    Cute breakfast/lunch restaurant right on the Manasquan River. The large boats block the water view but you have the on the water vibe. Lol. They offer inside and outside dining. My husband had breakfast (the create your own omelette) and I had lunch (the chicken salad wrap). The food and environment were good. The price was very reasonable with nice portion sizes. The reason for my 4 star is the service. We were very confused as to who our actual waitress was. Once seated a server came over within minutes. We ordered our drinks which came quickly. We were still looking over the menu. That's when it got strange. She never came back. We had to tell someone else we were ready to order. Someone different came out to take our order. Food came out pretty fast (by a third different person). Then no one again to check on us. My husband wanted more coffee and I needed another ice tea. I took both of our cups inside for a refill. This waitress apologized. Our check came quickly. We left. Neither of us did anything to offend anyone. We are always polite. So we have no idea why the bad service. I never like to give anything less than a 5 star but unfortunately I cannot do that for this restaurant. But give them a try.

    (Formerly named Pixie's) Our post-Thanksgiving breakfast was surprisingly great! While the majority of folks were out and about searching for deals, we decided to discover a new breakfast eatery. Alyssa, our Rockstar server, hustled through the tables dropping off OJ and picking up dirty dishes. This cozy spot back on the Marina property sure delivered with the corned beef omelette, toast and red skinned broasted potato quarters. $11 My make your own omelette gave me several ingredients to add to my eggs and it was steaming hot and fresh. (same sides) $11 A plate of cinnamon roll pancakes also delighted the palate. $8 One star deduction for the weak and over heated coffee @ $2.50. I'm not a coffee snob but do like it hot and fresh.

    We had a great experience here! We got here at around 2:15pm to kick off our day at the beach. Even…read morethough the The Food Shack closes at 2:00pm, the server behind the counter was very gracious and still took our order (and the orders of some people behind us) without complaining. We were really impressed by the location. The Food shack is located right on the beach which is the perfect way to enjoy a lunch on a Summer day in Point Pleasant. They have lots of umbrellaed outdoor seating, and some benches in the sun, so there are options for everyone. They also have some indoor seating, and the inside is adorable. We ordered a swiss grilled cheese with tomato on top, and a BLT. Each item came with pickles and a bag of chips. Each item was priced reasonably, especially considering typical Jersey Shore pricing. My grilled cheese was great. The bread/cheese/tomato ratio was perfect. The cheese was gooey, and stayed gooey even as the sandwich cooled. The bread on the grilled cheese was crispy on the outside and still soft and warm on the inside. I didn't know what to expect from a small shack on the beach, especially with something as simple as a grilled cheese, but I really enjoyed it. The BLT also had a gread tomato/bacon/lettuce/mayo ratio and wasn't too greasy. Overall I will definitely be coming back!

    Have come several times since it changed hands and wanted to finally give a review. Loved John &…read moreElayne's, went there for years with my father-in-law. At the Point is amazing as well! Not often does a place do as well or better than the last place when it changes hands and the previous joint was a local favorite. At the Point IMHO is one of those such spots. The menu is flat out one of the best I've seen in years! So many amazing choices from savory to sweet, creative fun names for everything, outstanding choices, tons of options for every palate. They kept some of the staples from before which is a nice hat tip to tradition but you can also tell the new chef/owner wanted to have some fun with the menu and it's a hit in my book! The food is very fresh, coffee hot and delicious, and the service is as good as it always was! Tanya is the best! The pancakes are next level, all of their omelettes I've tried have been dynamite, favorites include the French Onion Omelette, Reef & Beef and Juan in a Million. Today we had the Sunrise in Tulum Birria tacos and Country Benny (okay along with a flight of pancakes, stop judging). Everything was great! Avocado toast options are fantastic as well. Love seeing such an iconic local breakfast joint not only stay as good as it's always been but actually improve. This is a can't miss for breakfast or lunch if you're in Point Pleasant Beach or even just passing thru. Keep up the great work At The Point Diner!

The food was good. Hubby got eggs Benedict and I got an egg white omelette with avocado and fresh fruit. The avocado was a little brown so it wasn't freshly cut, but the fruit was fresh and juicy. I was glad to get multi-grain toast! Next time there, though, I'll definitely bring a sweater as the AC made me cold.
