many compliments on the food and cocktail hour. It was all flawless! I can’t thank Jumping Brook enough for giving Kenny and I the most perfect day! If you are considering booking here for your wedding, stop considering and book them now, you won’t regret it !”

“Great sangria! We both did the Rodizio which was excellent. Great dessert options, my husband had the cannoli cake and loved it. Our waiter Omar was very attentive and did a great job! Highly recommend!”

“Came across Buona Sera during a day trip to Red Bank and so glad we had lunch here! The setup & decor of the restaurant had its own unique charm that preserved history while balancing modern hospitality. Staff were attentive and made good recommendations—one of which was the lobster ravioli—the best I’ve had! These were jumbo and filled with real lobster, in an addictive creamy sauce topped with shrimp and scallops—highly recommend!! Their appetizer special of the Buffalo mozzarella was also a hit too. The chicken Rossini was very flavorful and had these huge pieces of chicken stacked on top. Be warned that the portions are huge!”

“Eagle Oaks came highly recommended to us while we were searching for a venue to host our big day. We could not have asked for anything more. From the service, to the food our expectations were far exceeded.We met Amanda in the very beginning stages of choosing Eagle Oaks. She was there through it all to help answer any and all questions we had, and make sure we were truly settled on all ends from planning to decision making, everything. She was extremely attentive and constantly checking in to ensure there was as little stress as possible. At our final details meeting, she sat and ran through the entire night with me so we knew our wedding would be exactly what we wanted.We met Melissa at our tasting last fall. She was amazing from the start. Her attitude was so positive, kind, and warm. My husband and I knew we would be in good hands immediately. She checked on us throughout our tasting, making sure we understood how everything would work on the big day, as well as ensuring we were happy with everything.Fast forward to the wedding, Melissa was nothing short of amazing once again. From the very moment my bridal party and I arrived, she came in to check in on us throughout the afternoon and evening with a beaming smile every time, again ensuring everyone was happy and enjoying themselves.My parents and I were introduced to George at our final details meeting. He too had a fantastic attitude to the point that even after only speaking with him for a few moments, I knew we would not have anything to worry or stress about.The night of our rehearsal, George made us feel very comfortable that everything would go off without a hitch Friday evening (which it did). George spent ample time explaining to the bridal party, our families, and officiant, exactly how everything would work for the ceremony. Checking in to see if anyone had any questions or concerns, and made suggestions on how to improve aspects such as the bridal party entrance and exit so that it would look as seamless as possible. He took extra time to explain how everything else for the day would work for my husband, Chris, and I.When we returned Friday afternoon, George promptly greeted myself, the bridal party, and my parents. He and Melissa walked us to the bridal suite and made sure we had absolutely everything we needed.After the ceremony, George led Chris and I back to the bridal suite, making sure we had a chance to eat and have some alone time as newlyweds before the party started. All night, he was by our side making sure everything went smoothly and stayed on schedule.Donna was also incredible. She too checked in on me in the bridal suite several times throughout the night. We had some great conversation! Just like Melissa and George, she too had a wonderful personality.One thing I can say for certain is that Eagle Oaks has an amazing, attentive, caring and truly kind staff. Another is that the food is just absolutely beyond words, and the service is excellent. I will be recommending the venue any and every chance I get.We could not have imagined or asked for a more beautiful special day.”

“9.17.20 Bday USAFLooking forward to doing what I can to help. USAF ?? I was warmly welcomed and couldn't ask for more of what appears to be real interest and leadership to help one another. THANK YOU for all,.ALL have done! ??”

“We booked the Royal Banquet Hall for our sons’ Birthday party. It was the perfect choice. The hall was spacious, clean, and even had the perfect space to store and serve food and drinks. The bathrooms are nicely tucked away and don’t take away from the space of the hall at all. Ashleigh was a pleasure to work with and made everything easy from booking to the end of the party. We’re looking forward to celebrate here again in the future.”

“We had a nice fish dinner . Tbe seafood buffet was very excellent. A good variety of seafood dishes . The service is very professional and helpful. We will definitely return and tell our friends and family. The Alfano's”

“Our friend suggested we try this diner while in Red Bank for the weekend. Joe, our waiter was great and so was the corned beef hash eggs Benedict! I would recommend trying one of their flavored pancakes too. We tried the red velvet and it was so good.”

“Had an excellent time for a wedding family event I attended, the staff was very attentive, friendly. The rooms were spacious, clean, and staying the night for the celebration, that much more special.”

“Went there for repast after a viewing at Clayton & McGirr Funeral Home up Adelphia Road. About 30 people attended. Buffet ìncluded mixed salad with dressing on the side, pasta salad, hot crisp rolls and butter, seasoned mixed hot vegetables, roasted potatoes, penne with vodka sauce, chicken francaise, sliced roast pork, dessert, and coffee. Other banquet selections are offered on their website.Used plates were cleared promptly and pitchers of water at the tables were refilled as needed. The meal was held in a private room. There is also the restaurant which has musical entertainment and a banquet hall. Plenty of parking.”

“While Bev & Wally's Arcade is not necessarily the largest arcade you will find along the shore, or Central New Jersey for that matter, it is really a great, family friendly venue that offers a good amount of entertainment for adults and children alike.The arcade is right off the main thoroughfare that runs right along the shore which may make parking a bit tricky during beach season, however during off season (when we went), you can arguably park right in front of the arcade without much issue.The arcade contains mostly redemption games - games that reward tickets usually based on the skills of the player, which in turn can be redeemed for prizes. There are a handful of claw machines and several string cutting games that offer generous prizes (PS5s and like-value). There are also a few pay-to-win games that will generate a prize every time. There is a vast selection of redeemable prizes which is of decent quality making your gaming experience worthwhile.If you're wondering, I've been told that the ownership of The Game Room and Bev & Wally's have been consolidated, however the two are not physically connected, and at present time (last quarter 2023, first quarter 2024) the Game Room is closed for renovations, I believe.The staff that works at Bev & Wally's Arcade are incredibly friendly and kind. The one's we've interacted with are truly about the experience of the children. Bev & Wally's Arcade also host parties for various occasions, and sometimes hosting fundraising events in which they offer some promotions.Overall, a nice arcade to go on a rainy day during off season, and a staple of the Keansburg area.”

“Our Christmas Eve at Bowlero was a total win! The festive atmosphere set the mood, and the friendly staff made us feel right at home. The food was a pleasant surprise—delicious and diverse. Bowling was a blast with well-maintained lanes and top-notch equipment. The staff's impeccable service made the evening even more special. Bowlero exceeded expectations, providing a perfect blend of holiday cheer, tasty treats, and family fun. We'll be back for more soon!”

“My 5 y.o had an awesome swimming experience here she is having the best time and has a great approach with children and staff, . My daughter learned the basics of swimming after just a few lessons (swim underwater and stroke as well as float on her back). I recommend five star swim school.”

“Excellent place to go dancing, spacious, comfortable, with parking service, reasonable prices and plenty of room to dance. The organizers bring the best groups in their genres.”

“We just had my daughter's 7th birthday here and the theme was a glow paint party. She had the best time with her friends. Kathleen was wonderful to work with, very responsive and accommodating. The girls got to paint squishmallows with glow paint, played a game of musical chairs, used the hula hoops, and also had a fun dance party bubble machine and balloons! The space is so so beautiful and unique with all the gorgeous flowers. Thank you again for making her day!!!”

“All About Fun knocked our daughter’s 4th Birthday party out of the park today! They were attentive and helpful, and my daughter loved it there! It had so many fun places to play and all of the games, bubbles, etc were amazing!!! Give them a try ♥️ Thank you to the wonderful hostesses ♥️”

“Although my wife and I enjoyed Neapoli on a regular basis. we visited three well know local restaurants for Jersey Shore Restaurant Week and Neapoli stood out at as the best. Neapoli never disappoints.”

“Nice upscale hotel. Might have just been the week I was there but the restaurant was REALLY slow, and while waiting for service at the front desk there were several people complaining about everything from shower temp to doors not closing to noise. Hopefully it was just a phase.”

“I travel a lot for work and often find myself at Holiday Inns. I have a select few locations that i frequent but this was a family trip. We selected this location due to its proximity to the areas we were there to visit and because they had a pool for my boys to swim. Unfortunately, the pool was down for maintenance. The pool finally was fixed as we were checking out for a long trip home.I brought this to the attention of the staff, being there specifically for the pool and they did everything they could to make it right. Outside of magically making the pool available they made it right by me and my family.To Tyler, Tristen, and the rest of the staff, THANK YOU for your customer service! It's hard to find in this day and age.Overall, a great stay and we will be back to this location.One other item, the breakfast was by far the best!!Food & drinks: Breakfast is awesome!Noteworthy details: Great customer service!!”
