Located just down the road from Jenkinson's Boardwalk is Shore Points Coastal BBQ. There's many options from steak sandwiches to tacos to burgers and salads, something for everyone. We were greeted right away from a friendly welcoming man and were seated right away. I had the birria taco and barbacoa taco - barbacoa taco was the best one. So flavorful and filling. The birria taco tried its best but if you want something authentic it's definitely not here for the birria taco. The broth was more tomato base than what it's supposed to be and the taco itself was a bit more tougher than the authentic Mexican dish. My son enjoyed his burger but didn't care for the fries or cheese sauce on the side he ordered. My fiancé didn't care for his skirt steak sandwich too much, as it was difficult to chew. The lemonade was delicious. Service was great - thanks Sophie (I think her name was?). There's free street parking nearby and there may even be a parking lot behind? We saw this possibility as we walked across the street after parking the car nearby. Ambience is casual. I'd definitely come back for that barbacoa taco! Yum! read more

We ended up at this place looking for breakfast on Sunday and everyone else had a huge wait in town. Boy are we happy we stumbled upon this gem. The food was great, they were welcoming with super fast service. We tried breakfast and we will be back todo lunch or dinner! read more

Place keeps getting worse. Besides removing great ingredients and items from the menu over the years the food has fallen off. Two very average size tacos cost $19?! I was expecting a taco like they used to have when they did taco Tuesday and one was just about enough for dinner. Description says grilled pineapple and they put what looked like canned pineapple with no grill marks whatsoever. They tasted ok but should be about half that price for what you get. Hot honey chicken sandwich my wife got was ok, chicken overcooked though with cold fries 20 minutes after calling in order. read more

Food is good and pleasant atmosphere. My only issue is you have to guess when they are open.

Food is amazing. We eat in and have trays for a party recently. Food is all spot on. Price was great too. They deserve the rating. We had ribs, pulled pork, bbq chicken, hush puppies, Mac n cheese. (Ribs and Mac are my go too) Had a little miscue on the pickup time. But they rallied and it was all good read more

Called and ordered the special of the day, Mozzarella sticks. Told out of them. Then ordered 12 wings, told only 5 left. This was at 2PM on Sunday. Very disappointing. 7 wings in package picked up and were so-so. The chicken and waffles and hot honey chicken sandwiches were very good. read more

This hole in the restaurant on Arnold Avenue is not your typical barbecue restaurant. With a broader menu, it is more than just barbecued meats and chicken. I had a barbecue brisket sandwich. My dining companion had tacos. The food was well prepared and the staff very friendly making one feel welcome. They also have a wide assortment of burgers and chicken sandwiches so there is plenty to choose from even if you are not into barbecue. read more

My brother and his wife have been raving about the breakfast at this place for years! I was skeptical because going to a BBQ place for breakfast felt weird, but BOY was I wrong. This might be my new favorite breakfast spot in Point Pleasant, and I'm almost hesitant to say that because we got in without a wait at 10 am on a Sunday and it feels like some kind of local secret. I shared the blueberry pancakes and Border Benedict with my mom. We love doing a sweet/savory split. Both were exceptionally good. The Benedict comes on a cornbread waffle and it was really special. The chipotle hollandaise was also unique and delicious! My fiancé and my aunt also really loved their meals- biscuits and gravy and a skillet. I'm so happy we gave breakfast here a try and can't wait to go back. read more

Excellent meal. Casual dinning. Friendly service. Slightly pricey. Would recommend.

We have been here fairly often and are always so happy with the food and service. Their onion soup is the best! You cannot go wrong with the Rueben, tacos or chicken sandwich. We almost always get something off the specials menu, and the homemade iced tea is a winner too. So many on the mark choices, really can't recommend it enough read more

We tried Shore Points for the first time last week and it was delicious! We had everything from ribs, chicken, brisket, pork, cole slaw and potato salad. Our servers were fun and friendly (Taylor (?) Im sorry I forgot!!) & Roger). Coming from TX my bbq expectations are high and this place hit that mark!! 10/10 recommend. read more

The food was delicious and very filling. There was no room for an appetizer or dessert. Service was excellent. The dining area opens up into the kitchen so you can see everything. It so organized that you don't hear any commotion at all. It seems like a family owned, small business which I prefer. Highly recommended. read more

This had the best quality BBQ food and breakfast. There menu is very unique. Portions are nice size. And the atmosphere inside the restaurant is very coastal. I love that is a family run business. My only beef is they are not open enough for me to enjoy there delicious food more. Milo gives this place Five Paws!!!!! read more

Tremendous food and great service, very nice staff!. Cosy to eat in or take out. My fav is the bbq chicken with sweet chili sauce. read more

I had the "Golden Arches" double burger, with a side of potato salad. Yes, you heard that correctly. They have potato salad as a side. "You had me at hello". The burger itself is a gourmet smash patty, In-n-out style burger. It was extremely flavorful and fresh tasting. Best burger I've had in forever. read more

As always the best. Had tacos they delicious, wife had the Rubin it was piled high & also delicious. Definitely a stop if you're in the area. read more

This is such a unique and amazing BBQ restaurant. They have their own twist in many dishes that you wouldn't traditionally associate with a BBQ joint including their Birria tacos (10/10) and my favorite, their beef burnt end tacos. The burgers are excellent, the owner and staff are friendly and courteous, and the restaurant is quaint yet accommodating. I've tried as much as I can from this place and haven't been disappointed once. My wife recommends the fire cracker shrimp, we get it every time! read more

i absolutely love this place and just moved back to north jersey, when they reopen after their winter break i will be making the hour drive down to have my favorites!! i dream about the thai sticky ribs, queso, fried chicken, and mango tango shrimp tacos! i am a loyal customer and whenever i was visiting jersey after i moved to vermont i always came back in! haven't found bbq like this anywhere else will add pics when i stop back in! read more

Made our first visit here this past Saturday and we were not disappointed! We are true BBQ snobs (admittedly) and this ranked up there among the best. On top of having good quality BBQ meats they do go the extra mile with a creative menu putting interesting twists on traditional sandwiches, burgers, salads and more. Definitely looking forward to coming back in the future to try more of their smoking concoctions. Their Taco Tuesday is on our bucket list! read more

The food here is so good. I have been here 3 times and each time the service and food quality has been on point. They always have great specials to keep the menu fresh and exciting. The mozzarella sticks were so good with the cheese that just pulls apart. The sandwiches were so hard to choose from so go with friends cut them in half or in quarters and share. read more

Holy moly was this place good. Everything was so flavorful. Lots of choices. Husband had the ribs and loved them. I had burnt end taco and it was to die for. The Mexican street corn was delicious. Will definitely be going back. Highly recommend. read more

Get in your car and bring your appetite! You will not leave hungry or disappointed. Shore points coastal BBQ gives a relaxed, friendly atmosphere with amazing dishes. After getting the blueberry lemonade and strawberry lemonade which came with fresh muddled fruit we just knew this place would be a hit. For appetizer we got the Thai sticky ribs which gave a new spin on a rack of ribs. They were fried to crisp perfection but still fall off the bone tender, the thai sweet chili sauce made you want to continue to eat them. For mains we got the Nashville chicken sandwich with French fries that did not fall below any fried potato standard, the chicken was white meat with a perfect fry. The beef burnt end tacos was our next main. The balance of these flavors was something you can only wish for. Fresh crunchy jalapeños, and sweet pineapple really topped off the BBQ flavor of the beef, the tortillas were also crispy and held together this monstrous taco very well. Do yourself a favor and stop in and meet the friendly staff, and fill up your belly on some great BBQ food !!! read more

Pulled pork sandwich with cole slaw on top (which I don't normally like ) but this slaw added a nice touch .. it was piled high and delicious for a very reasonable price also.. had shrimp bisque soup - amazing ! Ice tea flavor of the day triple citrus iced tea - again amazing !! Highly recommend this place .. glad they are fully back open and cooking fresh homemade foods !!! read more

We were here years ago and loved it. Then Covid. Then renovations. Finally we were able to return and our anticipation was satisfied with amazing food. I had the Cheesesteak sandwich special, made with ribeye, cheese sauce and sautéed onions. Beyond compare to any I've had. Rey had the special Onion Soup topped with a big fried onion ring! Cheesy and delicious, with a surprising light sweetness to the broth. Can't wait to return and try more dishes! read more

Friends have been telling me for a while to try this bbq spot, for breakfast! Glad I did, turns out that besides being great at bbq they know how to make some tasty pancakes, unique chicken & waffles as well as a great corned beef hash. Love the way many items can be ordered as short stacks or sides. Staff is always friendly and if you call ahead they'll usually add you to the waiting list (other spots take note!!) read more

Best food around!!! Everything from breakfast to lunch I've had here and all has been amazing!!!!

WOW I'm impressed! I had the cornbread waffle, and it came with honey butter. It was so unique and delicious!I had the Mac Daddy burger without the mayo or bacon. I had them add bbq sauce to it. It was one of the BEST BURGERS I EVER HAD! It was topped with fried Mac and cheese, caramelized onions, and the bbq sauce I added gave it so much flavor! It was a big and juicy burger too! It came with house made fries that were very good! The burgers come with fries, but some of the sandwiches come with potato chips. I'm not a fan of potato chips in general, and I'm wondering if I can substitute them for these delicious fries instead? I'll as next time. I asked what desserts they had as they didn't have a dessert menu online. I chose the banana, chocolate chip, and coconut bread which was good. If it had more chocolate chips and that were ooey gooey then it would of been amazing. They should add an ice cream sandwich waffle to their dessert menu since they make a perfect waffle. Right now during the epidemic they are only open 4 days a week as of now. I highly recommend Shore Points in Point Pleasant! read more

Took my daughter here for breakfast before her shift began this morning at a nearby establishment and we were so happy we chose Shore Points BBQ! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by a very friendly waitress and a gentleman I believe was the owner. They were super sweet and so welcoming. We both had omelets, and could not have been more pleased with the quick service, generous portions and incredibly delicious meal! Could not think of a single negative! We will be back - for sure! read more

This was our first time here and it did not disappoint. Our server was very friendly and provided great service. They appear to do quite a good amount of takeout business based on the number of folks picking up while we were there. Now let's talk about the food. First thing is that you should come hungry or be prepared to take food home. I decided to go with the Mac Daddy burger to sum it up...yum! It was a properly cooked large burger and loaded with delicious toppings. The fries were nice and crunchy. We will definitely be back because we will need to try other menu items including the awesome sounding breakfast. read more

Amazing place! Wonderful family owned restaurant. The onion soup is the best ever! Breakfast is my favorite.

Food is amazing!!! Portions are gray and prices are fair!! Staff is helpful and friendly for the most part. Quaint little spot right off the shore. Nice atmosphere. Breakfast is the best here as well read more

The service was friendly and pleasant The place was empty when we went on a beautiful Saturday We have tried all the BBQ in the area and this is hands down the best one The sauces and the meat were the best we have had anywhere let alone the shore The atmosphere was just a big open space with tables Nice staff great food and we will be back read more

Just left the boardwalk .... too frustrated to wait to be served on a hot weather during covid pandemic. Starving and ended up at Shore Points. I am so glad - it saved my day as we are really starving. Excellent staff . They served thirst quenching beverage- the three citrus iced tea and watermelon limeade. Our lunch are fabulous. Soft shell crab in brioche and my hubby is shrimp salad sandwich. Let me tell you - not any ordinary shrimp salad sandwich. Both are a must try. So if are heading to the beach and want to have decent lunch - I suggest order here and bring the food with you and you will never go wrong. Just order drinks at the boardwalk. read more

My family ordered catered ribs and pulled pork for a party and it was absolutely delicious! The ribs fell off the bone and the pulled pork was perfect. Highly recommend Shore Points! read more

BBQ is excellent and I always appreciate when the server puts down a stack of napkins and moist towelettes before the wings come out because I'm a disgusting slob when I eat. You can't go wrong with anything you order, service has been great every time I've been here. read more

UPDATE: Covid-19 edition. Ordered take out last night and couldn't have been happier with the food or friendly service. In what must be trying times, this place. The chicken and waffles were to die for. The bbq chicken sandwich was amazing. And even the tacos yummy. Can't wait to go back there. Dang! Where has this place been all my life?! Went to breakfast here over the holidays and was pleasantly shocked by how good it was. We all got a different Benedict and one was better than the other. We went back today for lunch and had the barbecue sampler to share. It was sooo much food - more than 2 could make a dent in. Not a vegetable in sight but boy was it good. We ordered the brown rice as a side - how interesting could that be? Well it was pretty darn good too! Doesn't look like anything from the outside and interior not fancy but the chef is super talented and the menu is inventive, fresh and delicious. read more

I saw a review of this restaurant last summer in NJ magazine describing how popular this place on trendy Arnold Ave is during the summer season where there are lines outside waiting to get in. Well, I have been here a few times with my fellow yelp buddy for breakfast and scored a table right away. Thats not to say the place was empty either. Quite the opposite. There is a large menu for both breakfast and lunch. The breakfast menu has a large selection of eggs benedict, omelets, waffles, and crepes. Too many options to make a quick decision. The avocado and cheese omelette I ordered was more of a fritatta than what I was expecting. The large scoop of guacamole on top made up for that. My second visit had me ordering the monterey style eggs benedict, a plate of 2 poached eggs on an english muffin topped with diced tomato, pepper, onion, and guacamole, finished with a light hollandaise sauce. Not bad. Unlimited coffee a plus too. read more

My buddy read about this place in a magazine, so we went. It's in Downtown Point Pleasant Beach, but it's a little off the main drag. When we went there was ample street parking. They are located in the same strip as the Poached Pear Bistro, which is another highly rated restaurant. But the two places are not really competitors because they offer different cuisine. We went for breakfast. I really liked how they have a huge selection of different types of Eggs Benedict. It's my favorite! Mine was a fusion between Pulled Pork and Eggs Benedict. The recipe was creative, and it worked. The iced tea was a better quality one, and they had no problem refilling my glass several times. The service was attentive, and they get you what you need right away. Although I felt oh so very slightly rushed, I can understand because it was Memorial Day. They had special hours for Memorial Day, so it might be good to double check if you want to go there on a day when they are not normally open. read more

This is a fantastic little restaurant with amazing food and service. We recently dined here for the first time based on Yelp reviews and it totally exceeded our expectations. We had pork egg rolls that were out of this world! They had a delicious pepper/onion/corn salsa inside that made them EXTRA. The chicken tacos were amazing! The service was top notch. Roger was friendly, efficient and funny. He said since we were good we could come back. Lol thank goodness! We definitely plan on going back. read more
