Food is worth the visit. Hit or miss on service. Some members of the service team are true professionals. Others are very rough and completely rude. It's not a rough crowd and does not warrant that behavior from the staff at 4:00 pm on a Sunday. Not to mention the awful comments a female staff member was making about customers as they were leaving. ( for other patrons to hear) Miracle pub, we have been visiting you for years; you can do better with your staff. read more

It was nice outside the other night so we decided to be outside for dinner. Our waitress was great, awesome service. We ordered the nachos to start, they were great . I got a coors light and then ordered the southwest wrap. It was delicious and filling. The menu is pretty big so I gotta try more things next time. Also gotta sit inside as well. The bathrooms are really small like 2 people max. Plenty of parking, the place itself looks really cool too, definitely recommend if you're in Toms River! read more

Small but a a great place to get a decent meal at a fair price. Great neighborhood place and would recommend!!

We have never had anything that wasn't great in bar food. Mixed drinks are great. Even though crowded a lot never really had to wait long and staff has always been great read more

Lots of folx like this place. Not me . Thought it was a friendly family oriented place. I encountered a rough crowd and nasty bouncers. Kind of SSH ish . read more

Our local favorite! May be the best spot in Toms River for food, drinks and a comfortable vibe. You know a place is good when there's everyone from toddlers to seniors dining. And always busy. Burgers, apps and flatbreads are awesome, but the grilled cheese with tomato and bacon are my favorite. Kids love the pork roll fries. The menu is huge. We tried the brunch and October fest events as well...all great! They have lottery and packaged goods, too (so if you're on a date and don't want to watch sports, get scratchoffs lol). Whether you're with the family, with friends or on a date, the Miracle is a must try! read more

The Miracle Pub - Cabin in the woods burger and a Rueben - Pubs Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

Love going to the Miracle Pub! Great food, staff and atmosphere. It's very clean and comfortable.

This place is always super busy and now I see why! Food and drinks were great, wait staff are super attentive and our waitress Ashley was so friendly and made our experience great! The menu has a wide variety of options. You also get a basket of popcorn while you're waiting which was my favorite part. This place is super lively and overall a very fun place to grab a drink. I definitely recommend making a reservation beforehand. read more

This place sucks. They let under age kids drink here and not people of age paying the price. I drank 3 beers here and ate an ENTIRE WRAP and fries and the bar tender said "you are cut off, even though you did nothing wrong". This place has poor management/ownership and this is the outcome of it. Just lost my business and many more. #MiracleIsDead #Travesty read more

First of all, you know this place is special as soon as you walk through the door. Why? Because you seen an array of beer marketing signs and trinkets that adorn the walls. Really cool! Plus on one side of the establishment is a bar and the other is a package goods store. 2 for 1! Trusting the vibe you will be implored to sit down at the bar where you will be greeted with a basket of fresh popped corn (big time stuff). Grab yourself an iced cold beer and order some wings (best in the greater Toms River area). In fact, while the Buffalo wings are good, I could make the argument that the garlic Parmesan wings are the best of that version that I've had. They are covered in a buttery garlic sauce which really enhances the flavor. Highly recommend a stop at Miracle Pub if you are in the neighborhood. read more

Good food, large portions, great atmosphere, great service. There are tv's everywhere with multiple games on the tv's

Always a good meal at the Miracle Pub. Good wings, really like the prime rib melt, and beer is always fresh! Popcorn to die for too!

I have been going to this place for years since moving to the area but time to move on. Food is good for moderate bar fair but just flat out tired of the BS attitude of the bartenders. $6 for a Miller light and they act like they are doing you a favor to bring you another after walking by you 10 times with an empty drink. Sorry I even left a tip for such crap service with a frown that never changes. The world must truly be desperate for bartenders to keep some of these folks employed. I'm done with this place! read more

I have never heard of a restaurant turn customers away for ordering take out. every time I call to order take out they say no. Never giving them business again terrible cust service read more

This unique place never disappoints! The food is pub fare at its best. The walls are filled with retro beer decor like in the 60's. Really cool. Wait staff is ALWAYS experienced & on their game, and today Alex was terrific. Package goods too. You won't be disappointed and it's a place you'll not soon forget ;-) read more

They have great apps and food.. I recommend the steak bites..Awesome neighborhood bar!

Great great food, always a friendly staff..worth the wait ..haven't had anything we didn't like. One of my favorites are the cheese steak rolls, omg so good..everything is always exactly what you ordered! Will be back.. read more

Becoming our favorite place to enjoy good pub food in a vibrant eclectic setting. We had previously eaten during COVID period and were very impressed by the way the facility followed and exceeded the rules in place. Spoke volumes about ownership. Had lunch today. The pastrami Reuben was off the charts good. My wife had a vegetarian wrap which she loved. We were greeted warmly on arriving and promptly seated on high tops right next to the beer refrigerator. At a different stage of my life that would possibly e a recipe for trouble . Despite the setting we were immediately waited on by a lovely friendly staff member. Immediately felt very welcome. Even the Jersey City native gentleman ( could have been an owner) restocking the beer refrigerator greeted us and was very cordial. The tv array had my head spinning- golf, Eurocup, subway series, track and other choices. What a dilemma Simply said we loved the whole vibe ( reminded us of Cheers where everyone knows your name) and the restaurant/ liquor store mix. Clearly a great local family place. Just wish you were a little closer to my home. Maybe We need to move over by you. read more

I've lived in Ocean county since 2013 and have been told that I needed to come to this pub. Finally got there this week. So good we went two nights in a row. read more

The best food around it's great! I enjoy everything on the menu. Not happy with the new calamari they cut them in strips. Not a fan but still cooked perfect! read more

The Miracle Pub - The bar during COVID 19 - Pubs Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

Love everything about the place. Service is great. Drinks are awesome and the food is good as well. Always friendly.

We went here a few times during the pandemic and sat outside. Food was great, they did a great job of accommodating patrons. We went back Friday to the open restaurant. This place is a favorite local spot - great bar, great food, friendly staff, and don't forget the popcorn (complimentary). You will not be disappointed by anything on the menu. The cheesesteak wrap is my favorite. Rubens are to die for - and Buffalo Chicken is yum! read more

Don't get to comfortable because they kick you out after your "time" is up ... go down the street to the office lounge where they leave you alone and let you enjoy your time read more

Excellent sports bar with lots to look at and enjoy and reminisce. Good pub food, excellent service and clean rest room. read more

The Miracle Pub - Inside entrance Miracle Pub - Pubs Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

Totally disarming. Doesn't look like much from outside, you go in there's a good sized liquor store with a nice bar and good space for dining. Staff here is top notch. Truly the highlight here. Makes you look forward to coming back again. So friendly and accommodating. Really such a pleasant experience and just great people here. Food is very good. An excellent choice for just about any mood you're in. High quality bar/pub fare. Definitely will become one of my staples. read more

This is a throwback, divey feeling kind of spot. You know it's popular with the locals, there wasn't an empty seat at the bar at 3pm midweek. Yes, you read that right. It's a very low key, laid back type of vibe. When I say divey, that is not meant as an insult, they have all kinds of cool decor. Plenty to choose from on the menu.The service and food were quite good. We will be back. read more

Talk about a great turn around story, this is it. For years this dive of a pub featured a few old men and a liquor store that everyone knew. Few people ate there and although it was a landmark ( or blight) in town, it needed some new blood. Enter Mike Browner and family. The entire place turned around and it started with the food. Better than good bar food at reasonable prices. Beers you can afford to drink- unlike so many chain bars you see too much of everywhere, and great and friendly service. There is a dart league on Monday nights and football packs a crowd as well as just about any other sporting event. Sunday brings a very reasonable brunch. All in all, this is what a neighborhood bar and restaurant should be. Well done! read more

The Miracle Pub - Always a good time - Pubs Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

First time here. Stopped in for a couple of beers, & to check out the place. This is one of those, don't judge a book by its cover, places. From the outside it's any other neighborhood bar. Once inside, you can see it's more like a Cheers type of atmosphere, where the locals gather. The bartenders are friendly & attentive, as was the doorman. The decor is regular bar fare; save for the signed Brett Michaels guitar encased in a display box on the wall near the rest rooms. As for the rest rooms, I can only comment on the men's room. It's tight quarters, with only 1 stall & 1 urinal & a sink. It's small enough to have to wait. For a decent sized bar, this is a drawback. The menu goes far beyond the standard bar fare, with dishes from beef, chicken, pork, & fish. Along with some interesting sides like, pulled pork bbq egg rolls. I didn't eat there, but there were a lot of people eating, so that has to say something about the quality. They also have, fish & chips, so I'm looking forward to trying it. The only caveat being, they only have the tall tables & stools, so, probably not that easy for everyone to navigate. They also have a few t.v.'s which were showing games, & I think they have game day specials. They also have a take-away menu, which I saw a few people come in for, so, again, that has to speak for the food quality. I'll update my experience once I eat from there. All in all, I'd recommend it for a night out, & am looking forward to going back. It's a casual place for a few drinks, dining, & even a date. That is, if I can get someone to go on a date with. Hopefully, I'll be able to update that scenario soon. Takers? read more

We had a really nice time having lunch here. The tenders and sliders were delicious, and the waffle fries are super crispy. We will be back!! read more

Great food and service. I would recommend it highly. But not after work to crowded. We got a gift card and it covered the bill.

If this place didn't have flat screen tvs on the wall you wouldn't know what year it was. There are some people who never grow up and I think they all congregate here. Picture a bunch of 50 somethings fist-pumping and yelling "Teenage Wasteland" and then segueing into Funkytown. Now, don't get me wrong, I the music I grew up with. I just don't want to be with the people who don't get that it's not 80s anymore. Food? Drink? Didn't bother. The overgrown Jersey Shore frat boys get all the attention from the staff. read more

Ok today I just wanted to go out to eat before food shopping . Iam solo. Most places have no seats or reserve the table for more then four. It's hard trying to go out alone right now with the co vid thing . The person who sat me got me , and I was so grateful. The menu was a pleasant surprise. What a variety of foods . I ordered the steak bites . Them came cooked to my temperature med rare, another wonderful surprise. Most places burn them . The side sauces were teriyaki and a creamy mild wasabi sauce . Both perfect . I highly suggest going here or at least looking up the menu . You will not be disappointed. Lots of family's eating dinner as well . This is the perfect hidden gem . Great !! read more

Miracle is the BEST! It took me 4 years to finally go in and eat there. Now I can't stop going. We go multiple times a week and the food, staff and drinks are amazing. The menu is huge with so many options. Breakfast is awesome too! The cheers bar of TR! read more

Sat outside. Not too busy. Good calamari. They do it in strips instead of rings. Always better! Got it with the bang bang shrimp sauce! Reuben egg rolls wee soggy AF, the fryer should have been hotter. Food was okay but there were 2 of us initially and we were there just under an hour and explained our wives would like to meet us. He said he'd set us up but mentioned we were there an hour already and they had a 2 hour max table time and the clock was ticking. He spoke to the head waitress and we could see she was giving push back. They never even thanked us or even made eye contact as we left. Puzzies. She informed us she couldn't reseat us with our wives. This is crap customer service and worse business acumen. We spent over 60 bucks before tip and surely would have at least doubled that. So we told them forget it and we'd go elsewhere. So they lost at least another 60 plus gratuity and we'll never go there again. There are Way 2 Many places around here to spend our money and that's what we'll do. We're locals so you just lost year round customers, not tourists. So good luck with the current corona crap in this challenging environment. read more

Great setup in the front and service and food on point. They have paper menus and a qr reader for contactless viewing. Draft beers, utensils and plates all plastic and have a nice evening out. read more

We wanted to go for dinner since the food and service is usually pretty good...as we walked in they accused my husband of being there for lunch and said he couldn't be there twice in one day? My husband doesn't even work in the same county which took us back a little bit. We had one mixed drink and got "flagged" for having ONE cocktail. We haven't been there in months! The managers customer service skills would've been better at Walmart. What a shame for a place we used to enjoy. read more

We were in the pub at the bar and asked for 2 vodka and cranberry. The barmaid splashed a little vodka in the glass. I said, that's a pretty stingy pour. She snapped at me and said, what did you just say. I repeated, that's a stingy pour, she said, well that's our pour and called another bar maid over who verified the pour. I'm calling the ABC on them. This is an illegal practice and they deserve to be reported. Another customer told me that if you order anything other than a beer in there, they cheat you. Pretty sad place. read more

Good place for bar type food. It's always crowded and kind of dark for me. But if you can hit this place at the right time their food is very enjoyable. Not only that it's literally a block or two from my house LOL! read more

The new. And best place to go is the office Lounge where the sushi is the best and so are the waitresses. read more

The best food and lively atmosphere. Ashley was our server and had a great sense of humor.
