Mantoloking Road Pub

Love the staff and food! I recommend to all my friends. I highly suggest trying the Vish Wrap and the Justin!

Has great possibility… needs TLC… entrance doesn’t have any lights on… wings are great… chile good… cheesesteak good… Calamari not good… service isn’t bad servers try real hard

My favorite watering hole, sports bar with lots of televisions to watch whatever games are on, friendly staff and some really good pub fare… the bar pies are awesome!

The blackened Tilapia was so delicious. I hope they keep it in the menu. I can’t wait ti go back and get it again.

Love MRP… Great staff great food and cold beer! Hands-​down the best pizza in Ocean County!!!

This is the type of bar you can go to with a ton of friends, drink, be really loud and not be judged for acting like fools :) We’ve had random bar food here, and I think I remember it being good!

Nice cozy atmosphere for a Beer (great selection too). Decent Pub food and they usually have some good nightly dinner specials (esp. the Blackened Talapia). Appetizer quality is average.

This place has a decent selection of draft beers and good prices. Went with a high school friend to catch up on a Tuesday night and it was a fun time. The bartenders were attentive and friendly. The food was decently priced and looked tasty but I can’t comment on it personally.
The only minor buzzkill was an obnoxiously drunk hillbilly jersey lady screaming and cursing her head off while she was playing the game in the back (the long table you slide metal pucks on). It was really annoying but nobody in the bar said anything to her for about 2 hours until she left. She seemed the type to stab you in the neck with a broken Tabasco bottle.

Good cold beer and a good burger! Nice neighborhood place. Friendly bartenders and a lot of TVs. Friendly place good service. I’ll be back.

I’ll begin this review by saying that I haven’t had a full-​on dining experience here. We came here one night wanting to watch a sporting event (don’t own a TV) and it quickly became a new favorite haunt. Great, cozy environment — not too bright, knick-​knacky stuff hanging in the bar and on the walls, plenty of good TVs all around the bar, always a seat. It can get loud at times, but we’re in it for the sports bar atmosphere. BONUS: We went in for the game and beer, but were immediately craving a pizza when we saw them atop tables of patrons all around — they looked GOOD, and did *not* disappoint. For real, their pizza is surprisingly delicious! (Surprising for a «pub» — it’s legit NJ pizza — fresh ingredients and tasty sauce. Had the plain and a mushroom topping, both were excellent.) Solid albeit somewhat basic beer selection, but I’ve been enjoying a Harpoon IPA on tap. So… now we come here when a good game is on for cold beer, awesome pizza, and friendly bartenders. Again, can’t speak to the dining area, the full menu, or the wait staff there — but… yeah!

Been here a few times recently and the food is outstanding. Wings are terrific, burgers are better than any of the corporate burger places popping up around here, and they make these delicious bar pies. Also, it’s pleasant that this place doesn’t get ridiculously over crowded. They play good music too

We stopped in to grab a burger for lunch. Decent service, good food and friendly attmosphere. Great place to grab a bite to eat, have a beer and watch a game.

Average food and shady people

This is a nice neighborhood bar, but I wouldn’t go for the food. Have met friends there several times and have yet to eat anything I would recommend. On the othe hand they mix a mean martini! Very friendly place.

The only reason why I’m giving this place one star is because I couldn’t give them no stars. I have eaten here before; just at the bar, a bar pie (which was ok) and fried mushrooms (hard to mess up.) But today I was looking for a place nearby to have dinner with my mom to a place she’d never been before, and we decided to go there. Big mistake.
The sign outside said you could get 2 burgers for $ 9.99. Pretty good deal. So we go in and order drinks and I check out the menu. It states:
Try our burgers! Choose:
Hand-​molded beef
Hand-​molded turkey
Veggie
Chicken breast
All of these were priced at around 7.99. It was 8.99 if you got extras like bacon and cheese and stuff. So I ask the waitress if we can get the special for 9.99, but get extras like cheese, and she tells me its $ 1 more. Then I ask if I can get a turkey burger. I don’t like beef. Even tho I’m a huge foodie. I know, I’m weird. Moving on.
She tells me that the chef won’t do the «burger» special unless it’s a beef burger. I told her I was happy to pay extra for it if that was the problem, since all their burgers on the menu– beef, chicken, etc., are the same price.
She says «No, he won’t do it, they’ve been doing it a couple of years, and he just says it has to be beef. You can still order two burgers, but if one’s turkey and one’s beef you’ll both have to pay full price.» At 8.99. Apiece.
Hmmm. So I ask the waitress to please go in the back and ask how much it would be for me to get turkey instead. She comes back and says, «No. He won’t do it. Order something else instead.»
So I asked for our bill. I’m not spending my money– and more importantly, my calories– in a place where a chef is that unreasonable. Its 2010. Not everyone eats beef. You should cater to your customers. Plus, we’re in a recession. I figured any business you can get in a restaurant right now, you should take. It’s not like you’re in Manhattan. I would have happily paid extra money if that was the issue, but to have an extensive burger list, advertise 2 BURGERS (not just BEEF burgers) for $ 10 then expect us to pay $ 19 for two is ridiculous. I paid for my mom’s drink (which, admittedly was pretty good: a vodka and cranberry as a pint glass, and was mixed really well) and we walked out. Although I would rather support locally– owned places, we went to Carrabba’s instead, which had much more reasonably priced– and presumably, much tastier– food than the menu at this place.
Oh, and I just checked the online menu on the website. It is definitely older than the one I was given tonight– online the menu says 6.99 for wings and the menu tonight said 8.99! The rest of their menu was overpriced too.
