November 2024 - JoyBoys All Star Bagels

Situated in the heart of Barnegat, we’re the local go-to for fresh, made-from-scratch bagels baked daily. Whether you like them toasted, topped with rich cream cheese, or served as one of our signature breakfast sandwiches – like the classic bacon, egg, and cheese – we’ve got the perfect start to your morning.

October 2024 - Naples Italian Ristorante & Pizzeria

Since 1984, Andrea Esposito has been serving up culinary delights for Naples’ customers, many of whom return for the delicious food week after week. With several varieties of freshly made pizza, served up 7 days per week, sumptuous Italian homestyle meals and an amazingly friendly atmosphere, it’s easy to understand why it’s such a favorite.
