Cape May Restaurants, Some of our favorite places to dine out!

Part of the appeal of the restaurant, opened in 1984, is the sultry ambience, with slowly spinning ceiling fans and dignified servers, and the bewitching stroll through a tropical garden to reach the front door. The Caribbean and Southern menu has a touch of the French Quarter. BYO.

Named for an 1800s gambling parlor in the venerable Congress Hall Hotel, the Blue Pig serves breakfast, lunch, dinner and weekend brunch in a light-filled rustic dining room augmented with patio seating. The food is casual and largely American—at dinner, there’s meatloaf with mashed potatoes, fish & chips, burgers and pasta, as well as a kids’ menu.

Jack Wright, a native Scotsman, grew up on curries. When a storefront next to his Exit Zero publishing company became available a few years ago, he turned it into a homey restaurant, Exit Zero Cookhouse. Today it has a new name, a liquor license and an all-American menu in addition to the popular old curries. No reservations taken.

When you cross the bridge over Cape May Harbor, entering Cape May, the first big thing you come to is the Lobster House. It sits dockside on Fisherman’s Wharf, with its own fishing fleet supplying, among others, its huge seafood restaurant with full bar, its fish market and raw bar. Weather permitting, from May to October, one can also enjoy cocktails and light lunch or dinner on the deck of the 130-foot Schooner American, moored alongside. The restaurant and market are open 365 days a year. In our 2023 Jersey Choice Restaurant Poll, Lobster House was voted Best of the Best in South Jersey.

The Craig family, owners of the nearby fine-dining Washington Inn and the Cape May Winery, saw an untapped market for high-quality, reasonably priced, family-friendly dining, and created the 150-seat Lucky Bones in 2006. Open year-round, it offers crisp brick-oven pizzas, crisp Buffalo wings, creamless clam chowder, steaks and chops, and a full bar. But seafood is Lucky Bones’s forte, as befits its perch at Cape May Harbor.

Pancakes, French toast and mimosas, thy name is Mad Batter. Ask anyone in line on a Sunday morning. But, in fairness, there is much more (like full-menu breakfasts, lunches and dinners) to this OG of Cape May’s ’70s revival, fueled by gingerbread-happy Baby Boomers. The Batter opened in ’76 in the Carroll Villa Hotel and has been booming ever since. Dinner is eclectic, from chorizo paella to Tuscan fettuccine. There’s a kids’ menu and, keeping up with the times, a gluten-free one as well.

Once billed as among the best dive bars in America, Mayer’s reopened in 2018 under new ownership after a two-year renovation. Its attitude under chef/co-owner Alex Laudeman—her great-great-grandfather ran party boats in what became Cape May Harbor—brings to mind the old TV series Cheers. Kick back with a Dark ’n’ Stormy, margarita or rum and ginger beer, then dig into fried calamari, a cold shellfish tower or a burger with Dijon mayo. Arrive early to grab a table on the porch and revel in the sunset. —Lynn Martenstein

Founded in 1988 in Wildwood by Letitia “Tisha” Negro, this BYO moved to Cape May in 1995 when Tisha’s son Paul and his wife, Jennifer, took over. They are still serving sophisticated dinners—grilled salmon and shrimp with Thai chili sauce; short rib Bolognese with pappardelle—in a gracious setting. Lunch ranges from a variety of burgers, po’ boys and wraps to salads and risottos.
