If you’re going to spend a day at the Jersey shore, you’re going to need a solid meal.

After all, you’re about to spend a day dodging kids throwing balls, people from out of state sitting way too close to you, and - in rare cases - umbrellas that have gotten loose.

One new-ish restaurant (they only opened about a year ago) in Point Pleasant is a perfect place for you to have a hearty meal before facing your fellow beach-goers.

According to The Local Girl:

A long-time family dream of owning a restaurant and a massive love for a pre-beach breakfast stop inspired the creation of Pop’s Corner. Owner Brian Neiman named the diner after his father-in-law, who is  best known as ‘Pops.’

Just imagine completing your beach day with some of what they have to offer…

And don’t worry if you have a problem with gluten: both waffles and pancakess can be made gluten-free. Also if you’re ordering a sandwich or burger, there’s a gluten-free bun substitution you can ask for.

Breakfast, Brunch, & Lunch
Monday - Sunday: 8 AM - 3 PM

Dinner
Thursday - Sunday: 5 PM - 9 PM

Bakery
