We always seem to before heading to the beach. Subs, chips and maybe a side. Team is friendly and works efficiently as long as you don't get behind a family with kids who are not prepared to place their order. It is what it is.

What can you say about bagels? As a Brooklyn Boy, I can say that these are tast, properly made, and the right size - meaning not too big.

Clean, good place to go to grab a smoothie. Friendly staff, good service. Like being able to utilize coupons! It's a little tricky to get into the parking lot.

If you are looking for good local Ice Cream, Super Sundaes is a good choice. It is a store front establishment, so doesn’t have a real summer Ice Cream place with people hanging out outside eating ice cream. A place like Boardwalk Ice Cream in Manville is more of a real place I would think of to bring my family for a summer treat on a warm evening. I’ve visited Super Sundaes a number of times over the years, but never get a warm welcome feeling from the guy behind the counter. I believe it’s a husband and wife team that owns the place, she brings the customers in and his snarls chase them away. The ice cream is good, fair prices but not a place you would go out of your way for.

Was told to come here by someone who knows I like Thai food. Didn't disappoint. For soup, I had the Jurd Moo sup (Tofu soup with ground pork, mushroom, napa, baby corn, onions, scallions). They put the ingredients in the broth when you order it so it stays fresh. It was delicious. For main course, I had Pork Pad Cashew (Sautéed with bell peppers, cashew nuts, celery, onions and scallions.). It was in a very tasty and flavorful sauce. And of course, the rice was cooked perfectly.

Petrock's Bar and Grille

Reviewed By travelbug08502 - Hillsborough, New Jersey

Petrock's offers a large variety of selections at reasonable prices. Recently went on a Saturday night and enjoyed the seafood tacos, delicious burger and vegetable lasagna. It's a little noisy when the bar is full but that didn't detract from the overall experience. Staff was friendly and accommodating.

Angelo's Family Restaurant & Pizzeria

Reviewed By Safetyguy_328 - Yardley, Pennsylvania

Been here before, convenient to meeting location. Adequate parking and fast seating. Place is reasonably clean and quiet. Pizza by the slices with about 8 choices. Had sausage and a mushroom. Both had as ranch style, very good! Price is great for the value. People are friendly. Lots of take out and deliveries. Not crowded. Place is a little worn and tired but not unsanitary.

Joe's Family Pizzeria & Restaurant

Reviewed By Rocky P - Manchester, Vermont

Many choices in this area. None are particularly good and this place joins the group. Pizza variable - get it fresh - not reheated as they do. Avoid the pasta pomodoro unless you like tons of intact tomatoes with minimal sauce. Try marinara instead. Major gripe is consistent “errors” in tallying up the bill. Check their numbers carefully- they almost always add a few extra bucks into your bill. Beware.
