Bahrs Landing Is Still Standing | Highlands, New Jersey
Bahrs Landing Restaurant is a New Jersey legend
Bahrs Landing is 97 years old this year, and it is amazing because it sustained considerable damage in October 2012 from Hurricane โSuperstormโ Sandy, which destroyed many other businesses in the area.
It is open year-round, and the owners were determined to re-open quickly:
But somehow it survived, and it will celebrate its 100th Birthday in 2017!
We love eating there, and staring out at the water and Sandy Hook!
I love the food, especially my favorite, Peach Melba! It is so delicious. ๐
My husband heartily recommends the crab cakes. They were named the best crab cakes in New Jersey.
Right next to Bahrโs is Mobyโs Lobster Deck, serving seafood and ice cream! They are open from May to October with 100% outdoor dining!
You can even take a ferry from New York City to visit and have a great meal!
To read more about Bahrโs Landing and Mobyโs Deck, check out their website!
To see another Jersey Shore community recovering from Sandy, check out Sea Bright Rising.
Thanks for visiting New Jersey Memories!

It looks fascinating – I bet it is full of character inside. Interesting to see the yachts "moored" on racks!
New Jersey Memories
Yes, it is indeed full of character. They play interesting 1920s-1930s music, too.

Ok, I'm wanting some crab cakes from Bahr's even though I've never been there or done that. mmmm, perhaps I should put this on my "bucket list."
