    My bill
    Michael J.

    My server Jenna was excellent. She was prompt, courteous, polite, friendly all the things you want from a server. The food was excellent. I had a Freddie Jay's burger. My guest had the Asian fried chicken bowl, which was excellent. I wish I would've got that instead of my burger, however my burger was very good. The atmosphere is cozy and pleasant, very welcoming, chic bohemian style with a modern fla on its artwork and they decor.

    Freddy J's is an American restaurant & bar in Mays Landing next to the inn at sugar hill. The building looks small from the outside but has a large bar inside with plenty of seating throughout the restaurant. I was expecting only bar food, but was pleasantly surprised because it's definitely more than that - it's so delicious with something for everyone! Our server was attentive & quickly corrected my entree that came out with the wrong protein. I also liked paying with the QR code that made our exit very seamless. I loved their cocktails! I got the Mays Landing Sour which was a favorite drink of mine when I used to go to whiskey bars in my twenties, so it was very nostalgic! I also got the Pineapple Jalapeño Margarita which had a nice kick if you like things spicy like I do! The Poké Bowl is a new menu item & I love how customizable it is! I went with grilled salmon, brown rice & Asian glaze for mine & it was so perfect! I couldn't have asked for a better dinner that was healthy too! The crab rangoons were tasty, but heavy on the cream cheese & low on the sweet n sour sauce. I can't wait to go back & try some of their delicious smelling bbq that they offer on Fridays & Saturdays only. They also do brunch on Sundays & have fantastic sounding desserts that are calling my name next time!

    Berry Spicy Margarita

    We just moved into the area and came to Freddy J's for a late lunch on Saturday. Enjoyed She Crab Soup and a brisket salad, which was delicious. Topping the meal off was the Berry Spicy Margarita. The service was friendly and attentive too. BTW... I told the waitress that we are brisket snobs because we just moved from Texas... Freddy J's is right up there with the brisket that we've had in Texas! Thanks for making our first weekend as New Jersey residents a good one!

    Smoked Wings with Buffalo Sauce
    Michael T.

    We came here during Atlantic City Restaurant week and we loved it. It doesn't look like much at first, but once you get inside it's a pretty cozy bar and restaurant. The whole place was decorated from top to bottom with eye popping Halloween decor. There was a good crowd there even at 9:00 at night on a Wednesday watching a Phillies game. It's a neat place to watch a game because of the main bar area and the TVs everywhere. For the prix fixe menu, I ordered the 10 piece wings, meatloaf, and banana cheesecake eggrolls. My friend got the fried shrimp, salmon, and cookie dough lava cake. Even though I ended up with the wrong order of wings (was supposed to be BBQ but got Buffalo!), it was so good I didn't mind at all. In fact, those might actually be the best wings I've ever had. They were very meaty, smoked, and the sauce was better than your average Buffalo sauce. And that was only an appetizer! That dish is big and good enough to be an entree of its own. The main entrees were pretty good too. My meatloaf came jam packed full of food. It also had a corn bread, mashed potatoes, baked beans, and cole slaw. The corn bread was really good because it was topped with cinnamon butter. The dessert with the cookie dough cake was sooo good! The cookie was baked in a muffin stencil so it was a cookie but was also cakey. My favorite dishes are definitely the wings and the cookie cake. So in short: this place rocked from start to finish. Even if you don't drink it's a fun place to hang out and eat. Our service from Danny was wonderful, she was knowledgable about the area and menu. She even spotted the mistake with the wings before I did but I didn't mind. The food is fantastic and the prices are reasonable. I can whole heartedly recommend Freddy J's.

    Baked cornbread

    My sister and I decided to try out this hidden gem. We drove by it everytime we went to Mays landing . The place had its own unique vibe and I was all for it. The waitress was very attentive as soon as we walked in.. we sat down and looked at the menu... it was bar food at its finest. I decided on the smash burger and my sis the hot spicy chicken sandwich ... we also order never before this corn bread that was the star ... it was regular corn bread it was between corn bread and bread pudding ... it was fantastic with the maple butter. The meal was cooked to my liking and the waitress was so attentive even though she was the only waitress working ... the place was packed and she manage to get everyone's food to the table without any delay. . I'm glad my sister chose this place to eat mom & pop establishment is always better than chain restaurants which this place is surrounded bye . We had great food / great time and also bought back leftovers for the next day.

    Crispy chicken sandwich
    Alex N.

    This is not your average pub; the food, while familiar, is a notch above. Service was friendly and fast, and the interior clean and new. My son and I shared a Freddy J burger (with brisket, gilding the lilly for sure) and a Crispy Chicken sandwich . Our table shared the pork belly, which came with a great salsa; the belly could have been more rendered and seared, though. Cheese curds for the table as well.

    Pineapple jalapeño margarita
    Loni A.

    Have been wanting to try this place for a while. Went on a Saturday afternoon and this was our experience. The server was very nice (I didn't get her name but she had blond hair and on the day we went, she wore a pink tshirt). We ordered a pineapple jalapeño margarita and a gin and tonic. To eat, we ordered the hot honey wings (well done), pork belly bites, truffle fries and a brisket cheesesteak. Everything tasted just okay. Not terrible but nothing amazing. I was disappointed and for a price (with tip) of over $100, it seemed really expensive for lunch. I guess it's par for the course these days but not for the quality of food.

    Walnuts French Toast
    May J.

    Overall food's presentations are good, prices are fare. I tried walnuts French toast, not over cooked, not too sweet and not too much cinnamon powder, that's the way I like Chicken waffles truly recommend it, specially the sauce every bite can not without it Short ribs burrito not bad, but I would like to try their other menu Short ribs Mac & cheese more than burrito Lobster Benny tasted just way a little bit plain compared other 3s, maybe the sauce they didn't add enough lemon juice or missing some ingredients, good thing is I can taste lobster it's very fresh, and I loved that hush brown underneath Definitely will be return next time to try something else besides Sunday brunch

    Great little place that has a spot to bring your dog! Outside area was very cool. Our server Danni was the best. Had the wings which were pretty good Mrs had the chicken which was yummy as well. Even Gambino had the chicken. Prices were on par with everything else that's going on in the world. Best part. Left a dog bowl & They called to come pick it up. Will definitely be back

    a glass of beer and a dollar bill
    Michael G.

    Three of us went there after the Atlantic City airshow on August 24. Our bill came to over $150. As a beverage, I ordered a bottle of beer Off their beer menu which did NOT show prices. I have had this beer on other occasions and I've never spent more than $12. When the bill came, I noticed the beer was $28. Thinking it was a mistake, I asked the waitress and she said... No mistake. At that point I asked if the owner was available. He was polite but not willing to make an adjustment to the bill. I wasn't looking for a free beer. I was just looking for some sort of concession on the price so I did not feel so taken advantage of. These photos were taken 8/28/22. Please notice that the price for 16 ounces was 1/3 the price of a 12 ounce bottle at Freddy J's.

We had no wait for a table around noon, although they were briskly busy on this holiday. Our server was relaxed and not bothered by the commotion, took his time and helped us through our choices. No brunch cocktails for us, we dug right in to meals. I chose the peach burrata caprese salad plate with a side of blackened chicken breast. Although the menu said the peaches would be grilled, they were cold. Perfectly ripe and firm, a great sweet contrast to the balsamic vinegar drizzle. Creamy burrata, basil, and sliced grape tomatoes rounded out the plate. This was a superb salad. The grilled chicken was a $6 add and came on a separate plate. Generous sized, the breast was well seasoned and tender. We took some home with spouse's plentiful potatoes from the skillet. Spouse went with the meat lovers skillet with scrambled eggs and wheat toast. The skillet had ham bacon sausage and cheddar cheese with a huge pile of potatoes and two scrambled eggs. It also included wheat toast. This was a lot of food! This is a bright, well lit, smartly decorated restaurant, where I would love to have spent time at happy hour. Good service, good food, not overpriced at all. Maybe another visit next time we're in New Jersey!

Our waitstaff, Ben and Brittany, were phenomenal. They were attentive, accommodating, and went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly.

We also arrived a little early to put up some small decorations, and Ben was incredibly helpful in getting everything set up. The views were beautiful, and the food was delicious. Inside, there appear to be separate rooms available for private parties as well as regular dining, which makes it a cozy and versatile place for celebrations and larger events.

Served quickly and hot in a big, wide bowl. It looked good. Had small, irregularly sized potatoes and chopped carrots. The broth was a little thicker than I imagined or had tasted before in other restaurants, or in the one I make. Clams were tiny and, as you'd expect from a can. Not fresh clams. In fact, you can put all the clams found in chowder in a single tablespoon. Even found a whole bay leaf in it, which should have been removed before serving it. So, how is the chowder? I've had better from canned chowder, and the one I make is way better. Zero stars for the chowder. Next up is the Turkey platter with sliced turkey (hard and dry), 1 ice cream scoop of mashed potatoes (ok, nothing special), 1 ice cream scoop of stuffing (totally disgusting, and had corn in it), string beans (with vine still attached), gravy (terrible), and a little cup of cranberries (decent). Total fail. The waitress was ok, though stopping by every 5 minutes to ask if everything was good was quite annoying. The 'ice water gentleman' was great. You never asked for water, and when the glass was 1/2 empty, he was there refilling it. Great job! The final score of 2 stars is for the historic inn's ambiance and layout. We won't be back, and do not recommend.

The seating options consist of tables, bar, and what I believe they call "love pods", all of which are beautifully designed. We were seated at the bar, which is our preference anyway. I always like chatting with the bartenders and hearing about the craft, and it is particularly enjoyable when they're as friendly and generous as the folks who work here. We were talking to them about some of their infusions and they let us try a taste of the coconut mezcal and the bruleed banana infused rum and both were unreal on their own. We ended up getting the Coco Bello (coconut mezcal, apertif, aromatized wine) which is a white negroni variation and the Swamp Thang (green chartreuse, herbal liqueur, pineapple and poblano tepache), which was served in some particularly memorable glassware (pictured). Both drinks were exceptional and complex, the former more sophisticated and the latter wacky and wholly unique.

The bar occasionally offers live music, but my favorite time to visit is during the holidays, when they turn it into a festive Christmas spot with holiday beverages. There are fun decorations, strands of lights, Home Alone 2 playing on the televisions, and much more to really get you in the holiday spirit. I most recently tried the Pomegranate Margarita on their seasonal menu and thought it was excellent; it was not too sweet or too weak. I should note that there are rarely servers in the lounge area, so you typically need to go up to the bar to place an order, which can disrupt the flow of fun you might be having.
