    Herb garden
    Sarah L.

    Visited here in the spring for lunch before most things were blooming. This spot is cute and it was fun to feed the chickens, but no real need to come back here. The only food that was pretty good was the breakfast sandwich, but the salad and hot dog were both pretty lacking. When we spent some time in the shop the cashier really pushed these tortilla chips on me that made it seem like they were locally made. There was a long line so I didn't take time to read the bag until I got home to find that they're made in a factory about 20 minutes away from where I live north of NYC, not even in NJ. After that weird upsell and the food being just okay, not sure that I would return.

    Carrot and dill bisque
    Cat C.

    What a beautiful property! My mom and I stopped here for lunch on our first trip to Cape May! We loved the grounds, with beautiful flowers, chickens, and tables to sit and eat. We ordered the carrot and dill bisque and harvest salad. Both were incredibly delicious! The salad was perfectly dressed and balanced out the soup nicely. To drink, we had a lovely elderberry lemonade! I would've loved to come back for dinner, but we were only staying one night.

    So cute!! Love the outdoor herb garden and free range chickens everywhere. It's a beautiful setting where you can find locally sourced products. Lunch was pretty great too. We got the chicken salad sandwich and breakfast roll. A great stop if you're in the area!

    We came during the week to take a break from the beach. I was under the impression that there would be more going on or more to do? The grounds are pretty and you can feed the chickens. They had a small shop and some options to buy lunch. I'm not really sure it was the best activity with kids. I was underwhelmed.

    The vibes here are just impeccable !!!! Words cannot do the grounds justice. It's just a gorgeous oasis of florals and greenery. There's a cafe so you can enjoy a coffee and a meal while taking everything in. There's also a shop that sells the cutest food and giftables. This would be an amazing spot for a wedding, and they were setting up for one when we dropped by. They also have other fun events like price fixe dinners and even a small inn that you can stay at. The food was just okkkk. I had a BLT, the bread was extremely soft and mushy and because the slices of bacon and tomato were so thick it was very hard to take a bite of the sandwich. It did taste yummy deconstructed though! My friends really liked their egg sammies though! Overall, this is a must visit when in Cape May! It's something really cool and different to do.

    We didn't have anything to eat here but I wanted to leave them a review anyway. This place is so stinking cute! The farm store has so much to offer from local food products to candles to decor. You can probably find something for everyone here. The garden was still there but didn't have much going on as it was the cold season already. From a quick glance, I don't think they had anything gluten free in their kitchen so I didn't bother investigating more.

    This is such a gorgeous farm with a spacious property around it that invites exploration. The farm-to-table food was fantastic. We tried the breakfast sandwich, green salad, and lemonade and everything was delicious. They also have a little shop where they sell home made foods and home goods. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. Ofc extra brownie points for the dog-friendly outdoor tables

    Farm-to-table perfection at Beach Plum Farm. We had the joy of attending the Summer Harvest Dinner, and it exceeded every expectation. The vibe was relaxed, the setting was beautiful, and the attention to detail from presentation to plating was exceptional. The Bolero carrots with ricotta and hot honey were unexpectedly bold and delicious, and the Carolina Gold rack of pork was cooked to perfection tender, flavorful, and paired with greens and slaw that brought it all home. One of the true highlights was Ed, the owner, who gave a heartfelt and hilarious welcome speech. He was incredibly approachable, and his energy made the entire evening feel personal. The head chef, a former merchant marine, was equally engaging down-to-earth and clearly passionate about his work. And yes, we were lucky enough to catch peak strawberry season. The strawberries & cream puff pastry was light, fresh, and the perfect sweet ending to a truly memorable meal. If you're looking for more than just a great dinner something immersive, soulful, and unforgettable this is it

    When I was planning my trip to Cape May, I received recommendations from several people to check out Beach Plum Farm. Contrary to popular belief, I'm not a farm person - but this didn't seem like a typical farm. That being said, I made plans to check it out after breakfast. BPF is located in West Cape May - even though CM is pretty walkable, it's best to drive here as the farm is located off gravel roads which are not pedestrian friendly. The farm itself is spread out over several acres - there's a lot of intricately designed foliage, as well as some greenhouses and even a few roosters walking about; the grounds are lovely. The heart of the farm, however, is a building that sits in the middle of the foliage - it's in here that you'll find merchandise as well as a small eatery. They have a good selection of items for purchase - pretty much what one would expect at a farm stand or general store. Some produce, meats, a few baked goods, jams and jellies, and some souvenirs. The eatery's menu, Beach Plum Farm Kitchen, has an ever changing menu and serves light breakfast and lunch items. You can take the food to go or sit at one of the outdoor tables and enjoy. It was raining when I went so I don't feel I got the best of BFC, but I really enjoyed my time here despite the lousy weather. It's definitely worth a trip over to West Cape May to check out.

    We came here for breakfast Just so lovely on a beautiful morning. Had iced coffee and a egg sandwich which was cooked perfectly on a brioche roll You order your food and they deliver it to your picnic table. Took maybe 5 minutes Great for kids to visit the farm area.

    Fresh flowers on every table
    Donna P.

    So I have mixed feeling with writing this review as I love coming here all year round. The relaxing atmosphere is wonderful. Love the gardens, fire pit on cooler days, fabulous dinner events in the barn and the store. The teas are so great. What has disappointed me over several years is how they changed the menu offering less and no gluten free as before. The food has been disappointing and expensive. 5 star for everything but the food is a 3.

    Kale and goat cheese quiche
    Elizabeth L.

    Fresh, fun, farmtastic! Love visiting family run establishments and this one was just a piece of heaven. The land was beautifully kept, with little gardens all around and fresh florals and herbs everywhere you look. Fire pits and loads of seating options. Inside the market you can order food and drinks or pick up one of a number farm grown or local goodies. Food, treats, sauces, jams, honey, books, flowers, stuffies the etc. Friendly staff, and they were kind enough to start up a fire pit when we arrived due to the colder temperatures that morning. We grabbed the kale goat cheese quiche which was YUM! You could taste the freshness of the roasted kale, and the fluffiness of the eggs delish! It was paired with a mixed green side and oil and vinegar We also ordered the carrot coconut soup to go, which I had the next day and it was so fresh and clean tasting. Just natural sweetness of the carrot no added flavor necessary. And just a bright gorgeous orange. The kiddos had a chance to visit the three new piglets and feed some chickens but no other animals at the time we visited. Would absolutely visit again, fresh food, wonderful grounds and ample seating.

    WEST CAPE MAY: Beach Plum Farm is a gorgeous farm that grows their own produce and herbs and feels like a little slice of heaven being amongst the garden and trees. Leashed dogs are allowed at the outdoor property and Brie loved walking through the grass and sniffing everything she could find. There is an outdoor kitchen to get a sandwich and drink and then dine picnic table style in the serene environment. There is also an indoor market that sells the fresh produce, local products, and a great place to find a gift. The business manager on Yelp says dogs are allowed inside, but please check before you enter. There are chickens on the property, so use caution when exploring.

    Do we need a reservation for lunch? We are a party of four and will be visiting on Saturday May 9th. 12:30 would be perfect

    I did not make a reservation for lunch! I went on a Friday afternoon in April and ordered at the counter for lunch. There were plenty of tables to sit outside, and the food was brought to us at our table.

    Is there a dog friendly outdoor area?

    We love well-behaved, socialized dogs at Beach Plum Farm, they are even allowed in the Farm Market but please make sure to keep them on their leashes.… 

    Is this place open year round for breakfast/lunch? Or just dinners in the off season? Thanks!

    Operating days and hours vary by season. You can always check the official Website for current hours.

I was recommended the tiramisu waffle and it did not disappoint. Loved it. Very old school diner feel. The beachfront location makes it an easy stop before heading to the beach, and the portions were generous. I'd absolutely return on my next Cape May trip. Keep in mind they do not accept credit cards and send you next door to get cash from the atm. There's no mention on this in Google and caught me and apparently the line of diners behind me by surprise as we had to pull cash for our meal after service. Would've been nice to know before hand but doesn't take away from the good food. Will return!

The beer selection is always impressive, with plenty of options to satisfy just about every taste. Service can be hit or miss depending on when you visit and who's working, but that's often the case at busy shore destinations. My family stops here on almost every trip to our home on the Cape May Bay, so we've experienced it at its best and busiest. The atmosphere is exactly what you'd expect from a popular shore restaurant. And yes, if you know about the bathroom situation, you know--it really deserves a permanent fix rather than another temporary patch. The menu offers something for everyone. The pizzas are consistently good, the bar food delivers exactly what you'd expect, and there are several signature dishes that are always reliable and full of flavor. When the restaurant gets crowded, you'll definitely notice it in both the service and the overall vibe, but that's just part of the shore experience. Overall, I'd recommend giving it a try. Go in with realistic expectations during peak times, and chances are you'll have a great meal. We almost always do, and I think you will too.

So we went early (no problem being seated around 5:30 or so, but it did seem full an hour later) and were we ever rewarded. Everything was simply perfect, including Vicki, our veteran and down to earth waiter. When we are unsure of things, she provided expert guidance with kindness and wisdom. The mussels appetizer are an experience not to be missed - save the bread for lapping up its saucy juice. My wife loved the pork chop - its huge and she took half home for lunch. I devoured the blackened fish of the day over bok choy. Both simply were outstanding. If/when again in Cape May again, we'd certainly come back. With a reservation!
