First of all an apology for taking so long to get with one of the best places to eat around . We…read moremoved down a couple years back oct 24 and finally made it TBD. A lovely greeting on entrance. My wife and I used to work at an iconic eatery in phila called Taylor's country store and both of us looked at each other and said we get the same vibes. The decorations were just what you'd hope for in an eclectic little restaurant. Located on the edge of the villas maybe 15 mins from wildwood and cape May if you're visiting down the beach or shore don't sleep on this place. Now for the food we were looking for lunch we have our go to spots but wanted to change it up and I'm so glad my wife chose TBD. Has a great menu with something for everyone. I got a hot roast beef because it's one of my favorites. Side of fries hand cut. First the sandwich was everything I had hoped for I go a couple Roast beef sand places but this has shot to the top. Gravy on the side is how it came and it was just what the sand was meant for ciabatta roll soaked it up perfectly, no prob I'm not a fan of the disintegrating gravy sand I like to control the gravy. Roast beef was thick but not out of control thick,didn't need sharks teeth to bite through it. And not any gristle which definitely mattersHorseradish on the side a little bite not your make your nose run hot but hot enough. Hand cut fries delicious crispy hot and a perfect pairing to dip in the gravy. The pickle was exactly how you want a deli pickle to be crunchy fresh and sharp flavored w real dill I will say it again perfect . My wife had the burger it was huge tasty I know because I had half the right amount of everything. She chose the fresh homemade chips they were marvelous too I know because I grudgingly gave up a few fries to have some chips. It was big enough she said she would be skipping dinner. Anyway it's the kind of place you leave saying I can't wait to go back and try the other choices because you know they will all be made with culinary care and taste great. Don't step nod or miss this place. Being on weight watchers I know I'm gonna regret finding it, but you shouldn't it's on rt 47 the sign w the two black dogs sorry no pics of the food but I was hungry and scarfed it down before thinking

Stopped by while driving to the Villas. This is a local spot on the side of the road. Inside, it's…read morea reasonably simple sit-down space. There weren't many people sitting down to grab dinner on a Saturday night. We did notice there were several people stopping by to pick up their delivery orders. They all seemed to be locals. There are several cats laying around outside. I stopped by and ordered the shrimp po'boy since they ran out of oysters. They said the order will be ready in 45 minutes, which is a bit long for rush hour (dinner service) on a Saturday night. The waiter mentioned there were 2 orders in front of me. That says a lot. Not a lot of kitchen staff basically. Maybe it's a one man show inside. They actually were done within 30 minutes. The food came out fine. It was filling. Nothing mind blowing. The shrimp was fine. The fries were delicious. Maybe the sandwich seemed dry. Price wise - it was reasonable. They only take cash so make sure you have cash handy. Would this be my go to spot? Hard to say because it takes a while, but it's okay if you plan ahead.

Turkey special meal was lukewarm. Should have ordered water because soda was not good, too much syrup. The only thing I can say is it was quiet, service was good & french fries were very crispy & tasty. Prices are not conducive for the quality. I understand it is a "local place" but it is almost unwelcoming to new residents. Would think they would want & need need business, was not busy. Will try breakfast next time & see what happens.

We were offered the bar with a limited menu. And I mean limited!! We ended up having oysters, deviled eggs and splitting a burger.

You drive through a bunch of marshland to get to Fortescue, which is both a small town and a public beach. Several restaurants are in town, in addition to other local businesses. They even have a post office! There is ample paved parking (FREE) along the breakwater wall between the sand of the beach and the road. The strip of beach is a decent length, not like those at the large traditional Jersey Shore beaches, but walkable, clean, and free of nature debris, so you can set your gear up there for a day at the beach. Beach fishing happens there all year; anywhere along the bay is super popular with fishermen. No rough surf like is present on the Atlantic side of the NJ peninsula, and unlike the Atlantic side, you can see the sunset over the water here. There are multiple preserves and hiking trails around this town, and bustling Millville is just over 20min away. At the time of this review, it appears there is at least one commercial lodging option to stay in town (in addition to private rentals). Roads are paved and flat, so this is a fun place to ride bikes as well. I have not visited in summer, but with the vast acreage of nearby marsh, I would expect the bugs to be fierce in warm months. Summer crowds may be a factor too. The best time to visit, IMO, is the off-season!
