Located in North Brunswick on Route 1 North. This place was very nice inside. It was all wood interior (like a ski lodge). Plenty of TV's including a giant projection TV at one end of the bar. The food was very good. They even gave free pizza at halftime (actually served in the 2nd quarter). The service was very good. Might be tough to beat this year.

Located in Freehold, Not a bad place to go to watch the game, Good Food, Decent Service, 13 TV's, alittle too smokey. But nothing to separate it from the pack.

Located in West Long Branch on Wall Street. The is the old Larchwood. They did a great job remodeling this place. The bar had plenty of seats. They even had some high tops around the one side. Tables were available too. 5 TV's including 1 large plasma TV on the Wall. Service was good and the food was above average. Wingers were hot and Burgers well delicious (owned by the guy who owns the Celtic Cottage) Nice place - unexpected knowing what the Larchwood was like.

Located in Howell Township on Rt. 33. This place was closed for a long time due to a fire. They re-opened earlier this year. They did a great job in renovating this place. They kept the old feel of a log cabin but really updated it. They have 8 TV's on the inside of the Bar, it was difficult to see most of them from the ends of the bar. You couldn't see any TV's from the tables around the Bar. NOT GOOD.

The food was very good. Pizza and Wings were half price during the game and Domestic Beer was $2.00 a pint. Bar maids dressed like REFS. Good atmosphere, good food and excellent prices.

Route 9 South in Howell
Great Start for the new season. From the outside it looks like your typical Liquor Store with a Bar Attached. But when you get inside you find that the liquor store is really a seperate room. The bar area was very nice. Plenty of TV's to view the game. The bartender was very nice. They have 25 cent wings during the game. They were very good (haven't had any this good in a while) He recommended that we try the burgers. He said that the Asbury Park Press rated them one of the best in the Shore. I would say they were right. Great place to watch the game with some friends.

Located in Parlin, this is an old roadhouse bar turned into a sports bar. They had plenty of TV's although many of them were postioned poorly. We got 5 seats at the corner of the bar and had a pretty good view of the small TV's behind the bar. The food was pretty good. Tommmy and I had nachos with chili, it was better than average. Frank and Tommy had burgers - they were good. Big Tom had the Ribeye Sandwich and Coach Tom had the Sirlon Steak Sandwich both were very good. The beer was cheap and cold. The facilities were old and not particularly clean. What's up with the bathroom!!!!!

Located in Pt. Pleasant Beach on Randal Street. The Broadway Bar & Grill offers a nice old tavern style atmoshpere. They had a decent crowd for a Monday Night. Many of the patrons were fisherman. The Bar was good size with okay views of TV's situated around the outside walls of the Bar. The food was pretty good. Frank and Tom Split some nacho's. They were good but the chili could have been hotter(temperature wise). Big Tom had his usual Rare Burger and was pleased with it. The wings were excellent. Frank had a chicken alfredo dinner that he said was delicious. Service was very good.

Located in Pt. Pleasant on Route 35, just over the Railroad Tracks. It looks like an old Cape Cod house from the street. Inside it is an old style bar (rustic wood decor) The have a giant projection screen TV in the main bar area. However there really aren't many seats that have a good sight line. They did have quite a few TV's in the dinning area and bar that gave us a pretty good view of the game. Food was better than average. "NO SPECIALS" The waitress was nice. Nice place to go eat but nothing special for a Monday Night Game.

They just opened last Wednesday and the place looks great inside. The Bar had plenty of bar seats,tables, and 10 TV's. Unfortunately the place was very crowded (to be expected 1st week open). The hostess was very accomadating. She got us a 2 tables in the dinning room right by one of the few TV's in the Dinning Room. We had a big crew tonight (6 crew members and 4 additional fans tagging along). We ordered drinks and appetizers (2 wings, 2 nachos). The wings were excellent. The nachos were plentiful but could have used a little more chili on them. Tom had onion soup, Frank had potato soup and both were delicious. We ordered some burgers and Buffalo Chicken Sandwich's. They were both great choices. The Desserts were huge and and very tasty. The service was very good, in fact they earned a serveral bonus points for watching out for Rich's Nuts (he's allergic). The only drawback here was we couldn't hear the game. Kimberely the manager came by to make sure we were happy with the service - Nice touch. This was by far the best place so far this year.

Located on Main Street in Keansburg. My first impression was this looked like a decent place. Plenty of seats at a large bar. A huge projection Screen TV (16 feet across). Free pool tables. My first hint that things would go downhill from there was when I asked the Barmaid if the kitchen was open. She was unable to give us a straight answer. Apparently the cook had left the building and his return was in question. When he arrived he said that he would get us what we wanted. If we only know how long it would take and how bad the food would be we would have left. Wings took 1 hour and 10 minutes to arrive. Perhaps that was because it took the cook that long to shoot the seagulls on the roof and pluck them. A hint this might be true was the remenants of feathers on several on the wings. Coach Tom ordered a Well Done Burger. When it arrived in looked like it was burned pretty bad. But when the coach bit into it the middle was still raw. The coach was pissed. The barmaid asked what was wrong and Coach Tom told her she shrugged her shoulders and threw the burger in the garbage and walked away. Left it on the bill too!!! So much for customer service. I don't think we have been this disappointed in a place in many years. Probably the worst place we ever rated. Not counting those we walked out on before even ordering.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE

Located in Toms River at the intersection of Hooper Ave and Fisher Blvd. The Bar was pretty big with plenty of seats with lots of TV's. They even had a big screen TV in the dinning area which also had plenty of seats. They normally would have gotten bonus points for that but the picture quality wasn't very good. We started our with one waitress but she handed us off to Brittany. She took great care of us. The wings were the best we have had so far this year. They also had chili on the menu. Extra large bowl--very good. TOO BAD we didn't know about the Half Time Buffet (pizza and a 6 foot sub). We ate too much before Half Time. The desserts were excellent including the giant Apple Cobler with Ice Cream that Coach Tom wolfed down on his own. Nice place to watch the game.

We had to call an audible when our first pick CASA COMIDA was closing when we got there. Rich was flagged 15 yards for a personal foul for lack of research. Well at least Zachary's didn't let us down. The food was very good (pizza is excellent) and the sight lines were pretty good. However we have been here twice before and therefore we were more critical than normal.

Located in Hazlet on Route 35 North, behind the Duncan Donuts. This is part of a small strip mall. From outside I thought we were in trouble. But inside the bar was pretty nice. Great sight lines from the bar and the few high tops behind the bar. No TV's in the restuarant area. The food was pretty good too. Frank and Coach Tom had a nice waitress. However Big Tom and Steven had a poor waitress. This explained why our ratings were totally different. Chili was good and the burgers were better than average. The menu however was expensive. They even had a 52 ounce steak on it for $49.00.
Rating: 3.05 Frosty Mugs

Located in Brick/Lakewood on Route # 88. Very small bar with limited menu. No specials during the game. The menu said that they had Black Angus Burgers. They looked and tasted more like frozen burgers from BJ's. On top of that a big old local sat down at the table next to us an lit us a big old cigar. Not a good place to watch the game.

Located in Red Bank right near the Train Station. This place is a nice place to go and watch the game. They had plenty of TV's (although most were small). The food was good but not great. The service was lacking. Only two barmaids and they had to handle the bar and the tables.

Located on 2nd Ave. in Long Branch near Brighton Ave.
The bar area is very small. It is very dark inside. Sight lines were pretty good. They had 3 27" TV's hanging from the ceiling and 1 Big Screen TV in the corner. Food was okay. Mostly just burgers and appetizers on the menu. Burgers were good but nothing special. The Poppers and Wings were better than average but they were over priced (6 wings for $5.50). There were some interesting characters sitting at the bar including one guy who had an imaginary friend he kept talking to. The bartender had zero personality.

Located in Pt. Pleasant on Rt. 88. This is a nice place. Lots of seats at the bar and plenty of tables around the bar. The Sight lines we okay, they have plenty of TV's they just needed to be place better and maybe a few could have been bigger. The food was good and they did have a half time buffet. The service was just okay. Plenty of good looking fans watching the game.

This place is located on Rt 18 in Old Bridge. The Bar was small and cramped. They have an upstairs area with tables and lots of TV's, unfortunately that section is only open on Sundays. The Bar had one 32" TV's in the corner and 4 TV's behind the bar on Shelves(only 3 worked). The food was very good. Everything was $2.50 each. We had bar pies, wings, poppers and Steven had a Burger. Beer was cheap too!

Located on the, you guessed it, West side of Rt 88 Bridge in Pt. Pleasant. This is an old house that was converted into a Tavern style Restaurant. Small bar with prime seats available. Tables on one side and a dining area next to the back of the bar. Plenty of TV's to view even in the Dinning Area. The Food was pretty good and the prices were okay. Service was good but not great.

Located on Kingsley Avenue in Asbury Park. Not much to look at from the outside. But they have a nice big bar and a seperate dining area. The menu was definitely for a Dinner Crowd. Not much in the way of appetizers. Althought Rich and Tom said the Clams Casino was great. NO WINGS was a major strike against for the COACH. Only two TV's that were poorly situated didn't help either. NOt a great place to watch the game which is probably why we were the only people in the joint.

Located in Colts Neck on Route 34 in the Beckers Hardware Shopping Center. Small Bar area with Plenty of TV's(including a big screen) but few good seats. The food was very good.

This weeks pick was originally suppose to be the Tropical Pub in Belmar. But it was closed. So Rich "The Critic" called for an audible. Jack's is a great place to watch the Game. They have a nice bar with plenty of seats and TV's. They also have a big screen TV for the people sitting at the tables to watch the game. That is were we sat. Free Hot Dogs during the game and a half time buffet that included Wings, Penne Pasta, and Sausage and Peppers. The only drawback was the lack of service. No Waitresses for the table area. Bartenders were good but very busy. If not for the lack of service it would have been rated much higher.

Located in the Hyatt in New Brunswick this could easily have been our number one pick of the year. They had plenty of TV's with good views. Even had a giant projection TV (8' X 8')
with plenty of tables to sit at. The Bar could have been bigger and maybe the TV's at the bar could have been better placed but all in all they should have scored really high.

The problem was their limited menu and the even worse service. We had to "flag" down our waitress every time we needed something. Otherwise she wasn't coming by. Frank and Tom had burgers and they were okay. Steven had chicken and it was okay. But I should have been tipped off when the waitress couldn't answer my question about the Mini Cheeseburger Bites. They were just AWEFULL. I also asked for chili and what I got didn't look anything like chili. So I was still really hungry and figured a big dessert could make up for everything. So I FLAGGED down the waitress and popped the BIG QUESTION "What kind of Desserts do you have"

Answer: "NO DESSERT!!!" and then she was gone in a flash. They don't have dessert in a HYATT. You have got to be kidding me.

Our First Stop this year was Clancy's Tavern. This is owned by the same people who own Kelly's Tavern. The place was okay, but certainly not up to the Standard set by Kelly's. Menu is very similar to Kelly's but the food just didn't seem as good.

Nick the Stomach made his return from College tonight
Located right on the water in the Highlands. This is a very classy looking place. The bar was beautiful. With 4 large TV's in the Middle and 4 addtional TV's in the corners of the Bar Room. There really weren't many people there but the bartender check with the kitchen and they said they would keep the kitchen open for us. Good thing they did. We were very hungry and the food was very good. Frank and Nick had burgers, Big Tom had Pasta in Vodka Sauce (great) and Coach Tom had the Chicken Quesadeas (the best he's ever had). Service was excellent. The Bartender told us they have been open for alittle over 1 year. Great Place to go for Dinner, but it does get very busy in the warmer weather.

Week #3 - Tumulty's Pub
Located on George Street in New Brunswick
This is an old restaurant with a very small bar on the main floor. It had about 10 Bar Stools and one 27 Inch TV. The old architecture was cool. The place was empty so we had no problem getting a seat at the bar. The barmaid was a young girl probably just out of college. She was okay but not very friendly. The food was very good. In fact that was the only thing that saved the night. Rich said the Tuna Steak was great. I had nacho's and a french dip sandwich, both were very good. Steven said the burger was good too! As far as the sight lines go the TV was on one end of the bar and the sound was turned off (not good). I would say this is probably a good place to go out for dinner. But I wouldn't go back to watch the games.

Located in Brick, right next to the Route 70 Bridge. This is a very nice place. They have plenty of seats at the Bar. The had at least 5 plasma screen TV's and a few regular TV's. We had to sit on the field level(tables) due to the fact that we had some Rookies with us(Tommy and Matt D). They had a $1.00 dollar menu. It included excellent wings(12), chicken fingers (S-Dub's favorite), small hamburgers, and nachos. Everything was very good. The waitress was very nice, she even stayed late to take care of us. This is a very good place to watch the games. It just did have that extra push to make it to the top. The game didn't help either.
