Specialties abound at the Jersey
Shore. Culinary historians claim
that macaroons can be traced to a
9th-century Italian monastery, but
you don’t have to travel that far. The
Macaroon Shop in Avon has been
making delicious baked goodies from
scratch since 1930, including a huge
variety of layer cakes, their famous
dairy- and gluten-free coconut and
almond macaroons and other glutenfree
treats.
Already known for its wide, familyfriendly
beaches, Belmar is rapidly
becoming a culinary destination.
Mr. Shrimp is the place to go for
fresh-off-the-boat seafood. Downtown,
Belmar Plaza is home to a number of
popular eateries. Start your evening
with a visit to Beach Haus Brewery,
offering brewery tours and taproom
visits along with retail and growler fills.
Brandl is a fashionable BYO bistro with
a relaxed ambiance featuring elevated
New American cuisine and live jazz.
Recent years have also seen an
explosion of exciting new restaurants
in Highlands to suit every palate.
The original WindMill opened in
1963 in the West End section of
Long Branch. The iconic windmillshaped
building’s deck overlooks the
ocean, and its blades proudly light
up the night. This location—which
the Star-Ledger listed as a top entry
for everyone’s bucket list—is one of
six WindMill Restaurants dotting the
Jersey Shore. Though it is best known
for award-winning hot dogs and todie
for cheese fries, favorite son Bruce
Springsteen recently mentioned the
WindMill as one of his favorite places
for cheeseburgers!
