Awesome breakfast and lunch grille serving any type of bacon imaginable. Brought one of my allied business professionals with me who just loved it. We both love good local eateries. Service was excellent and meal was memorable. But remember, this is a cash only type establishment. Do stop in and try the bacon sampler.

Obsessed... if you love bacon, if you love bananas bread French toast or a proper jersey shore breakfast sandwich... come here! Sit outside, smell the sea air and pop over to the adorable gift shop across the street for a local Kombucha!

This place has it all and it's a hidden gem! Whether you're a full-timer in Long Branch or visiting, the food, ambience and staff make this a great place to go! THEY CATER AMERICAN, ITALIAN, INDIAN AND OTHER FOODS AND SERVE-UP GREAT BREAKFAST, LUNCH AND DINNERS! The food is reasonably priced and Fran, the owner, has been in the business for 30 years. She wants everyone to leave happy! They are open 7 am to 2 pm year round, and, starting 6/6/25, they'll be open on Friday evenings from 5:30 pm - 9:30 pm (BYOB). There's outdoor seating in two areas! Being a block from the beach, it's great because it's got a beachy, classy-yet-down-to-earth vibe! The BEST mashed potatoes and stuffed pork chops I've ever had was from this place for their evening meals! One gets a soup or salad, entree homemade dessert! They also have all of the usual offerings! Try this place! You will NOT be disappointed! The staff are friendly and fun! They also get your order for to-go orders, accurate!

Why anyone in the area would go to a place like Turning Point or Amy's when you have Beach Grille as an option is beyond me. Everything you get at BG's is fresh and tasty. There is a crazy number of offerings for lunch and breakfast and service is always top notch. Fran and her team are friendly, accommodating and the food is very reasonably priced. BG's is my "go-to" local place, and I highly recommend it.

The best little local breakfast shop. He staff is kind, the food is great (they have a lot of gluten free options too) and they really do break the norm of service to make sure you’re comfortable

So much delicious bacon! The sampler is wonderful as is the fresh fruit waffle! The shrimp and grits were lovely and the omelette with delightful veggies! I've been here twice and it has amazing flavors and wonderful waitstaff. Be careful though, it's cash only!

Fran and her staff were a pleasure to work with on a recent catering order! The food was delicious! Presentation was lovely and she made sure to include some gluten free items as well.

A very quaint friendly restaurant only locals know about! Indoor and outdoor seating available. Beautiful day to sit outside for breakfast, We had their salmon loaded on a biscuit instead of a bagel and eggs Benny. So yumm. Definitely going back there to try their lunch menu.
