First time hitting a Jersey Shore nightclub. The club is a bit small on the inside, compared to what I'm used to in nightclub sizing. The ceilings are super low which makes it hard for things like floaties (which we're going around the club that night) to get passed around. Since the ceilings are low, so are the light fixtures. Things that are actually really good about this club: first, there is an abundance of bars. They have 5 bars inside. I didn't visit the outdoor area so I'm not sure how many they have outside. I did see that there are volleyball courts outside along with a stage for the DJ performing for the night outside though. Second, there's not a strict dress code for the club so it's easy to pick something to wear. I wore cargo shorts, a t shirt, vans, and a SnapBack which is not usual Friday night attire for a nightclub, but I got in no problem and found others wearing things similar. The indoor DJ booth is a bit small, but it makes for a pretty cool experience because you can actually see the DJ. Overall, good experience here. I'd come back to kill a Friday night. read more

We came out to see a band we like (killin time) on a Saturday afternoon. Tons of seating in shade or sun. Reasonable drink prices. Bartender was up beat, nice and prompt. There's a very swampy dirty pool there which is kind of a turn off. It's roped off but an ugly eye sore. There's volleyball courts people were playing at. It's a huge place. Room to dance in front of the entertainment. We shared a nacho platter- plenty for 4 people with really good chunks of chicken on top. read more

Worst experience of my entire life, paid $35 to see a certain DJ perform and when we got to the door, they told us they were not coming "due to flight cancellations" and only refunded us $10. We later we got confirmation from the DJ we were supposed to see that there was no flight to even be canceled. The show wasn't happening to begin with because Headliner didn't sell enough tickets for them to even come and perform (shocker because the place is a dump!) The guy at the front gave us free drink tickets to make up for this that could be used "for any drinks". We went to the bar and ordered drinks and when going to pay with the ticket, the bartender was so beyond nasty to us because the drink tickets were "not valid". These were probably the worst mixed drinks I've ever had in my entire life as they tasted like straight rubbing alcohol topped with limes, and she wouldn't remake them because they were "already poured". The crowd this place attracted was not good and the place itself was dirty smelling like BO. I would never recommend this place to anyone in 1 million years, if you wanna go out down the Jersey shore hit up osprey, djais, leggetts, jenks, or honestly any other establishment because I promise you, you will not enjoy yourself at the headliner. read more

The Headliner - DJ cancellation confirmation, we were lied to by the owners and workers. - Bars Near Me - Rote, New Jersey

This place was actively disgusting. Went in the afternoon for bands and there was 2 day old vomit in the bathroom. No soap until someone brought in a soap jug filled with water. It was exceptionally and offensively gross even for a bar/nightclub. read more

Came here to see a dead cover band on a Saturday night. I have never been here but got some buffalo chicken wings that were decent.

Used to work here, back in the day. Apparently, things have gone downhill. We were DOORMEN and FLOORMEN. The thugs that came there wanting to be bouncers, we got rid of. We had mostly professional people working there; teachers, coaches, bank secretaries. My partner was the head of the Physics Dept in a local high school, and I investigated delinquent mortgages for two mortgage companies. No one came to work looking to rough people up, and for sure, no one stuck their elbows in any woman's eye. It really hurts me to read these reviews of what used to be a terrific place to spend the evening. read more

We were a big table of 10 all from out of town (I'm from England) when we got there the security people couldn't have been more helpful, or the man that took us to our table. But then, we tried to split cheques for food and that was a problem, however our waitress tried to help us sort that out and we were good. The pool is relatively small, but enough to play games. We had a lot of fun and were able to enjoy our friend's birthday celebrations, everyone was really attentive. The thing that really ruined it for us was that there was a photographer for the venue that made a comment saying "I can't get the shots that I want because there are fat ass bitches in the way" it was disrespectful and had a huge impact on the majority of our party. We were really offended and would have spent much more money however after that comment we felt very uncomfortable and decided to leave. It was a real let down to what could have been a great visit. It was a lot of money (c.$2K for a cabana that I for one regret spending because I felt so very insulted) read more

This is a club but I've never partook in any of those type of happens. The bar & grill has great burgers and good happy hour specials on drinks and apps. read more

This is one of the places that we picked after coming to New Jersey and we regret it. The security was very rude. When he checked our id, he broke an id and couldn't apologize for the life of him. He was really rude and disrespectful. When we went inside to ask for assistance to see if they could help us get someone to get money for the id that he broke and for the disrespect we received. To no luck the the manager had no clue what to do, like his job wasn't to manage his employees and manage his business. The manager literally asked us what do we want him to do when he acting like he's not the one that was trained to deal with these situations. We left that place cause we couldn't come to a solution. If anyone want to try this place I wouldn't recommend this place. They don't seem to take accountability for there action and I would recommend anywhere else. I would rather stay home than ever go back there. read more

On a Friday night, this is the best place to go for the "not so young". 70s, 80s, 90s music, great crowd. Food is good, we've had the pizza and the mahi sandwich. All outside, local, employees are so nice and sometimes watch a fun volleyball game! Best Friday nights!!! read more

Absolutely horrible service. The bouncers and security were absolute Assholes. Service was more than subpar. Absolutes assholes and ruined my Hallloweekend. I highly recommend choosing a different spot for you're festivities. Honestly thanks a lot for ruining my favorite holiday. Paid for all of my buddies costumes, and ended up big being let in because I tripped. Pathetic. Not to mention, this club was letting me in when I was underage. read more

Thanks for hosting New Year's Eve. It's outdoors which is fine, but you CERTAINLY don't have sufficient heaters. I pity you honestly. You must really need our business because it's 36 degrees outside. Hope you guys can withstand the remainder of COVID-19 cause this is sad. read more

I happened to show up on country night of all days... not my thing but the crowd that showed up was the 50+ crowd... more 60+. It's cool. We all deserve to have fun, and they were just a nice and the men knew the importance of buying shots for the cute younger girls next to them. Now this was the outside area which has multiple bar area, food, large pool. Inside the bar area was a full soul band singing r&b. They were pretty awesome. Not sure if the night club was open yet, but we were pretty entertained. If you want a seat at the bar you want to come earlier. We go in before 5pm on a Friday. There's a hype man on a mic in the main outside bar asking questions for giveaways. Plenty of food to choose from from salads to pizza and wings. This place probably has a little something for almost everyone depending the night. read more

Ugh, ugh and UGH! Came here Memorial Day. (Sunday night into Monday) With this notion and knowledge alone, right off the bat, it was bad idea, but whatever. I came mostly because my future bro-in-law knew the DJ and his crew or something like that. Paid like, $20 per person to get in or something ridiculous like that. The place is big, with different bars set up in different locations throughout. Your typical summer club - inside and outside areas, blah blah blah. Nothing special and given that it was a holiday weekend, IT WAS BEYOND PACKED with (needless to say) meatheads and bimbos. Welcome to the Jersey Shore though! What else can you expect???? Made the best of it, while trying to just chill in the area of one of the bars, or else I felt I would drown in the immense, drunken and rude crowd - elbowed and stepped on, pushed and shoved - LOVELY! I have to say we did have SUCH A GREAT and SUPER NICE bartender (whose name I forgot) She took care of us all night since we stayed in that one particular spot (and so did we tip-wise, at the end of ours.) Nothing special about the drinks though other than they were cheap - bottom-shelf liquor, I AM SURE! (Our bartender though is by the way the reason I am giving this place one star!) NOW. THE BATHROOMS. Holy CRAP!! LITERALLY!!! Absolutely FILTHY AND DISGUSTING!!!! The lines were, as expected, freaking endless - but the horror one encountered once IN the bathroom - just beyond anything I have ever seen in my life. Clogged toilets, vomit, no running water, soap or toilet paper!! One girl in one of the bathrooms was PASSED OUT in one of the stalls - she had locked herself in and had passed out!! Security had to intervene and get inside to help with poor soul out (what a sight that was - smeared make-up, a busted lip and eyes bloodshot, bulging out of her head, I mean something a-lá Courtney Love in her "glory days"...) while you have a bunch of other drunken broads in this tiny, nasty bathroom waiting in a single-file line doing the pee-dance - I CAAAAAAN'T! It was just ASININE. Do NOT attempt to step foot into the place on a holiday weekend!!!!! I won't attempt to EVER step foot into this place all together. read more

Went here the other night for my first time with some friends. It was around 10pm when we arrived and the line was real short which was great. Once we got in it was packed but the place is huge so there's a bunch of room. The bouncers and security were good. The bartenders were friendly and did a good job with drinks. There was a $10 cover which wasn't bad either. This place has pools but that's for the daytime and also volleyball courts. Prices of drinks aren't bad either. They have many spots with bars to go to so you don't have to be in the same place the whole time. I'd definitely recommend this place, you'll have a great time! read more

Been coming here on Friday and Saturday nights that past few summers and its a good time. Bartenders are cool and I've gotten to know a couple of them. The music is always good (if you're into EDM) and it gets packed on weekend nights. The last time, which was this past Memorial Day Sunday, they were doing renovations outside, trying to turn the outside into a pool club (like Vegas). That though took a lot of the space away yet they still tried to fill the place to the amount they usually fit. This made the bar very packed and it was impossible to go between inside and outside. I came because Laidback Luke was playing that night which I thought was real cool. It's definitely a fun place to be at just not when management decides to get greedy and let as many people as they can fit in the place in. But with the new renovations coming and their Sunday night events featuring world renown DJs, I would definitely come back to check it out. On an aside, to no fault of the establishments, the people that come here can be very snobbish and excessive to say the least, but hey it's the Jersey Shore. read more

The bouncer was rude. He got mad at us for stepping out of an uber and taking a sip of a dr pepper. Started screaming at us over something that did not happen. Terrible bouncers they think they are so powerful but truly hate their lives. read more

the bouncers are great very helpful and nice had a great time! best place ever!

Nice outside area but drinks are overpriced and weak. Found out the owners wife was the bartender, maybe why. Left a bad tip, after all she's getting all the profits anyway. Bouncers are a bit rough around the edges towards guys. Typical jersey shore testosterone place. Spent NYE there and won't go back. read more

"We don't pump our gas, we pump our fists." Guidos, shore whores and sunburnt bennys all co-existing in harmony? yes, it is in fact possible. HUGE indoor area, inexpensive drinks and volleyball in the back. Yes, yes and YES. Why are people whining about juice-heads? IT'S THE SUMMER AT THE JERSEY SHORE. I'm sorry, but if you go ANYWHERE that has a dance floor...that is who you will see. Embrace it and go lift a weight, cardio queens. read more

I have enjoy many a looonnnggg nights here. Always crowded but behaved as well. People are looking to have a good time and not trouble. Lots of different bar locations within the facility and the drinks are always flowing, which is nice. I plan to visit in 2019 and check out the pool, looks like fun. read more

love this bar! if youre a day drinker in the summer time, like me, Saturday and Sunday pool parties are a MUST! ALSO if you know you're going to be with a group of 8 or more for your birthday, you can book your party online in advanced and receive a super discounted drink menu for you and all of your guests for the duration of your party! read more

Okay, I'm not sure how to even start this review. I ended up here for the first time last Friday during Happy Hour to celebrate the start of a co-worker's 50th Birthday weekend (yes, I said weekend...don't ask). Apparently, she and her friends are big regulars here and I didn't really know what to expect. Thank God I went into it open-minded. First off, this place is pretty huge (it's biggest 'plus') with multiple bar areas, all serving mediocre beer/liquor, which seemed to please the ever-growing eclectic crowd just fine. Not finding anything exciting on tap, I ended up drinking Blue Moon (I really hate admitting that) for the duration of my sentence, oops, I mean visit. In all seriousness, this place wasn't too horrible, but then again, I usually have fun no matter where I go, especially when it comes to 'people watching' (with whispered commentary). Needless to say, I had plenty of material for a fun evening. From what I've heard, this place is much 'better' during the summer months. Am I willing to find out? No comment. read more

I will never again give a cent to this washed up facility. Nor would I allow any of my friends to step into to such a dive. Horrendous service, terrible atmosphere, the employees may just possibly be a step above worthlessness....on a good day. I've never once witnessed an establishment with so many incompetent people, who can't seem to grasp the concept of customer service. Everything about this place screams shit show. Don't ever waste your money by going here. Much better ways to enjoy your time at the shore than this pathetic establishment. read more

The only thing I like about this place is that it is huge. The indoor area has a large dance floor with several bars sprawled about. They also have an outdoor area with a bunch of smaller areas in between. They primarily play house music, but it very fist-pumpy. I've definitely heard better. The crowd is full of juice heads & girls with big poofs in their hair. It looks like a place the Jersey Shore cast would go. music is okay (just starting to get into house). There was one bartender who had a heavy hand; overall drinks are averagely priced (4 shots of patron $42). read more

We came back to the Headliner to see The B street Band! No Cover, $2.50 Coronas on Sunday. Nice mixed crowd and great music.

Was here for an all day charity event, and the staff did an AMAZING job taking care of everything we needed. The food was great, and service was terrific. Thanks again from Tails of Hope! read more

Best Friday happy hour around, huge outside deck, live music and ice cold drinks. Saturdays are my personal favorite, as the house music inside is thumping, and outside on the deck it's more of a vocal house/dance vibe. Even when it's busy there's plenty of space and you can always get a drink. If your active, (or like active girls) check out the summer volleyball - Monday through Friday Memorial Day - Labor Day. read more

So there is a bouncer who thinks he is the head of the line being the boss and what not telling people he can't get in for a birthday list saying he dosent want to deal w so and so"s rowdiness at the bar but than again he is there every Monday for Monday funday and you turn him down on the night he is on a list for a birthday .. how does the make sense ?? It's retarded . Knowing the fact that he is there for every Monday fun day and then his best friend has a birthday party there and you guys did Nite him and tell him he can't get in what type of BS is that? read more

I came here for a New Year's Eve party. When I got there I was a bit thrown off because it wasn't very spacious or fancy looking. But getting a drink was very easy with bartenders spread throughout. They even have a free photobooth which was a nice touch. The DJ was great and played some top 40s and got the crowd going. There were TVs so we can see the ball drop. Overall a good time! I deducted one star because after a while drinks were spilling left and right - I wish they had someone to clean because it was getting uncomfortable to even stand on the sticky dance floor. Also the second dj wasn't as good as the first. However I would go back and I had a fun night. read more

When you think you are going to have a good time this must be the worst place to go. When you go there with your girlfriend and someone throws ice in the girl friends face - You will do something about it. Bouncer , gets you in a head luck and you can not breath you get that stranght and you flip him over. Before you know it 4 other bouncer are biting up on 160 lbs. person and then throwing him down the stair -Of course police was called and he gets arrested , arrested because he asked "who throw ice in my girl friends face, bitten up by 4 bouncers . From what I hear nothing you can do against these people you will never win. One thing I wish, if those owner of this club have children same one day same thing happens to them read more

This is definitely a great place been going there since the 80's it can be termed a local bar but I wouldn't use dive bar even in a nice context. Since SUPERSTORM Sandy the owners did s great job of upgrading we go regularly are friendly with all the great staff just a terrific place to go for atmosphere , well priced drinks good live music and DJ's anyone calling it a dive bar go there on a Sat nite during summer good looking, well dressed people having a great time, I'm going tonight!! read more

3 out of my 5 friends got laid on a Saturday night.... if that doesn't say anything I don't know what will.

worst establishment ever. bouncer denied me and my friends without even iding us because we asked for a garbage. we had tickets for an even at 12, arrived at 12:30 and we were told they didn't open for another ten minutes. the place was also empty and the bouncer yelled ew at us as we were walking away. won't even refund us our tickets. read more

I wish i could give this place no stars. We had 10 people for my bachelorrette party. My best friend talked to Tom Sueta about a VIP for us. Although he did get back to her, he never put us on the list and employees kept moving us around to talk to different people just for us to find that out. To top it off the staff was incredibly rude. The bartenders had attitude and said they didn't have any of the drink specials they were promoting or a lot of the beers. We left and spent a total of $5. Unfortunately, we were looking to spend upwards of 1k. read more

Great club. Awesome dance music in the main room, a chill outdoor venue to walk around and drink amidst a beautiful summer evening. This place packs HOTTIES, so many good looking girls here. If you are single and in your 20's def come check out the headliner in neptune. Be sure to bring a backup id and make sure everything is legit, they do not play around. I saw a military guy not get in because all he had was his military id, they demanded a current driver's license! Come prepared. drinks are reasonable, 5 dollar beers, 8 dollar mixed drinks, standard for the jersey shore. An all in all good time, avoid this place at all costs on a memorial day weekend or 4th of july as they pack it too much and it is quite uncomfortable, and there are numerous fights that break out because of the sardine-like atmosphere. read more

My niece planned her 25th bday party for 7/1/18@ The Oasis Pool & Day Spa in Neptune NJ. On arrival the staff was totally nasty and rude,very unwelcoming . The gentleman that originally set the party up was no where to be found. This establishment is very racist to BLACK people. I believe they have forgotten,we did have a BLACK President for two terms,however we now have TRUMP. I guess they decided to behave just as he does. They claimed they couldn't find the guest list. Eventually they found it. This place.get negative stars. The price changed from $500 to $2000, when they noticed our skintone. Very rude. You turned away the wrong,black educated family. You tried to ruin our day,.The gentleman at the door with the black hat and tshirt was awful. Ty for trying to ruin our day. Stay away from here if you skin is beige or darker. read more
